In San Francisco around the turn of the century, not the Y2K crossover...the century prior, there was a series of ongoing battles among rival Tongs on the streets of Chinatown. Imagine Gangs of New York, but with a different set of issues and similar violent methods of resolution. To an outside observer the scene may appear chaotic, but where the brutality was abundant so was the code and order.  greenchef.com/dank100 and use code DANK100 to get $100 off including free shipping! dadgrass.com/dank for 20% off your first order!  Sources: wikipedia.org, britannica.com, sfexaminer.com ‘Chinatown Tong Wars’ by Paul Drexler 2016

Tong Wars

Strider Wilson hosts a podcast delving into history through the perspective of a mature erudite bro. He was one unit away from a history minor at U.C. San Diego, but he does’t let that stop him from examining what it would have been like to be a bro posted up on Bunker Hill or uncovering what the chillest aspect of surrealist art is. Buckle up because Strider will not only venture into humanity's shared past. He will venture within himself. Asking real questions such as, “exactly how tight are pirates,” or “what if he stayed that extra semester in school,” “would my life have been danker?” Strider firmly believes that history is tight because we all should for sure blaze our own trails… but in what direction?
