An irreverent, geeky, and occasionally gory History podcast where we discuss the past and the stuff that made it. Mixing material culture, microhistory, and storytelling, we find new angles from which to examine world history through strange and interesting objects. We are two history professors from different cultures and a generation apart in age. Join us as we laugh and learn together.
