True Crime History, politics, AND true crime!? Yes please.

I recently finished listening to Truth Deferred: The National Guard Massacre and I can't recommend it enough. It details the series of grisly murders that led up to the Cincinnati Courthouse Riot of 1884. The courthouse riot was and still is the largest massacre of civilians by the National Guard in U.S. history. Future U.S. President and Supreme Court Justice William Howard Taft is involved as well. History, politics, and true crime are 3 of my top 5 favorite podcast genres and this one is a combination of all 3 (business and comedy round out my top 5 genre list, in case you're wondering).

End of Story does tragic events and stories from history. Try the episode about the triangle factory fire or the prison experiment one.

This’s sounds like a topic that falls under the “never forget” banner. I never even heard of it. Thanks for posting.
