103: ALL Over the Map with Rock Waterman

My long-awaited interview with Don Bradley! He requested that we first discuss faith, before going to the topic of how historians approach history in our second conversation, and then digging into the actual sources in our third conversation. This was a great beginning! Please consider supporting this podcast: Venmo: @Michelle-Stone-24 Patreon.com/132problems

Please consider supporting this podcast: Venmo: @Michelle-Stone-24 Patreon.com/132Problems Part 1 on Deeds, where we go deep into laying the foundation of what the deeds were, how they worked, where they are recorded, and what sources we rely on to connect them to polygamy. Part 2 will go into specifics and look at the problematic anomalies of the two very important July 12, 1843 deeds -- the deed to Emma and her children, and the hidden deed to Hyrum. Part 3, with statistics professor John Kidd will respond directly to Bill Reel's claims and attempted statistical analysis.

It is amazing to see how truly all things testify of Christ, and how Christ testifies of all creation. This was such a fun and mind blowing discussion. I am excited to learn more.
