Show Notes

Today we are travelling back to Civil War America, recounting a tale about a man to be hung from a bridge after being captured by scouts of the Union army. A story that paints the two sides with a greyer hue than other depictions of this time in history. Emphasizing the humanity and lack thereof on both sides of the conflict. A harrowing story of an era of entropy in history.
