Episode 3.17 7/7/17 - Second Best Birthday Ever - That Brilliant Bastard
Otto was born in Davenport, IA on July seventh, eighteen hundred and eighty, one hundred thirty seven years ago today. Fifth child for his parents, it was still a momentous occasion, but probably not quite as momentous as the first four. He grew up a quiet simple life, apprenticed himself to a...

Episode 3.13 6/9/17 - The Miracle of Comedy - That Overproofed Bastard
Lil’ Ricky grew up in his Grandmother’s brothel. Gram was too old to be turnin tricks (at least to the general populace, most madams kept a few gentlemen clients that have aged up with them), but Ricky’s mom was at the top of her game, and went to work outside the family’s business, but not out…

Episode 3.1 3/17/17 - Runnin Lamas - Those Commie Bastards
Little Lhamo was a rambunctious child. Fearless, the wise gurus of his province described. The ruler of his people had recently moved onto a higher plane, and the remaining leaders were searching for a decent replacement. And when the corpse of the great leader moved his head to face to the...

The Babylonians were astronomical bastards. Thousands of years before the beginning of the common era, without the benefit of glass or radio, they discovered and plotted the the orbits of Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Of course the planets weren’t called by those names at that time,...

Episode 2.49 2/24/17 - Cubans Are Revolting - Those Imperial Bastards
They’d gone through it a couple times before. The people of Cuba had risen up against their Imperial Spanish overlords previously in the Ten Years War and the Little War (way to give a war a complex) and both times the rebellions were quelled. This was back in the 1870’s, and we were a little...

Episode 2.48 2/17/17 - Crisis Averted - Those Federalist Bastards
We’d only had the damn constitution for twelve years before we broke it. The election of 1800 was rough. Adams was an unpopular president, known mostly for the sedition acts, and seen by some as a poor successor to Washington. Jefferson had strong support in the south and thought he was able to...

Episode 2.47 2/10/17 - A Very Quiet Riot - Those Scholastic Bastards
Don’t ask me how St. Scholastica, the patron of nuns, got to associated with higher learning, but the students of Oxford long found the day of her feast to be one of revelry. College revelry has a long standing history of irritating the locals, and back in 1355 it was no different. Two students...

Episode 2.46 2/3/17 - Worst Standby Ever - That Boppin Bastard
Jiles always was a big fucker. Tall, sturdy built, he played a defensive lineman in high school. Ol number 85. It was a fair balance for his choir and band enthusiasms which were his true passion. He got himself into college, but when the night time DJ gig started bringing in real scratch, the...

Episode 2.45 1/27/17 - Paved With Good Intentions - Those Florentine Bastards
After Rome, but before Italy, the Mediterranean boot was a bunch of little principalities, city-states, loosely united under the Holy Roman Empire and the Church. It was a loose union as the church and the Empire were often not united to each other very well. In the twelve and thirteen hundreds…

Episode 2.44 1/13/17 - Wanna See A Convention? - Those Nazi Bastards
On this historic day, we were reminded of a concert in Des Moines on January 20 1982, thirty five years ago today. Ozzy was in full character, and high as a damn kite most like, and some fan tossed what looked to Ozzy to be a toy bat on stage. Ozzy had already had an incident with biting the…

Episode 2.44 1/13/17 - Behind Bars Band - That In Black Bastard
They called him the Undertaker. Would have been a fine nom de plume if he were a professional wrestler, or a hit man maybe, but John didn’t have quite so violent a career path. He always wore black clothes, as he thought the were easier to keep clean while travelling. Not necessarily the soundest...

Episode 2.43 1/6/17 - Knowledge is Power - That Rockin Bastard
Dave’s kids knew the lyrics to every Rolling Stones’ song. Even in ‘71 that was a heck of a catalog, Exile on Main Street hadn’t come out yet,, but that was still a lot of songs and he should have been impressed. But Dave was old fashioned and thought his kids should have other things in their...
