Door Key
I find myself drawn to the more social side of history than dates or battles. While I do think dates and battles are important, I find questions like ‘When did Catherine of Aragon realize she'd lost Henry VIII’s love to Anne Boleyn?’ or ‘Just what exactly was Aaron Burr's deal?’ to be what really fascinates me about history. This is the lens that I view history from on the Door Key Podcast (and the accompanying Substack newsletter) because I'm a dork with a deep love of history who wants to talk about it.

Baron von Steuben

June is Pride Month, so this episode is about Baron von Steuben.
Baron von Steuben was a Prussian Baron who came to the US to help train the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War.
He was smart. He was brave. He was charismatic. He was so instrumental in helping the Continental Army win the Revolutionary War that there's a statue of him in Lafayette Square in Washington, DC. He was also openly gay in the 1700s.
