I'm TK, your guide to the past as we uncover the people, events, and little-known-facts hidden in the shadows of your old history textbooks. From empress baddies to activist profiles, turkey gods and the history of the toothbrush, tattoos, Pompeii peepees, and everything in between, you can find it all here. There is no telling how far we'll dig or how many "historical facts" we'll reexamine. No event too small and no topic too big, because this is For The Love of History.

Empress Baddie: the World’s First Author Enheduanna
Step right up, history BFFs! Today, we're diving headfirst into the ancient Mesopotamian saga of Enheduanna, a woman who defied the odds, battled patriarchal nonsense, and penned the very first poem in recorded history. But hold onto your clay tablets, because this story's got more twists and turns than a Sumerian soap opera! Picture it: ancient Mesopotamia, where clay tablets were all the rage, and 'emojis' meant chiseling tiny pictures into your communication medium of choice. Enter Enheduanna, daughter of the big boss man, Sargon of Akkad Emperor of the first Empire. While others were busy tallying sheep and wheat stocks, Enheduanna had bigger plans – like, let's revolutionize literature, shall we? But before I spoil the whole thing press play why don't ya? 🤩App Info🤩 https://donorbox.org/for-the-love-of-history-app 💙💛Want more For the love of History?💙💛  Patreon https://www.patreon.com/fortheloveofhistorypodcast?fan_landing=true&view_as=public Instagram https://www.instagram.com/fortheloveof_historypodcast/?hl=en Website https://www.fortheloveofhistorypod.com/about TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@4theloveofhistory Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/6SjwlXC5e8uvPxXE8siyEZ?si=1f813135bad1471c Merch Store https://www.bonfire.com/store/for-the-love-of-history/ 📚You can find resources on the FTLH Website📚 https://www.fortheloveofhistorypod.com/about Learn more about your ad choices.

The Bizarre History of Hysteria
You are not gonna guess how long the "disease" hysteria has been plaguing humanity! 😱 In this week's episode, we take a deep dive into the history of hysteria and take a look at how this sexist phenomenon still affects us 4,000 years after it first reared its ugly head. Spicy TK definitely makes an appearance in this episode, and we have garbage humans that follow us from ancient Egypt to Greece, to the modern day. If you've got a uterus, hold onto it for dear life, so that it doesn't wander around your body and cause you distress, and let's get into the history of hysteria. ___________________________________________________ Wanna take a trip with TK!?! https://trovatrip.com/trip/africa/egypt/egypt-with-tehya-nakamura-oct-2024?earlyBird=true ___________________________________________________ 💙💛Want more FTLH?💙💛 Patreon https://www.patreon.com/fortheloveofhistorypodcast?fan_landing=true&view_as=public Merch Store https://www.bonfire.com/store/for-the-love-of-history/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/fortheloveof_historypodcast/?hl=en Webstite https://www.fortheloveofhistorypod.com/about TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@4theloveofhistory Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/6SjwlXC5e8uvPxXE8siyEZ?si=1f813135bad1471c ________________________________________________________________________ 📚Resources📚 resources for this episode can be found on For the Love of History Podcast.com https://www.fortheloveofhistorypod.com/about Learn more about your ad choices.
