    S2 E10: James Garfield - The Lightning President!
    2025/11/24
    In this electrifying season finale of the Beyond the Rabbit Hole podcast, Ken dives deep into the life and legacy of President James A. Garfield, the 20th U.S. president whose brief tenure was cut tragically short by an assassin’s bullet—and a medical disaster that followed. But this isn’t your average history lesson.

    Ken kicks things off with a passionate review of the docudrama series “Death by Lightning”, which dramatizes Garfield’s meteoric rise from log cabin scholar to Civil War general to reluctant president. He breaks down the series’ strengths—its gritty realism, sharp performances, and haunting portrayal of the political chaos of 1881.

    Just as Ken begins unpacking the medical malpractice that arguably doomed Garfield more than the bullet itself, Doc bursts in with absurdist flair. The episode balances historical depth with playful absurdity, as Doc’s tangents lead to unexpected insights—like who (or what) was behind Garfield’s shooting.

  • S2 E9: When Animals Attack...Noses!?

    S2 E9: When Animals Attack...Noses!?
    2025/11/10
    In this wild and whisker-filled installment of Beyond the Rabbit Hole, chaos reigns from the very first boom echoing through Ken’s home studio, The Place to Be. Fueled by sleep deprivation from early-morning F1 races, Ken recounts the shocking moment when his beloved terrier, Bane, channels his inner supervillain—yes, that Bane—and delivers a surprise nose bite that leaves more than just emotional scars.

    Meanwhile, Doc faces his own animal uprising out at The Ponderosa, where a feral feline throws down with the pups in a showdown worthy of a spaghetti western. Between nose-nipping dogs and claw-swinging cats, this episode is a masterclass in turning pet pandemonium into podcast gold. 🐾 Explosions, exhaustion, and animal antics—what more could you want?

  • S2 E8: Saguaro, Sahuaro, Let's Call the Whole Thing Off

    S2 E8: Saguaro, Sahuaro, Let's Call the Whole Thing Off
    2025/10/06
    In this delightfully dusty episode, Ken and Doc dive headfirst into the linguistic desert of Arizona, where even the cacti spark debate. Ken insists on “Sahuaro” like a true old-school Sonoran, while Doc defends “Saguaro” with botanical conviction—sparking an unwitting pronunciation standoff that’s as thorny as the cactus itself.

    But the real chaos begins when a monstrous dust storm rolls in, toppling trees like matchsticks and coating everything in a fine layer of desert drama. The duo wrestles with the absurdity of calling these storms “Haboobs”—a term that sounds more like a rejected band name than a meteorological event. Cue the jokes, the disbelief, and a few awkward attempts to say it with a straight face.

    Then things take a darker turn as Doc unearths the chilling tale of the Oatman Massacre—a brutal 1800's ambush that left seven members of the Oatman family dead and led to the capture of young Olive and Mary Ann Oatman. The story unfolds by tracing Olive’s survival, her years among the Mohave, and the haunting legacy she carried back into settler society.

    Expect dry wit, historical grit, and a whole lot of desert weirdness. This episode is a whirlwind—literally and figuratively.
