Night Wolves and Metal Noses

Presidential drinking habits, Kentucky mayhem, and Montenegro.

John, Ed, and Tim have pulled together another grab bag of historical curiosities, with a pinch of current events tossed in for good measure.

Episode highlights include:

  • The drinking (and non-drinking) habits of 20th Century American presidents.
  • Gubernatorial assassination and general mayhem in Kentucky.
  • Shadowy pro-Russian forces in Montenegro, and the attempted coup d'etat that nobody seemed to notice.

Plus, our first nomination for a "Dexty" award, in honor of this podcast's patron saint, Lord Timothy Dexter.

Is there any kind of unifying theme for these topics? Hmm...maybe.
