  • Summary

  • Mother Teresa, Dr. Seuss, Gandhi. Is it possible these enlightened historical figures were total scumbags? That's what we try to decide in Scumbags of History, where we pick through the dirty underwear pile of lesser-known facts about some of the famous people society has put on a pedestal. Hosted by confirmed scumbags, comedians Brittany Schmitt and Mateen Stewart, Scumbags Of History is a thoroughly disreputable history lesson on the people you thought you knew from history. Episodes on Frank Sinatra, Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill, James Brown, Charlie Chaplin, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Edison, Picasso, and more figures from history, released weekly. You can find clips of the show on TikTok @wisecrackofficial or @scumbags.of.history, see full episodes on YouTube @ScumbagsOfHistory and follow Brittany (@BrittanySchmitt) and Mateen (@MateenStewart) on Instagram.

    Vince McMahon's legal issues, allegations of sexual misconduct, tens of millions in hush money payments, and even allegations of sex trafficking make the soap opera theatrics of his average WWE event look tame. He's also an all-time strange character, regarding whom seemingly thousands of bizarre, maybe-true, maybe-not tales are all over the internet. Producer note: this episode was recorded PRIOR to additional allegations against Vince McMahon coming out. You can find clips of the show on TikTok @wisecrackofficial or @scumbags.of.history, see full episodes on YouTube @ScumbagsOfHistory and follow Brittany (@BrittanySchmitt) and Mateen (@MateenStewart) on Instagram.

    Was Walt Disney anti-semitic? We look at the research and try to decide. Did he hate unions? Definitely.

Love all things Wisecrack

Are all episodes perfect? No. Do I agree with everything? Also no. Are they all enjoyable nonetheless? Absolutely. I don't even take well to podcasts but really enjoyed this channel. This review is left at the time of the Winston Churchill episode.
