    144. The Marchioness Disaster
    May 26 2025

    1989 in London, England, 130 partygoers boarded a small pleasure boat - The Marchioness - for a birthday bash cruise down the Thames river. Less than an hour later, over a third of these people would lose their lives after the boat was struck by a large dredger. For the survivors and the victims families, the pain had only begun.

My absolute favorite!

if you think the storys are enjoyable, her outfits are just as fun. when I was in school, most of the history stories were left out of the books due to not being in the core cirriculum. American learning system, where only the history on the test is important,

most fun learning history ever
