📌 Episode Description:

 

Welcome to History on the Margins – the podcast where we dig into the weird, the wild, and the wonderfully overlooked corners of history. And what better way to kick things off than with a teaser episode just in time for the start of college football season?

 

In this episode, we take you on a fast-paced ride through the strangest stories in college sports: from teams accidentally scoring on themselves, to mascots getting straight-up kidnapped, to games interrupted by wildlife, nudity, or good old-fashioned chaos.

 

Think of this as a hype reel – a sampler plate of absurdities – to get your adrenaline going for a full season of ridiculous, riveting, and rarely-told history.

 

Whether you’re a die-hard fan or can’t tell a field goal from a foul ball, trust us: you’ve never heard college sports history quite like this.

 

🔊 Why Listen:

•Perfect primer for college football season

•Laugh-out-loud storytelling meets real history

•Great for sports fans, trivia buffs, and lovers of oddball facts

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
