Chris and Rashaad venture into the windswept world of Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, Miyazaki's post-apocalyptic epic. In this episode, we dig into Nausicaä's environmental themes, her role as a Miyazaki heroine, and the early seeds of Studio Ghibli magic. We also chat about giant bugs, big battles, and a world where nature fights back. Get ready to be hooked on Miyazaki at https://www.seriallyhooked.com/miyazaki.

We are VERY MUCH back for Tokyo Films with Jared's pick for this week. This pick came with a few guests! Josh and John stop by to give their insight into this film. Josh had just come back from Tokyo and we enjoyed hearing about his journey through the countryside and the city itself. The pick came from the director of Jared's favorite Studio Ghibli film, director Isao Takahata's “Pom Poko” Ladies and Gentlemen, this film was absolutely nuts. This film is a 5 out of 5. A true wacky masterpiece. We loved talking through the animation style, the deeper themes, the very obvious presence of scrotum, and other things. We hope you enjoy!Film Discussed: Pom Poko (1994)Letterboxd: Eric Peterson:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠letterboxd.com/EricLPeterson/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Jared Klopfenstein:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠letterboxd.com/kidchimp/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Ethan Jasso:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠letterboxd.com/e_unit7/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Caleb Zehr:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠letterboxd.com/cjzehr/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Ricky Wickham:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠letterboxd.com/octopuswizard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Cody Martin: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠letterboxd.com/codytmartin/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Here is a COMPLETE LIST of every film that we have done an episode for.

While moving to another town, a young girl, Chihiro, and her family take a shortcut and stop near a tunnel that leads to a forgotten resort.

Hayao Miyazaki's 2001 Japanese animated film, Spirited Away, is filled with wonder, fear, loneliness, compassion, and love.

Thomas and Frank kick off a running series to assemble a living “Hall of Fame” of 100 movies covered on Challenge Accepted. In this first pass, they lock in the opening 20 picks across adventure, animation, sci-fi, horror, and sports drama. Along the way they talk performance standouts, scenes that shaped their taste, and how future rewatches and listener votes could bump titles up or off the board. Timestamps and Topics 00:03:52 Big Fish and why it still wrecks us in different seasons of life 00:05:07 Hook as 90s Goonies energy and a Robin Williams showcase 00:06:49 Tombstone and the definitive Doc Holliday performance 00:08:13 Raiders of the Lost Ark and the problem of recasting Indy 00:12:52 The Prestige and discovering a top tier Nolan on rewatch 00:14:48 Interstellar nomination and why it grew with repeat viewings 00:17:12 The Shining as prestige horror and a genre pivot point 00:18:23 In Time gets discussed but does not make the cut for now 00:20:00 Across the Spider Verse moves in after a better audio experience 00:22:47 Planes, Trains and Automobiles lands as a comedy essential 00:24:43 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) and its surprising emotional weight 00:28:38 Studio Ghibli slot: Spirited Away talk and the case for Kiki's Delivery Service 00:30:24 Dune: Part Two enters as modern epic sci-fi 00:34:38 Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and how the evolving list could reshuffle later 00:36:55 The Empire Strikes Back as the Star Wars representative 00:39:11 Jurassic Park and the marriage of practical and digital effects 00:41:02 The Iron Claw and a note on wrestling stories we will cover next 00:42:52 Superman (1978) closes the 20 with an all time origin story 00:48:27 Wrap up, what is coming next, and how listeners can influence the rankings The First 20 (Working List) Big Fish Hook Tombstone Raiders of the Lost Ark The Prestige Interstellar The Shining Spider Man: Across the Spider Verse Planes, Trains and Automobiles Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) Spirited Away or Kiki's Delivery Service (Ghibli slot) Dune: Part Two Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 The Empire Strikes Back Jurassic Park The Iron Claw Superman (1978) Plus a few near misses and future candidates Key Takeaways This is a living list. Titles can move as we review more films and as listeners weigh in. Emotional resonance matters as much as craft, from TMNT's farmhouse sequence to Big Fish's generational pull. Genre representatives help keep variety, like Empire for Star Wars and a Ghibli pick for animation. Craft notes: Jurassic Park's blend of practical and digital still sets the bar, and Vol. 3 sparks a James Gunn redemption chat. Community plan: we will combine Frank's rankings, Thomas's rankings, and a listener ballot to shape the master list. Quotes “The little things are the big things.” “He smashed it, dropped the mic, and went to DC.” “If you see a puddle shake, you're waiting for the T-Rex.” Call to Action Enjoying the Hall of Fame project?

