July 25, 1775: Early Drafts of History

First off, let me note that sometime this week we cracked the 1,000-download mark, and we have you to thank for that, especially inasmuch as 40% of that took place in the last 30 days or so. We’re grateful that you’re giving us this little slice of your life each day. We’re also happy to see that the number of daily downloads has grown, slowly but surely, so consider yourself ahead of the curve. You’ve got bragging rights, my friend.

In yesterday’s episode, Mike teased the commandeering and re-outfitting of a British ship, but further research revealed that that took place on a different date, so we went with this short story plus my longer rant about historical documents.

Okay…it’s not so much a rant as it is a hissy fit.

It’s not even that. Look, just listen to it, all right?

    I just stumbled across this podcast series. I admire the craftsmanship, especially the dedication to daily releases. Check out my work. I’m taking a visual (video) approach and release once a week, on Fridays. Follow the Revolution! https://www.youtube.com/@RevolutionaryNewsWeekly
