Über diesen Titel

Welcome to Florida, the only state that could turn a swamp into a spectacle and a scandal into a tourist attraction.

From conquistadors chasing myths to retirees chasing golf balls, Sunburns, Scandals, and Swamp Things tells the story of America’s strangest state with humor, heart, and just enough truth to sting. Historian and essayist Jordan Blake Carter takes listeners on a wild ride through five centuries of chaos and charisma, uncovering the patterns that make Florida both paradise and punchline.

Hear how Indigenous ingenuity shaped the land long before European conquest, how the Seminoles outlasted three wars, how developers sold underwater property as prime real estate, and how modern Florida turned theme parks, hurricanes, and headlines into an art form.

Lively, sharp, and endlessly entertaining, this is history that sweats, sparkles, and refuses to behave.
