158. Porfirio Díaz

Porfirio Díaz’s mustache could not be reached for comment.

We know it’s spooky season, but what’s spookier than the entrenched power of bourgeois capital bleh, vampire voice! Also, Brian can’t read a calendar. Anyway, we’re joined by special guest Byron Graham, talking about the life and regime of Porfirio Díaz, whose policies led to the outbreak of the Mexican Revolution. Zach delivers an unbelievable fact about Con Air, Byron discovers a severe form of revenge, and Brian channels and slanders Freddy Kreuger.

157. A Brief History of Mexico

General Vicente Guerrero, who had no idea he was fighting in the state of Guerrero.

We’re back from our Summer sabbatical and we’re kicking off with a new kind of episode! Before we launch our Mexican Revolution miniseries in a couple weeks, we’re getting caught up with thousands of years of Mexican history with special guest Jose Macall. Zach diagnoses Brian, Jose deals in southern real estate, and Brian has found a new bummer.

NOTE: we had to use the Zoom backup audio for this recording and, as a result, Jose’s audio is a bit distorted. Apologies for the diminished quality.

Episode 78: The Clipperton Island Disaster

Ahoy! The wonderful Timmi Lasley returns to help us discuss an island literally made of crap, Clipperton Island! Meanwhile, Zach self-diagnoses with scurvy, Timmi raids your fridge, and Brian pitches Ayn Rand’s hospitality book.
