Softcore History
by Softcore HistoryA podcast for the casual fan of history. The Wikipedia reader. The kids who grew up with a dad who watched the same 10 hours of World War II specials on The History Channel. Join Dan Regester, Rob Fox, and Jake Goldman as they tastefully insert themselves into the past. The only thing we don’t show is our research.

The Villisca Axe Murders

A small Iowa town was shook to its core in the summer of 1912 after six members of a local affluent family and two of their guests were brutally murdered with an axe inside the comfort of their own home. A lengthy investigation resulted in several oddball suspects but ultimately zero convictions. The case remains unsolved.

Gaza Has Never Belonged To Anyone Who Lives There
1h 7m · Published
Who does Gaza really belong to? Or Israel/Palestine in general? It's sort of hard to say since the people native to that area have basically NEVER been in charge of it. From the Bronze Age to the end of World War 2 the area we know today as Israel and/or Palestine has been ruled by everyone from the Egyptians and Alexander the Great to the Romans and the British. Basically every empire you've ever heard of. But pretty much never, ever Jews or Palestinians.

The Violent Life And Dejected Death Of Geronimo
59m · Published
Geronimo was seen as both the last great defender of the Native American way of life and a stubborn, savage holdout who put Apache lives in danger in the name of revenge. His life was a rollercoast ride of peaks and valleys -- constantly at odds with both the Mexican and US Governments. From North America's most wanted fugitive terrorizing Southwestern settlers to glorified parade decoration for Teddy Roosevelt's inauguration, the slow burn of Geronimo's story was ultimately a tragic and bitter existence.

How Hollywood Killed Your Dad’s Favorite Comedian
1h 17m · Published
Long before the first SAG strike, Hollywood’s working conditions and lack of fair pay weren't just questionable, they were INSANE. So bad, in fact, that it helped lead to the early death of Curly Howard of The Three Stooges, who was forced to film despite suffering multiple strokes and other severe health issues. The Stooges were also robbed of millions by their studio, Columbia Pictures, who refused to share with their biggest comedy stars how popular they really were.
