In some ways Sax's story the inverse of Ivan Ivan made it his life's goal to ultimately fuck over a group for injustices leveled against him. A group made it their goal to fuck over Sax because they felt him making a better instrument was an injustice to them.
Army musicians outside of ceremonies and events sound pretty funny to us today, but do not forget that orders were relayed through instruments because they were pretty god damn loud. Imagine having to hear someone yell to about 100-400 men while cannons and muskets are constantly booming. It's hard enough even with instruments, but it certainly helped. Almost every nation practiced this for good reason.
a time traveller goes to the past with a fully loaded rifle to stop hitler, immediately gets tackled through another portal by a time cop. the cop just says calmly while detaining him, "wrong adolphe".
Napoleon the Third is named ‘the third’ because Napoleon attempted to abdicate to his son to keep the empire intact, it didn’t work, but there was still technically a Napoleon the 2nd(Since Tad asked during the episode).
Future Assailant: I'm here to assassinate Adolf Hitler! Larry 3000: No no no! This is Adolphe SAX! Future Assailant: WHAT?! ...THAT'S FUCKING STUPID! *The moment he threw his gun on the ground, it fired, setting off a chain of events that conked Sax on the back of his head!* Otto: ...W-well... he WAS accident-prone, and he DID sustain a head injury on this day. Buck: Ah *Grabs the assailant* You got lucky, punk! *Hucks him back into the future*
Okay I’m on board with the theory. But what if in an alternate time line he becomes as bad as Hitler. Time travellers go back, but if they kill him it’ll cause a rip in time. So instead they have to mess with him, make his life hell. But then they learn that certain events have to happen no matter what, and only get worse the longer they’re kept from happening. Alternatively, the go back in time and mess with him but end up making a future that doesn’t have time travel.
We loved the revolutions so much we had to do a lot of them. And speaking of the revolution, Robespierre & his time in Paris (also known as "the Terror") would be a great subject for SAH
I imagine the people who sought to kill Adolphe Sax are a consortium of bands directors way in the future who just hate saxophones because they are very loud, sometimes difficult to tune instruments that tend to be played by either the quiet kids or the most obnoxious band kids. Also neither of you are musicians and it really shows lol.
Soundwave yeah you say that until you’ve sat in on the lengthy process of beginning saxophone players trying and failing to tune. So I guess not the worst to tune.
So he was born with negative luck but with the "endure" passive ability that leaves him at 1hp every time he would die
Alex: Let me tell you about the colonization of a continent, the first Tsar of all of Russia, and epics involving gods and men.
Tad: Saxophone guy
I'm just here for the Sax!

And that time cop was a Frenchy.
The first line in his biography should be: "so there I was, just MINDIN MY OWN BUSINESS."
I have never known a life story that was as legendary and absurd as Sax's.
Absolute legend he is.
Dank should cover him on mad lads.
Listening to this while I smack my ween around.

Punished Sax: A man denied his instrument
that cabal of french music nerds invented time travel and went back in time to try and stop him at every moment
Deadass better than drunk history
Well yeah, drunk history is just painful to watch.
Sax: Hey guys, look at this brass music tube I made. It makes a cool sound!
Seemingly everyone: OVER THE FUCKING LINE THERE BUCKO.
Napoleon the Third is named ‘the third’ because Napoleon attempted to abdicate to his son to keep the empire intact, it didn’t work, but there was still technically a Napoleon the 2nd(Since Tad asked during the episode).
Also, uh, since it came up. Before the modern day, most armies used instruments to communicate orders between units.
Napoleon the third was on some pussy baby shit. It's all about the Bismarck train baby. Choo Choo.

He was untouchable by the work of man and god, only time had the ability to end this legend
This is my favorite "history" episode tbh. Legit would have no idea that this guy suffered as much as he did if it weren't for you.
Man I completely forgot about the other french revolutions, I guess everything pales compared to the big boy
Saxacannon, that is all.

So like was Adolphe Sax's permanent objective to survive? Cuz it really seams like it.
Some people get findomed by catfishing neckbeards online
I get findomed by the cost of big brass instruments
The luckiest unluckiest man in the world.
You mention Michael Jordan in space jam but you don’t mention the fact that he too had a hitler mustache at one point

The French Revolution was like 50 years before this
There were several french revolutions. In this episode they're talking about the July Revolution or the Second Revolution of 1830.
No, the *first* French Revolution was like 50 years before this
Damn, the one time I thought this French history class I’m taking in college rn would be useful and I fuck it up.
