Sure, everyone knows the historical stories of Napoleon and the likes. But what about the unsung, yet fascinating people we don't ever hear about? Are we just going to let them slide into oblivion?
Well, not us! With this podcast series, we are here to decenter history by diving into the stories of the sometimes fascinating, obsessed, inspiring, or outright strange folks that have wandered the edges of this Earth. So, who this? Welcome to our podcast!
Have you ever stepped on dog poop and felt satisfaction knowing that the full power of the law would bring the wretched animal to justice after you press civil charges? No? It's just a dog with no concept of property damage? Hm.
Animals can sometimes be a nuisance just doing what they do, like said dog, or worse, pests eating your family’s crops. And there was a time when, yes, you could take these animals to human court. For this bonus episode we ask: “can animals even commit crimes?”, as we explore stories of animal crime and punishment.

Ruthless Cassander: the King in Alexander the Great’s Shadow
Alexander the Great lit up the world and left those around him to pick up the ashes. We know the stories of his conquests, rise to the very top, and ultimately his death — but what about after? What happened to his friends and family?
Meet Cassander, the cut-throat figure who “watched” over Alexander’s home of Macedonia as he conquered far-off lands. Join us as we uncover Cassander’s story and find out why it’s not always good to be related to those at the very top.

The Missing Stars of International Football
Over the past century, women’s football has been suppressed, banned and even criminalised. Yet, in 1971, a Women’s World Cup held in Mexico City (20 years before the first “official” FIFA Women’s World Cup) reached unprecedented numbers. The Final was watched by a record-breaking crowd, making it the highest-attended women’s sporting event in history. And until 2023, nobody knew.
Listen to the incredible story of footballers fulfilling their dreams and defying all odds, inspired by the 2023 documentary, Copa 71, which shows never-seen-before footage of this historic event.
