after the wheel!? 'mon Fin
Just FYI Fin, the background noises in your titles kind of sound more like young children being murdered than just regular historical citizens! 😂
@FinTaylorcomedy I've only recently stumbled across your work. I haven't stopped crying with laughter ever since. Quick question... are you guys a.d.d, or autistic slightly, because I'm 44, these videos are basically exactly the same as my thoughts and chats, for example. I tell someone that I have to pop out and get some milk and an hour hour later I'm talking about arc minutes and arc seconds via the fact I saw a bus that was green in 1983, and then find a circle back to milk. I thought that was normal. Turns out , people think im wierd!!! Only took them 44 years to mention it. Then saw your stuff and thought how funny and similar i am. Oh and I went to similar school. Btw my wife left me after 10 years, who invented the net curtain has just popped into my head. So basically I'm just saying, love your vids. Thanks
Wow, did the titles get changed/trimmed out because of me?! 😲
My Dad passed away suddenly on the 20th Jan. He got me into comedy and would have wanted me to not be sad all the time and watching your content was the first thing that made me laugh and make this more bearable so thank you Fin.
Cringe.
@@sponge6197😂
That's actually funny in itself that Cromwell in Ireland cheered you up. I tip my pitch-cap to you, sir.
@@RottingYoda I’m just a sucker for genocidal maniacs!
My dad passed very suddenly on the 3rd. Weirdly, I also discovered Finn vs the Internet just a couple days after.
Hope you are coping alright x
Anyone else feel this series is the test match cricket of Fin Taylors UA-cam? It's long, not much happens and all in all utterly pointless yet very charming.
I love it.
3rd umpires being called in alot more 😂
Yup, for true connoisseurs only...or just sad fucks with nothing else better in their lives to do!
This is scratching an itch that collecting Horrible History magazines as a kid has left
I used to know absolutely nothing about cromwell and now im happy to report that I somehow now know even less
He was a genocidal manic and a complete kunt. Nothing else to know
It's the English way to know nothing about your history
This may be the single best history podcast ever
Can’t wait until they start talking about the English Civil War in part 3
There was a civil war in England?!
@@lonianderson5927 we even had a pitchfork war
@@lonianderson5927..Yes and it was fucking pointless
Came for the war, stayed for the bucket
I stayed for the toilet
I feel like they kind of glossed over the whole bucket thing
Agreed, more bucket focus next time boys
Came in the bucket
I am preparing for my 'Life in the UK' test. This series covers so much information with great accuracy that I don't need any other study sources. Thanks Lads!
I hope you like where you’re from!
@@Gomolon95😂
I was late to the Fin Taylor party. My mum passed away 19th November last year and stumbled across fin v the Internet a day or two after. You've helped me massively mate, truly hilarious bloke ❤
I did History and I remember everyone asking me what I wanted to do for work after my degree… I had no idea obviously, was too busy getting stoned.. but this is it, this is what I wanted to do. Use my degree to sit on my arse vaguely talking about history whilst getting paid. You my friends are living the dream
Never been prouder of our bins than watching the NYC mayor do an unveiling of their "revolutionary" wheelie bins like last year lmao
To be fair, it’s only the wheels that are revolutionary.
I’ll fetch my coat …
You've made my commute this week a breeze!! Cracked me up!! Keep it up!!
You're the best Fin. Been binging your stuff the last two days and you're the funniest guy on UA-cam right now.
Bucket history : the War of the Bucket, was fought in 1325 between the rival city-states of Bologna and Modena. The war was over 300-year-long struggle between Guelphs and Ghibellines. it was caused by the Modenese stealing a bucket from a Bolognese well.
I guess they just thought
'Fuck it',
And took it,
(The Bucket).
How the fuck do you build a wall out of bolognese
there was a south american war called the war of the vase in similar circumstances.
There was also a war fought in Yugoslavia over a glass bottle in different circumstances …
The bucket was actually just a prank they played after the war had already started. It started as one city supported the Holy Roman Wmpire and the other supported the pope
Im sick as fuck right now with the flu, and these 2 Fin vs History shows have been absolutely carrying me through life.
