History class just got hilariously inappropriate. Kristin Caruso, co-host of the true crime comedy podcast, Let’s Go To Court (16M+ downloads), and Norman Caruso, creator of the Gaming Historian YouTube channel (1M+ subscribers), team up to deliver a history podcast that is well researched, wide-ranging, and deeply silly.

Garrett Morgan was a prolific inventor. He invented the gas mask. The three-way traffic light. The self-extinguishing cigarette. He even created a hair care line. But, as a Black man, he had to be creative in how he presented his inventions to the pu... more

Ok you guys destroyed me !!! Then I destroyed myself by watching the hachi movie .
Norm you did a great job with that episode I was crying then bawling with the movie .
Then i enjoyed the donkey Kong episode, really made up for that sad episode. 5 stars !
Hopefully gaming historian lives on in this podcast.
I would love to hear Norma’s voice talking about video games in the 80s and 90s.
I was a longtime huge fan of Gaming Historian and the work Norm did on that supberb show, so when he mentioned this in his goodbye video I had to go look it up.
The Super Soaker show and the Donkey Kong one that just went up were good. I was trying to get into more of the other show topics, but the political views and jabs at the political views they don't like got super annoying and unncecessary. I'll probably check out the 2nd part of the DK show, but doubt I'll listen to much more.
I don'... more
Kristin and Norm do such a great job of informing and entertaining. You’ll learn and laugh your way through intriguing history. You’ll even get a good DP every now and then!
As a fan of the Gaming Historian, I came to this podcast as suggested by his final YouTube video. I really enjoy listening to both of you banter while learning more about history in further depth. Thank you and keep the content coming!
