Both are competitive. Both universal. But it's episode 300!

The first episode, Nazis and Fanta, was published on the 27th of April, 2018.

Six years ago to the month!

Thanks so much for listening as long as you have. It's been amazing to see the show grow and take on a life of it's own among everyone who downloads it.

Thanks to Santo Cilauro, our special guest for this milestone episode.
