Plausibly Live! - The Official Podcast Of The Dave Bowman Show

In this explosive episode of Dave Does History, Dave Bowman joins Bill Mick to dissect the chain of events that lit the fuse of the American Revolution. From the biting street politics of the Sons of Liberty to the fatal musket blast on a snowy Boston night, Dave walks us through the Boston Massacre with sharp insight and sharp elbows. You'll meet a wigmaker’s apprentice, a furious redcoat, and a 12-year-old boy whose funeral became political theater. You'll hear how propaganda, principle, and powder all collided on King Street. And most importantly, you’ll discover how John Adams—armed with nothing but conviction and a powdered wig—stood tall for justice in a world teetering on the edge of revolt. If you've ever wondered how a snowball, a silversmith, and a jury of farmers helped launch a nation, this episode is for you. Liberty, law, and legacy—served up Boston-style.
