In this episode of History Happened Everywhere, Pete and Ryan uncover the jaw-dropping story of how a sleepy desert outpost transformed into a modern global capital—powered by ambition, engineering, and... well, fuel.
Meet the visionary leader who quite literally bridged the gap between water and sand. Marvel at the extraordinary effort it took to build a world-class port from nothing. And brace yourself for the moment a humble British toilet nearly brought the entire project to a screeching halt.
Oh—and if you've ever wondered how many grains of sand are in the desert, or how to whip up a gourmet meal in the middle of nowhere… you're in the right place.
This is history with heat. Don’t miss it.
