CrookIrish Season 3 Episode 10

It's the culmination of C&R's Halloween Spectacular! We do a deep dive into the history of Halloween and the different celebrations that are had in the modern day. Murder tried to give a history lesson on England's Gunpowder Plot, and why Guy Fawkes day is just anti-Papist propaganda - check out the uncut episode on YouTube for the full lesson. Crook lets everyone in on a secret about a certain stuffed bear... SGA lets it slip that everything he knows about Catholics and Protestants in England is from Monty Python.
