A Daily Slice of History
My name is Sean Kavanagh, and welcome to our podcast/radio show, A Daily Slice of History. Along with my co-host Therese Shimkus, our goal is to deliver a daily entertaining tidbit about something that happened in history on that day! It doesn’t matter when it happened either; we’ll discuss anything from the American Revolution to the moon landing! This show also airs live on 99.5 WUSR in the local NEPA area on weekdays at 10 am and 4 pm.
