Interesting choices of topics but after listening to a few I have given up. The hosts had limited research on the topics and therefore, added nothing to the discussion. There are much better options out there, I wouldn’t waste time on this.
I love how you are adding in some of the societal issues. I was so glad to hear you include the racism and homophobia behind the hatred of disco. It’s so important to include this, and you do it well while making a comedic podcast.
The topics are really interesting but the constant joking and giggling is really distracting. Want to keep listening but don’t think I can
It is a very good pod but I don’t like how much u guys curse. But other than that it is really good, also u inspired me to make a pod. Cya!
I’m a big fan of history, I love this series - I’ve been binging it over the last couple of weeks and so glad there are still so many more episodes to catch up on!
Love Ian and Liv, they’re so good at this!

A history-focused show that probes disasters big and small, blending thorough research with dark humor. Across episodes, hosts explore what happened, why it happened, and whether it could have been avoided or blamed on particular decisions or actors. The tone balances serious analysis with witty banter, making heavy topics approachable while still delivering deep dives into engineering failures, policy missteps, and social dynamics. A standout trait is the dynamic between hosts, who mix storytelling with accessible explanations and playful interaction, often tying modern lessons to long past events. This combination is likely to appeal to listeners who enjoy rigor paired with personality and a contrarian, human-centered look at calamities.
