Softcore History

History #154

A podcast for the casual fan of history. The Wikipedia reader. The kids who grew up with a dad who watched the same 10 hours of World War II specials on The History Channel. Join Dan Regester, Rob Fox, and a weekly guest as they tastefully insert themselves into the past. The only thing we don’t show is our research.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
    Love the show, so many fun facts and crazy stories! Just listened to Drowning in Alcohol and it made me laugh a lot. Also as hilarious as the episode was, the sneezing during the ad at the end just absolutely killed me!! Made me laugh so hard I had to leave this review. Well done.
  • Ewalsh 715
    Hilarious
    The Softcore boys unearth the truth behind the Star Wars lore, join last-row Lopez on another glorious quest, and share lots of anti-nerd propaganda. Chef’s kiss!
  • ajtejera
    Love it
    Best history show
  • see hyey we iuhabfchssn
    Fun
    Fun and flirty way to learn history you’d never learn in school pooooooyaaaahhhhh
  • PilotBJD08
    Homeschool
    I started using this show for history class while homeschooling. I’m now not allowed to see my kids due to this. 5/5 stars. Totally worth it.
  • Abe Lincoln’s testicle wart
    Skippity toilet rizz
    Love the show I’m a trucker and do a 478 mile route very day, keeps me entertained for hours at a time then I go home and bore my wife with useless history facts and stories

    Question
    Is kingsman actually good or is it the undiagnosed talking?
  • Curly’s wife
    Peak Mediocrity
    Consistently funny with interesting and varied topics. Dan and Rob are a dynamic duo similar to that of Lenny and George in both intellect and Dan’s history with women (presumably). Jake is a traitor who abandoned his bros for strange clams. 10/10 would recommend
  • krakrakain
    Did you know?
    That there was a second second Landbridge from Europe to North America
  • Mikemonroe14
    Killer history channel!
    During the holiday break when the rest of drinkin bros aren’t producing episodes, I was left with you guys as a last resort. You are not added to my follow list.
  • Whatever isn’t taken yet
    Okayest history podcast
    Have you ever wanted to absolutely tank a conversation with an out of pocket history “fact” that you can’t back up? Yeah me neither but it’ll happen

    Leper King Root Canal
    Listened to the Leper King episode while getting four fillings refilled and a crown that ended up needing to be a root canal. Thankfully the Softies were there to soften the blow!
  • thankfulparent
    Awesome
    If you’ve never listened. Please start with “Drowning in Alcohol”.
  • AHHHHAHAHHAHAH

    Best podcast
    Only podcast I consistently listen to. One of the best on the market. Interesting topics; not too many inside jokes.

    Fun history
    They bring fun and overlooked history issues to light in a way everyone can understand and laugh at.
  • HBiv
    Come for the history, stay for the banter.
    As you will learn “sh*t don’t change”. Interesting story’s sprinkled into friendly, borderline sensual, conversations.

    Great Side Tracks
    Currently listening to the Communist Whale episode and Rob had such a long side track about his frat house-sag curtain-turtles in the room-mustard gas-pissing session that I completely forgot that the WHOLE episode was about whales. 😂 Been listening for over 3 years, keep up the great work!

  • BKCotton
    My favorite podcast but
    Would it kill yall to have a guest on who has some semblance of not being a liberal? I’m sure it’s happened and I’ve missed it or forgotten but good lord let Dan pick someone who isn’t a female clone of Jake
  • MountainJW
    The Inquisition of Jake
    Two papists bully a Jewish man until he leaves the crew… 5 stars.
  • de scr3w the apple 69 69
    Interesting and funny
    A good listen with a great backlog of weird subjects.
  • Sak12455
    Really good pod
    Go gators
  • Pocket Waste
    Delightfully smart and funny
    Yep
  • J_Stubbz

    Love the show
  • Imawarriors
    Sawfly
    Great show. 3 frat bro’s with indiscernible voices casually explain historic events or people. You will laugh and find yourself fighting the urge to pop the collar on your polo shirt
  • Barchack
    Outstanding!
    This is the best history podcast out there. Come for the medium dives into interesting topics, stay for the banter.
  • Zues 2019

