  • Summary

  • Comedians Felipe Esparza and Butch Escobar are NOT history experts. Actually, they barely passed history in high school... But they like talking about and diving into different subjects... and they're willing to learn - and share what they've learned. Some topics are just 1 episode, others take up several episodes. If you didn't learn this stuff in skoo, don't be a foo and check out this podcast!
