Welcome to The Daily History Chronicle, where history meets the headlines.
Every day, something happened that history tried to simplify.
The Daily History Chronicle goes back to those moments the battles, the coups, the disasters, the revolutions and refuses the simple version. Host Richard Backus brings an investigator's instincts and a storyteller's voice to events that still have unresolved questions, unacknowledged victims, and consequences no one talks about.
This isn't history as comfort food. It's history as it was morally complicated, politically inconvenient, and impossible to look away from.
New episodes daily. If you've ever felt like the official version of a story left something out, you're in the right place.
