About WeekInTime

History doesn’t have to be boring — trust us.

Everyone remembers their high school history class — the dreaded 1,000-page textbook, scantrons, the teacher with the clip-on tie, droning on about one boring thing after another. Our weekly newsletter isn’t that.

At WeekInTime, we’re dedicated to bringing you interesting history topics that you can read in under five minutes every week. We write about everything from the nuclear meltdown at Chernobyl to the invention of sliced bread. Each newsletter will arm you with dozens of fun facts to bring to dinner parties…or just enough to get through a conversation with your weird uncle.

Sign up to join a community of hundreds of readers taking a few minutes out of their week to learn something new. 

We are always open to suggestions on how to make the newsletter better. Feel free to reach out to us at weekintimenewsletter@gmail.com.
