Manage episode 444942949 series 3572103
YAR, MATEYS! In honor of Indigenous Peoples' Day, we’re tearing to shreds Adventures in Odyssey’s awful episode celebrating colonialism: COLUMBUS: THE GRAND VOYAGE. The historical inaccuracy is as offensive as it is hysterically stupid, and Pigeon — our resident history degree holder — has the receipts. Join us on our own grand voyage through all the white Christian supremacist baloney that is this episode.
Discussion topics include:
-3-2-1 Penguins
-Phil Lollar’s war against fun
-Lawrence Hodges is canonically closeted
-Lesbian Queen Isabella at Christian school
-Isabella and Ferdinand were UGGOS!
-Pigeon and Percy nerd out further on Spanish history (sorry)
-Whit storyboarding child abuse for the Imagination Station
-Third-layer God!
