The Healing Buzz of “Drunk History”

Drunk history worked exactly twice for me: Fredrick Douglas, and the Night Before Christmas. Every other episode I watched after that was so so.

I agree, although it was a different episode.

Duncan trussel's Tesla episode was masterfully done:

the other few episodes I bothered with didn't do it for me.

Watching him flop around the floor, saying "I can't do this, I'm too drunk!" and puke in a toilet while telling that was unenjoyable to watch, for me.

Duncan is so much better on his own podcast or on Joe Rogan Experience talking about things than this. He normally speaks with a lot more enthusiasm and energy, and that's more entertaining.

I'm a big fan of Frederick Douglass. Makes me wonder if there are any videos online of the episode in question.

My Bondage and My Freedom is one of the few assigned reading books I really enjoyed.
