We are back from our brief hiatus! We delve into the turbulent and violent life of Turd…Champ Ferguson, a notorious Confederate guerilla fighter during the American Civil War. Ferguson’s story is one of personal vendetta and relentless brutality, driven by a desire for revenge against Union forces and sympathizers. We explore Ferguson’s early life in the rugged mountains of Tennessee and his transformation from a farmer to a feared guerilla leader. Learn about the harrowing events that fueled his fury and led him to take up arms against his own neighbors, blurring the lines between soldier and outlaw. Through firsthand accounts and historical records, we unravel the complex motivations behind Ferguson’s bloody campaign. Was he a hero defending his homeland or a ruthless vigilante seeking personal retribution? Join us as we navigate the murky waters of loyalty, honor, and vengeance in the shadowy world of Civil War guerilla warfare. Tune in for an episode filled with suspense, historical intrigue, and a deeper understanding of the man who rode for revenge. We also have a new sponsor for this episode. Let's make it Civil Weird!!!
