The Fritz Boyz Podcast

Take a trip down memory lane with the Fritz Boyz. When the Boyz were growing up in PW they kept it simple: skate all day, video games at night. Like kids all over the world in the late 90s, one of the systems they played was the Nintendo 64!. On this episode, Nanner talks about the history of gaming consoles and how Nintendo 64 came to be (as well as countless personal anecdotes). Life got you str...

It's amazing what you can get away with before you become a Saint. For Olga you can argue that it was all warranted. Revenge is a dish best served cold and boy was it cold when the Rus ruled over Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus. Olga is okay in our book, and after you hear her story she might be okay in yours as well.

Aleister Crowley was a complicated man. On one hand he was a genius, incredibly gifted at magic, world-class mountaineer, and the chief fritter in charge. On the other he was a whiny little bitch who never had to work a day in his life. The man was much more than just some creepy dude who thought he could do magic, and you're gonna have to hit that play button to find out more.

There are people out there that root for the "bad guy". There are even people who root for the ultimate bad guy, the devil himself Satan. Since the emergence of Christianity calling somebody a devil worshipper was quite the acquisition. You could get somebody killed back in the day. Even now depending where you are it might not be taken lightly. Although, for the most part in modern times worshipp...

This week The Boyz dive into the Stephen King universe! Just in time for spooky season, The Boyz take a brief look into one of the most succesful and influential authors to ever do it! And, along the way we will discuss his work's, movies, shows, etc. The man is a living legend, a relic, and an all around good dude who has been supplying the world with creepy stories for decades. But King's journe...

"What would you do, if you were asked to give up your dreams for freedom?" Haha just kidding, but seriously what would you do if you were hiking in the mountains of rural 1960's Mexico and you came upon a ceremony in a cave where somebody was being brutally murdered while a woman who is high as a kite sits on a throne dressed as an Incan goddess? You would run 25 kg to the nearest police station,...

With spooky season upon us, it is only right to talk about some creepy shit. This week, the boyz dive into the world of haunted paintings! The Anguished Man is a seriously disturbing piece of art that was created by an unknown artist who allegedly killed himself shortly after finishing it. Many believe that he even used his own blood mixed in with the oil. The current owner of the painting swears...

Next time you look out at the ocean just try to imagine the dorsal fin of a 60 foot shark cruising along just beyond the breaking waves. Even spotting the dorsal fin of a Great White would be impressive. Now if you take said Great White and add some weight plus at least 10-20 feet of length then you have yourself a Megalodon. Granted the look is a tad different as well, but nevertheless the Megalo...

On the night of February 24th, 1978, five men went missing after attending a basketball game in Chico California. To many, including the authorities, it seemed as if the boys just vanished into thin air. Until that June when a disturbing discovery was made that left more questions than answers. Put on your investigator hat as we analyze the case that would become known as the American Dyatlov Pass...

We've made it to 50 episodes, and we're taking a look back at each one. The good, the bad, and the ugly (Steven Seagal). We're also pulling back the curtain and talking about how well some of our episodes did with you, the adoring public. Sit back and enjoy this recap of every Fritz Boyz episode we've done so far.

This might be the most wholesome episode that we've put out! This week we are talking about bears! Everyone loves a good bear and this week we are talking about two of them. First, we go over the true story of WINNIE THE FRITZIN' POOH. That's right! Winne The Pooh was kinda based on a real bear! Then we talk about Wojtek. Wojtek was an Iranian brown bear that was destined for an early grave. The c...

What is the cause of our obsession with the mafia? Is it the violence? The money? The drugs? The women? Maybe. Or maybe in the early days it was the rags to riches stories behind the mobsters. The children of immigrants from Italy, Ireland, and various other parts of Europe. Their parents made the harrowing journey across the Atlantic to be greeted in New York city by lady liberty. They came here...

Narcotics have played a huge role in human history, and WW2 was no different. Every side experimented with drugs to create a "super soldier" but it seems like the nazis took that to another level. Those goose-stepping, Hugo Boss wearing, ass hats loved METH and a bunch of other stuff. The king of turd island was no different, Adolf Hitler (AKA Wolf as he referred to himself) was a full-blown junki...

