    Ep. 21 Generation Zoomer, Boomer, and...Doomer?

    Ep. 21 Generation Zoomer, Boomer, and...Doomer?

    AYO!!! New episode out after a pretty decent break (apologies). This one does not disappoint though. Cente and I talk about 'Pokemon Go's' crazy public display, the influence of social media and technology including the uprising/resurgence of hardcore fandom, the weird situations surrounding the 2021 Toyko Olympics, the downfall of American Democracy and more! As always, historically insignificant is about having seemingly meaningful conversations in a seemingly unimpressive, unrememberable way to highlight the ironically upsetting situation we find ourselves all in. Join us in this weird, fun adventure and stay tuned for more episodes!

    Ep. 20 At Least I Know I'm Free

    Ep. 20 At Least I Know I'm Free

    What's up Listeners!! This episode we do a few listener topic suggestions, rain water laws in CO and gun control arguments after the most recent mass shootings. Then our argument just starts twisting and turning around the republican party, current politics and policy, weird new stories that popped up over the week, etc. (Let's just say its one of those super historically insignificant episodes). Jason said it best near the end, we were back-shuffling up a hill the whole time and it was a great time as always. Thanks for listening, share with others if you enjoy it, and stay historificant friends.

    Ep. 19 Ill match your gaslighting and raise you a colorful insult..

    WOW. This episode has it all, some historically insignificant back and forth about the state of the republican party, a fun conversation about the fairness of personality tests when it comes to getting a job, a quick update on a crazy murder case in Colorado, a stupid dialogue about jury's making decisions like it's groundhog's day in the court house and using public death sentences, and a little bit of Naruto Shippuden nerd talk to round it out. This was a super fun episode to record, thank you for listening, check our past and future episodes and stay gas lit historificants (What am I even saying anymore?)

    Ep. 18 Policy TLDR

    Ep. 18 Policy TLDR

    Another Solo Episode brought to by satellite launched vaccines (shout-out to last episode). For this episode I went over the COVID 19 relief bill that passed the house, the calls for Cuomo's resignation, the new Internet subsidy approved by the FCC, a pricey lawsuit in Illinois over fakebook's 'tag suggestion' feature, the FBI confirming Antifa was not apart of the insurrection on the capital, and more. Give it a listen if you want to 'stay informed' and feel free to send voice messages or emails if you want to hear some TLDR break-downs of other topics!

    Ep. 17 Historically Insignificant

    Thank you for tuning in to another episode of historical insignificant! With my newly acquired desire to put out episodes consistently, sometimes we just turn the mics on and go and here is one of those episodes. We talk about some politics and new stories from the past week, joke about vaccines being shot from satellites, and a bunch of other stuff. Needless to say, it was super fun, stayed tuned for more, and thanks for supporting us! Posting episodes like this demonstrate, if nothing else, we are here to have a good time and share some laughs while talking about a huge range of topics.
