Ain't It Rich

2020 is here! Yet we're still in the Drak Ages when it comes to scientific literacy. So in a mild departure from form, your hosts, Aria Salan and Mickey Flykick discuss how science challenges formally accepted truth's and what to scientific consensus actually means. Mickey also says Horse Scientist and Aria says Thombus.

Romanov-tober keeps a coming as host Aria Salan and Mickey Flykick are joined by MachoCast's Jack Marsho to learn about the post Peter Years of the Romanov empire. Starting of with Russia's first Empress and moving swiftly to the son of the son that Peter the Great may have crushed to death with his bare-hands. 

Puppet rulers, an 11 year old womaniser, dead husbands, more infant mortality and a peak at the bad ass queen to come.

It's finally here! After a little taste of things to come last week we officially enter Romanov-tober. That's right for the entire month of October, your hosts Mickey Flykick and Aria Salan are covering the entire lineage of the Romanov family, one of the longest reigning empires in history. This week they're joined by joke-slinger extraordinaire Jack Knight to learn about Peter the Great.

Last week we learned about his boaty behaviour, this week we learn where that all lead. From his insane gap year, pardon me, "Grand Embassy", the establishment of the Russian Navy, the building of St Petersburg, 2 litres of urine, wheelbarrow shenanigans and brutal vengeance.

You know we had to do it to ya eventually. This week Aria Salan and Mickey Flykick discuss the Romanov's; Russia's longest ruling dynasty spanning from the 1600's to the 1920's.  We look at the beginning of the empire that ended with one of the most important revolutions in history.

This week we explored the first of the Romanovs including a 16 year old boy who didn't want to be Tsar, The Quietist Tsar, a scholar named Feodore III who was disabled as a baby then crushed in a horse riding accident and we get into the traumatic and boaty childhood of Peter the Great.

This week Aria Salan and Mickey Flykick are joined by comedian Jacob Lingard to learn about the rich people who shy from the spotlight. Authors, Musicians and others are all discussed as well as the reasons why and how these people reportedly lived. It's pretty yucky, comrades.

Hosts Mickey Flykick and Aria Salan are joined once again by Chris Martin (Big Fork Theatre, Claw Machine) to learn about the business of not being caked in filth. From Ancient Egyptian beginning, fox testivles in the middle age to the eventual murder of Bar Soap at the hands of those god damned Millenlials. But like any good Murder story there's a twist in the tale.