Chuck Norris jokes should be changed to John McAfee jokes. Bold statement we know, but take a dive into the John McAfee story and tell us it's not a wild ride. How do people like McAfee maintain their stressful high paying jobs while battling a drinking/drug problem? They write the code for an anti-virus program then sell the company for $100 million. Obliviously. Once that thrill has passed you h...

Lord Byron! Probably the coolest of the romantic poets. Not only is Byron known for his contributions to 19th-century literature, but he is also known for general badassery. Byron lived an exciting life. Mixing and mingling with London elite society, sleeping with whoever he wanted, drinking his way through Europe, boxing, gambling, drinking, owning a bear and so much more. Put on your fanciest ou...

Piracy just ain't what it used to be, and we're not even talking about Napster/Limewire type piracy. In Somalia being a pirate wasn't some far-off dream you conjured up after watching too many Disney movies. Being a pirate was a necessity, and scurvy and the plank were the least of your worries. Join our crew as we set off into the Gulf of Aden just north of Somalia to protect our waters in the na...

Addiction is a buzzword in this day in age. No matter who you are, I'm certain that you know at least one person who has lost their life due to the ongoing opioid epidemic. In terms of addiction treatment, by FAR the most common treatment is 12-step programs: AA, NA, CA, HA, and the list goes on and on. But what do you really know about these groups? What goes on inside the closed doors of your lo...

Whether you think Bam is the king of turd island or the coolest brah east of the Mississippi, there is little doubt that the man was a hugggge influence on skater/punk/alt/stoner/goth kids of the 90s. He lived the dream life for a long time, touring the world as a pro skater, and starring in hit blockbuster movies, video games, and TV shows. But when tragedy struck in 2011, Bam's life began a slow...

This week we finish the awful story of Pol Pot and his band of psychopaths: from his assumption of power to his sweet downfall. We also take a look at the most notorious prison in Cambodian history: S-21. It's another heavy, yet important, topic this week on the Fritz Boyz Podcast. So tune in, drop out, and fuck Pol Pot!!!

Late in WW2 desperation had set in for the Japanese. The Allies were halting the expansion of their empire, and it was time for a hail mary. Actually thousands of hail marys. Somebody on the Japanese side had the brilliant idea of sacrificing brave young men in old planes with the promise of honor for their families for generations to come. Propaganda played a huge role in the Great War on both si...

It's the beginning of a two-part series on the world's dumbest dictator: Pol Pot! This week we dive into Pot's origin story in all of its glorious stupidity, all the way up to the moment he and his Khmer Rouge took over Cambodia and enacted a bunch of dumb shit policies that would have a devastating impact on Cambodia. I think this episode is an important reminder of how one man, aided by circumst...

Do you guys know those "coexist" bumper stickers? Catholics and Protestants are certainly not a fan of said bumper stickers. Especially back when Guy Fawkes was doing his thing. His face has been immortalized in film and among elite hackers. He's a symbol of anarchy and an effigy to burn every November in the UK. Guy Fawkes is remembered for a plot to blow up the king and parliament a little over...

Cyntoia Brown was a troubled teen who got a raw hand in life. In fact, she was at a disadvantage before she was even born, due to her mother drinking heavily throughout her pregnancy. Eventually, Cyntoia found herself in the youth criminal justice system where she escaped and began to get pimped out by a real P.O.S that went by the name of Kutthroat. One night her already miserable existence took...

Do you know how to find a prostitute? Or how to successfully start an affair? More importantly do you know how to split bamboo? Well you can find this and more in the Kama Sutra. Make no mistake though, it's not just a book written around 1,800 years ago that's just page after page of sex positions. No sir, it's much more than that. It's progressive as can be, and it's main focus is living a life...

The worst people that you never heard of! Join the boyz this week as we descend into the hate-filled world of neo-nazis ... and let me tell you ... these guys fritzing suck. They make other neo-nazi groups look like poster boys of tolerance. From the group's founding on a racist website to their many, many crimes, this is a dark one with some good old nazi slander sprinkled on top!
