Lance Geiger: The History Guy Meets The Restaurant Guys
The Banter
The Guys learn a new term for a long-standing practice: zebra-striping. Do you zebra stripe??
The Conversation
The Restaurant Guys are thrilled to host Lance Geiger, The History Guy. He has a prolific YouTube channel as well as a podcast where he presents history in bite-sized chunks. Lance tells stories about mustard, the banana trade and even poisonings. Listen to Lance! He could save your life.
The Inside Track
The Guys have watched many of The History Guy episodes on numerous topics. They talk with Lance about his motivation for his varied channel.
“Part of it is because to really understand the present, we need to understand the past and try to remember accurately rather than this kind of constant process of rewriting the past to match our present.
But part of it is just because it's a good story. It's fun. It's a channel that's intended to entertain you because I think history sometimes tells better stories than Hollywood does,” Lance Geiger, The History Guy on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2025
Bio
