Ep. 610 Robert Erskine Childers

JACOB TRIMMER AND TIM GROESCHEL
About this episode

Today we're headed to the early 1900s to talk about a guy who basically just tried to do what he thought was right. Now, Robert Erskine Childers wasn't always on the right side of history, but credit where it's due, he did learn and grow as he got life experience and changed his viewpoints to match up with his moral compass. That's pretty much all we can ask of a person. And of course with this podcast you just know he got a happy ending. Right? Well, either way, enjoy!
