    Love these guys
    These guys paint an amazing mental picture. Not every episode is a subject I find particularly riveting, however these guys are an absolute pleasure to hear speak on historical subjects. The subtle humor often has me rolling on the floor. “I’m sorry, did you say he short himself in the head and then led the police on a high speed boat chase?”😂😂 Bing Dover, Florida US
