About this listen

 Think of this as the anti-textbook. It pulls back the curtain on sanitized historical narratives to reveal the corrupt, tragic, and often blood-soaked reality underneath. From the twisted roots of medical practices to government cover-ups, the show investigates how yesterday’s horrors silently sculpted today’s world. It’s a deep dive into the messy, uncomfortable truths society tries to forget, blending research with a candid voice that asks: why didn't we learn this sooner? It is history with the lights turned off and the ugly secrets fully exposed.Dark History Lesson World
