On October 14, 1912, Teddy Roosevelt — then running for an unprecedented third term under the banner of the Bull Moose Party — set out to give a speech at the Milwaukee Auditorium in Wisconsin. En route, he crossed paths with a mentally ill saloon owner named John Schrank. For some reason, Schrank had become convinced that Roosevelt had assassinated President William McKinley in 1901. And so Schrank waited with the crowd, then fired at Roosevelt with a Colt revolver. https://allthatsinteresting.com/teddy-roosevelt-cheating-death credits: https://allthatsinteresting.com/podcast-credits [https://allthatsinteresting.com/podcast-credits] History Uncovered is part of the Airwave Media network: www.airwavemedia.com [https://cms.megaphone.fm/organizations/49030b9e-6e7b-11ec-9fbd-ff69d6d10229/podcasts/3fb270c0-fd5f-11ec-b4ca-fb559dfcd2d7/episodes/0cdd4d50-b49c-11ee-affb-cb127eef9aeb/www.airwavemedia.com] Learn more about your ad choices.

Most depictions of Mary Magdalene in popular culture characterize her in the same way: as a sex worker. In the musical Jesus Christ Superstar, for example, Mary is critiqued by Judas for her "profession" and later describes how she's quote-unquote "had so many men." Indeed, most people, when asked to describe Mary Magdalene, would probably say she was a sex worker, one who became a symbol of forgiveness and redemption through her relationship with Jesus. https://allthatsinteresting.com/mary-magdalene [https://allthatsinteresting.com/mary-magdalene] credits: https://allthatsinteresting.com/podcast-credits [https://allthatsinteresting.com/podcast-credits] History Uncovered is part of the Airwave Media network: www.airwavemedia.com [https://www.airwavemedia.com] Learn more about your ad choices.
