Originally published to Patreon on 9/11/2021.
In this third edition of Shano's Brainos (really, that's still what we're calling it) on the 20th anniversary of 9/11, Shane talks through the disastrous and ongoing war on terror, how imperial ideologies get formed, and considers what it means to live through history.
For our final Patreon episode, we decided to finish our trivia series with one last blow out tournament covering familiar topics such as World War I, ScientoIogy, Jeffrey Epstein, and maritime facts.
Thank you all so much for being part of this project with us. We love you and hope you enjoy our totally not-chaotic final episode.
Until we meet again, stay cool folks.
