On today's episode we're diving in on this badass fucking Scotsman, the Outlaw King, Robert the Bruce. This man wanted nothing more than to kick some English ass, but he was smart about it. He bided his time until it was right then well, let's just say there's a reason we're talking about him today. So join us as we talk about his bonkers ass life and of course, everyone's favorite thing, the English getting their heads bashed in. Enjoy!

On today's episode we have a super rich English woman who was smart as hell in school. And also pretty much incompetent at everything she did in the real world. Or inept at best I suppose. But hey, she committed real hard to the causes she believed in so at least there's that? She also thought very highly of her contributions, and you'll get to hear Tim get angrier and angrier as she makes these grandiose statements about what she's doing and her commitment. And Tim anger is always fun. Enjoy!

We're closing out anniversary week with an episode on a heavily requested scumbag, the Killer Clown himself, John Wayne Gacy. Gacy had a real shitty childhood, and unlike what a decent person would do, he decided to make this everyone else's problem too. So he ran around just raping and murdering, murdering and raping. Everybody already knows the broad strokes of this dude's shitty life, but we still found a few surprises for ya along the way talking about it. Enjoy!

What's that in the sky? Is it a bird? A plane? No it's, well actually yea it's a plane. And this bad motherfucker, Gregory "Pappy" Boyington, is flying it. This dude was smart as hell and became a plane engineer, but that wasn't enough for him. He wanted to fly them. And also shoot Japs. So he took every single opportunity he had to do so until it kinda bit him in the ass. But hey, what's life without a bit of risk eh? Anyway, Pappy put in some serious work and lived a hell of a life, so enjoy!

On today's episode we'll be talking about the guy that might be the origin of everyone thinking Florida is full of psychopaths. John Ashley had a pretty unassuming name, the looks of a Bond villain, and a rap sheet that is truly impressive. This swamp dweller just decided one day that he was gonna commit to crime as his personality, and boy did he. Stealing, killing, walking out of prison, it's al here! This was a fun one that you won't want to miss. Enjoy!

Today we're going to Ireland, a land of mostly faerie nonsense, to talk about an actual real badass. The Pirate Queen, Grace O'Malley decided from a very early age that she wasn't going to have a life of regular chick shit. She wanted to sail around and do pirate shit. And fuck with the British of course. But she was smart, she knew when it wasn't possible to fight and she'd have to diplomacize and what not. Either way, she was a dope ass broad. Enjoy!

Today we're talking about a dude who made even special operations dudes and a guy with the Medal of Honor feel kind of nervous. Jerry "Mad Dog" Shriver tore shit up in Vietnam, but he stayed in country waaaaay too long. While he may not have lived a long life, he damn sure packed more into it than most people could in several life times. Enjoy!

It's time, dear listeners, for another badass on the water. And he did it without Kevin Costner's gross webbed feet and gills. Oliver Hazard Perry grew up watching his dad being a bad motherfucker on a ship and decided he wanted to follow in his footsteps, and then one up him. He wound up fighting the British, the terrors of the sea at the time, and he stomped their dumb limey dicks into the dirt. Well, water I guess? Anyway, this dude was dope, so enjoy!

We're headed back to ye olde west to talk about this dapper motherfucker, Ben Thompson. All he wanted to do was gamble and hang out with famous people, but dudes just kept having to try him, so he just had to shoot them. Even the juries kept agreeing that he was in the right. And he managed to get that agreement without Buffalo Bills money, Johnny Cochran, and a glove that didn't fit. So you know he actually deserved it. Anyway, this dude was dope, so enjoy!

Today we got one bad seagoing motherfucker for you, dear listeners. Doris Miller was one of many sailors present at Pearl Harbor. And when he looked up into the sky and saw it full of planes with their blinkers on he said, "Not today, Japan!" and hopped on a gun and started firing. It's debatable how effective he actually was on said gun, but his bravery caused a ripple effect that massively changed the treatment of black members of the US Navy. His actions and his incredible impact on history definitely earned him a spot on this podcast. Enjoy!
