The Bath School Disaster (Part 2)
To this day, the Bath School Disaster of 1927 remains the deadliest mass murder in a school in American history, yet it isn’t often discussed. In this episode, Norm covers May 18, 1927, when school board member Andrew Kehoe set off a series of explosions that killed 38 children, 6 adults, and injured at least 58 others. That act of domestic terrorism forever changed the small community of Bath, Michigan. Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Norm pulled from: Bath School Museum. “Bath School Museum.” https://bathschoolmuseum.org/. Bernstein, Arnie. Bath Massacre: America’s First Sch...

The Bath School Disaster (Part 1)
It was unspeakable. Unthinkable. In 1927, a school board member set off a series of explosions that killed 38 children, 6 adults, and injured at least 58 others. That act of domestic terrorism became known as the Bath School disaster. It rocked the small farming community of Bath Township, Michigan, and left people wondering how a seemingly “normal” man like Andrew Kehoe could have done something so terrible.

Disco Demolition Night Didn’t Stop the Boogie
In the late 70s, disco was everywhere. Songs like “Disco Inferno,” “I Will Survive” and “Brick House” topped the charts. Disco had been created and embraced by Black people, Latino people, LGBT+ people, and women. It was fun and funky. It was freeing and empowering. …but *some* folks didn’t like having disco balls shoved in their faces. So, when a 24-year-old Chicago shock jock began hosting “death to disco” rallies at local bars, he developed a loyal following of young, disgruntled dudes. The shock jock’s popularity soon caught the eye of the Chicago White Sox. They needed to sell tickets...

AAirpass: American Airlines’ Best Worst Idea
In 1981, American Airlines offered an incredible deal. For just $250k, people could purchase a lifetime pass that entitled them to unlimited first class travel, anywhere the airline flew, for the rest of their lives. People could also purchase a companion pass that would allow anyone to fly with them. They called it the AAirpass. It didn’t take long for the airline to discover that they’d priced the AAirpass too low. Way too low. Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources!

The presidents aren’t sculpted down to their waists. There is no entablature. There is no true hall of records. There isn’t a message, written in three languages, in the hope that it’ll one day become Rosetta Stone 2: Electric Boogaloo. And yet? It’s there! Despite the odds, four 60-foot tall faces of iconic American presidents are carved into a stolen, sacred mountain. Every year, millions of tourists make the trek to take a...

Wait… Does Mount Rushmore Suck? (Part 3)
There are so many reasons why Mount Rushmore National Monument *shouldn’t* exist. Right from the start, there was opposition. Environmentalists called the proposed monument a desecration. Native Americans rightly asserted that the Black Hills — and specifically the Six Grandfathers Mountain (aka Mount Rushmore) — was their property. But that didn’t stop Gutzon Borglum, or his circle of high-powered supporters. Together, they pushed forward. They even manipulated a president! Thanks to a mix of hubris, luck, and money, Mount Rushmore National Monument began to take shape. Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode...

Before Mount Rushmore, There Was Stone Mountain (Part 2)
Before he set his sights on Mount Rushmore, sculptor Gutzon Borglum had a vision for a massive monument to the Confederacy. He figured that Stone Mountain, located just outside of Atlanta, would be the perfect spot for his magnum opus. The United Daughters of the Confederacy agreed. So did their BFFs, the KKK. For years, the project seemed to be going well. It ended in disaster. Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources!

Mount Rushmore: America’s Weirdest Monument (Part 1)
In this series, we’re talking about something… pretty weird! It’s the fact that, roughly 100 years ago, a handful of people thought it’d be a really good idea to carve four gigantic faces into the side of a mountain. But why did they do it? Whose idea was it?? And finally, they were so busy asking if they could… DID THEY EVEN THINK TO ASK IF THEY SHOULD??? In this episode, we take a look at the man who designed Mount Rushmore, Gutzon Borglum. We look at his childhood, his early career, his weird sibling rivalry, and we wra...

“Hunting Hitler” Broke Norm (Part 5)
In the History Channel’s “Hunting Hitler,” a group of experts embark on a disingenuous investigation into what became of Adolf Hitler. They consult unreliable witnesses. They make something out of nothing. They cherry pick evidence, and occasionally, they outright lie. Throughout the show, they ignore the forensic evidence, eyewitness accounts, and thorough investigations that showed what we already know — that Adolf Hitler died in the effing bunker! “Hunting Hitler” might become Norm’s villain origin story. The show broke him. It transformed him. He is now… Evil Norm. Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For thi...

The Doctor Who Podcast Episode #326 – Romans, animations and The Eleven
In another timey-wimey epsiode of the DWP, Michele, James, Phil and Ian join you for an hour’s amble through the various eras of Doctor Who. Timey-wimey you say? Well yes – this was recorded before Russell T Davies played HAVOC with our scheduling, so it misses the recent Series 13 and the latest Blu Ray announcements This will be remedied shortly! We do however cover the new Galaxy Four animation and the wonderful news that Christopher Eccleston is returning to Big Finish for another series of Ninth Doctor audio adventures. The lions share of this episode howe...

E76 Old Timey Podcast
Ethan is away making magic in New York City so Nick and Graham go old school with a chatty old-timey podcast. They talk about what they've been doing since the last show, Graham's new Franken Holga 3D Stereo abomination to make pictures no one can figure out, the arrival of Nick's Lomograflok back for Instax Wide, Nick's appearance on Cameraocity (Cocaine and Waffles), and what a sustainable analog future might look like. Thanks to Robbie Cribbs of Sound Trap Studios (https://soundtrapstudios.com/Sound_trap_studios/Home.html) for letting us use the music.

Binary System Podcast #196 - WTNV #156 "The Trouble With Time"
Original broadcast date October 24, 2019. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2019/10/binary-system-podcast-196-wtnv-156-the-trouble-with-time/ We'll be honest, when we saw the title of this week's Welcome To Night Vale episode we hoped it would be a nifty wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey, Doctor Who-themed story with some Night Vale weirdness mixed in. But the writers love to defy expectations, so instead we got a lighthearted story about everyone in the town dealing with the truth of human existence, the body's inevitable decline, and the inescapable reality of death. HAPPY FALL EVERYONE. After we recapped...

Binary System Podcast #169 - Welcome to Night Vale #144 "The Dreamer"
Original broadcast date March 21, 2019. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2019/03/binary-system-podcast-169-welcome-to-night-vale-144-the-dreamer/ Hey, you know those specialty brownie pans? The ones that have a funky shape so every single brownie is an "edge" brownie? Does anyone out there like those? Because honestly, we've always liked the center brownies better. What? Oh, right, the Night Vale episode. This one was, as usual, entertainingly odd: Pamela Winchell continuing to defy physics, mandatory PTA bake sales, and volunteers(?) of the Blood Space War doing that whole timey-wimey thing with cause and effect. ...
