A light hearted romp about how a murderous psychopath gets his mojo back and the most complicated academic endeavor in history that didn't include some kind of math. Alexander Graham Bell makes a cameo, and JRR Tolkein gets told to sit down and shut up.  <a href= "mailto:ThisActuallyHappenedShow@gmail.com">ThisActuallyHappenedShow@gmail.com</a> Sources: The Meaning of Everything & The Professor and the Madman.

The One about Words

The greatest adventures rarely start out intentionally. They begin with a simple idea. They are debated. Inevitably someone will say it's impossible, it can't be done, and whoever attempts it will surely perish from the effort. Once the impossibility has been decided there always seems to be one man - one dumb man, who sets out to defy the odds (usually to impress a girl) and will risk his life to do so (and hopes that she's watching). 

The best stories aren't always fiction. Before we begin I would remind you - this actually happened.
