The History Guy

By: Lance and Josh Geiger
  • Summary

  • If you love history, this is the podcast for you! Stories of forgotten history, presented by Josh Geiger with Lance Geiger, The History Guy, from the hit YouTube channel The History Guy: History Deserves to be Remembered. Visit the channel here: www.youtube.com/TheHistoryGuyChannel We believe that history does not have to be boring. At its heart, history is storytelling, and we believe that it should be told with passion and genuine love for the material. History might be tragic, it might be comic, but it is the story of who we are, and we should not be afraid to enjoy that story and be moved by it.

no ketchup!

it was interesting listening to the history guy recount the history of hot dogs in America, especially since I was born in Chicago although I moved away before I was 10 years old. I can still remember going to Wrigley Field and getting hot dogs during the games or just on a street corner or wherever! while I have been known to eat ketchup on hot dogs myself I will never forget our uncle Billy saying that mustard only was the correct condiment for hot dogs. LOL. all kidding aside this was an excellent show and whether you have strong feelings about hot dogs or not this will give you a good feeling for the kind of insight that the history guy brings to both his podcast and his videos on his YouTube channel. I definitely recommend checking him out.
