Talkernate History - Almost America

Paglalarawan

In this episode we discuss a hybrid work of non-fiction mixed with alternate history written by Steve Tally. Within are 28 (!?) short stories positing "what-ifs" in American history like "What if Teddy Roosevelt Outlawed Football? Or what if George Rogers Clark DIDN'T capture Fort Sackville!? Seldom have the possibilities been more endless! Fans of our Alternate Presidents episode should absolutely not sleep on this one. It's a certified banger.
