  • The Ladies that Loved Chaplin
    Apr 23 2025
    What, Charlie Chaplin, too? Yeah, Charlie Chaplin, too. The Tramp has gone too far, and Karen tells us just how far he went in this extra long episode. Despite his glistening career as an actor/director/more, when the camera was off, he wasn't always the paragon people held him up to be.

  • Gandhi-vil
    Apr 14 2025
    This week, we’re putting Gandhi on trial — and we’re not pulling punches. Turns out, the man behind the loincloth was less “peace and love” and more “racism and ego trips.” In this episode, we dig into the messy, manipulative, and straight-up deplorable parts of Gandhi’s life that somehow didn’t make it into the inspirational quote calendar.

  • PicasSo Many Crimes Part 2
    Mar 30 2025
    In this part two in our talk about Picasso, we talk about the man's art and how he related to some of the artists around him, his psychology (with a little armchair diagnosing), and we start in on talking about Francoise, a really amazing woman who got all wrapped up in Picasso's mess. She wrote an amazing autobiography that M will be relating stories from to paint a detailed picture of the guy Picasso was in his later years.

  • PicasSo Many Crimes
    Mar 24 2025
    In the series of challenges by listener JJ, we were tasked to talk about the terror that was Picasso. M is the presenter, bringing in their already burning dislike of the man and sharpening it to a fine point by speaking about the women in his life to show the long shadows that Picasso cast while alive. We speak about his past, we interpret his art, and in the end, what we come out with is that Picasso is a PicAsso.

  • The Hate Also Rises
    Mar 17 2025
    A listener challenged us to get him to hate Hemingway more and we took him on. Lucky for us, it's so easy to hate Hemingway— the man was cruel to his friends, his family, and to his enemies. He just does ridiculous and terrible things, which we will be thrilled to share with you. If a man could fuck up so bad he shoots himself in both kneecaps, he can fuck up anything.

  • Casanovella
    Mar 10 2025
    A challenge has been thrown into the ring! Can we make you hate Casanova? With Remy on the case, we'll drag you down to hater status. The man fucked his way around Europe and wrote thousands of pages of memoirs. He was a sugar baby and a lover of clitties. However...

  • The Chicken and Elephant Problem
    Mar 3 2025
    We return triumphantly to 2025 with a listener question: how many chickens would it take to fight an elephant? First we need to decide on the chicken. Consider size. Spirit. Anger. And then we need to determine how much a group of chickens can take out. Can we fight a chicken? Can a horse? A moose? Join us for the chicken debate!
