What the hell is groundhog day? Good question. Here's a quick primer on some of the most famous rodent prognosticators in North America (plus one that may have been murdered by a famous New Yorker).

Part two, our finale of Boudicca (Boudica? Bodicea? Depends on who you ask), sees her campaign of bloody revenge in the south of England as well as our very own collectible trading cards that sound an awful lot like a scam, because they more than likely are. Before we look at the final, climactic battle between the fury of the Iceni horde and the might of the Roman war machine, we show the different styles of warfare- from the armored legions of rome the exposed, and potentially blue, genitals of the Britons. And Rob drops what is arguably the least recognized thing he assumes everyone knows about in the history of anything ever. We also ask the one truly important question: Was Boudicca actually real? email us at trrpod@gmail.com Follow us on twitter! @podcastTRR Follow us on instagram! @trrpod Find us on facebook!

In the first episode of our two part look at Boudicca, the warrior queen of the Britons, we take a look at just how Rome came about colonizing the English islands. Ultimately, Rome does some Rome stuff, and death leads to atrocity which leads to Boudicca raising tens of thousands of countrymen to her cause. Have you ever wanted some payback after a bad day? Well, the difference is that your day wasn't anywhere near as bad as hers and she actually did something about it. email us at trrpod@gmail.com Follow us on twitter! @podcastTRR Follow us on instagram! @trrpod Find us on facebook!

We track the ascension of Ching Shih (sometimes called Zheng Yi Sao) from her humble beginnings as a prostitute to the wife of one of the most successful pirates in Asia. After her husband's death- she took up the mantle and went on to lead a force of 80,000 pirates and 1,800 vessels. She would go on to break navies and defy empires before he reign ended- and maybe not the way you think it did. email us at trrpod@gmail.com Follow us on twitter! @podcastTRR Follow us on instagram! @trrpod Find us on facebook!

In 1976, 26 children and their bus driver were kidnapped on the way home from an end of summer pool party. 3 armed men loaded them into unmarked vans before burying them in the California desert- and ultimately Robert Goulet ends up in this story. Our first true crime podcast, we look into what happened in Chowchilla that day, the children on board, their heroic bus driver, lead water, Christmas tree farms, and two bonus conspiracy theories starring Dirty Harry and Elvis respectively. email us at trrpod@gmail.com Follow us on twitter! @podcastTRR Follow us on instagram! @trrpod Find us on facebook!

Happy halloween, y'all! This time we're looking into some unexplained mysteries in the tri-state area, and we're unfortunately in the market for a new co-host since Kyle decided to act irresponsibly. Just remember that you don't have to, nor should you EVER, tolerate someone becoming physical in the workplace. Completely unacceptable. But anyway... *glass shatters* OH GOD OH MY GOD *Gunshots* OH GOD NO *Gunshots* *Growling* *Squelching*

During the height of prohibition, many enterprising people found different ways to make money- some opened secret bars, some committed life insurance fraud. Mike Malloy, a homeless immigrant and alcoholic was the target of one of these schemes (well, both, technically) but there was a wrinkle in the plan: Mike simply wouldn't die. email us at trrpod@gmail.com Follow us on twitter! @podcastTRR Follow us on instagram! @trrpod Find us on facebook!

THE FINALE! After we play musical chairs with hosts, experience a month's worth of technical difficulties, we finally wrapped our largest, longest, girthiest series yet- all wrapped up in one nice jar. We cover assassination attempts, actual assassinations, starvation, revolution, baked goods, malicious baked goods, Henry Kissinger, and Hellboy. This series wraps in one of our most exciting episodes yet, and we cannot thank you guys enough for enjoying it with us. We are close to TEN THOUSAND pages worth of total research in this series and we hope we were able to sift through most of it to find you the tastiest morsels.

