We’re back with more thrilling tales of espionage! This week, we’re examining the trickery of Operation Fortitude. To help distinguish between truth and deception, we’re joined by Patrick Hamilton of the Kill by Kill podcast! Patrick explores how fascism changes, Zach thanks an unlikely ally in the fight against Nazis, and Brian gives a nuanced critique of Wile E. Coyote.
We love hearing from you! Reach out via our website, Twitter, or Instagram, or take it to the next level (platonically) by pledging as little as $1 a month on our Patreon.
Our miniseries on spies continues! This week, we look at disappeared British frogman Lionel Crabb! To help us clear up these murky waters, we welcome back Mitch Jones (of the Broadcast Geeks podcast). Mitch gets a celebrity VO, Brian shows his love for 90’s pop-punk, and Zach sets a trap.
*We recorded this episode using Zoom audio, so apologies for the occasional hiccup.
**Also, sorry for the delayed release! We had a scheduling issue due to family matters (actual events, not the TV show).
We love hearing from you! Send us a letter, or fanart here or by emailing [email protected]. Follow us on Twitter or Instagram, or go all the way and support us on Patreon.
Our series on spies turns a more recent mass spying conspiracy! We’re joined by Cody Dericks (of The Halloweeners podcast) to discuss Scientology’s massive Operation Snow White. Zach rates Scientology centers from “hot” to “not,” Cody helps fan cast the movie adaptation, and Brian once again stresses that we don’t support that kind of alternate history.

We’re back, and our series on spies continues! This week, we welcome Lauren Faits (of the Bebop Beat and She-Ra: Progressive of Power podcasts) to help us examine Allied WWII spy Virginia Hall! Zach slowly recovers his hosting mojo, Lauren lauds all the great progress America has made sine the early 20th century, and Brian warns of the siren’s song of Quizno’s.
Update: Friend of the show Danny Ramos is thankfully out of the hospital! He still needs our support, so if you can, please consider contributing to his GoFundMe.

We’re back from hiatus! Helping us kick the dust off the tires is the always charming Daniel Daughhetee to help us explore the secret history of “feminist icon” Coco Chanel! In the miniseries on spies! Bit of a spoiler there. Brian speculates on what different celebrities are packing, Daniel reveals the true homeland of antifa, and Zach’s alternate might include Disney’s first openly gay character (but probably not).
Please help our friend and previous guest Danny Ramos as he recovers from a tragic hit and run. We’re hoping to cover his medical expenses via his GoFundMe.
We love hearing from you! You can write us at our website, or just follow us on Twitter or Instagram.
Danny Ramos, who you may know as a guest from previous episodes, is in critical condition following a hit-and-run which killed Lovisa Svallingson, who was a wonderful person and Danny’s girlfriend. Family, friends, and fellow comics are hoping to raise enough money to cover Danny’s medical expenses once he recovers. If you can, please donate to his GoFundMe. Thank you.
This is it, the last classic episode before our triumphant* return! We’re going back to the very beginning to bring you Jose Macall talking about Julius Caesar (A.K.A. the episode that eventually inspired our t-shirt).
Triumph may vary, not guaranteed in Kentucky.
********************************************************
Jose Macall joins us for our discussion of Julius Caesar, and maybe our most nonsense-filled episode yet! We did it! Zach tells us when it's appropriate to touch a horse, Jose gives the majority of mummies a bad rap, and Brian teaches etiquette for a Celiac-friendly cannibal buffet.
Two more classic episodes before we finally return! Thanks to everyone for sticking with us and everyone who is checking out the show for the first time. Enjoy this favorite from January 2018 with the hilarious Greg Ellis helping us discuss Philippe Petain!

**********************
The hilarious Greg Ellis drops in to help us discuss General Phillipe Petain! Zach offers us a dictator’s retirement plan, Greg finds the most delightful name in all of history, and Brian has clearly been watching Looney Toons.
We’re getting ready to return in the next couple weeks, with hot, steaming, fresh from the oven episodes! I maybe wrote this description while I was hungry. Enjoy this absolute classic featuring the wonderful Zach Welch: Teddy Roosevelt!
*************************************
You're not seeing double, it's two episode 47s (because Brian skipped episode 41)! This time, we welcome the hilarious Zach Welch back to the show to help us talk about Teddy Roosevelt! Zach Powers tries to get us excited about working out, Zach Welch reveals an exotic diet secret, and Brian discovers a shocking truth about Nancy Reagan!
While we prep new episodes (coming soon!), enjoy this classic as Brian wraps up his leave! We bring you the story of St. Olga of Kiev from the hilarious Janae Burris!
********
The wonderful Janae Burris returns to the show as we discuss Olga of Kiev, who we are careful not to piss off! In this episode, Zach reaches into his bag of horse questions, Janae would like you to know about Ladyhawke, and Brian goes in on Rutger Hauer.