In this episode, Masie and Stuart take a boat to the fantasy lands of Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea book series for Studio Ghibli's 2006 adaptation titled Tales from Earthsea. Along with the director Goro Miyazaki, this film has quite a negative reputation among Ghibli's otherwise illustrious catalogue of animated productions. But does it deserve said reputation? Well, our hosts on their travels unfortunately find a film with a strong lack of visual identity and craft with a script that is... confusing to say the least. Tune into our hosts journey through turbulent waters as they discuss its strange adaptation decisions as well as how the film points to Ghibli's weaknesses as a studio.   Linktree: https://linktr.ee/cinema_bones Follow Us on Social Media @ Cinema_Bones on Instagram and Letterboxd for podcast updates.   Additional Reading/Sources: Interview with Toshio Suzuki about the Production of Tales from Earthsea Archive of Ursula K.

(01:30) Deze week organiseerde China een spectaculaire militaire parade om het einde van de Tweede Wereldoorlog te herdenken. Beelden van de militaire parade werden massaal gedeeld door de staatsmedia. Hoe zet China dat oorlogsverleden in voor het huidige Chinese zelfbeeld? Daarover te gast is China-kenner Manya Koetse.     (14:50) De shortlist van de Libris Geschiedenis Prijs 2025    (23:11) De column van Sana Valiulina.    (29:43) Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away en The Boy and the Heron, een paar filmtitels uit dezelfde stal: die van Studio Ghibli. Deze beroemde animatiestudio is 40 jaar, en daarom zijn de films in Nederland in de bioscoop te zien. Wat is de betekenis van deze Japanse studio geweest, en hoe past het in de geschiedenis van anime? Japanoloog Otis Eversteijn vertelt.  (38:45) Deze week krijgen we recensies van Sanne Frequin. Zij bespreekt twee historische boeken en een tentoonstelling:  Floris V ontvoerd en vermoord - een bundel ingeleid door Wim van Anrooij  De middeleeuwen - Dan Jones (vert. Roelof Posthuma)  Artus Quellinus - Beeldhouwer van Amsterdam - tentoonstelling in het Paleis op de Dam    (52:53) Het was de droom van Adolf Hitler; het bouwen van een Führermuseum. Hitler die was afgewezen door de kunstacademie was vastbesloten het grootste museum ter wereld te bouwen. De tot nu toe weinig bekende Duits kunsthistoricus Erhard Göpel speelde een sleutelrol bij het wegroven van de kunst uit bezette gebieden. Wie was Göpel? Hoe slaagde hij erin om schilderijen die de nazi's op het oog hadden te ontfutselen?  Cultuurwetenschapper Ruud Breteler is te gast.  (01:05:05) Deze week de OVT-doc: ‘De Vrolijke Vernietiging' is een project van kunstenaar Maurice Hermans waarin is te zien hoe traumatisch het uitvlakken van de mijngeschiedenis was voor Zuid-Limburg. Er is ‘fantoompijn' in Heerlen, omdat vertrouwde ijkpunten zoals de Lange Jan en de Lange Lies – de hoogste schoorstenen – opeens weg waren en daarmee ook de identiteit van de stad. Hoe kun je verder met een geschiedenis zonder tastbaar houvast?   (01:37:05) Aan de hand van de documentaire De Vrolijke Vernietiging gaan we in gesprek met Casper Gelderblom, wethouder van de Gemeente Heerlen. Veel mensen in deze regio hebben moeite met de energierekening betalen, terwijl de mijnen tijdens de hoogtijdagen van de kolenindustrie recordwinsten behaalden. De burgemeesters willen dat de winsten van de mijnen alsnog terugvloeien naar de regio en hebben de investeerders van de particuliere mijnen een brief gestuurd over de zogenaamde 'ereschuld'.  Meer info: https://www.vpro.nl/ovt/artikelen/ovt-7-september-2025   (https://www.vpro.nl/ovt/artikelen/ovt-7-september-2025%20)

On this off-beat, surprisingly aligned episode, Ginny sits down with producer Brennan McPherson to unpack Light of the World—a hand-drawn, theater-released animated feature that tells the life of Jesus through the eyes of a teenage John. Brennan shares how a small nonprofit rallied 400 artists over four years to make a reverent, funny, deeply human film that families can actually enjoy together—because the goal isn't more screen time, it's real-life connection. From the historically plausible ages of the disciples to Studio-Ghibli-level visual care, the film becomes a coming-of-age story about courage, friendship, and choosing the harder right—exactly the kind of conversations we want after a night at the movies. See showtimes or grab tickets here: lightoftheworld.com. Brennan also shares the project's heartbeat: using beauty and simplicity to move people off devices and into embodied relationships. You'll hear how his family's six-line “Salvation Poem”—now translated into 100+ languages—became a memorable tool kids (and parents) can keep in their back pocket (salvationpoem.com). If your home values time outdoors, creativity, and the kind of stories that linger on the walk back to the car, this conversation will meet you right where you live.