Our fifth installment in our 6 part series is a busy one. Unfortunately we're Keith-less since he was exposed to covid at work (don't worry, he was fine), but we carried on as best we could. From Padre's questions re: Italian heritage, an INCREDIBLY thirst dog, and some discussions on gout- we really get into what fame and fortune does to our man Greg. From an unfortunate dining experience that ended up with a police report that included the words "sexually psychopathic", to global conflict, and ultimately to a woman without a nose, this is one hell of an episode.

In the 4th of our series, we see Grigory begin his ascent to rarified atmosphere of Russia's loftiest political circles. Almost immediately upon meeting them, he became a trusted and loyal companion to the Tsar and Tsarina, eventually providing what can only be described as magical childcare. That does not coincide with his Marvin Gaye-esque brand of sexual healing. He was a weird dude, but he wasn't that gross. Chris displays his encyclopedic knowledge of ED medications, there is a great "footprints in the sand" joke, and there is a decent chance everyone gets poison ivy.

Our third installment of our series on Rasputin introduces the Romanovs- the unbroken line of Russian rulers who governed for over 300 years. We consider an intervention for Padre, the dog drops the heaviest toy in the history of dog toys, and we set the stage for Rasputin's introduction into the highest echelons of Russian society. As an added bonus to this episode, Kyle was out of town so it's even better than usual.

In our second installment of our multi-part look at Rasputin, we follow Grigori as he goes from weird child to weird young man as he begins his long, shirtless trek across Russia. Along the way, he makes some exciting new friends that will ultimately try to murder him, but that's not for a few more episodes We try to debunk a few theories, postulate on some of our own, and Chris explains why he loves renting cars so much.

In the first episode of our most ambitious project yet, we introduce our guest host, Keith. Friend of the podcast, student of history, and appreciator of bad jokes, Keith is helping us uncover the strange story of our newest subject. We're examining the raven-haired master of the occult- Sony Pictures' own Dr. Michael Morbius (in theaters now). Our story begins as most weird things do: In Siberia. A peasant boy that claims he can see crime turns into a womanizing alcoholic and then back into a weird young man before combining all of these things in future installments.

RØb, Chrïs, Pådre, and Kylë are wrapping up our look into Norway's black metal scene. What started as a niche music scene (albeit with a healthy amout of satanic rituals and animal carcassses) very quickly turns violent. From the murder of a homosexual near the Lillehammer Olympic village to a rash of church burnings, the black metal scene becomes something more than just music.

In part one of two, we look at the rise of the Black Metal scene in Norway. Join RØb, Chrïs, Pådre, and Kylë as they cross the Atlantic in an attempt to finally understand counter-culture and no longer be considered posers by very pale people with incredibly long hair. In the infancy of rock's Scandinavian sub-genre, a small group of weird, skinny men decided to escalate things from a small group of weird, skinny men to a small group of weird skinny men that set churches on fire.

In this episode of Extra Rations, Rob talks about John Malcolm Thorpe Fleming Churchill, more commonly known as "Mad Jack". A Scottish officer in the British Army during WWII. Jack was as rough and tough as you would expect any highlander pressed into war would be, but he carried a few things into battle that were considered unorthodox at the time: A bow, a sword, and bagpipes. Yes, there is official documentation of him using all three. email us at trrpod@gmail.com Follow us on twitter! @podcastTRR Follow us on instagram! @trrpod Find us on facebook!

Join Rob, Chris, and Kyle in a previously unreleased episode from 2021. This week, we look at Elizabeth Báthory and her macabre sense of hygiene.

In this Extra Rations, Rob talks about the time that Australia issued a call to arms for its brave fighting men to defend the Queen's interests and her holdings against an enemy inside her own borders. The enemy? Migratory birds. email us at trrpod@gmail.com Follow us on twitter! @podcastTRR Follow us on instagram! @trrpod Find us on facebook! Join us in Valhalla! www.patreon.com/trrpod

In this week's Extra Rations, Chris takes a look at Groundhog Day- one weird holiday. This is a short look at a very, very bizarre holiday. Spoiler alert: the church stole it from Pagans.
