About D Listers of History

Welcome to D Listers of History, a podcast about interesting people you probably didn't learn about in school. Take it from someone who actually paid attention in history class, most teachers just talk about the same couple of guys who always get top billing. This show isn't for your Benjamin Franklins and Otto Von Bismarks. This is the show for the other person, just out there doing their best. Come hang out with us and history's footnotes, we may not be famous but we are having fun.