In this landmark episode, we sit down with Usman Riaz—the visionary Pakistani creator behind The Glassworker, the first hand-drawn Muslim animated feature film. A composer, artist, and rebel storyteller, Usman takes us inside the years-long odyssey of building an animation studio from scratch in Pakistan, navigating comparisons to the prestigious Studio Ghibli, challenging the Euro-American monopoly on fantasy, and reclaiming the right to dream in our own languages.We unpack what it means to be a Muslim artist in a post-9/11 world, how The Glassworker blends South Asian, Ottoman, and Islamic aesthetics, and why stories rooted in our worlds should never need Western validation. With the release of his film on the horizon, Usman shares the moments that almost broke him—and the fire that kept him going.

César Jung-Harada has a wildly adventurous life: He's a justice-oriented philosopher-inventor traversing the world's oceans to help humanity adapt to climate change. He has built oil-spill robots, shape-shifting boats, floating cities, and hydrogen devices. The inventions range in technology and scale, but the heart and soul remains the same. César uses imagination and inclusion to scaffold all he does, believing that children, students, refugees, artists, and local “non-experts” belong at the design table and have contributions that are just as - if not more - valuable than those more credentialed.Listen to hear César talk about everything from equality and inclusion, to animism and Shintoism, to “returning to the animal” that we are. Mentioned in this episode:Studio Ghibli exhibitCésar Jung Harada: An Ocean City Reimagined exhibitBalon Balon Ijo, Floating Solar HydrogenProtei, Shape-Shifting Sailing Robot“Coralbot” Coral Reef Mapping RobotOyster Hatchery "Floating Marine Laboratory"Ocean Imagineer.

What do Studio Ghibli's Princess Mononoke and Japanese yokai have in common? A whole lot of wild spirits, messy gods, and deeper cultural roots than you might think. In this episode of For the Love of History, we dive into the myth and magic behind Hayao Miyazaki's masterpiece. From the terrifying boar demons to the haunting kodama, Princess Mononoke isn't just fantasy—it's drawing on centuries of Japanese yokai folklore, Shinto beliefs, and the eternal clash between nature and industry. We'll explore:

Amanda and Patrick are back for day 3 of Anime August Week, and this time they're diving into the world of revered director Hayao Miyazaki, starting with his 1984 film Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind! Believe it or not this is the first episode in GateCrashers history talking about Studio Ghibli or Miyazaki! Amanda and Patrick are huge fans of Miyazaki's films, so they are very excited to talk about this movie. Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind is often considered the beginning of the Studio Ghibli era, even though Miyazaki made it before founding the studio. As such, Amanda and Patrick talk about how it feels so classically Miyazaki, fully formed and fledged right from the start, even though it was only his second ever full-length film. There are plenty of classic themes in this film we've come to appreciate in Miyazaki's canon, including environmentalism, Marxism, and our favorite, some funky little airplanes! To that end, this Amanda and Patrick episode has all the classic Amanda and Patrick themes too: yelling about the English dub, learning things in real time about the manga that they absolutely did not read before recording the episode, and going on tangents so deeply unrelated from the topic of the episode that they have to hard segue back to talking about the movie. Ya know, a classic Amanda and Patrick episode! Amanda and Patrick do genuinely believe that this is one of the Miyazaki's best films. They talk about how important and relevant Miyazaki's message in this film is, even 41 years later, as we continue to live in a world affected by ecological disaster, war, and hatred. But importantly, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind has a message of hope for a humanity that chooses to coexists with nature and the Earth instead of dominate it. Come and join us as we continue our annual dive into the world of Japanese animation! And keep an eye (or ear) out for tomorrow's episode about another Hayao Miyazaki movie!

For our final episode of Season 5, before THE YEAR OF METAL GEAR, we look at the seminal Studio Ghibli film, Kiki's Delivery Service. We discuss what it means to come of age in a context where you are a literal outsider and how the film indirectly meditates on what it means to doubt your creative powers, lose them, and ultimately get them back.

