That Happened! With Max and Arash

Alright! We learn a lot about Max. His grandpa was in the army during some World War, he's related to the British royal family, and also related to Karl Marx. Pretty fascinating stuff. We tell jokes, too.

In this ep we branch a little outside of history talk, and instead have a discussion about discourse, and how postmodernism has turned much of today's thinking vapid and robotic. Maybe our takes are wrong, but they're hot!!

"Abraham Lincoln". Ring a bell? Probably not. Thankfully, we have, and we talk all about him in this deep dive. In fact, Arash has even been to the very house were ol' Abe was taken after he was shot. The decor was awful and personally we wouldn't want to die there. Anyway, enjoy.

Hark my fellow countrymen! In this bespoke ep, Max recites some of his favorite poetry, and we bask in the words of great creative minds like the 1930s boarding school boys we are.

We're back! We were on a temporary hiatus, not because we were busy uncovering gems of history to talk about, but because Arash is a lazy and incompetent editor. Anyway, in this episode we recorded months ago, we finally had a guest, local SLC comedian Colt Smith to talk about some guy named Churchill. We mostly trash him and thankfully for us, he's dead so he can't defend himself. Enjoy!

Another week, another ep! This one didn't really have a central theme and was more of a riff, but we talk about presidential decorum in the white house, the Netherlands, Charles DeGaulle, etc. It was really a hodge podge of fascinating topics. You had to be there. Well actually, you can be there by listening.

Stick em up! Gangsters, wiseguys, pushers and pimps used to say things like that. In this special episode we go inside La Cosa Nostra, also known as the American Mafia. Arash did some research by watching a documentary series from the 80s, and we also referenced the HBO series "Boardwalk Empire", so there's that. This is basically the most comprehensive podcast on mob history you will ever find is what we're trying to say. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------: Facebook https://www.facebook.com/thathappenedpod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thathappenedpod/ Twitter https://twitter.com/ThatHapPod YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCQt7iTjr74Eo2gFNt7YUAQ Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/thathappenedpod

Arigato! We've both spent the last week playing the wonderful game "Ghost of Tsushima", so we talk about nothing but medieval Japan, as well as some interesting aspects of old Japanese culture. This was a fun one as we really got to depart from our usual banter about America and Europe.

We're back again! Again! This time we talk very little history, but get quite meta. We first discuss good and evil, movies being outdated and end on America's fast slide into fascism. It's a wild ride! If you have any input please shoot us a comment or email with your point of view - we'd love your feedback!

And we're back! The plague has affected all aspects of society, but most importantly, it's made it so hard to podcast. Not to worry though, the boys have found a way to do the cast remotely! In this episode we talk about Marx, Hegel, and dialectic materialism. It's a fun time.

Another ep! We recorded this in the beginning of March. Also, we got some new mics so the pod sounds a lot better. In this one we talk about a bunch of shit like cavemen and how it's not wrong to read Lolita. Oh! Our camera was down for this one so if you're into our youtube, there's no video this week.
