John Stark: The Hero of Bennington

<p>I’ve been looking forward to this one ALL SEASON. This guy is a hero in my homeland, John Stark may have grown up in the wilderness of New Hampshire and lived there his entire life but… He wrote and performed his greatest work in Vermont. Bennington, Vermont to be specific. Where he led a group of farmers and untrained rabble up against one of the fiercest units that fought on the side of the Loyalists in the American Revolution, the Hessian Dragoons. The story leading up to the Battle of Bennington on its own is super interesting though, he fought at Fort William Henry in Lake George, NY. He fought at Fort Ticonderoga, NY. He also took part in this little thing that happened in Massachusetts called Bunker Hill. ALL OF THAT pales in comparison to the importance of a battle he led in a field in Southern Vermont though… We beat them here today or Molly Stark Sleeps a Widow Tonight. God he was awesome. If you think I’m slightly biased, you’re absolutely right. Enjoy! </p><p><br></p>

Fritz Haber: The Monster That Fed The World

<p><strong>Fritz Haber: The Monster That Fed The World</strong></p><p>This week we cover a… Complicated man. He’s one of the most important scientific minds that we as humans have ever produced, he literally changed how we produce produce and fed the world. For this invention and what it did won a Nobel Prize. He won that prize the same year he was being hunted across Europe as a war criminal. Now, that’s a big jump, right? I feel like we skipped over the fact that Fritz Haber is the father of chemical warfare. The man that discovered how to pull nitrogen out of the atmosphere to make farming more effective, also personally ordered the deaths of 5,000 men at the Battle of Ypres in 1915. But that’s not the only thing that makes him a monster. He’s got A LOT of blood on his hands, some of it was that of his family. Somehow simultaneously a hero and a monster, one of the most important scientists of the 20th century and a man that is responsible for 100,000 deaths during WWI alone; not accounting for what his work would be turned into after his death in 1934.      </p><p><br></p>
