ORIGINALLY RELEASED ON PATREON!

We call ourselves 'Give Us the Launch Codes' but true power is if you somehow master TIME! Travis & Tom give their listicles on which historical events would they alter - from Biblical times all the way to as recent as 2010!

CORRECTION:

• 32:03 - Travis wishes to extend ACTUAL apologies regarding not remembering Doug Hutchison as he would have recognized Hutchinson as famous liver-eating monster-of-the-week Eugene Victor Tooms from ‘The X-Files’. Upon remembering, he feels Mr. Hutchison would have been an excellent Rorschach.
