That time when some of my students independently re-invented "schwa primum indogermanicum" during an in-section exercise still lives rent-free in my head.

For a convenient and informative take on disciplinary history, I recommend the History and Philosophy of the Language Sciences podcast. It spans from 19th c. philology to generative linguistics and regularly brings on guests writing the next chapter of linguistic history (figuratively or literally).
