New Chasing Ghosts Podcast episode is live Monday 17 March 2025.
I am an un-credentialed amateur historian who has done very little archive work and lack the substantial infrastructure credentialed historians have to practice their craft. I have debated esteemed historians and won on stage (Daniel Walker Howe looked at my CV and did not prepare) but that doesn’t make me better than them.
I think my various detours in life mostly outside the formal academy gives me a unique insight into how history works and why I think I am more sober than university historians.
I describe some of the reasons I do it and the techniques I employ to get the single most accurate picture of what happened then to determine what’s going on now.
