113 - Explorer, David Livingstone

David Livngstone you presume? Correct! One of the most famous people of the Victorian era, David Livingstone was a terrible missionary... But lucky for him he was a fantastic explorer. Travelling to Africa for three seperate epic adventures, he went to an incredible amount of places no other European person had ever been before him. He is also perhaps best remembered for his advocacy against slavery. Support the show and get rewards like bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/DoGoOnPod Twitter: @DoGoOnPod Instagram: @DoGoOnPod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoGoOnPod/ Email us: dogoonpod@gmail.comSOURCES/FURTHER READING ON LIVINGSTONE:https://www.britannica.com/biography/David-Livingstonehttps://www.biography.com/people/david-livingstone-9383955https://www.britannica.com/topic/Opium-Warshttp://zambezitraveller.com/livingstone/history/david-livingstone%E2%80%99s-early-missionary-years-and-first-expeditionLivingstone, David, Missionary Travels and Researches In South Africa (1858)http://www.historytoday.com/richard-cavendish/david-livingstone-reaches-victoria-fallshttp://www.tothevictoriafalls.com/vfpages/discovery/second.htmlThe Daring Heart of David Livingstone: Exile, African Slavery, and the Publicity Stunt That Saved Millions - Jay Milbrandt (2014)https://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/Doctor+Livingstone%2C+I+presume%3Fhttps://www.nts.org.uk/Learn/adult_hidden_livingstone.php Hosted on Acast.

112 - Chesty Puller

This week we discuss the life of the most decorated Marine in US History, Lewis "Chesty" Puller! Yep, it's another badass! We get distracted a fair bit too, and there's a lot of US military jargon that we don't fully understand becuase A) We are Australian and B) we are podcasters and NOT in the military. Regardless, Chesty is a very impressive person! Twitter: @DoGoOnPod Instagram: @DoGoOnPod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoGoOnPod/ Email us: dogoonpod@gmail.com  Hosted on Acast.
