   Ep. 150 - Toussaint Louverture Part II: With Friends Like These

   Last time on HPH we began the story of Toussaint Louverture who joined up with a slave rebellion in his home in the French colony of Saint Domingue. He rose to prominence and proved himself to be not only a brilliant military mind, but also an adept politician who would do anything to maintain the freedom on his fellow citizens. In this episode, we're taking a look at how he tried to best help his people while repeatedly being dicked over by the French, who were afraid of losing their colony. And of course we take a lot of strange detours on our drunken journey. It's a wild ride so why don't you go ahead a grab a drink, settle in, and enjoy this episode of Hundred Proof History titled Toussaint Louverture Part II: With Friends Like These!

   Ep. 149 - Toussaint Louverture Part I: Flip Flopping for Freedom

   Stop, collaborate, and listen, because we are FINALLY back with a brand new edition. In 1791 the slaves of Saint Domingue, which is modern day Haiti, rose up in rebellion to overthrow their oppressors. From this chaos came a man who would prove to be an adept leader and cunning politician. He would eventually find a way to eliminate slavery in Haiti and his work would lead to the first sovereign nation in the Caribbean. In this episode we're taking a look at his early life and the first few years of the rebellion. It's a wild and rarely told story, so we are excited to be back to tell it to you. So why don't you grab a drink, settle in, and enjoy this episode of Hundred Proof History titled Toussaint Louverture Part I...Flip Flopping for Freedom! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/100proofhistory/message

   Ep. 148 - The Great Raid: Going Down to Cabana Town

   Last week we ended our show on a bleak note with hundreds of American prisoners of war at serious risk of being slaughtered by their Japanese guards. But we can't stand to see you so glum. You're just so pretty when you smile, you should do it more often! So, to help guide you back to a state of history bliss, we're going to devote this episode to telling you all about the spec ops raid designed to save these prisoners from annihilation. It is a great bit of World War II history that sometimes gets overshadowed by massive battles, but we think it deserves its time in the spotlight and we also think you're going to love it. So, why don't you grab a drink, settle in, and enjoy this episode of Hundred Proof History titled The Great Raid - Going Down to Cabana Town!
