History class lied to you. Not maliciously, but the version of the past handed down through textbooks and school curricula was curated, politically convenient, and almost entirely narrated by whoever came out on top. The Remedial Scholar: History Revisited exists to fix that.

Each episode, host Levi takes a deep dive into the stories that didn't make the highlight reel, or the ones that did but deserve a second look. Topics span ancient history through the modern era: colonial violence, financial crimes, unsolved murders, doomed expeditions, industrial disasters, forgotten rebellions, and the quiet machinery of institutions that shaped the world without ever making the front page.The format is conversational and thoroughly researched, with a healthy skepticism toward received wisdom and the occasional guest whose expertise gets woven into the narrative rather than bolted on. Think: what if your history professor was actually interesting, and also suspicious of everything they were taught.Past episodes have covered: the Salem Witch Trials and the hysteria that made them possible, the Donner Party and what survival actually costs, the Harlem Hellfighters and the racism that followed them home from a war they won, the Coal Wars of West Virginia, Jack the Ripper reconsidered, the Alamo from the Mexican perspective, and whether King George III was ever actually the tyrant we were told he was.

New episodes drop regularly. Keep questioning the past, the future will thank you.
