Here is a teaser of our bonus for this week with Matt Christman to hear the rest of it go to

Patreon.com slash the k-die helper show.

And how did you get into history and politics?

History was that it's funny I was on an anime podcast which was a terrible idea because I did not

go anime and I was they just showed me an anime for the first time and I was like that sucks

And then they asked me,

like, were you in Pokemon's near a kid?

And I said, no, I saw kids playing Pokemon,

but I did not partake.

And then they said, well, what were you into?

And I kept thinking about it in pop culture terms.

And I just had to say, I don't know what I was into.

But then I realized later, I wasn't in any of the pop culture stuff

because I was into the Civil War.

Hell yeah. Civil War reenacting.

I was a Civil War kid and that was the big thing.

Makes it sound like that's when you were born.

I basically, I had the books, I had a ton of books, I had time life books, I had like these big book of like battle maps with like little I had Antietam yeah I had I used to draw

Civil War battles. Oh my gosh sure had like this big book of

a sketch paper and I would draw a civil war battle for one of them.

I think I do at my mom's house.

One of them was it was I had to tape four sheets together. It was the Battle of Gettysburg
