Rob Fox, Dan Regester, and Jake Goldman discuss the Land of Punt, the ultra wealthy ancient African kingdom that Egyptian Pharaohs traded with for gold, super inadvisable pet baboons, perfume, and dwarves.

Gordon Parks went from playing the piano at a Minnesota brothel to becoming the first black director in Hollywood. Dan, Jake, and Rob go through the insanely jam-packed life of the man behind the creation of Blaxploitation and some of the most iconic photographs of the 20th century.

Rob, Dan, and Jake break down what it’s like to live through a historic event — the Texas freeze. We break down what happened to us and the people we know this past week in Austin, how awful Texans are at handling weather, how much we want to punch all of our politicians (left and right) in their stupid faces, and if we think Texas learned ANY lessons.

Jake, Dan, and Rob break down the antics of 70s Pittsburgh Pirate pitcher, Dock Ellis. Between advocating for numerous causes to throwing a no-hitter whacked out on LSD, Dock lived a wild life and led an even more redeeming story in his later years.

Enron went from blue chip stock to pennies on the dollar overnight. From cooking the books to shifting their business model several times the rise and fall of this Houston based energy company was an absolute nightmare for its 29,000 employees in 2001.

With Joe Biden becoming the second Catholic president ever Rob, Dan, and Jake break down the hilariously absurd bigotry that was freely lobbed at Al Smith and JFK, the first two Catholics who ran for president — basically the KKK and Protestant leaders tried to convince America that Catholics were slaves to a wizard king (the Pope) and would betray America.

Rob, Dan, and Jake break down the history of Saint Olga of Kiev, the first queen of Russia and the woman who introduced Christianity to the country — specifically her year long rampage in which she kept (really easily) tricking the people of the country that assassinated her husband into getting brutally murdered. She isn’t the patron saint of revenge but she should be.

Much like the Russian man of mystery himself, this episode gets off the rails quick and refuses to die.
