History Defeats Itself

History Defeats Itself

di Kevin Rosenquist

A 1982 Sky Blue Fiat Strada

We all drive right? Well, maybe not all of us. Babies don't drive, or at least, really shouldn't. Some people commute by train. Or bus. Or dune buggy. But most of us drive a car, truck, or SUV fairly regularly. On the latest episode of HDI John enlightens us on the complicated history of the automobile industry and its pioneers. Can a person be amazingly innovative and horribly bigoted? The only way to know for sure is to listen. Or research it yourself. But listening to us is easier. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's Got Hot Cakes!

Fast food is satisfying. It's delicious. It's cheap. It's easy. And it's one of the worst things we can put in our bodies. But we all do it...a lot.

Your Butt's Natural

First and foremost (if you can see the image for this episode) that is a fucked up ad. Also, smoking is definitely not good for you. 2/3 of the HDI podcast team are former smokers. The other 1/3 is super judgey about it and seems to enjoy telling the other 2/3 how much irreparable damage they've done to their bodies. But don't let that stop you from checking out the latest episode of History Defeats Itself. Sit back, relax, listen, and smoke 'em if you got 'em! Learn more about your ad choices.

Your Septic Tank is Full of Ghosts

Ghosts are everywhere. They're in your bedroom, in your car, in your plumbing, in your 2 stroke weed eater engine, in your hair, in your parent's sex dungeon, in your Skinny Cinnamon Dulce Latte, in your leftover Chinese food, in your sock drawer, in your podcast microphone, and in your elderly, racist cat. The good news is that if you're in need of an expert to come and help deal with your ghost problem, there are a lot of them out there. Like a lotta lot. Like a crazy amount of people call themselves ghost hunters. Are they legit or are they just running around like a bunch of meddling kids? Listen...and be enlightened.

The Electrical College

It's probably safe to say that the majority of us take living in a democracy for granted. But most of us vote and the ones who don't still probably know they should. On this episode we're talking about voting. Have we learned how important our vote is? Are we aware of how difficult it is for some people to cast their ballot? Can John pronounce electoral? The only way to know for sure is to listen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I'll Show You Where the Crayfish Hibernate!

God it feels good to swear. You wanna know how good? How did you answer that question? Probably like this: "You're __________ right it feels _________ good to swear you mother ________ son of a _____________ stick!" We all have our own fill ins for that sentence. This week the crew is talking about profanity. Questions will be answered. People driving next to you in traffic while you're listening to this will think you're a monster. And have you wondered how to really insult someone in Russia? Take a listen. We have some suggestions. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

7 Degree Shadow

Look, flat earthers are no different than you and I. Except that they believe that the earth is a disc, the moon landing was faked, no one's ever been in space, NASA doesn't really exist, Antarctica is a giant ice wall, the Earth and the sun are the same size, gravity doesn't exist, scientists are frauds, all space photography is faked, and that Elvis is alive and runs the NSA. Other than that they are just like the rest of us. Open your eyes and jump on the truth train. Choo choo! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Sashay Across the Border

No matter what your opinion is regarding the crisis at the border one thing we should all remember is that the United States of America was built by immigrants. It was a fundamental part of our growth. John leads the charge this week as we tackle one of the more hot button issues in our country today.  Learn more about your ad choices.
