The Revisionists

Two of the most brilliant comics in Denver, Christie Buchele and Janae Burris join us for what was supposed to be a totally normal episode. Instead, we have an emotional, free flowing, occasionally hilarious conversation about the impact of the 2016 election. Minimal editing has been done on the audio, Zach and I (Brian) share a mic, and it was one of the most cathartic experiences I've had. Christie and Janae stick around to record a more traditional episode, out in two weeks. But if you need some release, or to feel connected to someone, this episode is for you.

It’s the climax of our Halloween spooktacular! We’re joined by the wonderful Caitie Hannan as we discuss Elizabeth Bathory and rack up a huge body count! Zach gets into some Middle Ages diagnostic tools, Caitie gives us one of our craziest histories yet, and Brian teases the best-worst medieval band name.

HELL-o, boils and ghouls! It's the second episode of our Halloween Spooktacular, featuring the hilarious Corey Rhoads helping us dissect the Axeman of New Orleans! In this episode, Zach buries a pun so deep, we almost forget about it, Corey plays Doctor Frankenstein, and Brian somehow manages to not make a "Gorey Rhoads" pun while writing these show notes!

Greetings boils and ghouls! To help us kick off our Halloween Spooktacular, we've resurrected our very first guest, the scarily hilarious Kira MagCalen to help us discuss the Dyatlov Pass Incident! In this episode, Zach invites us all to please to study with him in Ural Mountains, Kira makes us take the red pill, and Brian's accents spiral out of control.

The delightful scamp Jacob Rupp is our guest as we discuss the unassailable Queen Lili'uokalani of Hawai'i! Jacob pulls out his twitter and you won't believe what happens next, Zach breaks out his emergency stash of hot takes, and Brian gives us the secrets to terrifying banana bread. As we talk about before on the show, we draw a lot of our guests and our energy from Denver comedy. The community recently lost one of our most beloved members, Jordan Wieleba. As promised in the intro, here are the links to make donations on her behalf, or on behalf of anyone you know and love in the LGBTQ community. Thanks from Zach and Brian.

The fabulous Byron Graham makes his return to the show as we discuss Red Cloud of the Ogallala! Zach issues the least surprising American History spoilers, Byron demands more wackiness, and Brian describes the challenges of getting needed resources on the prarie.

The delightful Jeremy Pysher is here to help us bayonet our coverage of the American Revolution by discussing the Battle of Yorktown (1781)! In this episode, Zach waxes nostalgic about ol' fashioned podcastin', Jeremy defies our efforts to derail him, and Brian faints at the thought of blood. *Apologies for some audio irregularities in the first 8 minutes.

We have a special double-length episode for you, the only way to discuss Alexander Hamilton! Our guest is The wonderful Chicago actress Shannon Campe! In this episode, Zach violates many of Shannon’s rules, Shannon sets the high bar for true stories, and Brian writes a love poem to ham.

Steve Vanderploeg makes a hilarious return to the show as we discuss John Laurens! In this episode, Zach touts the romantic advantage of robots, Steve comes up with a judging system that is more arbitrary than guessing, and Brian shows off his southern accent.
