Dog Show Tips - Marjorie Martorella Interview with Will Alexander

On this episode of Dave Does History, we turn the clocks back to April 24, 1183 BCE—the day Troy burned. Join Dave as he walks through the smoldering ruins of the legendary city, uncovering the epic tale of gods, warriors, betrayal, and a giant wooden horse. From Achilles’ wrath to Aeneas’ escape, this story shaped empires and echoed through time. Drawing from Homer, Virgil, and archaeological clues, we blend myth and memory into a vivid narrative of the Bronze Age’s fiery twilight. Buckle up—history is about to get heroic, tragic, and just a bit divine.

We are joined by Steve Kemp this week. Steve was on his way to a very good career in the Major Leagues until an unfortunate eye injury curtailed it. He had a great college career at USC before being drafted by the Detroit Tigers in the 1st round of the 1976 January Draft. Steve was up in the Majors for good with the Tigers in 1977 and it didn't take long for him to start hitting. His best year in the big leagues was 1979 when he made the All-Star team. Join us as we go Back When There Was Baseball with Steve Kemp.

A good action-survival film involving somebody getting trapped in a life-or-death situation can certainly get your heart pumping, but at least you get to escape that stressful movie world once it’s over. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case for everyone, as once in a while terrifying tales of people getting hopelessly stuck in tight, deadly spots occur in real life. From people getting trapped below a slab of ice in a freezing Alaskan river, to the man who spent sixty hours stuck at the bottom of the sea with his oxygen rapidly running out, let’s dig into some of the most claustrophobic true stories you’ll ever hear!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