    If Jake says Our Lord and Savior’s name 2 more times on the pod, will JC jump out like Beetlejuice? I

    Softcore Math
    Long time listener, first time commenter. With the boys trying to figure how much beer flooded London, a standard keg of beer is about 1/2 of a barrel. So the one fermenting barrel letting out 3500 barrels would be roughly 7000 kegs worth of beer.
  • friend of George
    Drink Dan!
    Loads of gab, laughs, history. Less Jeff days, more Rob dumping loads in Courtney stories.
  • Claverdiere
    Drunk Dan
    The episode where Dan gets drunk rivals the old school alcohol breathalyzer test one. Great episode and he 100% pukes in Jake’s car.
  • Stu0129
    Drowning in Alcohol
    Thank you Dan, that was fantastic…LOL! Been listening for two or three years now and this One was for the fans! These guys are great! Something.. something…History too! Also….Dan is still alive, right?
  • Dkhunley

    Drowning in Alcohol
    One of my favorite podcast episodes ever. Will say I’ve never listened to a podcast then watched it. Well worth it. Keep it coming boys!
  • gratandy
    Let Dan Drive
    After the “Drowning In Alcohol” episode the review was earned. Truly for the fans.
  • Tmarsh050890
    Better than soft core porn
    Can we get a drunken soft core history episode at least once a month? Might make Jake’s episodes more interesting. I love Jake………….but seriously…..
  • psasonic
    Here for the wenus
    I heard I get a pee pee touch.
  • pancho villa taco
    Gotta love this train wreck!
    The devolution from solid coherent conversation to the conclusion of Jake being crowned the furher with brief stops at “you wanna wrestle” and possible fights for dominance make this the best thing that happened today! Keep up the quality work. Much love from another degenerate Florida resident and long time fan of the show.
  • Tri-Jose13
    Lol Dan the man
    That 1000 review celebration was everything We wanted
  • shylo evans
    My dose of bro time for the week
    I don’t have friends because I’m a bad person, so I imagine this is what it’s like hanging out with people who like me a little…I love you guys? Ya. Something like that and stuff.
  • Prodigal Nephew
    Need them to get famous so they make more content
    …But not too famous to the point where they get lazy
  • Owi54002
    Get drunk!!
    Glad to review an get, I don’t remember, Dan?? Maybe, well anyway I’m trying to help him get wasted on show!! Good work.
  • westtxfarmer
    Informative, but relaxed
    Love the show, it’s fascinating and not crazy super in depth. I do enjoy the conversations before they get into the topic
  • DxROCK6
    Finally leaving a review..
    I would have left a review years ago but I’m a green text bubble guy. Finally decided to use my wife’s phone and leave the review. The fellas in this show blend the appropriate amount of satirical comedy and loose history to make for a rather entertaining listen. The landscaper/baker from Brick city brings a good amount of knowledge as well as a good understanding of conspiracy theories, when he is there. The Hill Adjacent descendent is clearly the work horse behind the scenes. Not in his research or presentation of material, but more as the guy that makes it possible for us to enjoy it. He also dropped one of the best lines I have heard from the whole network recently in “Pots Tots”. Which needs a shirt btw. Hot Bob is the one I personally relate to most, with the Age of Empires references and love of all things baseball and war history. He does a good job with research and delivery of material and knows a decent amount of history. Even tho he went to a “squishy” school. I look forward to listening to the show every week. Keep it up fellas! Enjoy your drinks Delco, cheers!

    Can’t wait for zooted Dan
    My bf is a long time drinkin bros fan and introduced me to this show about 6 months back and I honestly listen more than him now 😂 but maybe it’s that I’m a poor or my Jewish heritage (s/o Jake pls keep this job you need it) I’ve listened to almost every episode so far and never pay for subscriptions but this is the only show I’ve considered it for bc of their crazy dark and sarcastic humor that reminds me of my nerdy jock older brothers and frat bro friends and I love it. Highly recommend to the history girlies out there who appreciate a sarcastically controversial yet relatable content! Also pls do an episode about Brigham Young bc as a recovered Mormon, he did some f’d up pedo stuff that most ppl don’t know yet 3 unis named after the dude 🙃🤮
