Famous figures. Forgotten stories - a history podcast that brings them back. Welcome to the Almost Immortal History Podcast. This show brings to life the stories of fascinating people who were famous in their day and accomplished amazing things, but over time they have not been immortalized in the same way as an Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King, Amelia Earhart or Winston Churchill – but their stories and impact on all of us are equally worth appreciating, understanding and enjoying.
