Toulouse-Lautrec Ep 4: Onomatopoeia Slurping and Squishing Sounds (04:12:51)
Jinmaku! Jinmaku! Jinmaku! Go get’em buddy! My dude OWNS the makuuchi division. Also, if there’s one thing people should take away from this episode, is that William-Adolphe Bouguereau is a connoisseu...
Toulouse-Lautrec Ep 3: Tapajou, le Petit (03:10:00)
Henri, Adele, Alphonse, Dead Gary, Odon, Napoleon III, the Grandmothers, Alix, Amédée, MIT Math Nerd Steve (from Pollock), Charles, Piss Pons, the Black Prince… We. Are. Back! Along with several addit...
Toulouse-Lautrec Ep 2: Meet the Toulouse-Lautrec-Montfas, du Boscs, and Tapié de Céleyrans (03:00:18)
Our adventure begins with the Grandmothers, a footnoted sister, more mounted heads than fireplaces (which is saying something), and some thick-ass man-thighs.
As we make our way through French history...
Toulouse-Lautrec Ep 1: But, First... A Tale of French Lineage in Three Acts (05:32:45)
Before we begin the Toulouse-Lautrec journey, we of course need a 5 hour fever dream of French history. It only took me one episode in this series for me to lose my mind, so that's pretty exciting :) ...
Frida Kahlo Ep 7 of 7: Viva la Vida (02:27:43)
In the Frida finale, we alternate between having lots of fun and exploring the cavernous depths of human suffering. But we also have fun? If you're here at the end, thank you so, so much for taking th...
Frida Kahlo Ep 6 of 7: Parrots, Turkeys, and Russian Roosters...Oh My! (02:40:46)

Frida Kahlo Ep 5 of 7: до свида́ния (02:54:33)
The episode that broke me.
11/28 update: two-parter finale is on the way soon. Apologies for the delay, it's been a crazy few months and anything under 4 hours for the finale would've been a crime.
Frida Kahlo Ep 4 of 7: The Moment You Realize You're Pregnant (01:41:54)
In a rollercoaster of an episode, we learn about mural negotiations, chicken salad sandwiches that curb masturbation, and which type of gringo is worst. Along the way, we’ll figure out which type of ...
Frida Kahlo Ep 3 of 7: A Friend Beyond the Glass (01:10:47)
While Frida recovers-ish from the accident, she starts down a new path. This path will take her to a magical place beyond a window, the Communist Party, a Tina Modotti party, and a wedding party.
D...
Frida Kahlo Ep 2 of 7: Meet the Kahlos (01:15:28)

Frida Kahlo Ep 1 of 7: But, First... A Tale of Olmecs, Pulque, and a Pastry War (01:59:37)
Frida Kahlo has become a name synonymous with strength and independence. She was born during a crucial time in Mexico’s history and touched the lives of everyone she met. She also was ridiculously hi...
Caravaggio Ep 8 of 8: A Baroque'n Man on the Run (Part 2) (00:57:47)
The Don Pepe Incident, a story about Lucy we’d all like to forget, nerd-ceremonies, and a complicated reunion. Then, things get really, really fancy. We’re finally wrapping up our story in the only w...
Caravaggio Ep 7 of 8: A Baroque'n Man on the Run (Part 1) (01:20:40)
In a post-Nooch world, a comparatively short period in Caravaggio’s life is jam-packed with a comparatively large amount ludicrousness, so the finale is now a two-parter.
What do you do when you’re o...
Caravaggio Ep 6 of 8: Tennis Balls (01:29:26)
Greg Rotolanti, butter, Fillide, sex-wrinkles, a resolute and purposeful “Jenis,” The Nooch, a magic flying house, and tennis. I honestly don’t know what else to say. I for sure lost it on this one.
@...
Caravaggio Ep 5 of 8: What'd You Call Me?! (01:04:04)
Baglione, Mao, The Nooch... As adversaries emerge, lines are drawn, and words are exchanged. Really, really, ridiculous words with unimaginable fallout.
Caravaggio finds a brother figure in Onorio Lo...
Caravaggio Ep 4 of 8: Hitting the High Notes (00:59:12)
The new Counter-Reformation mix tape dropped…ya heard? It’s a music-heavy episode, not all of which is appropriate for work. Maybe not everybody’s work, but, most people’s work. Cardinal Del Monte has...

These are the quest...
Caravaggio Ep 1 of 8: But, First...A Tale of Fish Sandwiches, Butter Towers, and Judas Cradles (00:56:28)
One of the greatest and most enigmatic painters, born into an insane time. He was also a complete nightmare. This is the story of a man whose poor behavior was matched only by his ability to capture t...
Jackson Pollock Ep 9 of 9: Death, Sadness, and a Bunch of Math (00:23:02)
I feel like the title of this episode really bottom-lines what’s happening here. Clement Greenberg takes a stand at Jackson’s funeral, Lee doesn’t stand near anyone, and I can’t stand math.
We final...
Jackson Pollock Ep 8 of 9: A Long and Winding Road (01:16:34)
Jackson begins to scare even the most grizzled of Bonacker, Lee starts to assert her independence, and we meet a man named Bootie.
So have a chat with a secret prostitute at the Cedar Tavern, discover...
Jackson Pollock Ep 7 of 9: Mrs. Schaefer and the Barbiturates (00:50:28)
This episode flies off the rails. Roger $%#$@ Wilcox comes front and center and there’s also a crazy brawl in a mud pit. Jackson becomes ridiculously famous, drops a bunch of c-bombs, and somebody ma...
Jackson Pollock Ep 6 of 9: Dribbles, Drips, and Dropping Loads of Paint (00:42:03)

Jackson Pollock Ep 4 of 9: Somewhere Out There (00:33:09)
Get your paintbrushes ready! Jackson learns a new form of therapy that’s not based at all in science or medicine, we learn that Kandinsky made some stuff up, and the United States military learns that...
