Archie Medes, Reggieamoeba, Placenta Frank, and the brothers five, Victor Radish.

Learn about the lev 'er and the leave'er, the fire hose and the huge clay water reservoir.

Learn about how the Island of Crete received more historical attention than it should have, the concept of cleavage and Airs Toddle's Adamic Theory. 

The story of Sparky continues. We follow him into the Army, and the actions which saved the Americans from the Russians.

Sparky coins the phrase "Fight Fire with Fire", but soon realizes that it's not meant to be taken literally.

In addition to fighting fires, he worked for the USO entertaining the troops. 

Jack astounds Marc with the story of his father, "Sparky", and his mother the T.E.A. drinker.

Learn about the phrase "Liar Liar Pants on Fire".

Jack and Marc discuss the history of flight. Meet some of the lesser known aviation pioneers like Bob Barrel Biplane Pendulum, (not to be confused with Bob Barrel Biplane Rooster), and learn why using roosters as powering engines on a biplane ultimately failed.

Of course no history is complete without an examination of the Greeks' contribution, including Pythagoras Theorem, (not the one who discovered Pythagoras' Theorem, but Pythagoras Barrel Theorem), and Icarus.

Learn about early efforts at money transferring including Mango Kleinhardt and his use of Rats.

Of course evolution is discussed at length and the history of cleaning the shit from baby diapers is analyzed.

A trip up North gives us the origin story of Sloshleg Fuckhead and Big Ether Shit Storm.

Having been abandoned by the scuba diving touring company, Jack and Marc pass the time discussing the story of aquatics as invented by the Greeks. They make a passing reference to the evolution of man, as seen through the eyes of the neanderthals and the homo sapiens. It's not well known, but the the neanderthals have an excellent milk delivery service.

Jack discusses his lesser known economic award, the LKEA Award, bestowed because of his ground breaking work comparing the relationship between the neanderthals and homo sapiens (as well as Cro-magnon, Peking, Peaking and Peeping Man) to that between Canada, the United States and Mexico.

Jack and Marc get a visit from history's most famous chicken. This chicken was really famous. Really really famous. No chicken in the history of humanity has ever been as famous as this chicken. Some people said this chicken was so famous it couldn't possibly be a chicken. A surprise twist at the end reveals that they were right. No chicken from Earth can lay ten eggs a minutes. That's an egg every six seconds.

After discussing Biblical plagues, Jack and Marc figure out this whole chicken thing.
