The Revisionist History Podcast

Though the saints never sought first place in anything during their lives, some inevitably hold the distinction of being "first" in one way or another. For this "Sundays with the Saints" episode, here is a short list of some saintly firsts.

In today's episode, we look at the most famous monarch in English history and debunk four myths about King Henry VIII.

Donald's Trump's attempt to become president again after losing the White House has only been attempted by six other ex-presidents in our history. In today's episode, we look at those other times.

In today's episode, we're looking once again at the American Revolution, but this time from a very different vantage point, one they never teach us about in school. Let's look at the colonists who remained loyal to the Crown.

In today's Tuesday Book Review, we look at a book about the Cold War era in Eastern Europe, one that covers a subject and events few textbooks mention.

Today's episode takes a brief look at what constitutes "popular" history and how it differs from academic history.

In today's Sundays With the Saints episode, we look at a saint who has, for several reasons, been largely forgotten today. This is a shame and needs to be corrected. Let's meet Pope John Paul I, the Smiling Pope.

In today's episode, we look at a myth that sprang up in Germany after World War I which directly led to the rise of Hitler and the Nazis: the myth of the "stab in the back."

The debate over naming US Army bases after Confederate generals should have ended with the recent long-overdue renaming of those bases. According to two presidential candidates, it hasn't.

We've all dealt with an increase in the revision of history over the past decade or so, but nothing compares to the claims coming out of North Korea.
