Amazing Historical Calendar Mistakes! Millennium Was 1997? March is 1st Month of Year? Washington's Birthday Wrong?
Episode 13
Monday, 24 November, 2025

David Duncan gives amazing stories from his book "Calendar." In this 1999 interview he reveals that the millennium was not in 2000 but 1997, and that March is the historical first month of the year. Also that political leaders moved around days between months, George Washington was actually born earlier than we celebrate, and the shocking Pope decision that did away with days, resulting in current inaccurate ancestry data. All episodes are on YouTube @swinzenburg.
