    Ep. 519 Anders Behring Breivik

    Ep. 519 Anders Behring Breivik

    There's more to the subject of today's podcast than just the terrifying lack of life in his eyes and his hard to say name, Anders Behring Breivik is also a huge piece of shit. We combed through his childhood to find out what makes a man become so s****y and well, we found a ton of different reasons. Most having to do with his garbage monster of a mom. The only upside to this guy is he's a reminder to the Norwegians that they fuck up and let an occasional shithead through the net too Enjoy!

    Ep. 518 Scott "Hollywood" Scurlock

    Ep. 518 Scott "Hollywood" Scurlock

    Our subject for today is the type of person who at surface level, I definitely didn't expect to see come up on this podcast. But it turns out that Scott "Hollywood" Scurlock, this burnout surf bum who walks around his treehouse naked, also lived one hell of a criminal life. Through a lot of sheer dumb luck, and occasional competence, plenty of bonkersness is to be found in this guy's story. Enjoy!

    Ep. 517 Ludwig "Tarzan" Fainberg

    Ep. 517 Ludwig "Tarzan" Fainberg

    Today it's time to talk about a crazy ass Ukrainian Jew who has lived one hell of a life. Ludwig "Tarzan" Fainberg at first seemed to just follow all of the tropes and stereotypes for being Ukrainian, then one day his story he winds up in Miami and that's where his story went super off the rails. Drugs, beatings, and sales you wouldn't believe, we got it all in this one. Enjoy!

    Ep. 516 Sir William Sidney Smith

    Ep. 516 Sir William Sidney Smith

    It's time to take to the seas again! This time to talk about Sidney Smith, who got started young and really took a shine to being on the water. And for pissing off a very specific Frenchman. This dude won a ton of accolades across several wars and off the coast of a ton of different countries. Enjoy!

    Ep. 515 Israel Keyes

    Ep. 515 Israel Keyes

    Today we'll be covering another long requested scumbag, Israel Keyes. This s******d serial killer thought he was special, and sure, he did some things smarter or more creatively than the average "I need to stab to get my rocks off" types. But at the end of the day his need to be a shithead murdering psychopath won out over all his meticulous planning, rules, and "don't shit where you eat" philosophy. Also, worst ad for the Ford Focus ever. Anyway, enjoy!

    Ep. 514 Charles Guiteau

    Ep. 514 Charles Guiteau

    Well, dear listeners, where do I even start with this one? I guess first off, unless you already know who this is, I assure you that you will not see what is coming next at any point in this story. Because Charles Guiteau was a goddamn crazy person of the highest order. The leaps and mental gymnastics this dude makes throughout his life would make Charles Manson blink in confusion. It's a hell of a rollercoaster, but it's a damn fun one. So enjoy!

Feel Good Stories

The amount and quality of content Tim and Jacob produce is just mind blowing. Thank you! I’ve listened to every episode and they are always entertaining. I would call these feel good stories. The reason is that Tim and Jacob continuously set a new low for humanity. That is true simply because they are terrible people. Terribly funny.

If you have time do an episode on Laskarina Bouboulina. I promise you, this Greek hero will not disappoint. I fully trust if you choose her you two will be fully respectful of the Greek history and people, because us Greeks having absolutely nothing that can be made fun of.
