    May 12 2022

    This week in episode 7 of season 2, just like the british forces we will be following, we make our presence known loud and proud! How do we do this? Powered by the fuel of history and non-canonical direct to video sequels! Don't understand yet? That's ok, just hop on in and find out!

    Come with Paul and Nolan as we learn about the origins of things we all thought we knew, like how and why the Pilgrims came to the new world, the surprise attack that took New York by surprise, and why you should never pray you sailors met god before they even leave port.

    All that and more, so make sure to tune in for each and every episode as we continue this crazy and hilarious journey on BACKROW LESSONS!!!

  • #2.06 - Dictator-Head-On-A-Stick (Oliver Cromwell & The Restoration)
    Apr 28 2022

    This week in episode 6 of season 2, things get really crazy when small disagreements over trade lead from all out war to long, drawn-out trials for people that are already long gone. I promise you, it is even weirder and more dumb than you can already believe. And that is even before you even factor in if they got the right people!! Grab you bird eggs and aim them right at Nolan and Paul as we dive in and connect how 17th century bear wrestlers, hiding in oak trees, and a 450+ year old severed head all play into the story of the founding of America!!!

    All that and more, so make sure to tune in for each and every episode as we continue this crazy and hilarious journey on BACKROW LESSONS!!!
