Extra History Suggestions are OPEN until 1/15! (Patreon)

Hello Historians, our next Extra History theme is The Amercian Revolution!

Did you know we’ve never done an American Revolution series? The closest we’ve come is the Articles of Confederation series, and that was six years and 300 episodes ago. So this month we’ll be voting on Revolutionary War topics, whether that’s the Sons of Liberty, the British capture of New York, or the “Swamp Fox” Francis Marion, a legendary guerilla leader whose reputation has evolved significantly given his slaveholding and operations against the Cherokee. Note that though this is an American Revolution series, it doesn’t have to be about an American—so if you’re dying to know about Lafayette, Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben, or Lord Cornwallis, please throw them in the hat (which is a tricorn, naturally).

You can enter YOUR suggestions for the topic HERE in this form.

Some notes about suggestions:

• Suggestions should feature content before the 1930s
• If a suggestion we encounter only has enough research material/production scope for a one-off episode instead of a full series, we file it in a separate list to reference later when we are planning to schedule a one-off episode between series (this is true for every survey we do).
• Only one suggestion per person, please! Multiple suggestions from the same person during any given survey period will be manually removed. Extra History Suggestion Survey is OPEN until 1/15.

We can't wait to read all your suggested topics!
