In this two-part episode our hosts, Cayla, Nathan and Halli take a look at three topics of intrigue:

• Christie Pits Park: Christie Pit park was the place of a notorious riot within the city of Toronto. During the start of Hitler's time in office in Germany groups of supporters cropped up across North America. In August of 1933, a group of young nazi's incited a riot at a ballpark, pulling in close to 10,000 people into the fray. Unfortunately, these ideologies wouldn't end there, as we still see them this day.
• The Earl of Rochester: John Wilmot, the 2nd Earl of Rochester was a poet from the 1600s, just not the kind we would expect from that era. Much of his greatest works were smut and for the longest time this was not appreciated, until now
• The Flood Myth: "Instructions of Shuruppak" is one of the oldest documents we know of, the oldest version thought to be from 2600-2500 BC and it was thought to be a text of great wisdom, a document from a father to his son on how to live a good life. But there's more to that, so much more. As it also refers to a great flood, potentially THE great flood
