Gettysburg Historians Unfiltered LIVE (Part 2)
Welcome back for part 2 of our special LIVE bonus episode of Boom Goes the History, recorded before a packed audience at Gettysburg History, home of the Adams County Historical Society! Co-hosts Kris White and Garry Adelman return with an all-star panel of Gettysburg experts, including Wayne Motts, Jim Hessler, Tim Smith, Sarah Kay Bierle, and Chris Mackowski, for another fast-paced, unpredictable, and delightfully irreverent conversation about America's most famous battlefield.
In this episode, the panel explores some of Gettysburg's most overlooked July 2 battle sites, remembers long-lost tourist attractions that once dotted the battlefield, and dives into the thunderous Confederate bombardment that preceded Pickett's Charge. Along the way, they tackle one of Gettysburg's most enduring topics—Jennie Wade—in a lively discussion that is sure to spark conversation among history buffs.
As always, the conversation wanders into unexpected territory, filled with battlefield stories, historical debates, behind-the-scenes insights, plenty of laughs, and the kind of Gettysburg nerdery that Boom Goes the History is known for.
Whether you're a first-time visitor, a lifelong Gettysburg enthusiast, or just love hearing historians argue over fascinating details, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
