It's Greg's birthday and he gets to curate the show this week. As a result there is quite a bit of chat about Pearl Jam, a great historical crime fiction book from the early 90's called The List of Seven, and a new historical crime fiction show on TNT called The Alienist. (Greg's been going through a late 1800's phase recently) We also chat about The Killers concert that Jimmy went to in Miami and we revisit a whole bunch of news on Castlevania, What We Do In Shadows, and The Dark Tower. 

We follow up our conversation with our question: What are the 5 best movies/books/tv/etc featuring real historical figures in fictional stories?

Oh and we have a store! Check out our shirts, mugs, bags and phone cases here: Buy cool crap!
