Get Shocked A podcast

Get Shocked is a history podcast hosted by two self-described silly nerds who combine storytelling, humor, and electric shocks to explore remarkable events and experiences from the past. The show brings listeners “badass stories from history,” using surprising facts and playful presentation to range from life-shattering horrors to awe-inspiring human ingenuity. Its creators believe that understanding where people come from can help make sense of the present, and that learning about history can foster empathy.

Get Shocked offers episodes for audiences interested in entertaining, unconventional approaches to historical topics. The team is also raising funds to film and edit the podcast’s second season, with the goal of making the show visual and letting viewers see the hosts’ reactions to the shocks. The website features a pitch video, recognizes donors supporting the new season, and invites visitors to make a pledge.
