    Christmas Is About Santa! | The Almost History Podcast | Ep. 16

    Welcome to Almost History. A podcast by 2 struggling comedians in LA, Logan Quiroz & Ben Gordon, where we discuss history, conspiracies and everything in between. Okay we finally figured out what Christmas is all about, and it really is just the presents. This whole time we thought Santa was a fat white guy in the North Pole who enslaved a different race of sub-human. In reality he was a guy from Turkey who had a heart of gold and wanted to spread some f*****g joy to little girls and boys.  #AHPodcast #History #Santa Follow our instagrams: @almosthistorypodcast: https://www.instagram.com/almosthistorypodcast/ @loganjquiroz: https://www.instagram.com/loganjquiroz/ @relaxandlaugh : https://www.instagram.com/relaxandlaugh/ Christmas Is About Santa! | The Almost History Podcast | Ep. 16

    John Brown Was Super Woke | The Almost History Podcast | Ep. 15

    Welcome to Almost History. A podcast by 2 struggling comedians in LA, Logan Quiroz & Ben Gordon, where we discuss history, conspiracies and everything in between. No lie, John Brown may be the most woke person of all time, he literally tried to single-handedly end slavery. Born in 1800 in Connecticut (the best state), John was taught from a young age that slavery was a sin against man, and he made it his mission to eradicate it by force. This guy went around trying to recruit people to join his cause and eventually decided to steal guns from the U.S. Government...Like we said, this guy might be the most woke person ever, either way he was a wild boy!  Thanks to our hilarious guest Jeff Zenisek.

    Felipe Espinoza & His Quest For 600 Kills | The Almost History Podcast | Ep. 14

    Welcome to Almost History. A podcast by 2 struggling comedians in LA, Logan Quiroz & Ben Gordon, where we discuss history, conspiracies and everything in between. Felipe Espinoza may be the reason they called it The Wild West, this guy was a true menace to society. While the rest of the country was going through the Civil War, Felipe and his brother spent their time trying to rack up 600 kills in the Colorado mountains. Once his brother wasn’t an option, Felipe recruited his nephew to carry on the f****d up family tradition. Some say it was revenge for the Mexican-American war, others say it was because he had a vision from The Lord...either way we can all agree this dude and his family were loco.  Skip to 18:32 to jump straight to the topic #AHPodcast #History #FelipeEspinoza Follow our instagrams: @almosthistorypodcast: https://www.instagram.com/almosthistorypodcast/ @loganjquiroz: https://www.instagram.com/loganjquiroz/ @relaxandlaugh : https://www.instagram.com/relaxandlaugh/ The Butcher Of Uganda | The Almost History Podcast | Ep. 12

    Griselda Blanco: The Queen Of The Trap | The Almost History Podcast | Ep. 13

    Welcome to Almost History. A podcast by 2 struggling comedians in LA, Logan Quiroz & Ben Gordon, where we discuss history, conspiracies and everything in between. Griselda Blanco was a crazy bitch. That’s the only way we can start this off. Born into extreme poverty and violence during Colombia’s La Violencia Civil War, Griselda crawled her way up to become the most successful female drug dealer of all time, also one of the bloodiest. When she was 11 she killed a neighbor boy after she couldn’t ransom him off. She’s credited with inviting the Sicario drive-by and it’s rumored she taught Pablo Escobar how to trap. Like we said, this bitch is crazy!

    The Butcher Of Uganda | The Almost History Podcast | Ep. 12

    Welcome to Almost History. A podcast by 2 struggling comedians in LA, Logan Quiroz & Ben Gordon, where we discuss history, conspiracies and everything in between. Out of everyone we've discussed so far Idi Amin might have the coolest nickname, The Butcher of Uganda, and he earned every bit of it. We literally just spent the episode talking about him and it's still not clear how he was able to rise from his humble beginnings to being the ruler of Uganda. Known for his physical attributes and lack of thought, Idi was a crazy combination we may never see again. Also he used to eat people, he's a cannibal savage...but also kind of a good dad so not all bad. This is a wild one!

    A Call From Heaven To Whoop Some Ass | The Almost History Podcast | Ep. 11

    Welcome to Almost History. A podcast by 2 struggling comedians in LA, Logan Quiroz & Ben Gordon, where we discuss history, conspiracies and everything in between. They say revenge is a dish best served cold. According to Nat Turner it was best served as a rebellion to end slavery. This man was f*****g insane, in a good way. Born into slavery, Nat Turner started having hallucinations as a kid, which he took as signs from Heaven that he was a prophet and used it to kickstart one of the craziest rebellions in American history. When people talk about freedom fighters, Nat Turner should be at the top of the list. A true badass.

    Vlad The Impaler: AKA The Birth of Dracula | The Almost History Podcast | Ep. 10

    Welcome to Almost History. A podcast by 2 struggling comedians in LA, Logan Quiroz & Ben Gordon, where we discuss history, conspiracies and everything in between. This episode is extra spooky for Halloween! They say when you aim for the head you better not miss, well today’s topic liked to aim for the ass. If you’ve never heard of Vlad The Impaler then prepare yourself for a warrior with a serious ass fetish. Vlad spent 20+ years fighting throughout Romania and Hungary, impaling thousands along the way. By the time he was done over 20,000 fell to his tactics. He was also literally the inspiration behind Dracula. This may be our wildest one so far!

    Welcome to Almost History. A podcast by 2 struggling comedians in LA, Logan Quiroz & Ben Gordon, where we discuss history, conspiracies and everything in between. This episode is about America’s first black Heavyweight Champion Jack Johnson. Jack was known as the Gavelston Giant and he lived up to the name.
