The Revisionists

Only a couple more classic episodes left, because Brian’s leave keeps extending itself! Everything’s fine though, medicine just takes a while. Anyway, enjoy this flashback to Civil War hero Robert Smalls with Captain America: Civil War hero Andres Becerril.
********
The hilarious Andres Becerril helps us kick off the Civil War by talking about Robert Smalls! Zach racks up a classic mayo moment, Andres does Robert Smalls’ star chart , and Brian reaches into the listener mailbag.

Brian’s still on leave, but not for much longer! While we’re getting ready to bring you fresh episodes, enjoy this all time heavy-hitter with Shannon Campe and Jen Kolic, The Titanic!

***************************

Ahoy! We have a super special episode for you! Jen Kolic and Shannon Campe come aboard to help us talk about the King of the Boats: Titanic! Zach describes the perfect amount of InfoWars, Shannon's story goes to the dogs, Jen sings the national anthem of the booze cruise, and Brian asks for ghost advice

We reach back into the archives one more time for this Halloween favorite featuring the brilliant Rachel Weeks helping us discuss Belle Gunness: farm owner, pig feeder, and *checks notes* remorseless serial killer. Brian’s leave continues, but hopefully we’ll be back to new episodes in a couple weeks! Thanks for sticking with us through this time, we so appreciate your support!

************************************

Happy Halloween everyone! The scarily funny Rachel Weeks (RacHELL SHReeks) returns to the show to help us talk about our special Halloween topic, Belle Gunness! Zach (Zach "Telekinetic" Powers) christens Insurance Fraud Celebration Month, Rachel does some recruiting for Pig Farm University, and Brian (Brain Flayin') reaches into his Norwegian candy bag!

While Brian’s leave continues, please enjoy one of our all-time favorite episodes! In the wake of the 2016 election, we scrapped our usual format and recorded a two-parter with special guests Janae Burris and Christie Buchele. We bring you part two, where Janae and Christie discuss a couple of historical resistance heroes: Ida B. Wells & the White Rose.
****************************
We’re thrilled to be joined once again by Janae Burris and Christie Buchele for another special episode! Janae and Christie are here to talk about Ida B. Wells and the White Rose, and we still try to deal with the election of President Putin’s puffier cousin. In this episode, Zach calls Gollum on his horseshit, Janae practices her new closer, Christie asserts her place on the list of very important people, and Brian abandons all hope of segues. As serious as this episode gets, one of the best tangents ever in the show happens in this episode, so check it out!

While Brian is away on family leave, please enjoy this classic episode from December 29th, 2018: Ernest Shackleton featuring Jordan Doll! We’ll be back soon, and hope you like these nostalgic tastes until then.
*************************************
It’s a New Year’s miracle! The brilliant Jordan Doll returns for this all in-person recording where we talk about Ernest Shackleton! Zach reboots the Ernest series, Jordan reads from his Mountain Dew thesis, and Brian shows off his well of Green Day knowledge.

While Brian's on family leave, enjoy and share this, one of our favorite episodes: Sir Roger Casement with Duke Byron Graham!
********
Hilarious rogue Byron Graham returns to the show to help us discuss Human Rights pioneer, Irish patriot, and very hot guy Roger Casement! Zach helpfully explains the differences between Byron and Brian, Byron repurposes some schoolyard rhymes, and Brian shouts out 2 Chainz!

There’s no way around it, y’all, this topic is sad. The episode, however is very silly. A weird combo, but it’s kind of what we do. Danny Ramos returns to help us talk about Julius and Ethel Rosenberg. Stay tuned to the end for an ill-advised request for audience participation!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Brian is going on very sudden family leave! There’s gonna be a pause in new episodes for a short while (2 or 3 episodes probably, but we’re not sure). That also means he had very little time to give this episode a more polished edit, so you get to see a little more of the sausage being made this time.

We love all of you for listening, and we’re excited to come back. Brian appreciates you keeping his family in your thoughts.

The delightful Priscilla Spangler returns to help us discuss a white dude with connections who kept failing up and ended up betraying his country! Not that one. Or that one. No, it’s Aldrich Ames. Zach emcees the bi-weekly roast of Brian, Priscilla leads us on a stroll down memory lane, and Brian makes some very specific fan art requests.

We love hearing from you! Reach out via our website, Twitter, or Instagram, and take your support further by pledging as little as $1/month on Patreon.

We kick off our miniseries on spies with the “ace of spies” (and definite murderer) Sidney Reilly! Joining us is friend of the show (not murderer) Byron Graham! I’ll level with you, it’s one of the most fun episodes we’ve recorded, but then Brian was hiding in his apartment in fear this week, so it’s about an hour late and is missing extensive show notes. Sorry about that. We love you, and hope this cheers you even a little.

Okay, so it’s not a Christmas episode, but it’s definitely a bizarre one! The holidays kept us from recording, so we wanted to reach back into the vault and share another episode of our (10 year!) old podcast, The First World Privilege Hour with Pat Medaugh. In this episode we discuss Cool Dog, a movie about (wait for it) an all right dog.

We’ll be back in the new year with our regular schedule and the first in our miniseries on spies.
