Explicit content warning

11/16/22 • 54 min

Content Warning: This episode contains either some new legendary argumentative moments on the podcast or very probably the stupidest. We go to 1856, where Scottish-Australian James Harrison invents the fridge, American mercenary takes control of Nicaragua, pre-human remains are found in Neanderthal Valley in Prussia, and the Battle of Black Jack, antislavery forces, led by John Brown, defeat proslavery forces in Bleeding Kansas. Also Bobby has been experiencing incontinence, and what's the difference between a fridge an ice house, neanderthals and humans, and Prussia vs Russia?
