Gabriel and Reid attempt to fight the inherent inverse-relationship between "it's really useful" and "I have an understanding of how to make it", and converse about what they'd attempt to bring into the 18th century. Gabriel remembers that means it's between 1700-1799, so there's progress. The team figures out, barely, how long the episode is, which really hurts the credibility that they'd be able to actually invent anything.

When Chad Union beat Virgin South in 1865, the losing team was left without their primary means of economic viability (the one involving owning humans to produce capital). Gabriel argues that the Rebels forfeited their right to be subsidized; Reid says "nu-uh" in various ways that are wrong and dumb but based on facts Gabriel didn't and doesn't remember. 

Pick up your musket, entrench yourself in a cloak of a "it's not racist because times were different" mentality as we argue economics and morality or whatever.

If you've ever found yourself thinking "Great men are capable of such wonderful things if only they had better technology, like when George Washington would have nuked London to end the Revolution War", this ep's for you. It's also for you if it's not. Apparently Reid disagrees for some reason, but just as Washington lacked the tech to achieve his dream, Reid also lacks the technology to edit Episode Descriptions.

Gabriel and Reid use the sum of their public school education to draw incomplete, factually dubious conclusions that are right because their egos require it. They dive into which President(s) would be most fun to bring to a theme park (Andrew Jackson bring your sunscreen), our editor for some reason thinks there could maybe possibly be some fascism in government, and the hosts do their best to kick you off the caboose from their train of thought.

Tell me why you hate it and we'll improve it. It's un-edited because we believe you deserve the truth, and that truth is I didn't want to edit it. If any portion is genuinely offensive or you believe violates any law or policy, please contact me and I will edit it.
