8:58 "Every class of veterans has come home to total confusion, and no worth." Veterans of the GEORGE WASHINGTON'S army in the Revolutionary War were paid in IOUs, which the government was unable to honor for years. Because these were mostly poor farmers who couldn't wait to get that income for their service, they ended up selling all the IOUs to investors for pennies on the dollar. Years later, once investors had bought up all the IOUs, they pushed the government to make good on their debts, and were able to cash in the IOUs for the full amount. The men who won us this country got screwed out of their paychecks.

That was a hell of a moment. I love Louis, but he always seems to have this desire to be the smartest, most unique person in the room. He’s an interesting and intelligent guy but sometimes he comes off a little pretentious. Sure, there’s a line to be drawn between cowboys and samurai, but chastising Shane’s lack of familiarity with old Japanese films during a podcast meant to be about American presidents was a little annoying. I get the feeling if Shane were to say something like “I love John Wick”, Louis’ knee jerk response would be something along the lines of “that’s just modern soulless Hollywood crap through a projector. If you want to see a good action movie, there’s a French film from 1953 called The Blue Rose starring a guy no one’s ever heard of. That’s a real action movie.” I’m yammering but I’ve been listening to him for decades and I’m surprised I never hear anyone call him out on it. He once said he only play Grand Theft Auto just to go to the farthest edges of the map and see the existential end of the game designers creativity. We get it, Louie. You’re unique.

Louis was lighting Shane up there at the end about ad reads and Patreon; that was too funny with Shane being like “plz stop” 🤣😆. Ol’ boy had to pull rank! Lol jk Louis got some Hunter S Thompson vibes with them shades though! Great episode

[@drewprosser8861]

One of the funniest parts of this pod is the 7 seconds of uninterrupted silence after Shane tries to throw Louis a premise he didn’t like and Shane starting to mess with gardini immediately afterward the school bully energy was hard

[@Demon7899]

do you have a timestamp for this moment? it sounds hilarious

[@douggieharrison6913]

Thank you Louis for keeping this free. I live in a country where I can't pay for this with our currency so I'm so God damn happy I could listen

[@terrygill9799]

I would love to see Shane and Louis START a Comedy/History Podcast I would actually pay for that one. Imagine how much better it would be than @HistoryHyenas ? And that’s saying something because that was the best podcast that has ever graced history or comedy

I think having comedians talking about historical personalities is a great idea. So entertaining. Keep it up matt and shane

[@heressomestuffifound]

Especially when they’re knowledgeable like this. Great video for sure!

[@secinject814]

It's almost always interesting watching two people talking about subjects they're passionate about. but you're right them being comedians does make it more entertaining.

[@talbotdorr682]

This should be one of the most popular videos on KZbin right now. 2 of the best comedians working today, talking about history, and it’s actually interesting. Definitely subbing to this channel. I’ve been waiting since podcasts got big to see somebody get Louie on. Thanks Shane and Matt for finally making it happen!

BEST COMEBACK EVER! RESPECT FOR LOUIS FOR NOT GIVING UP AND BEING DOWN WITH THE DAWGS!

Louis CK,s impressions are all sooo good. His tiny Churchill, Kennedy and Capote impressions are so real it feels they are there for half a second. He has totally practiced those voices.

[@nickkerr5714]

Matt's "family issue" is just a cover, he just didnt want to sit silently for 3 more episodes

[@michaelreed1215]

I went back and listened to old MSSP episodes, and it’s so cool to see how far you guys have come. I remember pre SNL Shane talking about how he was frustrated for not getting booked as much as lesser comics and how down he had gotten on himself… now he’s got a 4 part series with Louis CK and he gets to blow Christian McCaffrey once a month. Proud of the big dawg & the shaman.

[@ChristopherJRobin]

YES! I did not expect a part two but I am so glad there is one! Cannot get enough of this!

[@markkennedy9767]

This is genuinely great. Nerdy and typically irreverent. Love it.

[@tonygibson5171]

Loved these so much. It also reminds me of how Norm was fascinated with Nixon.

[@everything...interesting]

I've liked you guys for a while now, but honestly, what you've been doing the last couple months: legendary. Mad respect to Lou Dawg.

Came back for a refresher on my presidents. Louis moaning and groaning through the ad reads is perfect

O’Connor loves boats. Louis loves trains. Just guys bein dudes.

[@berniegordon6338]

O’Connor also loves dick. We saw all the dawgs in Nashville. Shane, gardini, lemaire, Nate Marshall, Brian six. Everyone was pretty good, Shane was amazing, O’Connor was awful. It was uncomfortable how bad he was.

[@louiseb680]

Excellent podcast. A breath of fresh air instead of the serial murderers, crime stories, etc. Worth the total listen to all episodes.

[@Jdkieddj]

When Louie gets tired of touring, him and shane should really just go all in on comedic history. They do such a good job.

[@lazylion420]

bro I'm just enjoying these exclusive looks inside of Louis' home... he's still rocking the Emmy's and Grammy award and he's got these vintage train cars, cameras, and typewriter in the study... view of the woods, isolated, no neighbors... shit is gangster

[@scottdodge6979]

My favorite quote to come out of the oval office has got to be Truman when he was speaking with Oppenheimer. Oppenheimer was wringing his hands and lamenting about how terrible he felt and how he would never wash the blood from his hands and Truman told him to man the fuck up It was then that Oppenheimer famously told Truman that "I feel I have blood on my hands", which was unacceptable to Truman, who immediately replied that that was no concern of Oppenheimer's, and that if anyone had bloody hands, it was the president. He later remarked to an aide that he never wanted to see that "sniveling weakling again" It just serves as a reminder that not every president reveled in the tough decisions they had to make.

51:39 Shane starts a riff on Louis's classic "of course... but maybe" routine from "Oh My God", but Louis interrupts him to talk about something else

[@scrillagorilla3532]

Two Louis C.K. eps and not a peep out of the Shawnbird. Congrats on successfully training the Gard-dawg.

[@pozloadescobar]

As O&A fans we appreciate Shawn deeply. Opie always stepped on Louis' jokes because of his insecurities. This guy Shawn lets these men create historic audio, and is just grateful to be along for the ride. He should be commended for that

[@KnowOne111]

The ending to this was fucking sensational. Does he ever talk to Matt on our regularly scheduled programming about how awkward it was?

[@evanho4538]

Gard dawg really snuck himself in the shot. He said “I’m a show runner now I gotta get in this.” What a big dawg. Also that day room that they’re in is fucking sick.

Tbh he’s a stand up comedian so he probably had enough time to read books and watch documentaries on them. Unlike the rest of us that work 9-5 or even 12 hours day and then eat and sh** and go to bed without any energy to read books or gain knowledge haha
