  • The Decemberists
    2025/12/26
    The morning of December 26, 1825 (O.S.), opened in St. Petersburg the way Russian winter mornings often do, with cold that does not so much bite as settle in and refuse to leave. Senate Square lay hard and white under the sky, the Neva locked beneath ice thick enough to bear cannon and men, or so it seemed until it did not. By midmorning, roughly three thousand soldiers stood assembled in a rigid square, boots planted, muskets idle, breath hanging like unspoken questions. They were members of the Life Guards, the sort of men raised to obey without hesitation, yet here they were refusing an oath. Not to God. Not to Russia. But to a new emperor whose legitimacy had become suddenly uncertain. In that hesitation, in that pause long enough for frost to creep into fingers and resolve, the first Russian revolution revealed itself, not as a roar, but as a held breath.

  • Washington's Crossing
    2025/12/25
    Every nation has a moment when the story almost ends. For the American Revolution, that moment came in December of 1776. The army was shrinking. The government was running. The public was tired. Even George Washington thought the game might be nearly up. What followed was not a miracle and not a legend. It was a gamble made by exhausted men in freezing darkness, guided by bad maps, worse weather, and a single hard truth. If this failed, there was no Revolution left to save.

  • The Leopoldville Coverup
    2025/12/24
    Christmas Eve, 1944. The war is supposed to be turning in the Allies’ favor. The lights of France are visible from the deck. Home feels close enough to imagine. Then a single torpedo reminds everyone that war does not care about calendars, carols, or confidence. Tonight on Dave Does History, we are telling the story of the SS Léopoldville, a troopship sunk just five and a half miles from safety, taking nearly eight hundred American soldiers with it. This is not a tale of heroism neatly wrapped in victory. It is a story of confusion, bad assumptions, language barriers, and systems that failed when they were needed most. It is also a story that was deliberately buried for decades, leaving families with silence instead of answers. The Léopoldville disaster matters because it was preventable, forgotten, and human. And because history does not only fail on battlefields. Sometimes it fails quietly, in the dark, while everyone assumes someone else is paying attention.
