U Dum Dum

We talk about the bad History Unplugged episode about the 1619 project and the history of slavery in the US. It has some problems, to say the least.

Today we take a break from history to talk about an issue we think will become very relevant soon — Puerto Rican Statehood. Sorry for the long wait!

We come back after a long break for a quick unedited episode. We will start posting again soon.

We talk about the election of 1864 and the end of the civil war, as well as what lies ahead for the United States.

Today we attempt to tackle a titanic topic, the US Civil War in typical U Dum Dum fashion--by not! Today we'll just go over a few key facts and ideas about the Civil War. Later we'll come back for a more in-depth look. Enjoy the Show!

We talk about the final years of the antebellum United States as secession looms and sectional tensions rise to a fever pitch.

We continue our series on American History and politics, with Civil War on the horizon and slavery beginning to eclipse all other political issues. One of the main sparks to the fire? A man who just wants to build a railroad.

In part 1 of a series about US political history, JT and Dad talk about the rise of the first parties, the electoral college and the looming threat of civil war.

We discuss Joe Biden, the presumptive nominee of the Democratic party, and whether he can win. We also talk about the coronavirus pandemic and it's effect on politics. And how will the Democratic party change in the future? All this and more on this episode of U dum dum.

Dad and JT start out the series with some lively debate about current politics, WW2, and who can beat Donald Trump.
