DISBELIEF!

In this latest episode, the Unexpected duo, Professor James Daybell and Dr Sam Willis scratch their collective heads really hard and blink their collective eyes many times to grabble with befuddlement the unexpected history of DISBELIEF! Which is all about abortion rights and the overturning of Roe Verses Wade by the US Supreme Court; it's about the first use of poisoned gas in the trenches and first-hand witness accounts of people not being able to believe their eyes; and it's also about atheism and disbelief in god in the past.
