Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2391964/fan_mail/new] When we last left the crusades both of the main leaders of the warring parties have died. And of course there is a power struggle before we get new leaders who also set about planning their own crusades.  Follow along as we meet new champions and villains, and you can choose who you think the real villains are in this lesson.   ROH EP 68 Source Notes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crusades [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crusades] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sack_of_Constantinople [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sack_of_Constantinople] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Children%27s_Crusade [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Children%27s_Crusade] Thanks for joining us today!

Episode 67: The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire:

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2391964/fan_mail/new] We will be back in one week with our continuance of our look at the Crusades but this week we are going to look at an event that took place over a hundred years ago, but changed the way people did business forever.  At the turn of the century it was common to find sweatshops that employed hundreds of immigrants to make products; for little pay in terrible conditions. At the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory they took things a step further and locked the doors leaving only one exit so that they could inspect bags as employees were leaving for the day.  And so, on March 25th 1911, over 400 workers found themselves in these conditions when a fire broke out on the 8th floor. With no fire alarms, smoke detectors, or sprinklers the employees were trapped high above the street with no way to escape.   ROH EP 67 Source Notes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_Shirtwaist_Factory_fire [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_Shirtwaist_Factory_fire] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shirtwaist [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shirtwaist] https://rememberthetrianglefire.org/ [https://rememberthetrianglefire.org/] https://www.history.com/articles/triangle-shirtwaist-fire [https://www.history.com/articles/triangle-shirtwaist-fire] https://www.nfpa.org/news-blogs-and-articles/blogs/2024/03/01/the-triangle-shirtwaist-factory-fire-of-1911 [https://www.nfpa.org/news-blogs-and-articles/blogs/2024/03/01/the-triangle-shirtwaist-factory-fire-of-1911] https://rememberthetrianglefire.org/memorial/ [https://rememberthetrianglefire.org/memorial/] Thanks for joining us today!

Episode 66: The Crusades Part 1:

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2391964/fan_mail/new] We are going way back in time this week, even further than the Ottoman Empire, to look at a series of events that we all know about, but probably know very little about.  Christianity and Islam have been large players in the religious world for thousands of years. The Pope has been the leader of one of those religions for almost as long, and through him wars have been raged in their gods name.  Things really kick off in the 11th century as these two huge forces fought for what they felt their religion entitled them too.   ROH EP 66 Source Notes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crusades [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crusades] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_war_theory [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_war_theory] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crusade_of_1101 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crusade_of_1101] Thanks for joining us today!

Episode 65: Eric Rudolph:

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2391964/fan_mail/new] We are taking a look at the case of a man who terrorized the nation, and our little slice of heaven, for years.  Fueled by white supremacy, a hatred of socialism and abortions, Eric Rudolph set off several bombs, starting at the 1996 Olympic games in Atlanta GA.  Even after 5 years of a federal man hunt, it was a local rookie cop from right here in Appalachia that would be the one to arrest the Olympic Park Bomber.   ROH EP 65 Source Notes: https://www.churchofisrael.org/ [https://www.churchofisrael.org/] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Rudolph [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Rudolph] Thanks for joining us today!
