Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:15):
Pushkin. Hello, Hello, Malcolm Glad. We're here to give you
a preview of the upcoming season of Revisionist History, where
we once again go where no podcast has ever been
so foolish to go.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
On the double wherever it is album down and BENI there.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
You heard that correctly. Pow Patrol, me and my three
year old will defend one of the world's most popular
children's television shows against its critics. Then we get serious.
It's been five years since the death of George Floyd.
We're going to go back and tell that story from
a different perspective. I can tell you this that nobody
despises bad cops more than good cops. Ben ADAPFH. Haffrey,

(01:07):
my esteemed colleague, will launch a detailed investigation into Thomas's
English muffins.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
We've got this seventy five year old plus secret of
how to bake Thomas's English muffins. It's a half a
billion dollar product and he knows it.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
You thought you understood, although there was to understand about
English muffins, you are wrong. And then Ben takes a
raccoon down a rabbit hole.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
Well, the main challenges they work at night, so they're
nocturnal researchers are typically not nocturnal.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Oh yeah, baby, We're going to have a contribution from
the newest member of the Revisionist team, Lucy Sullivan.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
I was like, oh, I have trouble recognizing faces. She goes,
is that why you ignored me for a week? And
I said, what do you mean? This is my nightmare?

Speaker 1 (01:54):
Oh And I nearly forgot to mention we're going to
spend a lot of time with a newly minted Secretary
of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Junior, because
I listened to Joe Rugan tell the story of how
he met Kennedy, and I was rivetted.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
The weirdness moment because we're both staring at each other.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Yeah, I noticed you walking. I'm like, that's it is.
So I said, hey, what's up?

Speaker 1 (02:18):
Exactly what's up with these guys? We have a very
full year coming up. Stay tuned, my friends. Get add
