    Ep. 633 Derrick Bird (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    Welcome back, dear listeners! Today we're going to jolly old England to talk about Derrick Bird, a man who didn't really do anything exciting most of his life, and then one day woke up and boy did that change. It's a bit of an odd story that ends in a real big bang, so enjoy!

    Ep. 632 Felipe Espinosa (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Welcome back, dear listeners. Today we're headed back to the ol' wild west. But we're not talking about your usual gunslinger/lawman/outlaw today. Felipe Espinosa was a whole different breed. A special kind of garbage monster. Or maybe a man avenging a whole heap of wrongs. Who knows? History has a funny way of painting the same person in different lights sometimes. But whether his cause was righteous or scumnutty, he did some real messed up stuff. Enjoy!

    Ep. 631 Pedro de Valdivia (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    It's time to go back in time to when Spain produced some real shit kickers. Of course, they were also garbage monsters as people. Like our boy today, Pedro de Valdivia, a man who found himself on the wrong side of history pretty much for his entire life. But man, this dude could kill. And he did pretty damn frequently. Also starring in today's episode, yet another Sabaton song. Ready to sponsor us oh European metal dudes? Anyway, join us on this journey and enjoy!

    Ep. 630 Paul Denyer (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Today we'll be going "down under" to talk about this shitty Australian, Paul Denyer. He really is all red flags right from the beginning, and that just never changes. All pretty standard affair for his type of scum, but then outta nowhere he throws in some wrenches. Enjoy!

  5. Episode · Sep 1, 2026

    Ep. 629 Rube Burrow (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    Today we've got a real fun old western dude who unfortunately got started in the game as the "wild" days were closing out and the law was ramping up. But boy did Rube Barrow make a go for it and make sure his name was remembered. Also, this episode is chock full of everyone's favorite type of incompetence, the law enforcement kind. If Rube's life were a movie, it would play Yakety Sax every time the law came after him. Enjoy!
