This show is freakin HILARIOUS!! If you like history, and know anything about it, you'll surely like this show. It points out just how ridiculous and/or funny the crazy truths of the past can actually be!! BEST HISTORY LESSONS EVER!! (Romans drank their own urine, using it as a medicine. *gagging*)

I love how they teach historical facts most people would never know about, it is funny and upbeat, and makes events in history easier for kids. I live showing it to my class when we have free days.
