About this Podcast:

Three very unhistorically inclined guys pick a random year in history and tell you what happened. It's kind of surprising the stuff you learn. And how much they don't know. But they're fun to listen to. Stumbling lithely across the ever changing Sea of Time. It's fun. It's silly. And kind of educational. No kidding Do your ears a favor, give it a listen. Your brain'll enjoy the break.
