• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Great Docuseries on the French & Indian War

History that doesn’t suck
Is a good Podcast that covers the war. I did not know a young George Washington fired the first shot of the French and Indian war until I listen to this.

Easily one the top three most consequential people who ever live.

Alexander and Caesar being the others.

Please dont take this as condescending. Time to expand your thinking.

Dont be so ethnocentric in your thinking. Ghengis was 10x the military commander of Ceasar or Washington.

Jesus, Muhammad, and Ghandi had a much more profound impact on society.

Got a nice buzz going, just conversating.

I said consequential people not military commanders.

The three I listed, imo, had a much larger and more lasting impact on the world as we know it today.

Jesus was obviously off the table cuz it's a given he is the most significant person in history.

Ghandi... Lmfao

Muhammad is an ok suggestion just not IYAM
