In this episode Johnny and the Truth discuss the inner workings of the assassination of Julius Caesar--the planning, the execution, and the other plans that were rejected. They also talk about being catapulted into the air on a bicycle with wings, and also how much money it would take for us to try the first electric razor from 1931 and what a good costume to wear to a costume party if you were going to murder someone. #Caesar #IdesofMarch #firstelectricrazor #bikeonwings

This week JGT and the Truth ask pressing questions like "if you were 2 hours late to your wedding because you were looking at maps (like Napoleon), how would your wife feel about it?" Also, how much would you have to be paid to be the guy who went around apologizing to people on behalf of the authorities in the 16th century after their husbands were wrongly tortured to death? In addition, March 8th was Be Nasty Day (which you obviously already knew). How much would your chances of scoring with your wife improve if you told her it was Be Nasty Day?

This is our first attempt at publishing video, so excuse us if it needs work. In this episode we tackle hard hitting topics like starting a cult, sleeping in church, comparing Joseph Stalin to NBA players, wiring your brain to a rat's, and how much money it would take for us to leave our wives.

This week Johnny and Nat talk about starting a cult and what a good foundation of a start-up cult would be. They also talk about sleeping in church, how long they'd last in 17th century America before they'd end up in the stocks in the public square. They mull over how much money it would take to walk away from their wives and leave with only things they could fit in a brief case. And the guys also discuss the pros and cons of getting your brain wired to a rat's. #adonism #cults #orgies #wickedbible #adonis #rats

Johnny and Nat dive into the story of Aldrich Ames, former standout CIA and KGB agent and lover of long, boozy lunches. They also discuss how many times trying to hang someone is too many times and how much money their wives would think was an acceptable amount to spend on a pig. And lastly, it is important that you know that we are NOT CIA assets who want to know everything you know about the former Soviet Union. We can't stress that enough. We're just regular guys who have a little podcast. If you think we operate in the dark underbelly and shadows of society and government, you're just wrong.

JGT and the Truth dive into topics ranging from total vindication, stealing helicopters to really stick it to your girlfriend, chimpanzee attacks (and whether Johnny could beat a chimp in a fight), and much, much more.

Covering things that happened from January 31-February 6, JGT and the Truth discuss the ins and outs of declaring yourself emperor and what kind of power moves they might make to strengthen their positions as ruler. They also talk about how they might handle being stranded on an island for 4 years and the downsides that might come along with that. They also discuss creating vacuums and working naked.

The guys discuss the life and times of Caligula this week.

Johnny and the Truth are back with a semi-deep dive into Gregori Rasputin, the Russian religious zealot who managed to get extremely close to the gears of power using nothing but prayer, charisma, and possibly a foot long penis.   The guys also examine Johnny's past as a juvenile petty criminal, the type of energy in the air before a Quizzo competition devolves into a huge orgy, and why Nat won't accept invitations to hang out with people at midnight. All this and more on the Worthless Knowledge podcast--recently rebranded in the hopes that we would lose 90% of our audience!

Johnny and the Truth take a walk with you through history to the 1932 Olympics where they explain how simple it was to compete in international bobsled if you were a toothpaste heir.   They also speculate how a vacation would go if it were free but you had to fight the amateur boxing champion of each country you went to.

In this episode the guys welcome comic Blake Wexler to help them break down exciting medical treatments from the past that we don't use anymore because of the liberals.

On this episode JGT and Nat explore the unlikely rise to power and reign of Emperor Claudius.  They discuss the time he fought a killer whale in the harbor and some other questionable tactics he employed during his time at the top of the pile.  There is also lively banter concerning 1st century prosthetics and medical care in general, as well as how much more frequent poisonings were back then.   All this and much. much more in this episode--subscribe and give us a rating (a good one preferably).

The guys are joined by co-host of the Philly Blunt podcast, Reef the Lost Cauze to discuss the fantastic 1930's anti-marijuana propaganda film "Reefer Madness".  In the course of the discussion, they touch on points ranging from the obvious (and less than obvious) perils of deadly marijuana, how much more likely they'd be to go to a movie if there was a mummified corpse in the lobby, poking sticks, and some of Nat's experiences when he was in the inaugural class of the DARE program. You really don't want to miss this one.  (Imagine I just broke the 4th wall and pointed directly at you when I said that)
