But it also has a very unique geography to it. Not only because it was literally a vessel travelling half-way across the world, but also in where it came from, who built it, who its passengers were, and even in how the aftermath was handled.

In the world of sport, the vast majority of teams are hyperlocal affairs within maybe a regional league. Even if they're national, they don't often go much farther than that. Which is why the story behind Wrexham AFC is so fascinating. After being purchased by superstars Ryan Reynold and Rob McElhenney, what would ordinarily be a small soccer team in a small city, has become a global phenomenon. Join Geoff and Hunter as they go through the wild geography that is Wrexham AFC, a formerly 5th, now 4th tier Welsh team that is attracting a lot of attention.

Originating in China and steeped in mythology and legend, the brewed beverage has evolved and taken hundreds of different forms. But while tea is an incredibly popular beverage today, it didn't really start out that way. In this episode, Hunter and Geoff explore how tea originated in China, became commercialized during the colonialization period, and eventually was industrialized and globalized with modern technologies.

In this cut-for-time content, Hunter and Geoff cover Bricklink, Lego's very own Ebay-type website where people compete for designs and can possibly have theirs selected by Lego for production. It also ties in nicely with Korean pop sensation BTS. If you can't imagine how Lego and Kpop boy band BTS could ever link up then this is episode should be pretty interesting!

But today, the wind has been put to task on a much bigger, some say global, problem: powering all the things we love within our lives.

And while there are multiple reasons for that, in this episode, Hunter and Geoff explore a little bit about the history of how the language has evolved, how it absorbs other languages words and adapts, and how, if you're American, you might speak differently from other Americans.
