In this gripping episode of The History AI Podcast, Chuck and Marco take you into the heart of one of the Civil War’s most pivotal and brutal clashes: the Battle of Shiloh. Discover how Union and Confederate forces collided near a quiet Tennessee church in April 1862, forever changing the course of the war—and the nation.

We’ll explore the key commanders, from Ulysses S. Grant and William Tecumseh Sherman to Albert Sidney Johnston and P.G.T. Beauregard, and walk through the chaos of battle—from the surprise Confederate assault, to the desperate defense of the Hornet’s Nest, to the Union counterattack on Day Two.

Plus, we uncover the eerie mystery of the Angel’s Glow—a glowing light that appeared on soldiers’ wounds—and how science, decades later, offered a remarkable explanation that might have saved lives.

You’ll also hear the human side of war: the bravery of generals and foot soldiers alike, moments of heroism and heartbreak, and the legacy that lives on today at Shiloh National Military Park.

🕊️ And stick around after the episode ends for a special treat—our original folk-style ballad, "The Battle of Shiloh," a moving tribute to those who fought and fell on that blood-soaked field.
