I have to say you got it wrong when it was said Captain Cook is best known for the way he was killed. The thing Captain Cook is known for is that he discovered the east coast of Australia and claimed it for the Bristish empire. Without this, Australia would not be the country it is today.

I'd rather close my man bits in the door of my truck than listen to a podcast with a kid on it much less a kid-centric podcast. When you guys did the kids trivia episode I nearly injured myself trying to get it shut off as fast as humanly possible. Love nearly everything else.

I've been a devoted listener of The MeatEater Podcast for a while now, and I can't get enough of it! The way they blend hunting, conservation, and the love for the outdoors is truly captivating. https://www.getyourpros.com/usa/los-angeles/healthcare/sticker-printing-pros/90044/california One thing that sets this podcast apart is the authenticity of the hosts. They don't just talk the talk; they walk the walk. Their deep knowledge of hunting, fishing, and wildlife conservation shines through in every episode. It's not just about trophies; it's about respecting the animals and the environment. http://www.localhomeservicepros.com/los-angeles-ca-usa/painting/sticker-printing-pros

This guest is full of great information, but jesus fuck is he a bad conversationalist. Listening to steve try and coax a response out of this guy, or a hypothetical is absolutely painful.
