As an avid historical nerd which spends most of my free time now in my 50's watching History related subjects on YT how have I not found this channel before today? I swear the YT Algorithm is wonky but needless to say I found it today and immediately subbed. Born in Bell Co, Raised in Lawrence Co. (home of the 13th chief justice of the United States Supreme Court Fred M. Vinson). Thank you for bringing light to my obviously biased favorite state of the union! :)
Agree! YT algorithm is crazy. Thanks for subscribing! More Kentucky history on the way!
