March 8th, 2014 a standard red eye flight from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to Beijing, China went missing from radar less than an hour after takeoff while flying over the South China Sea. What followed in the coming days was a series of questionable information and even more questionable explanations as authorities tried to piece together where the plane went with its 227 passengers and 12 crew member....

Well first and foremost it's fucking nuts...I mean religion in general is pretty fucking crazy but this is crazy double stuffed with bullshit and sprinkled with nuts. From the man who founded it L. Ron Hubbard to the man who currently runs the circus David Miscavige there is no shortage of madness. If you enjoy any of the following- Cults, Blackmail, Intergalactic Warlords, Space Travel, Possessio...

Listen lets be honest, there have been an uncountable number of women in this world who have let positive, long standing impacts on our society. Impressive feats that seem the works of fiction. Unfortunately there isn't enough time to cover them all. But we have selected four perhaps lesser known, or not fully understood women to discuss today. Take some time and listen in to truly appreciate the...

We end this month with a celebration of  heroes and barrier breakers in Black History. From Hercules Posey who was the personal cook of George Washington to James Hemings the first American to master cuisine in France and is considered America's First Chef to the courageous men of The Tuskegee Airmen Program, who battled for equality in the U.S. to fight for their country in World War 2 and went o...

July 27th 1996, Atlanta, Georgia. The Summer Olympics are in full swing when a bomb goes off in Centennial Park amidst spectators, musical acts, and vendors. 111 people are injured and 2 killed. Those numbers would have been a lot worse had it not been for the actions of Richard Jewell, a security guard who noticed an unattended backpack. Richard went from savior to public enemy number in what fel...

The Eiffel Tower, The Space Needle, Monorails, Video Calling, The Ferris Wheel, Broadcast TV, X-Rays. Now that may seem like a random assortment of things but I shit you not, each of those Monuments, Inventions, Technology, were first revealed at a World's Fair. It doesn't end there....Do you like Hamburgers? Cherry Coke? The Ice Cream cone. All of these were either invented for or made their debu...

We're packing a bowl of Fantastical History to sooth your weary mind for the next 3 and 1/2 hours...yeah that's not a typo, sorry about 27 minutes into this thing I blackout into a nerd trance and I don't come to for another 3 hours. This isn't just the lore you're somewhat familiar with, we go deep, so so very deep, maybe too deep? But I digress, that's what JRRT would have done and dammit this i...

Recognized History tells us that Adolf Hitler killed himself in his bunker with Eva Braun. But it was the Russians who reached Berlin first and discovered his body, totally burned, which doesn't make identification problematic. Oh and because Hitler's dentist also said it was Hitler. Do you see what I'm getting at here.? While it's likely the story we know is the factual story, there's a lot of th...

Donuts!! What can't they do? They are there for you with coffee in the morning. They don't judge you when you reach for one at 10:00 PM when you're stoned. They also helped 100's of Cambodian Refugees escape the Khmer Rouge and find footing in the USA. Join us as Adam teaches Chris about Ted Ngoy, The Donut King of California. The American Dream comes full circle, you know, like a donut.  Support...

You ever think about time travel? Yeah us too. How bad do you think people in the past smelled when their baths were considered a luxury, only to happen a few times each year. Or how about when people literally shit in buckets inside, only to fling open their windows and toss the contents into the street. And what the fuck were humans wiping their asses with? You've got questions we've got disgust...

The Manhattan Project was a government program developed by the United States, Canada, and United Kingdom during WW2 to research and build the first Weapon of Mass Destruction, The Atomic Bomb. To try and understand how man was able to harness the power of the atom, we're discussing how something so powerful could even be discovered and how that discovery was almost immediately weaponized.  J. Rob...

Join as we wave goodbye and flip a gentle bird to 2022. This year had some ups, it had some downs, it had some inbetweeners you can't even remember. It was our first year without Betty White, and I'm not gonna hide it, it was rough. RIP Betty miss you girl. But that's not what you're here for, you are here to be entertained or mildly amused at least. Part 1 is gonna cover Best Movies, Best Shows,...

Manuel Antonio Noriega, the cunning and brutal in-all-but-name Dictator of Panama. Ol Noriega rose to power the old fashions way, he fucking spied and had dirt on everyone. This is a prime example of the old adage Knowledge is Power. Now Noriega's story would be thrilling as is, but over 31 years he rose to become the most powerful man in Panama, he was also working for the CIA...and not just as a...

Twas the week before Christmas and all through the Shoe-Dio, AG and Chris  discussed something beautiful. Three Holiday tales from folklore are told, but not before someone packs a tight bowl.  Look we get it, the Holidays are stressful, even more reason to take a little time for yourself, bake yourself like a warm oatmeal raisin cookie (yes they're the superior cookie) and tuck in with us for som...

As we sit on the cusp of the World Cup Final, we decided to pivot from the standard football fare and instead bring you a feast of Oh Shit, with a side of tear gas, and for dessert a wonderful human mass crushing and suffocating anyone and everyone. We're covering the Heysel Stadium Disaster, Hillsborough Disaster, and the Estadio Nacional disaster, each more devastating than the last. Regardless...

December 7th, 1941. There are certain moments in time, lynchpin moments I call them. Where an event causes the course of human history to change. There aren't a lot but this one I firmly believe qualifies. We're covering this thing from top to. bottom. What caused Japan to plan the attack? How did we get caught so off guard despite Pearl Harbor being the headquarters of the Navy's Pacific Fleet? H...

Oh David....where do we start with David, the Davidians, Waco, the Siege?!! There's a lotta meat in this loaf if you catch my drift...its not a sexual thing...I just mean there's a lot about this guy that you can sink you teeth into...again not a sexual thing. It's a fucking insane story about Cults, Polygamy, Armed Conflict with the Government and all at the center is David Koresh. Let's get to i...

Welcome to our first annual Thanksgiving episode. Now sure we could talk about the first Thanksgiving and how the pilgrims and Native Americans sat down, broke bread and ate Turkey but let’s be honest, that story is probably horseshit. Instead we’re going to focus on the plight of our Indigenous brothers and sisters. Back in 1876 the U.S. Government (yes them again) sent the Army to forcibly move...

The Counter Intelligence Program or COINTELPRO was the 30 yr passion project of one J. Edgar Hoover. Who fucking hated everyone who even looked like they were having a good time or if you didn't like war...or racism....or opposed any of his views. He basically used the FBI as his personal tool to spy and incriminate those he didn't like. This program had dirt on Progressive Activists,  Politician,...

An airplane hijacking, $200,000.00 Ransom, a daring escape plan. No this isn't a movie ...well I mean it has been made into a movie but it's a true event and the only unsolved sky jacking in American history. Oh and that wasn't even is real name, his real name was Dan Cooper, and even that wasn't even his real name, that's just the name he gave the airline when he got his ticket....they didn't eve...

Pornography...even as I'm typing this out I'm thinking about how something that was once so taboo, so risqué, perverted, has become almost common place now. I mean it's everywhere. The thing you're looking at right now, your phone or computer, yeah that's like THE gateway to Porn. Well once upon a time porn was only in print and even then it was pretty mild....until a guy named Larry Flynt took it...
