Get ready to roll your eyes and roll on the floor laughing with Matt and Jon in this episode of "Nailing History." Matt proudly flaunts his shiny new podcasting gear, leaving Jon green with envy. But instead of upgrading his own setup, Jon chooses to wallow in jealousy while clinging to his ancient microphone with a missing pop filter, and let's not even mention his perpetually glitchy internet connection.

Amidst Jon's passive-aggressive sighs, the duo plunges into the dramatic trial of Adolf Eichmann. Matt's enthusiasm for the topic is only matched by Jon's eye-rolling at Matt's insistence that Eichmann's downfall was his fashion sense rather than his heinous crimes.

As they transition to discussing the oil strikes in Persia, Jon can't help but mutter about how he could've been swimming in pools of money if he had Matt's luck with equipment upgrades. Meanwhile, Matt's dreams of a Persian oil jacuzzi are quickly dampened by Jon's sobering reminder of the geopolitical complexities involved.

And just when Jon's internet connection threatens to sabotage the entire podcast, they tackle the Byzantine Empire's fall. Matt's harebrained theories about olive oil shortages draw a chuckle from Jon, who's secretly grateful for the distraction from his buffering screen.

So join Matt and Jon for an episode filled with historical insights, tech envy, and a healthy dose of internet-induced frustration. Because when it comes to podcasting, sometimes the real drama happens off-mic!
