  • Introducing SNAFU with Ed Helms - history’s greatest screw-ups
    Hi FIASCO fans! We’re excited to share a special episode from one of our favorite history podcasts: SNAFU with Ed Helms. The show tackles history’s greatest screw-ups, and on the newest season, Ed has roped in some of a cavalcade of smart, hilarious guests to help unpack what these blunders, fiascos and faceplants say about who we are (spoiler: we’re basically just toddlers with nukes). Think of it as part history lesson, part hangout pod, and part group therapy for humanity. On this episode, we’ve got Shackleton’s Expedition and Nick Kroll — who is not so great in a crisis, especially a family fishing trip. So naturally, Ed wanted to bring Nick back to the sea for the harrowing story of Ernie Shackleton's failed expedition to Antarctica, complete with dogloos, stowaway cats, and a chance to celebrate the explorers who push humanity forward. You can also go back and listen to SNAFU’s previous three season, which tackle more in-depth stories like :S1: Able Archer 83, the NATO war game that almost started an actual nuclear war, and S2: MEDBURG, the 1971 burglary of an FBI office in Media, Pennsylvania. There’s something for every kind of listener. You can subscribe and listen to SNAFU with Ed Helms on the iHeart Radio app or wherever you get your podcasts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

About Fiasco

Host Leon Neyfakh transports listeners into the day-to-day reality of our country's most pivotal historical events, bringing to life the forgotten twists and turns of the past while shedding light on the present. Benghazi unpacks the 2012 attack in Libya that left four Americans dead, including Ambassador Chris Stevens—and the ensuing political storm, which raised questions about America’s role in the world, established a playbook to weaponize attention in the social media age, and ultimately changed the course of U.S. history. Iran-Contra exposes a secret war, a secret deal, and a scandal that threatened to destroy Ronald Reagan’s presidency—until it didn’t. Bush v. Gore recounts what happened during the contested 2000 election between Al Gore and George W. Bush, and the extraordinary legal battle that unfolded in Florida.
