The Rest Is History - Podcast készítő Goalhanger Podcasts

Kategóriák:

Rin Tin Tin, born on the Western Front in 1918, became one of the biggest movie stars of the silent film era. Greyfriars Bobby gained his fame for guarding his masters' grave for 14 years, until the day he died.  Bounce, Admiral Collingwood’s loyal companion, would hide below deck during the Napoleonic Wars, and Collingwood would sing to him after battle, to calm his nerves. Nixon's dog Checkers saved his political career, but never lived to see the White House. The wolfhound Gelert, who died protecting his master's infant son, and Blondi, Hitler's German Shepherd, were both put to death by their owners.  Join Tom and Dominic as they discuss history's most famous dogs. *The Rest Is History Live Tour 2023*: Tom and Dominic are back on tour this autumn!
