Strider Wilson hosts a podcast delving into history through the perspective of a mature erudite bro. He was one unit away from a history minor at U.C. San Diego, but he does’t let that stop him from examining what it would have been like to be a bro posted up on Bunker Hill or uncovering what the chillest aspect of surrealist art is. Buckle up because Strider will not only venture into humanity's shared past. He will venture within himself. Asking real questions such as, “exactly how tight are pirates,” or “what if he stayed that extra semester in school,” “would my life have been danker?” Strider firmly believes that history is tight because we all should for sure blaze our own trails… but in what direction?

History Is Dank

Assassins With Harmony McElligott

The Ancient Spartan way of life is often glorified in film and television, but should we be horrified? Modern, "Alpha Male Influencers," harken to the brutal training and military prowess of the Spartan soldier as a form of motivation to become elite in contemporary society. This idea along with how sick the movie 300 was, inspired Strider to look into whether or not it would be tight to have lived in Sparta 2500 years ago.

Was Sparta Actually Unchill?

Imagine going to back 40,000 years ago to the moment when an ancient human decided to express his or herself creatively. In France, within the Lascaux Caves  exists non only one of the most perfectly preserved, but also one of oldest example of ancient cave art. Though the images appear as simple animals, plants and human figures is there deep meaning behind these works?