Every so often a film comes along that feels like it carries the spirit of Studio Ghibli and old-school Disney charm. For me, that was The Glassworker — a film that first landed on my radar a year or so ago. I became intrigued, dove into the incredible 90-minute behind-the-scenes documentary (which is inspiring in its own right), and now I've finally had the chance to see it at a preview screening in LA ahead of its U.S. release on September 5th.Directed by Usman Riaz, The Glassworker is Pakistan's first hand-drawn animated feature, an anti-war romantic drama that blends delicate artistry with heartfelt storytelling. While not without its imperfections, the film shows immense promise, and you can clearly see that Riaz is a filmmaker at the start of what I believe will be a wonderful career.I share my thoughts on the film, why it's worth supporting, and how backing projects like this ensures that new voices in animation get the chance to build a lasting body of work. If you're drawn to hand-crafted animation, heartfelt romance, or stories about the cost of war and the resilience of art, The Glassworker might be for you.The Glassworker releases in U.S. theaters on September 5th.Watch the making-of documentary here: The Glassworker – Behind the Scenes: https://youtu.be/rxAOUJt1PaU?si=plGMiL7JHRCh-EPN

Welcome back to The Cinedicate. On today's episode, we step into the quiet devastation of Studio Ghibli's Grave of the Fireflies. Joined by Brit from The Grindhouse Girls podcast, we delve into the haunting story of Saita and Setsuko—two children caught in the firebombing of Kobe during WWII.Together, we unpack why director Isao Takahata chose to focus on ordinary lives rather than battles or politics, and what the film's silence around Hiroshima and Nagasaki means for how we understand war. From personal childhood memories to the enduring relevance of this film in today's world, our conversation explores trauma, national pride, and the fragility of innocence in the rubble of conflict.Whether you're a lifelong anime fan or simply curious about what sets Grave of the Fireflies apart from typical war movies, join us as we illuminate the human cost of war, one firefly at a time, here on The Cinedicate.What to expect from the episode:A deep, empathetic exploration of Grave of the Fireflies as a non-traditional war film, focusing on the overlooked human cost of conflict—especially from a child's perspective—without relying on typical war movie tropes.Thoughtful discussion on the cultural context and historical trauma behind the film, including personal stories, the impact of national pride, and comparisons to current global crises like Gaza and Ukraine.Critical consideration of animation as a storytelling medium for traumatic real-life events, the film's enduring relevance, and a candid look at societal indifference toward suffering—past and present.Episode Chapters00:00:00 - Introduction to Grave of the Fireflies00:02:33 - Personal Connections to the Film00:05:24 - Childhood vs. Adult Perspectives00:08:00 - Historical Context: Firebombing of Kobe & Societal Collapse00:14:27 - Autobiographical Roots & Plot Overview00:16:01 - Pride, Nationalism, and Failure of Community00:20:40 - Innocence, Isolation, and Societal Neglect00:23:21 - Survivor Guilt & Fate of War Orphans00:26:04 - Modern Relevance: Children & War in Today's World00:28:24 - Japanese Cultural Trauma, Media, and Artistic Approach00:33:43 - Symbolism of Fireflies00:37:22 - Indifference, Privilege & Societal Response00:41:01 - Human Nature During Crisis: The Aunt & Others00:43:34 - Blame, Guilt, and Responsibility00:47:18 - Systemic Neglect & Societal Failure (Then & Now)00:50:44 - Atrocities, Indifference & Speaking Out00:58:23 - Parenting, Trauma, & Cycles of Harm01:03:28 - The Ending: Legacy, Memory & Haunting Presence01:04:57 - Animation vs. Live Action: Medium for Trauma01:09:33 - Contemporary Reception & Wokeness01:15:05 - Animation's Storytelling Power/Pop-Culture Tangents01:15:45 - Recommendations and Educational Value01:20:23 - Closing Tangents01:27:28 - Final Thoughts & Outro----------Listen to Brit on her podcast, The Grindhouse Girls.----------The Cinedicate on InstagramThe Cinedicate's Discord Community Hosted on Acast.

Grave of the Fireflies (1988)Movie 120 on Metacritic's all time movie list. This week, we review Grave of the Fireflies (1988), Isao Takahata's devastating war-time animated drama from Studio Ghibli. Tsutomu Tatsumi and Ayano Shiraishi voice Seita and Setsuko, two siblings struggling to survive in the aftermath of the firebombing of Kobe during World War II. With harrowing scenes of loss, resilience, and the collapse of innocence, this film raises haunting questions about the human cost of war and the fragility of childhood.

