The Constant: A History of Getting Things Wrong

In September of 1822, a ship carrying 70 immigrants left London bound for St. Joseph, a bustling city on The Mosquito Coast in the small Central American nation of Poyais. They were followed by hundreds more pilgrims, all looking for a better life. They were about to be severely disappointed.

Mark,
I really enjoy your brand of story telling. I've shared many episodes with friends and family. However, your "zingers" at the President, such as the one at the end of the Gregor McGregor episode are the intellectual equivalent of flapping your weenie at a bus load of school kids. It serves no meaningful purpose except to drive away listeners and perhaps to make you feel better.
You put out a better product when you keep those political views to yourself.

Hi Dan,
I appreciate you listening, and I appreciate you wanting to help me improve the show, if that is your aim. Unfortunately, however, your advice here isn't actionable.
History stories are never about the past, just as science-fiction stories are never about the future. Stories are always about the present, and they are always political. The job then, as the Chicago humorist and newspaper man Finley Peter Dunne once put it, is to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.
I'm not saying my flapping always or even usually succeeds in that mission, but you enjoining me to stop might be a sign that my weenie is at least pointed in the right direction.

They gave me the job I applied for and made me an offer of more per hour than I have ever made in my life! I am so happy! Government jobs sometimes are a slow process.

I had a poor credit which was largely due to identity theft, I needed a loan to finance my business but could not get one because my credit was not just good enough, after trying everything things went from bad to worse, the more I disputed the lower my credit score went. This continued till a Pal introduced me to Lanx Credit Solution. I explained my position and they assured me that they could help me put things in order by fixing my credit and increasing my score. They kept their words, I am still in awe. I now have a credit score of 782, all the negative items that bedeviled my credit were removed finally. It was good one. Get to them on Lanxcreditsolution@gmail. com, text or call (214) 888 9709.

I really want to thank Dr Emu for saving my marriage. My wife really treated me badly and left home for almost 3 month this got me sick and confused. Then I told my friend about how my wife has changed towards me then she told me to contact Dr Emu that he will help me bring back my wife and change her back to a good woman. I never believed in all this but I gave it a try. Dr Emu casted a spell of return of love on her, and my wife came back home for forgiveness and today we are happy again. If you are going through any relationship stress or you want back your Ex or Divorce husband you can contact his whatsapp +2347012841542 or email emutemple@gmail.com

Always prayed to be able to afford my needs, I had everything going well till I lost my job and things went south, the pandemic made things worse, the situation dealt with my report and my FICO score became too low, I could get a home, I had late payments, liens and inquiries on my report. I took a cue from a friend whom had similar issues but was helped by Lanx Credit Solution and contacted them, it didn’t even take 2 weeks and I got everything back, they removed all derogatory items and increased my FICO score to 780 now with a very good credit things are beginning to look up for me and my family. You can get them on [LANXCREDITSOLUTION@GMAIL.COM (214) 888 9709]. Tell them Avery referred you.

Omg I Finally Got Helped !! I'm so excited right now, I just have to share my testimony on this Forum.. The feeling of being loved takes away so much burden from our shoulders. I had all this but I made a big mistake when I cheated on my wife with another woman and my wife left me for over 4 months after she found out.. I was lonely, sad and devastated. Luckily I was directed to a very powerful spell caster Dr Emu who helped me cast a spell of reconciliation on our Relationship and he brought back my wife and now she loves me far more than ever.. I'm so happy with life now. Thank you so much Dr Emu, kindly Contact Dr Emu Today and get any kind of help you want.. Via Email emutemple@gmail.com or Call/WhatsApp +2347012841542

Ellie Jones told me about Lanx Credit Solution and how they helped her increase her Fico and improve her credit, at first it was difficult to believe but I had pressing credit concerns that I needed to clear up I had foreclosure, evictions, late payments and some debts. It was like my life was over because I could not do anything about it, she persuaded me and I had to let them handle it. This review is as a proof that they are really good at what they do. My credit score sits at 760, and the evictions, late payments, and foreclosure on my credit reports are gone, my debts were also cleared. I appreciate their job and I would like you to contact them on LANXCREDITSOLUTION@GMAIL.COM or (214) 888 9709. It really was worth it.

I really enjoy the stories and the subjects you cover. This enjoyment is shattered when you toss in unnecessary and completely unrelated political comments. Please, stop. You cheapen the story and yourself.

Mark, as you unrolled the story of Gregor MacGregor before us, I found myself thinking, "Jeez, this jackass sounds like Donald Trump."

Thank you for bringing these stories to us, and for reminding us that no matter how much time passes, charlatans and swindlers will *always* be with us.

Cheers,
Rob

Hi everyone I'm Mrs. ALEKSI TAISIYA, My husband divorced me 2 years ago to live with another woman and i have tried have him back but i could not, so i try to do many things to get him back and he refuse to come back. One faithful Friday morning, I visit a forum for tips on how to get your Ex back and there i saw a lady testifying on how Dr.AKHERE helped her to get her husband back after he was tie down with a spell by another woman. Although I never believed in spiritual work I reluctantly tried him because I was desperate and i contact him and explain my problems to him, to my greatest surprise Dr.AKHERE helped me to bring back my husband after 5days and now my relationship is more perfect just as he promised. Getting your ex back permanently does not only bring back someone you love but it will also reunite your lovers feelings. My husband now treats me like a Queen and always says he loves me all the time. If you are passing through difficulties in your relationship, Doctor AKHERE can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and some other things. I can assure he's highly potent and reliable. Email him for urgent help [AKHERETEMPLE@gmail.com ] or +2349057261346 .

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga.
