  • The Toledo War: A Border, a Militia and One Stabbing

    The Toledo War: A Border, a Militia and One Stabbing
    Sep 22 2026
    Ohio and Michigan once mobilised over a strip of land around Toledo. Rival surveys and a fight over statehood led to arrests, a stabbed sheriff and a territorial bargain. The often repeated ‘bloodless war’ label misses that injury. Next: Boston’s molasses disaster and a later marshmallow fluff sequel myth.

We follow the record behind his military status and the reported story of his help at Monte Cassino, without losing sight of the soldiers who could not all return home.

    The Anglo-Zanzibar War: 38 Minutes, Depending on the Clock
    Sep 19 2026
    The Anglo-Zanzibar War is remembered as lasting 38 minutes, though contemporary clocks disagree. This episode keeps the colonial ultimatum, the casualty imbalance and the imperial power behind the famous stopwatch.
