Ep. 503 Miltiades
Let Them Fight: A Comedy History Podcast
Today we're going way back in history to pre-democracy Greece to talk about Miltiades, a man who didn't take no shit and always got his revenge. He had a pretty good early life due to his dad being a famous badass chariot rider. Then things took a bit of a turn, but he kept pushing on, making his own legacy as the guy who took every opportunity to dick kick Darius and his Persian empire. And boy did he make the most of that opportunity. Tons of fun to be had here, and we even created a new word. So, enjoy!

Ep. 502 John Bell Hood
Let Them Fight: A Comedy History Podcast
Today's person of interest is another traitor, I mean, Confederate general. John Bell Hood cut his teeth early in the Civil War being the guy that always attacked hard. Spoiler alert, you don't always want to attack hard. He even inspired a quote from Robert E. Lee himself. Though he probably wasn't very happy about it. As always we had a lot of fun making fun of this dumb rebel, so give a listen and enjoy!

Let Them Fight: A Comedy History Podcast
Today we'll be talking about a dude that got shipped off to Australia after running amok through England. And I'm not one to side with the Brits, but well, Thomas Jeffrey for sure earned himself that transportation sentence. Then he got to Australia and totally calmed down. I'm kidding, he became an even bigger turd and ran around even more amok. Strap in and get ready since this episode has everything: bush ranging, murder, tapping trees, and maybe some light cannibalism. Enjoy!

If you can read that name you know what it means, we'll be fucking up a lot of pronunciations today. Hong Xiuquan was a simple man, in that he was incredibly stupid. Then he decided one day that not only was he not actually stupid, he was goddamn divine. So of course he calls for a crusade, or whatever they'd call it in China. And so begins one of the most bonkers time periods in Chinese history. It gets wild, so enjoy!