It's so easy to forget sometimes that the most important thing you can do sometimes is just not give up...On this episode we dive into the world of hand drawn animation being produced by a country for the very first time.  It's time for 'The Glassworker'.'The Glassworker' is the story of a young glassblower in training and his relationships over the years, as his land goes through war and strife.Evoking memories of Studio Ghibli and Cartoon Saloon this is a personal and inspirational story on so many levels we had the pleasure of sitting down with co-writer/director Usman Riaz about not only the origins of the story but the origins of him mounting his own animation studio which is a first for Pakistan and a reminder in the power of simply not quitting as this film is easily over 10 years in the making.'The Glassworker' is playing at the TIFF Lightbox now.

All aboard the Cat Bus for a moving conversation about one of the greatest animations of all time – and the emotional madness of trying to bring that tale to the stage in London's West End. If you're in London at the moment, you need to see the current theatrical adaptation of My Neighbour Totoro currently showing in the West End. Produced by the Royal Shakespeare Company with puppet designs by Jim Henson's Creature Shop, this magical re-telling of the iconic Studio Ghibli animation was written by our guest today, Tom Morton-Smith – a storyteller whose past work includes Oppenheimer (not the Christopher Nolan movie, but an acclaimed stage drama) and Ravens, a Cold War thriller set at the 1972 World Chess Championship. Taking on Totoro was an undertaking as big and daunting as the titular forest spirit himself. Set in post-war Japan, Hayao Miyazaki's story told the tale of a father and his two daughters who move to the edge of an enchanted forest, to be closer to the hospital where the girls' mother is undergoing medical care. As uncertainty gathers, strange creatures reveal themselves to little Satsuki and Mei – leading them on an adventure of wonder and awe. In the spoiler conversation you're about to hear, Tom details how he translated that wonder and awe to the stage. He's also open about his persoal experience, writing the play amid huge change in his family life. The grief and loss – or potential for loss – that sits in the background of the Totoro story is something Tom was moving through himself as he sat down to pen this adaptation.We break down the tale's themes of environmentalism and the kindness we owe to each other. We also get into the darkness of Ghibli that is often erased or reduced in how the west talks about films like this one. Finally, we talk about “ma” – the Japanese word for “emptiness” – that Miyazaki fills Totoro with, and why it might just be the secret to the joy of this film, now more than ever, in a frantic, digital world.

In this episode, I talk about Hayao Miyazaki's 1988 film, "My Neighbor Totoro." It's about two young girls who discover magical forest spirits after moving to a rural home with their father to be closer to their hospitalized mother. I recorded this episode in the wake of my own mother's death, and I speak about how grief has shaped my experience of the film. I talk about watching the entire Studio Ghibli catalog and reflect on childhood, absence, and how nature and cinema offer solace when nothing else can.All My Sources:Hayao Miyazaki, The Auteur of Anime9 Facts About My Neighbor TotoroDefining the World of My Neighbor TotoroEverything You Need to Know About Japan's Iconic Studio GhibliStudio Ghibli: The Japanese Animation Powerhouse That Conquered The WorldHayao Miyazaki: The Life and Lasting Influence of the Studio Ghibli Auteur-AnimatorWhat is Hildegard's Viriditas?You can follow me on Instagram, Letterboxd, and Tumblr.

This week Scott and Patrick analyze the 1963 novel "The Sailor Who Fell from Grace with the Sea" by Yukio Mishima. They explore the symbolism, and deeper themes of a lost generation of Japanese youth tainted by the perverse influence of the West. We contrast the novel with the 2011 Studio Ghibli film "From Up on Poppy Hill", seemingly a inverse representation of the same place and era.check out Patrick's stuff at www.cantgetfooledagain.comDon't forget to join our Telegram channel at T.me/historyhomos and to join our group chat at T.me/historyhomoschatFor programming updates and news follow us across social media @historyhomospod and follow Scott @Scottlizardabrams and Patrick @cantgetfooledagainradio OR subscribe to our telegram channel t.me/historyhomosThe video version of the show is available on Substack, Rokfin, bitchute, odysee and RumbleFor weekly premium episodes or to contribute to the show subscribe to our channel at www.historyhomospod.substack.comYou can donate to the show directly at paypal.me/historyhomosTo order a History Homos T shirt (and recieve a free sticker) please send your shirt size and address to Historyhomos@gmail.com and please address all questions, comments and concerns there as well.Later homo
