Smiths, Lays, Pringles - all of them unwitting participants in the greatest insult ever bestowed upon a man, but who slinged this despicable chip insult (or chipsult if you will) and what was their reason to hurl such salty-insolence? Take a listen to find out. Hosted by Dave Zwolenski and Matthew (Redd) Peterson.

Why was the first chip intended as an insult?

"We Fact Up" was born out of the notion that before the internet existed people would have to actually try and work things out for themselves when asked a question. Like, "what does 'O.K.' stand for?" or "who invented the high five?". Listeners send in their questions, the gang then try to work the answer out without the help of Google. After a lot of discussion and general stupidity, the team then see how close (or how far off in most cases) they were to the answer - hopefully to hilarious, or mildly amusing, results.
