Description

There have been moments throughout history when separate and distinct storylines converge to change the course of the human experience. Join me as I seek out those stories to endeavor to uncover the who, how, and why of these history-altering moments.Do you have a light interest in history and a healthy respect for research, but don't necessarily want to do it yourself? If you're the type of person who wonders "why" but not enough to google the answer, Convergence & Consequence is for you!
