History is full of mysteries. But there may be no mystery as mysterious as the Sea People. These anonymous nautical raiders hit the Egyptian empire hard and terrorized the ancient Mediterranean for decades, destroying entire civilizations in the process. Then they just up and disappeared. But don't worry, comedian and streamer AJ Salas has it all figured out. He has a theory about who the Sea People really were that will blow all those snooty historians right out of the water. Pun? Intended.

And we're back! Ever heard of the New York Marathon? You know, the world's largest marathon that covers all five boroughs of the city and attracts 100K applicants every year? Well guess what chump, you've been had! Our guest this time around is returning fave Will Hines, and he's got a shocking theory about how (and why) the New York Marathon has been faked every year since 1970. It's a tangled web of corporate greed, bs health trends, out-of-work actors, staged photo ops, police corruption, and other New York-ness. Oh and ps - all your friends who say they've run a marathon are LIARS.
