    Softcore History

    A podcast for the casual fan of history. The Wikipedia reader. The kids who grew up with a dad who watched the same 10 hours of World War II specials on The History Channel. Join Dan Regester, Rob Fox, and a weekly guest as they tastefully insert themselves into the past. The only thing we don’t show is our research.

    The Manliest Thing Any Man Has Ever Done Feb 03, 2025
    Show notes

    Throughout history, men have always complained that men from the past were WAY more manly, especially in Ancient Rome. And today we're talking about the one time that might have actually been undeniably true. The first hero of the Roman Republic, Mucius Scaevola, did something so astoundingly manly that it changed the course of Roman history forever.

    Fly Me To The North Pole, Balloon Man Jan 20, 2025
    Show notes

    In 1897, Swedish engineer and aeronaut Salomon August Andrée led two other men on a hot air balloon expedition to the North Pole that quickly went incredibly awry. After crashing their balloon in a literal no man's land, the three had to fend off the harsh elements, polar bears, and the decay of their own sanity for months before ultimately succumbing to their bitter demise. The entire misfortune was documented through journals and hundreds of photographs that were found decades later and serves as a cautionary tale to never trust a glory chaser.

    The Anti-Social Drunks Who Changed American History Jan 13, 2025
    Show notes

    What's the most important battle in American history? Gettysburg? D-Day? Saratoga? Nah. It's the Battle of St. Louis, a little-known Revolutionary War battle between St. Louis's drunken, anti-social citizens and a British and Indian force looking to take the Mississippi River for King George. The battle's outcome forever changed the course of history on the western half of the North American continent. For America. For Mexico. For Canada. For Indians. We break down the battle and explain its ramifications.

    When The Pope Went Full Goblin Mode Jan 06, 2025
    Show notes

    Pope Benedict IX is often regarded as one of the worst men to take the papal throne. He ascended to the chair of Saint Peter at the age of twenty in 1032 after his old man bought him the position and he proceeded to indulge in habitual sins of the flesh, theft, murder, and even sold his power to the highest bidder. Benny was pontiff three times over the stretch of 16 years, survived assassination attempts and coups, and turned the vatican into a brothel. Find out why many in the Catholic Church refer to him as "a demon from hell disguised in priest clothing."

    Rome’s “Real Man” Propaganda Sounds Just Like Ours Dec 30, 2024
    Show notes

    To fully end the Roman Republic and become Emperor Caesar Augustus, the young, wealthy patrician Octavian needed to get rid of the last man standing in his way: Mark Antony. But how could Octavian turn Rome against the Republic’s most decorated war hero and combat veteran — and Julius Caesar’s top lieutenant? Launch a propaganda campaign that said, “Actually, I’m a true strong Roman and this guy is a soft little b*tch now.” And… it worked! (In large part thanks to Mark Antony being awful at politics. And even worse, in love.)

    Blow Smoke Up Your Ass Dec 23, 2024
    Show notes

    The practice of rectal fumigation was a common medical practice in the 17th and 18th centuries that included tobbaco and smoke enamas to treat bowel obstruction, constipation, and even attempt to resusitate still born babies.

    The Father Of History Dec 16, 2024
    Show notes

    Herodotus was a Greek historian and geographer often regarded as the "Father of History" who detailed the Greco-Persian War and his explorations throughout the ancient world. Many peers of his time found his works to be greatly exaggerated, misunderstandings, or totally false. Modern historians have grown to appreciate his accounts of events and see him in a more positive light. Hate him or love him, Herodotus pioneered the entire field of History.

    America's Coolest War Crime Dec 09, 2024
    Show notes

    When the United States entered World War 1 no one was quite sure what to expect. What the Germans definitely didn't expect was a bunch of Doughboys armed with Winchester Model 97 pump-action shotguns -- aka Trench Brooms -- blasting gaping holes in their soldiers. The use of these shotguns became so infamous and terrifying that the Kaiser complained, officially, that using them was a war crime. We break down the real info behind these shotguns and how they were used in the First World War.
