“I don’t mean to discriminate, Some of my best friends are alive” genius.

NordVPN doesn't pay him enough, the ads are too good.

26:15 So Midas was specifically blessed by Dionysius. When Midas asked for the Gold Touch, Dionysius says "That's a bad idea". Midas' wasn't tricked, he was just a bit short-sighted. He wouldn't need "Get out of jail" clause, he'd just need to stop asking for dumb things. He could have said "Give me the power to turn whatever I choose into Gold" and Dionysius would have given that. But Midas asked "Everything I touched" and ignored the warnings on how that was a really dumb thing to ask for.

the "some of my best friends are alive" joke gets me every time without fail, so good

Disrespectful. My father died in a Mythology.

I can't believe that the Internet Historian is friends with Stede Bonnet!

I come back to rewatch this from time to time because "What is a mythology? Everyone get down, this is a mythology!" has become ingrained into my brain

Pyrocynical would be very happy to know he’s considered “classically beautiful” enough to be a mythological woman.

I feel like he opens a dictionary, slams his finger on a word then make a YouTube video on it

"nono im not trying to discriminate, some of my best friends are alive"

The fact hades wasn’t pulling a trick was kinda amazing, minus making the guy think he was being tricked...which made him fall for his own impulses..damn that’s a good trick

"Sir, someone's planning to attack Hades!" "Myself, my realm, or my son?" "...yes"

It’s good we clarified Nord-man isn’t in the klan.

“She was a beautiful woman” Pyrocynical’s face on a stock image

The story of David and Bathsheba (the bathing woman) is even more messed up than they mentioned. David actually got her pregnant, tried to get the guy to go home and sleep with his wife so he'd think it's his kid, but the guy was too loyal to his army regiment or whatever and refused to go home till the war was over. So David wrote a letter to have the guy put on the front lines and have everyone else step back to make absolutely certain the man would be killed, and then had the man deliver the letter ordering his own execution

I love how Hades says "Oh me wife!" as if he's just noticed the sink overflowing

“You’re at war.” “Uh huh.” “With the Japanese.” “Not again.”

“Not in the klan it’s just a hood” Finally they admit it

The editors really good. For example, there's the fire crackling sound effect that plays in the background that add for immersion. Most people probably wouldn't even notice and yet it was added. Mad respect for him.

For the record, when Socrates was chilling preparing to drink the poison, everyone wanted to help him make a grand escape and he was like Nah Poison
