About

Welcome to Forgotten History where the stories they don’t want you to remember finally come to light. Hosted by Colin Heaton and Michael Droberg, we expose the hidden truth behind some of the most shocking, forgotten, or intentionally buried events in history. From government coverups and military conspiracies to bizarre true stories that defy the textbooks, we dig deep to reveal what really happened. With new episodes every week, our mission is simple: tell the truth, spark critical thinking, and challenge the sanitized version of history you've been fed. Subscribe if you're ready to uncover the past they hoped you'd forget.
Topics we cover:
Political Corruption
Government secrets and scandals
Military operations and false flags
Suppressed inventions and media manipulation
Real stories of resistance, betrayal, and forgotten heroes
🎥 This is not your classroom history—this is the real story.
