1: Chaotic Good: John Brown and the Pottawatomie Massacre (Part 1)

An Old Timey Podcast

Clear everything off your calendar — this episode is a MEATY BOY! Norm kicks off our first episode by introducing himself as my lover/husband, then launches into a veeerrry deep dive into famed anti-slavery crusader, John Brown. You’ll laugh! You’ll get uncomfy! You might even get a lil’ turned on, imagining John Brown on the cover of Threatening Boyz magazine!
And if you want to learn more about John Brown, you’re in luck. This episode is just about the rise of John Brown. Norm will cover John Brown’s raid at Harpers Ferry, and his subsequent execution, in episode three.
Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Norm pulled from:
“Midnight Rising: John Brown and the Raid That Sparked the Civil War” by Tony Horwitz
“To Purge This Land With Blood: A Biography of John Brown” by Stephen Oates
