Dirt Nap City - The Most Interesting Dead People In History
Dirt Nap City is the podcast about the most interesting dead people in history. In each episode, Alex and Kelly dive into the life of a famous person that you have heard of, but probably don't know much about. Our stories are about actors, entrepreneurs, politicians, musicians, inventors, explorers and more! We also cover things that used to be popular but have fallen out of favor. Things like pet rocks, drive in theaters, Jolt Cola, and many other trends of yesterday make up our "dead ends". But whether we are talking about interesting historical figures or past trends, the show is funny, light-hearted, entertaining, informative and educational. You will definitely learn something new and probably have some laughs along the way. Everyone will eventually move to Dirt Nap City, so why not go ahead and meet the neighbors?

The Burning Question of the Yule Log - A Dirt Nap City Christmas Special
Get ready to cozy up by the fire, maybe with a mug of wassail, as your favorite word nerds, Alex and Kelly, dive into the frost-covered origins of the word that gives us the "Yuletide" season. In this special Christmas episode, we're not just celebrating—we're excavating the deep, fascinating history of "Yule", tracing its roots back through Old English gēol and the Old Norse jól, a midwinter festival that predates the Christian Christmas by centuries. Prepare for a linguistic journey that takes us far from silent nights and into the noisy, fiery celebrations of the ancient Germanic and Nordic peoples!
