History Is Dank

198 episodes - English - Latest episode: about 17 hours ago -

Strider Wilson hosts a podcast delving into history through the perspective of a mature erudite bro. He was one unit away from a history minor at U.C. San Diego, but he does’t let that stop him from examining what it would have been like to be a bro posted up on Bunker Hill or uncovering what the chillest aspect of surrealist art is. Buckle up because Strider will not only venture into humanity's shared past. He will venture within himself. Asking real questions such as, “exactly how tight are pirates,” or “what if he stayed that extra semester in school,” “would my life have been danker?” Strider firmly believes that history is tight because we all should for sure blaze our own trails… but in what direction?

Ishi: The Greatest Californian! With Guest Harmony McElligott

April 27, 2021 07:30 - 49 minutes - 44.9 MB

Perhaps the greatest way to describe, "the greatest Californian," is with his doctor's words, "... He closes a chapter of history. He looked upon us as sophisticated children—smart, but not wise.… His soul was that of a child, his mind that of a philosopher.” Ishi's story is a tale of the past meeting the present; a paragon of how we must first look back before we can move forward.  Guest: Harmony McElligott follow him @harmonymcelligott Links to his stand up special below: Pre-Order:h...

Futurism
