    Ep. 516 Sir William Sidney Smith
    Jul 2 2024

    It's time to take to the seas again! This time to talk about Sidney Smith, who got started young and really took a shine to being on the water. And for pissing off a very specific Frenchman. This dude won a ton of accolades across several wars and off the coast of a ton of different countries. Enjoy!

    Ep. 515 Israel Keyes
    Jun 25 2024

    Today we'll be covering another long requested scumbag, Israel Keyes. This shithead serial killer thought he was special, and sure, he did some things smarter or more creatively than the average "I need to stab to get my rocks off" types. But at the end of the day his need to be a shithead murdering psychopath won out over all his meticulous planning, rules, and "don't shit where you eat" philosophy. Also, worst ad for the Ford Focus ever. Anyway, enjoy!

    Ep. 514 Charles Guiteau
    Jun 18 2024

    Well, dear listeners, where do I even start with this one? I guess first off, unless you already know who this is, I assure you that you will not see what is coming next at any point in this story. Because Charles Guiteau was a goddamn crazy person of the highest order. The leaps and mental gymnastics this dude makes throughout his life would make Charles Manson blink in confusion. It's a hell of a rollercoaster, but it's a damn fun one. So enjoy!

Great entertainment

Gets me through my work day. pretty well researched and they put up with me bugging them on social media about minuit points they may have missed. Hearing their labored breathing and burping is just extra
entertainment.

Hilarious if you're dead inside

These two sacks of human vomit are actually pretty funny, if you don't mind laughing at other people's trauma and horrible events... which is fine by me. So I threw y'all 5 bucks since you lazy bums can't upload more than 2 episodes at a time and I need entertainment at work.

PSA: Don't forget to hit pause if you're going thru a drive thru or you might get some weird looks when they hand you your food.

Dan Carlin, but significantly less respectable.

Laughed so hard at the Thomas Cochrane episode that I forgot I was cooking a pork chop and it got burned worse than Joan of Arc....

Horatio Nelson would be the perfect subject for an episode. The man was so bad ass and was basically a walking meme.

You guys are awesome, and I will consider contributing to your Patreon once I financially recover from that catastrophic loss of pork chop.

Amazing, especially if you're a bit twisted

Stumbled across this while looking for war heroes stories, liked the style and then checked the other, less wholesome, episodes; turns out this is my favorite podcast.
These two fat bastards have a great sense of humor and do a pretty respectable job when it comes to research.
Totally recommend it, just be careful on which episode you want to start with and, for the love of God, wear headphones.

As for requests, see if any of the following specimens strike your fancy: Salvatore Riina, Junio Valerio Borghese, Irene of Athens.

9 out of 10 doctors recommend this podcast!

If you're looking to laugh, cry, get excited, take pity, get depressed, hate yourself or others, or just need to see how lucky you really are, just look at Jacob and Tim! If you want a bad ass podcast about crazy ass people, give this a listen because you won't regret it!

Yall Have to do one on Marquis de Sade!! Probably the worst dude in history, and you two could do his story justice. Or make us all regret it.... Either way!

Keep it up!! Yall are awesome!

Be careful.

Be careful on which episode you start with, some are wacky, some are informative, and some are down-right disgusting. But, all are entertaining.

Comedic Violence

Not for everyone, but it slaps like Rick Flare. nothing like laughing at things we probably shouldn't and somewhat learning things.

Absolutely Amazing

In a very roundabout manner, this podcast helped get me a gf. So cheers yall! Anywho, this dynamic duo of fat and artery-clogging humor is perfectly conducive to what I wish my life was. They're hilarious and tell stories about the best and worst in history. Their latest episode over the Hollywood shootout was super well done. I've been listening on and off for years now. These guys are a great comedic pair and dread the day they become successful and can no longer continue the show. Thanks for the amazing content ya'll produce. PS- Eric, yes you. It's your brother Derik. Thanks for showing me this show years ago.
