History Happened Everywhere (HHE Podcast)

History Happened Everywhere (HHE Podcast) - There is a history podcast for just about everything. And I mean it. This delightful and entertaining podcast randomly generates a place, a time and a topic and then does a deep dive, to prove that interesting history has happened everywhere and not just the places that get covered by other mainstream outlets.

So what subjects have they covered in recent weeks by hosts Ryan Weir and Peter Goddard? Stories and fiction from Italy in the Renaissance, poo in Scotland in the 1700s and communism in Antarctica during the Triassic period. Yep. The podcast is littered with facts and has been intricately researched and full of interesting facts, such as that Antarctica has a population of about 5000 people, has no national anthem and can be so cold in parts that any exposed skin can get immediate frostbite.
