That was a horrible week. But now we’ve got some surreal takes on the apocrypha to cheer you up!
"This week we celebrate the Ides of March with the suggestion to replace the national anthem with “Sweet Caroline.” Also: what to do if you’re an interim senator, what really happens in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, why the Catholic Church left Copernicus alone, and we try to make sense of the extremely unhelpful Roman calendar and two very high courts. Also Yo Yo Ma in a bathroom with a wombat. Which totally happened."
This week it’s all about fake epics, fake things about epics, and solid snake. For some reason. (via Not Actually Happening Episode 22: The Walum Olam)
This week Aaron Burr gets mispronounced, Russian peasants stop sleeping in their own ovens, and Steven has all the anxiety dreams at once. (via Actually Happening Episode 39 — Aaron Burr’s Contiguous Adventures)
Holy crap - it’s TOPICAL jokes about the pope. As opposed to not-so-topical ones, like we usually do. And OMG, it’s a REAL HISTORIAN.

This week we put pasties on the Woman of Willendorf, send Robocop to Florence, and take Oliver Wendell Holmes’ lunch money. (via Actually Happening Episode 37 — Miss Islippi)
This is a great episode, but really, this is all about the best graphic I’ve ever seen in my life.
Good stuff this week - especially the alternate theories of the end of the world, and whose veins are actually flowing with the blood of keith richards.
