Part 2 of 4 in the History of the Kings of Britain series.

In this week’s episode of Left Unread, the LU Boys tackle chapters 2 and 3 in Geoffrey of Monmouth’s The History of the Kings of Britain. First, we start back up after Corineus and Brutus beat up some giants, and we go through a list of incomprehensible uncles and nephews, including the gallant Rud Hud Hudibras. We eventually get to Julius Caesar and his landing in Rome, and that’s when things get really stupid.

On January 23, 1959, ten experienced student hikers left the Soviet city of Sverdlovsk on a planned expedition into the Ural Mountains. On February 26 of the same year, nine of them were found dead in the wilderness. The ensuing investigation and scientific inquiry yielded no conclusive results, and to this day, the Dyatlov Pass Incident remains officially unsolved… for now.

Part 1 of 4 in the History of the Kings of Britain series.

In this episode, the Left Unread boys begin their series on The History of the Kings of Britain by Geoffrey of Monmouth, a monumentally stupid story about the mythical founding of Britain by some Trojan guy and the subsequent line of kings and Roman occupations leading up through the Arthurian legend.

In Part 1, we go over the introduction to the Penguin Classics version of the book by Lewis Thorpe and tackle the first chapter, wherein Brutus lays waste across Europe before beating the shit out of a bunch of giants on the island of Albion.

We also get into some more Matt Gaetz drama at the top of the episode.

You can of course follow Brutus and Corineus on Twitter!

First we get into the Matt Gaetz saga, and this one’s got it all, folks. Pay for play Florida politics, sex trafficking, cryptocurrency mines, the intelligence community, dead spies, Tucker Carlson, and more.

Then we talk about the absurd, obscure 19th century Portuguese book English As She Is Spoke by Pedro Carolino.

And finally we finish with the Erfurt latrine disaster.

Part 2 of 2 in the Tiberius series.

In this one, the Left Unread Boys explore the later life and Imperial reign of Tiberius, which is told mostly through his relationships to other major players of the time, and chronicled by a bunch of guys who lived decades after he died and had no problem making up lies about him. So, in short, it's probably all FAKE NEWS, but it's FUN. Enjoy!

P.S. If you haven't already, we suggest listening to Episode 7 first, since this is part 2 of a series.

Part 1 of 2 in the Tiberius series.

In which our intrepid hosts discuss the background and rise of Rome's second Emperor, Tiberius. At it's core, this is just a nice and chill story about a boy and his step-dad having fun and doing politics together.

"Nah man, I don’t pitch until Friday."

"Dock...it is Friday!" 

"What...what happened to yesterday?"