Thank goodness for living in a post bucket era
It's a flu not aids
Brilliant pod chaps, I really enjoyed revisiting something I'd forgotten, but this time it was interesting and funny. Can't wait to see what's next!
the Harry Enfield deepcut at the end really caught off guard. Eugh, the Daily Mail
As a man in Gloucester, we still have no fucking idea what is going on. The turnips are mega though
Gloooooouuuucccssssstttterrrrrrrrrr
The bass is making his warts hum😂😂😂
Learned absolutely nothing and enjoyed it immensely. Exactly how a podcast should be.
It's amazing how through comedy they hit on some hard truths , Gary Lineker for example.
You guys should do something similar talking about the American revolution. I'd love to hear a British perspective on the war.
Yes please!!!🙏
Did not expect to see rudakubana dressed as Cromwell today, but great thumbnail 😂
My new favourite, keep it up lads
Finn sold me a dodgy pill at a rave a few years ago.
So glad I found this before my exam on the civil war tomorrow......
You could have talked about prides purge which lead to the formation of the rump parliament where a majority of MPs were not allowed entry into parliament with only supporters of Cromwell and his model army were allowed in. Some MPs were even arrested. The parliament would then be known as the rump parliament even then with this about half of the MPs didn't agree with the treatment of charles and refused to negotiate under the terms of Cromwell. When charles asked to be tried by parliament Cromwell refused as he knew that parliament would be against the execution so he set up a trial with only the most loyal people to him inviting 135 people with only 68 people turning up with the rest refusing to be involved and only 59 of those people signed it.
The reebok socks really let that outfit down.
"Buckets are around" 😂
40:35 as a scot, i think about this sometimes. Kilts and shortbread really cleaned up our rep
Also helping invent the modern world
It’s crazy how the Irish love a Scot but hate us English.
The Scots also get away with the Empire but your lads were front and centre have a belting time too.
@@tomben6180
On an abstract, national level that’s true, but not necessarily the people.
Far more Irish people have familial connections to England than to Scotland, and we’ll take any English person over a Scot in a bowler hat and orange sache, but England as an entity just has far more negative associations here than Scotland, even if Scots were central to colonisation of Ulster…
Plus, the historical and cultural links between Ireland and Gaelic Scotland just run deeper than with anyone else.
There’s a whole war about a bucket in Bologna in 1325, you should do a show about it
This is going to be the best series coming out in 2025
This feels like a step up from the first episode, I found it much funnier
I subscribed for this

Made my day uploading this
Unreal mate. So happy I have discovered your little niche in the realm of the interwebs!
This is like Drunk History but even more fucked 😂 love it.
Now, you guys don't have to credit me. But I think, each season of this pod you dress in more period outfits going back further in time 🤣😂🤣
Hope they know about the bucket war, one side gained a soilder by the end of the war
Funny how calling Cromwell robust in Ireland is a remark that passes on the rest is history, yet you'd never hear them say Hitler was robust in Poland.
Have you met WW2 historians I reckon they might say that about hitler haha. If it's any consolation Cromwell banned Christmas in England, the boring bastard. So if you think about we're all victims here.
Distance?
Seething Irish don't realise the rest in history chaps were being jokingly sarcastic in the original comment.
😂 "the tallest dwarf "
As a man called Dan Walker I find 49:30 extremely offensive 🤣🤣
and today on Mid-Morning Matters, we're asking: Who Invented the Skip?...
Is that man's name actually Horatio?
Named after the greatest Englishman that ever lived to be fair.
@tomben6180 Hamlet's bff?
@@porcchopz Lord Nelson.
The thumbnail😂
33:42 - My favourite Matrix quote
I'd love to see this animated.
Nothing about Guy Fawkes? Did I miss that 😂
Just reading "robust" in quotation marks like that made me piss myself.
interbellum
Word of the day
*countdown noise*
The levellers, new model army, I thought these were bands?
Who invented the skip?
High Anglican church is a straight boyfriend with a bisexual she/they girlfriend.
I've never seen a show get as immediately side tracked by something as this. 😅
This title got me running to the video.
There's a war called "The War of The Bucket" which needs coverin
Love it
Came for the war, came in a bucket
Interesting story about Cromwell😂😂😂
Dolphin in a bath tub?
