Tag team name could be, "The Kabal!"

Rebecca Loduha

Something something Juedo Bolshevism

Man I’m related to and know a lot of people who have ADHD, and they aren’t conversation hogs like Nate. Obviously I enjoy these conversations I just want Nate to decrease his desire to want to control the conversation.

loren moffitt

i'd like to second the motion to appreciate the nate knowledge dumps the tangents have always been one of the best parts of the show

Robert Heilman

lmao at the tbi gi's

Robert Heilman

I love the Nate knowledge dumps. Also I'm sure I read somewhere in some academic text they did go in on blackface but it was years ago.

dase

Tag team name: The TBI GI’s or The NWO But pay up the conspiracy theory stereotypes.

oneyedjohn

Man, didn't expect stealing valor from Amy McGrath /s

Jeremy Davis

All good! For a second when I heard that I was beginning to wonder "Wait, Begin was assassinated by right-wing extremist? Who was more right wing than him?" :P

S.O. Khan

yeah lol whoops

Lions Led By Donkeys Podcast

Don't ADHD shame, this podcast is equal parts fun tangents and infodumping anyway

POWERDAD

Love the episode. Question : did you mean Rabin instead of Begin at the beginning (re: Israeli PM assassinated by right wing extremist)?

S.O. Khan

Joe: The Armeniac. Finishing move: Caucus Crusher. Nate: Producer Pain. Finishing move: The Podsmash. Tag Team Name: The Euro-Yanks, or Yanks in Europe.

I was in 3rd grade my father was on a business convention on the other side of the US and due to get back the evening of the 11th. His flight was like noon est. He and several of his coworkers rented a car and drove nonstop.

Benjamin Henderson

Completely agree, get the impression he thinks he's the host sometimes!

Daniel Mathews

I was actually on vacation during 9/11, I was in fourth grade, I'm pretty sure. I distinctly remember how difficult it was to get on a flight after the trip.

If Joe’s wrestling gimmick involves being Soviet and Nate’s involves being Jewish, I think the tag team name has to be a Trotsky joke, but I can’t think of it yet.

Max

It’s Joe’s episode, I like to a certain extent but I feel that he goes out of his way on tangents to qualify everything.

loren moffitt

Let him cook

Nicholas Kidd

Nate you talk too much, we know your smart just chill.

loren moffitt

This and the hijacking of TWA Flight 847 became the basis for Canon's Delta Force. Which made it hard to listen to the episode only as the theme from Delta Force kept playing in my head.

Jack McReynolds

joes wrestling name: the Mad Albanian nate wrestling name: Captain of the British Transgenders tag team name: Unwelcome in England finishing move: nate pulls alice caldwell-kelly out of the crowd and uses her like a folding chair

The only other airport in England doing that same process as London City is Teesside International lol

Pat McAleenan

Oh come on. An episode about Israel and no Liam? Alright I guess I’ll still let me ear holes enjoy it.

I_like_planes_and_cities

Would love to hear more small scale episodes like this, some truly crazy operations out there. The drag disguise one might be a good start 😂 Now I'm just imaging more historical ones like a bunch of knights dressed as nuns to infiltrate a castle and I'm all for it.

Joe sounds extra dead this time!
