Über diesen Titel

Man this week is a powerful episode. Arthur talks dating, mental health, and art and we share our reasons for supporting the families of Renee Good and Alex Pretti and why we support #AbolishIce and #FreeMinnesota. Then we dig into the story of teenager Grace Darling and how she, with a little help from her father, rowed out in a tiny rowboat (specifically a coble) to help 8 people who had survived a shipwreck in the Farne Islands! She was made into a hero by the London press but she never saw the point, after all she had only done what she did to help people who needed helping. And once again, our episode ties into the modern day as Alex Pretti lost his life just trying to help someone, a risk that Grace ran as well. Check out the episode in this 19th century heroism and 21st century heroism have a lot in common episode of the Family Plot Podcast! Plus the return of Edward October as the guide on our Elevator of History!
