  • 054 — Lance Stephenson Should Not Be a Meme
    Basketball is back and so is Sordid History. I'm joined by my friend Noah Elmore to discuss a player that is often celebrated and enjoyed: Lance Stephenson. Noah and I discuss how his two seriously heinous offenses from before he entered the league should affect the way we talk about him, as well as whether we believe someone can change after such actions. There are also several good basketball-related tangents if you're into that sort of thing.

  • 053 — Clarence Thomas Recommends Movies (with Big Wos)
    The Haitian Sensation himself, Big Wos, rejoins the show to talk about the last time Republicans put up a Supreme Court nominee with a sordid past: Clarence Thomas. We go through Anita Hill's allegations against her old boss and discuss how things have and haven't changed. We then discuss the Kavanaugh nomination in general, and neither of us have many nice things to say about the Republican Party of 2018. And you probably shouldn't, either.

  • 052 — Nev Schulman (of Catfish) is Abuse-Free
    Unlike your online girlfriend, Sordid History is real and here to stay. This week, I'm joined by my friend Celeste Crawford to discuss Nev Schulman, the host of Catfish. We go over his recent sexual harassment allegations as well as the one time he punched a woman in the face while attending college. And yes, we digress a few times, but I imagine you'll find the digressions funny and endearing, and not just distractions from the topic at hand, MOM.

  • 051 — Bill O'Reilly is on the Phone (with Lady Broseph)
    Twitter icon Lady Broseph (AKA Kate) joins the show to talk about the general disgusting behavior of former Fox News pundit Bill O'Reilly. We discuss his phone etiquette, his tumultuous marriage and divorce, and whether being a shitty person is why his skin looks so bad. Take a listen because there are some details you have likely not heard, and you will either laugh hysterically or vomit, so you might as well take a chance.

  • 050 — Woody Allen Still Makes Movies (50th Episode Special)
    In honor of the 50th episode of the show, we're talking the most requested topic in my DMs: Woody Allen. And to do that, I've got THREE returning guests: Michael Springthorpe (@springthorpeman), Addison Allen (@addison_allen), and Delmonte Bent (@delbent).
    We marvel at how insane it is that Woody Allen is still out here publicly and the fact that so many of his movies are about having sexual relationships with younger women. Also, we have tangents, and fun, etc etc.
    Thanks for getting the show to fifty episodes. Here's to fifty more.

  • 049 — T.J. Miller Exhibits Narcissism
    My good friend and longtime roommate McKay Giller finally joins the show to talk about all the bad shit T.J. Miller has done. Whether it be slapping an Uber driver, calling in a fake bomb threat, or allegedly raping a woman in college, he is no stranger to being an asshole. And if that weren't bad enough, he also seems like the worst person to be around. So needless to say, this was a fun one.

  • 048 — Ray Rice Rides the Elevator (with Ryne Jones)
    This week, we take a long look at what is likely the NFL's biggest fuck up on the domestic violence front: Ray Rice. And to do that, we are joined by co-host of the Good Takes NBA Podcast Ryne Jones. It doesn't feel like that long ago, but believe me, you will be shocked by how poorly this all went down, from the gruesome video, to the suspension, to the horrific PR by the Ravens. It is much worse than you remember.

  • 047 — Bill Cosby Distributes Pharmaceuticals (with Naima Cochrane)
    Creator of #MusicSermons and culture critic Naima Cochrane joins the show to have a serious discussion of Bill Cosby's long history of sexual assault and what his conviction means going forward. We delve into topics like his role in the black community, how he cultivated his image, and how attitudes towards rape have changed. This is a serious one mostly. Sue me.

  • 046 — Shia LaBeouf Stays Intoxicated (with Delmonte Bent)
    Fan-favorite Delmonte Bent joins the show for a record fourth time to break down the arrests and public drunkenness of actor and performance artist Shia LaBeouf. We recount numerous stories, including the famous one where he got thrown out of Cabaret on Broadway. Then, we have a surprisingly earnest conversation about performance art and the success of Shia's activism. I know, I'm as surprised as anyone.

  • 045 — Vince McMahon Has Questionable Ethics (with Rob Lopez)
    It's Wrestlemania weekend, so Def Pen Sports Editor-in-Chief Rob Lopez joined the show to recount the many, many scandals and transgressions in Vince McMahon's tenure as president of the WWE. We go through the steroid trials, sexual harassment lawsuits, and the murders that happened on Vince's watch. Rob is super knowledgeable and the WWE is ridiculous, so this episode is sure to be enjoyable.
