August 16, 2021 074 - Philadelphia!
Send us a text
WARNING: This episode is super gross. There's a lot of vomit talk here.

The City of Brotherly Love...is overrated. Sure it has a lot of history, but you probably haven't heard these parts of its history. I ruin another great place on this week's episode.

This week we'll look at a few stories from Lincoln's life that aren't as well known, including his birthplace, his ghost, and some of the men involved in his assassination.

July 26, 2021 071 - Elephants!
Send us a text
WAIT! I know what you're thinking...Elephants aren't that weird. Well, the two elephants we're talking about today 100% fit into the world we've covered on this podcast. But be warned, these are a couple of sad stories, especially if you're an animal lover. If you're a member of PETA, definitely skip this week.

Giggity! It's episode #69, so we're going to talk about two people who did things that are indirectly related to sex. It's the best I could do. Strap in though, it's a wild ride.

In honor of Independence Day (not the movie), we're going to Vietnam to highlight two incredible stories from soldiers who felt it necessary to prove how awesome America is. This might be my favorite episode yet.

June 28, 2021 067 - Radovan Karadzic
Send us a text
This week is not for the faint of heart. This week we're talking about Radovan Karadzic, one of the key figured in the Bosnian conflicts of the 1990s. You may not have heard of this guy, but his story is insane.
