Episode 0078—Mayflower Makeover Nov 06, 2020

Show notes

The founding of Plymouth Colony in 1620 religious colonists (Pilgrims) almost didn't happen for a number of reasons as the colonists faced many hardships and also found themselves not where they were originally intended to be.
How might things have different if the colony had settled in its original destination or not survived at all?

Show notes

Send a Message to the Team

Twice a year, around 70 countries have their citizens make an adjustment to their clocks. Whether you call it Daylight Saving (not plural) Time or Summer Time, it has an impact on the lives of those that live there--unless they don't have to change (see the episode for discussion).
So, how would things be different in a world with no twice-yearly mandated time change?

Episode 0074—Crashing The Bull Moose Party Oct 08, 2020

Show notes

Send a Message to the Team

In October 1912, Theodore Roosevelt survived an assassination attempt mere weeks ahead of the American election where Woodrow Wilson was elected. If Roosevelt had perished instead of survived, some historians would argue that William Howard Taft would have been reelected.
We explore that possibility with "Show Agitator" Chris Copolla returning for the ride.

On August 15, 1914, the Panama Canal opened to shipping traffic and permitted a shortcut savings thousands of miles of sailing for cargo moving around North and South America from ports around the world.
What would have been different in a world where there was no water shortcut across Central America?

On August 22, 1485, Richard III was defeated at the Battle of Bosworth Field marking the end of Plantegant rule and marking the start of the Tudor dynasty.
How would near-term English and world history have differed with no Henry VIII or Queen Elizabeth, all the outcomes of the rise of the Tudors?

In early September 1666, a substantial portion of London was burned in The Great Fire. Beyond the obvious impact on the appearance of the city, what other things might have been different if the fire had not been as devasting?
