Elliot Roosevelt (Teddy Roosevelt) [Re-Edited]
Overshadowed Podcast
Overshadowed is a podcast about the siblings and spouses of people who changed the world. Have you ever felt overlooked or irrelevant because of your sibling’s accomplishments? How do you think Asia Booth felt after her brother assassinated Abraham Lincoln? Pretty bad! It overtook her life, and she even wrote a memoir trying to humanize John. ”He was so nice to everyone, I have no idea how this could’ve happened!” kind of stuff. Check out episode one to learn more (and try to overlook its ”episode 1” elements.) Siblings we’ve covered include: Nannerl Mozart, Theo Van Gogh, Marc ”Cage” Coppola, Joseph Bonaparte, and many more. We also cover spouses who (typically...) prop up their loved ones, like George Putnam (Amelia Earhart) and Lady Bird Johnson (Lyndon B. Johnson), although in grim cases like Cleopatra and Albert Einstein, those spouses don’t fare so well. This podcast is hosted by comedians Zach Russell and Charles Engle so chill out. Suggestions for siblings/spouses/weird stories? Write to us overshadowedpod@gmail.com Patreon for standup sets,roast battles, bonus episodes, and more!

Zach and Charles talk American Revolution with Harshil Shukla in this episode about Sam and John Adams. One's a fiery late-blooming behind-the-scenes ugly batman and the other's a learned fat president who loves his naked morning strolls.
Featuring: Sam Adam's grave, boufing tea, a lot of anti-Hancock rhetoric and more. A failure until 41 years old, "Sam" is someone we can all look to to excuse our failings as simply laying the groundwork for greatness. Patreon ep about John adams will be uploaded by 4/21/24.

Grab a hat full of sour horse milk and hunker down with yur(t) boys this week as we cover the doomed bromance between Genghis Khan [aka "Temugin"] and his blood-brother-turned-rival, Jamukha. Both imprisoned by Merkits as kids, Temugin and Jamukha make it official with a blood oath, and when Temugin's bride gets stolen by another band of those pesky Merkits, Jamukha rallys an army to get her back. Exciting stuff, hmm? I wanted to write more, but at this point you should just listen.
Featuring: yurts, mispronunciations, bridal warfare, empire as a byproduct of raid-culture, horses as vehicles, horses as tanks, shamans, horses as kegs, sustainable indoor heating, and the big reset.
I'd like to extend a public thank you to Charles for all he's suffered for the pod, little bitch.
Patreon has bonus shizz from this ep (it will, updated: 2/20/24).

We're back with our coldest episode yet, covering North America's most overshadowed gold rush - the Yukon/Klondike - that spanned 1896-1899 and yielded MORE GOLD than the California gold rush, which lasted twice as long. Featuring: outdoorsy gambling addicts, deadbeat dads, lady-yeast, the boom town of Dawson, a scamming willy wonka type, and what we think is too many dead horses.
The Klondike Stampede saw 100,000 inexperienced hopefuls journeying West in search of cold gold, but only 30,000 made it to the gold fields, and only a few dozen actually made it out with a meaningful haul.
