  • Gotta love the bravery of a couple of "leftists" that will take a bold stance that genocides that happened in the past are bad, but then will talk about a show and dance around how one of the stars (actually 2) actively and enthusiastically supports a fascist, genocidal, apartheid state that is actively committing genocide right now, but then wouldn't even say his name or why he is horrible, and quickly changed the subject. So brave.

  • Comfort Podcast

    This is my comfort podcast. Which is a testament to the presentation style of Tristan and Scott, because they can sometimes get into some very heavy subjects, and there’s even a section of the show named “The Part Where Tristan Makes You Sad”. It’s a good time. Learning is fun, dunking on the history channel is fun.

  • I still believe in Aliens, just not Ancient Aliens

    They asked for 4-star reviews and that was a mistake. they aren't asking for that anymore. I enjoyed Ancient Aliens as a kid. I thought it was fascinating and believed most of it. I knew it was full of varying degrees of speculation, but I had no idea just how bad it was upon revisiting it as an adult through this podcast! Thanks for the entertaining and informative analysis and for bringing on QUALIFIED experts guys.
