S.O.E. - The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
Historically High
03/13/24 • 113 min
I feel like I should only need to post the purpose of the Special Operations Executive to sell you on this episode so here you go "Espionage, Sabotage, and Reconnaissance in German occupied Europe during WW2. But I'll also leave you with what Churchill told the guy in charge of this "Ministry" when it was formed "Now go and set Europe ablaze." Plus there's a great looking new movie coming out about these men and women (yeah, some of the greatest spies were women what of it) by Guy Ritchie.

COINTELPRO - FBI’s illegal spy program
Historically High
11/16/22 • 109 min
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, even MLK Jr. There's some heavy shit to unpack in here, let's get to it.

Milton Hershey
Historically High
10/23/24 • 117 min
Everyone take your seats because it is time for the sweet story of Milton Hershey and Hershey Chocolate. Milton grew up needing direction in life which he found in candy making. He started with caramel and failed more than once before eventually becoming the Caramel King of Pennsylvania. That wasn't enough for Milt because he had bigger dreams. From building a town to creating his own sugar distribution in Cuba, Milton Hershey was a fascinating man. Was he kind of a dick? Oh yeah. Did he change the world for quite a few people? You better listen to find out!

The Silk Road
Historically High
11/20/24 • 144 min
If you had to compare the ancient Silk Road to something we're all familiar with today, it would be the internet. The Silk Road was a network of travel routes that spanned across Asia through India, the Middle East, Africa, the Mediterranean and all the way to Europe. This route was the main mode of transportation not just for the all the goods (silk being just one of many) being traded 4,000 miles away, but for technology being sourced from different countries, not to mention the ideas and intellectual advancement that spread from those traveling the road. Kings, Khans, and Emperors came and went, countries fell and rose, but the road remained. It's not an exaggeration when we say the world would look much different if not for the Silk Road.

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.
