Episode notes
January 14 is packed with forgotten, uncomfortable, and world-shaping moments—and this episode of What You Didn’t Hear digs into all of them. From the official end of the American Revolutionary War and the rise of the Knights Templar, to Martin Luther’s legacy, colonial violence in Southeast Asia, the invention of the clarinet, mass production in early America, and pivotal moments in exploration, war, politics, and music history. Host Zane Gould unpacks the strange, chaotic, and often overlooked events that happened on January 14, including Mozart, Elvis, David Bowie, World War II, the South Pole race, and the global economic fallout of the 1995 Mexican Peso Crisis. If you love hidden history, strange historical facts, and stories they definitely skipped in school, this is the episode you didn’t hear—but should have.
