History Defeats Itself

Join along as three guys that fell asleep during history class bring you a comedy podcast about their quest for meaning. In each episode, the hosts dive into a historical topic ranging from the mundane to the fascinating. Only one of us does the research leaving the other two in the dark to learn along with you, the listener. In every episode, the hosts discuss how they may have, but more likely didn’t learn from our history.

The Rosenberg Case: A Tale of Murder, Corruption, and Conspiracy in Guatemala

Join writer and narrator EDGAR CASTILLO, a first-generation Guatemalan American, as he explores the byzantine true story of the bizarre assassination of Rodrigo Rosenberg — an influential Guatemalan lawyer who was gunned down while on his Sunday morning bike ride in May of 2009. At his funeral, he posthumously released a YouTube video that declared, “If you’re seeing this video, it means that I’ve been murdered by President Alvaro Colom,” Guatemala’s sitting President.

The Rosenberg video unleashed a major political upheaval and one of the most unpredictable murder investigations in history, but that was only the beginning. You won’t believe the conspiracy Edgar uncovers from interviews of those close to the case - including the person who hired the hitmen.
