Foster the Past Jun 14, 2022

Show notes

A wealthy couple died leaving their young daughter orphaned. Lillith has no family to raise her. In their will, the couple tasked the Twilight Histories with finding her a good home in an alternate universe, one with family who can care for her.
A world has been discovered where she has such a family. But it is not a gentle world. In the 21st century, a solar flare wiped out all electronics on Earth and the United States crumbled. It is currently still in the early stages of rebuilding.
Your mission is to journey to this world and find Lillith a good home.

Time Travel is Easy, History is Hard May 12, 2022

Show notes

This is a tribute to Ancient Rome Refocused and a story about how the Twilight Histories came into being. You'll hear stories from the earliest days of history podcasting (2007-2010), and you'll learn how the Twilight Histories was formed from those early works of podcasting history... Hardcore History, The History of Rome and of course... Ancient Rome Refocused.
How do you create a podcast? How do you find your unique podcasting voice? How can you overcome those early failures? You'll discover the podcasting journey of Jordan Harbour from the Twilight Histories.
You'll also hear Episode 2 from Ancient Rome Refocused called Time Travel is Easy, History is Hard. This was the seminal work that led to the final form used by the Twilight Histories and it is an incredible honour to show it to you. It has long since been taken down. Thank you Rob Cain for allowing us to include it here.

Frozen Earth Apr 28, 2022

Show notes

The Earth is flung into deep space. Humanity must survive on a planet that's slowly freezing.
YOU are a scavenger exploring the surface for anything useful. But your batteries are empty and there is no sun for your solar panels. You are stuck, adrift on a sea of boiling oxygen on a world that's hurtling out of the solar system.

Frozen Earth was inspired by Chinese science fiction, and in particular the short story Wandering Earth by Cixin Liu. He also wrote Three Body Problem, which is excellent and has been turned into a fantastic audiobook book series.

Mongol America Apr 14, 2022

Show notes

Conquering Japan was supposed to be easy. It was a mop-up campaign, a simple wiping away of a few rump islands on the edge of the vast Mongol empire. But a great tsunami destroyed the Mongol fleet and tens of thousands of Mongols drowned.
One ship survived the tsunami. It was ejected out into the vast Pacific. With its masts and rigging destroyed, it was left to the whims of the currents and these took it straight across the open ocean. The ship was finally wrecked on some distant rainy coast...
