REACTION! We React to a Voice from Beyond the Grave: Douglas Southall Freeman
Tuesday, 7 April, 2026

What happens when modern historians react to historians of the past? In this episode of Boom Goes the History, Garry Adelman brings a wild idea to the table: watching and reacting to old clips of legendary historians. First up—Douglas Southall Freeman. We dive into Freeman’s thoughts on respecting the enemy, but the real surprise? Hearing his voice! Join us for a fun, slightly stunned, and occasionally irreverent look at how historians of yesterday sound to historians of today. History, reactions, and a few laughs—boom.
