    Hi girls, this was recorded pre-american election, so if you're wondering why we don't cover his involvement... that's why. In this episode, comedian and friend of the pod Brendan Kane walks the girls through the history of Mr. Joseph Rogan and his strange and contemtable actions throughout his career. This ep is a bit more R-rated than usual and it's Brendan's fault. We also discuss Pitch Perfect, Improv comedy, and Brendan's batman costume.Blair and Brendan's Show in Toronto!Sign up on Patreon for ad-free early episodes, plus bonuses! patreon.com/GirlHistoriansHosted by: Blair MacMillan and Carley ThorneFeaturing: Brendan KaneMusic by: Jacob OllivierCover artist: Nicola LyttleGirl Historians on InstagramGirl Historians on Youtube
