Show notes

No doubt about it, we live in a world of rapid change.

Show notes

Pop quiz: what’s the grossest thing you can imagine? For many of us, the answer would involve biting into fast food and discovering that what we thought was a tasty piece of chicken was actually a not-so-tasty piece of sewer rat. But such stories are just urban legends, right?

Along with more traditional skills like shooting and martial arts, many special operations units learn and perfect things that are only really useful in the kind of exceptional circumstances they’ll uniquely be more predisposed to encountering. Things like…

144 - Top 10 Things CHINA Invented First Nov 04, 2019

Show notes

Now, I love Chinese food. I mean, who doesn’t? Weird people who don’t like lots of soy sauce and yummy carbs like rice and rice noodles? But what have the Chinese given to us, really? Fortune cookies? Jokes about children working in sweatshops? I’d like to think that they have accomplished more than that in their long history, and sure enough, they have…

140 - Top 10 Cartoonishly Evil Crimes Committed by the FBI Nov 02, 2019

Show notes

The FBI are supposed to be the good guys, the ones protecting the public from evil. They’ve got none of the crazy skeletons in the closet that the CIA suffer from, and aren’t as generally mistrusted as the ATF.

Over the decades, they’ve committed plenty of crimes that stretch all the way from ‘ordinary, everyday evil’ to ‘cartoon supervillain evil’.
