The tangents are almost my favourite part. Nate is right. We knew what we where getting into. Let your weird light, shine bright, So us other weirdos know where to find you. 😎
I do event planning and a church groups still work on "god wills it" planning. It makes my job very difficult.
My one edict as a king is bring back the dinosaurs lol
There needs to be a lions version of dad chat but it's just inappropriate jokes, depression and memes
The Crusaders are just a 12th century Grail from Preacher and have Ye Olde Cloninge Vatte pumping out new Jesuses to be murdered for their femurs.
Dry Dunkirk? It's Dry Dieppe.
Loved the enthusiasm for Arab chroniclers of the time and their poetic description of battle chaos
Rest of the ep is great, but I love a bit of a moan about British rail prices
Crusades episodes are always a great and very normal time, and I can not WAIT for whatever dumb shit is about to enter my ear-holes
The Director's Cut of Kingdom of Heaven actually turns it into a good movie
Def. more depth than the theatrical cut
In the north of Mexico instead of pieces of the true cross it's "come see where Pancho Villa was buried." They dug one of those spots up a while ago to do DNA analysis. Turns out the bones buried there were from... A cow
Best part was that short men carry good pipe. Fucking brill! Yer, UK trains are pump but if you get your veterans rail card, it’s a 1/3 off discount…. Peasants. Those British accents are horrific.
Fuck the battle of Cannae all my homies want to replicate Saladin's victory over the cavalry charge
I'm pretty sure that according to Catholic doctrine, there was only one piece of Jesus that didn't ascend to heaven, meaning only that one piece could be a relic. So there were a bunch of (supposedly) holy prepuces floating around Europe for a while.
Did Liam find Nick?
Liam's plane was shot down pver the sea of Japan. It spun in. There were no survivors
Screw Joaquin playing Napoleon, I wanna see who is playing Murat, the closest mankind has ever gotten to a slaanesh cultist.
The entire Lusignan family were idiots, the later generations contributed to the Second Baron's War in England. And Kingdom of Heaven is a bullshit movie.
I'm loving the Joe, Nate, and Tom combo. Great work guys!
LETS GO!!!
This will be perfect with my run in the morning
Stop, I can only get so erect
