    Ep. 619 Henry Berry Lowry
    Jun 23 2026

    Today we're talking about a man who had the spirit of an wild west outlaw who just happened to be trapped in North Carolina. He had the unfortunate luck of being born in the state while being of a darker persuasion. He faced a lot of persecution before, during, and after the Civil War, and he knew just how to respond, with a gun. Also he had a cool ass wife, you'll see what I mean. Enjoy!

    Jun 16 2026

    I'm not gonna lie to you, dear listeners. This one is rough. We're heading to Scotland to talk about a real garbage dude, Dennis Nilsen. It's not just that he's gross and awful, but well, you'll see. But hey, for every moment of unsettling creepiness this dude's life put out, you get a moment of Tim raging as he learns about all of it in real time. And isn't that worth the price of admission? Enjoy!

    Ep. 617 Viriato
    Jun 9 2026

    Today we're headed to the land before Portugal to talk about mountain badass Viriato. That's right, this dude is older than Portugal, but he was one hard motherfucker. He went balls out and warred with the Romans, the guys that never give up until they win. That takes some guts. Or craziness. Or both? Probably both. Anyways, he was cool as hell and did some bonkers shit. Just uh, sorry about the ending. Anyway, enjoy!

These two fine gentleman provide the detailed and hilarious stories behind the people from history that we should have but usually have never heard about. Suitable for all ages, races and mindsets and perfect for references in your essays, I've recommended it to all of my family and friends!

I absolutely loved hearing this one.. Coming from the uk, and hearing alot about Carlton..
I've never met him but he seems to be a very sound geezer, not a knob like pretty much the rest of them..

Randomly recommended by audible and now it's pretty much all I listen to at work.
2 large americans chat shit about historical scum bags and occasional heroes. This podcast is well researched and delivered although one is definitely more educated than the other! Thanks Tim & Jacob for all the laughs keep going.
check out Alexander "sawney" Bean, James Scott 1st Duke of Monmouth & Christopher Lee (surprised you haven't covered him already)

Fun & educational!