This history of household appliances
Bucket history episode please 😂
Scotland invented trains
Kinda. First full scale steam locomotive was made by Richard Trevithick who was from Cornwall, he work alongside with William Murdoch who was from Scotland - he had made some small scale steam powered carriages. Murdoch and Trevithick were working alongside each other in Cornwall to produce steam powered water pumps for mines. They are said to have discussed ideas about steam power, and that Murdoch certainly had influence in inspiring Trevithicks design. There is no hard evidence for Murdoch ever making a large steam powered locomotive. Hence, it would be silly to say that it was invented by the scots. You could argue it was a joint effort between the English/Cornish and the Scottish, or purely English - but definitely not a Scottish invention.
@ I was thinking of James Watt ngl. Thanks for the correction though :)
@@SamuelHamer-Mathew-p5cnah wait I was right. James Watt invented the watt engine which could drive early locomotives. However nothing like the proper passenger trains that came after. Still thougj kinda gets it by technicality
@ Yeah I think you could argue it was heavily inspired by Murdoch and Watts earlier works, and quite possible without their influence that Trevithick wouldn't have been able to make a large high pressure steam engine.
Episode 3, sort the mic levels out you dopes
Is that Penfold?
I went to Mao's tomb in Tiananmen Square, he looked like a waxwork dummy.
❤❤❤🎉
That intro is a tad awkward over speakers
Please increase the volume
Yeah it wasn't great. An improvement on all the plosives from the previous video at least!
buckets were invented in newcaslte in 9,800 BC so we could smoke tac more efficiently, egyptians were writing with pictures, who do you believe more?
Paris is a toilet
Can we get a podcast from Fin, please?!
It’s out on all audio platforms linktr.ee/finvshistory
@FinTaylorcomedy Amazing!
Ansum job
Wtf is it with boys and jizzy biscuits?
From what I understand, and this isn't from any kind of personal experience, it's very much a private boys boarding school thing. It basically takes fairly normal teenage sexual experimentation and infuses it with less healthy notions of class, dominance and masculinity.
If you are a student in a single-sex boarding school and there are no girls around to experiment with, then you make do with other boys instead. Similar to in a prison. And it's seen as far less gay to be masturbating with a bunch of other boys if there is competitive and bullying aspect to it. That way you convince yourself that you're not all jerking off together simply for fun (because that would be gay) but rather you're doing it as a competition and to humiliate the losing boy.
average age of marrige was 25 in the uk during the 1600's, legal age was 12. source Google ai so must be true right??

On the other hand, London hardly has any English.
It’s a comment section, you’re not canvassing for a meeting mate
Thank heavens.
@@5h0wmanX gee buddy, for such a funny video you would assume comment section would have a sense of humor.
Awful
Couldn't give a fuck about history.. Which is handy cause this pod is 95% chatting shit and 5% VERY loose history. Keep it up boys!
I guess you probably don't care because I'm commenting so you got your engagement but this series is shit.
Fair enough.
I think it's good
Is this a place to actually discuss the history? Or is that a bit gay?
Peter Dinklage looks photoshopped.
FIRST
Cromwell gets a bad wrap, much of it based on Stewart restorationist proppaganda.
Mmmmm I think Ireland might argue with you about Cromwell deserving his reputation
Typical Brit genocide denier
@Pehrin187 Depends on what they are arguing. Famously for example the city of Drogheda, often raised as a subject of particular brutality. But the historical evidence doesn't show anything overly notable.
Plus, what's often forgotten Is the rather important element, that being the Confederate wars and prolonged Tory actions, resulted in conflict that started before the English civil war, and continued after it had concluded. The result of such was fairly large death toll, these were not, again unusual for the time (see the wars of religion)
@@gshiretvthere kinda wasn't, but also was. The genocides started by what would become the Irish confederate forces, on the Anglo Scots. This would lead to a series of reprisal actions of equal brutality. That said, there was never any desire to exterminate the Irish, there was a desire to bring Ireland to heel.
Unfortunately it was the 1600s with war that lasted over a decade and an insurgency that lasted even longer)
A demographic loss of between 15 and 20 per cent in Ireland but yeah its just bad publicity . Like the excuse used that he sacked Drogheda to try and end it quick but he then went and did the same in New Ross . Cmon man wise up . Funny how he is viewed in Englsnd though especially by left labour supporters . The infamous story of Blairs government putting up photos of Cromwell and then the Irish delegation going over for peace talks .
from what i understand cromwell was indeed quite robust in ireland.
Hansen didn’t step down to any fanfare. He was pushed to retire by the BBC for calling a black player “coloured”
the bucket is like 1600 BCB at least
