Hey guys! I’m a new channel and i’m turning this into a series! Part 2 is up now and part 3 soon!! Subscribe pls🫶🫶
congrats on a shitload of views in a week omg, FWIW the algorithm was really pushin this on me as a Shane fan
When Shane calms down in his old age and makes his all history podcast, I'm gonna be all over it.
Part 2 is posted and Part 3 is on the way! subscribe! 🫶
Add a lil bit of commendatory so you can make money @@PodcastClipsUnlimited
Period...that's the content we're all waiting on
not sure if you know but he did a 6 hour long MSSP with Louis CK just going through all the US presidents. It's class.
Yeah am there
I was there when Napoleon died, believe me. Let me tell you something, Napoleon cried, he cried quite a bit. I wouldn’t have cried.
Funny quote😹😹 subscribe cause i’m about to post a part 2!!
Cry baby Napoleon, that’s what we called him…😂
He cried like a dog
Let me tell you my estimation of Napoleon as a man has plummeted.
I think i just read that my mind with trumps voice.
Shane would’ve made an awesome history teacher

Probably was an alternate path in his life. He would be talking shit to the students and talking about how he's kinda hungover but has a cool story about this thing that happened in 1830s
And he’s the football coach too
I wish Shane Gillis was my history teacher
Same🤣 I’m about to post a part 2 today so subscribe!
I'm glad he wasn't, this was painful to listen to

As a 28 year old, history seems so interesting to me now. I literally feel like my father when I talk about who founded the central banks and how certain businessmen influenced wars 😂
Oi Vey shut it down
Cause you're almost 30, soon it'll be Fox News😂
Sounds quite nefarious. Who could be behind this?
Shane Gillis in an alternate life was a well loved history teacher
He should honestly start a history podcast, it would be so entertaining to tune in to shane for an hour a month to talk about history. I suspect it may be more work than he wants to commit to tho lol 😂
That’s why i’m doing the work for u. part 2 is up now subscribe 🫶
Would be so funny him having different historians on a podcast just teaching us and making us laugh
drunk history is a show with comedians explaining history. Shane gillis would have been the best host of it ever
I wanna see him on Carlins Addendum podcast but I also don’t think that would ever happen
Rogan sounds like a stoned teen taking to his history teacher
Joe Rogan struggling to comprehend the most basic concepts is a multi-hundred million dollar industry
I used to think the whole marching straight into gunfire thing was stupid until i learned why they did it that way. First off, those musket guns were incredibly inaccurate, so the only way to know you're gonna hit a target was to shoot 50 guns at the same time. Secondly, war is incredibly chaotic, and back then, they didn't have any radio's or loud speakers or anything. Just yelling and a horn. So the only way to be able to control your men was to have them in tight formations, and you didn't want them moving faster than you were able to control where they were going. Got to remember Generals did not give a shit how many men died it was only about winning the battle. Also, both sides back then agreed to fight like "gentlemen," so both sides fought exactly the same
Sick facts dude but you ruined the joke 🤣 I actually learned something new today tho thank u bro🤝
@PodcastClipsUnlimited It's hard to imagine being a general at the back of a field trying to control 100,000 men with just runners on horseback. The way they did it is really the only way to do it. Once the other side turned and ran, that's the only time they would break formation. But sometimes, they would use that as an advantage. Imagine side A would turn and run, side B breaks formation, and chases. Then, when side A would get over hill or to treeline side A would already have 20,000 men ready in formation. When side B got in range side A would open up. Because side A broke formation to chase, it was damn near impossible for them to get back in formation with all the chaos. That would make them retreat. Side B wins battle. History is awesome
People overestimate casualties caused by infantry engagements, probably due to movies. Most casualties were caused by Calvary, second only to artillery. Staying tightly packed prevents angry dudes on massive beasts from running you down.
They also did it mainly due to the slow reload speeds of those muskets. They would get low and or rotate back so the loaded guns could get in the front and fire. When done correctly you could get near nonstop volleyfires of solid lead
Yet those armies always got fucked from guerrillas, go figure
Joe does not understand military evolution. But but but the Mongols.
Joe can come across like a doofus sometimes talking about stuff he doesn’t know much about😹 still love him tho
Joe asking questions semi rhetorical, Shane being like oh I know this lol.

he should totally have a history podcast with comedic presentations
I’m gonna post more compilations like this so subscribe 🫶

Not only did the British wear bright red they had some goof in the back beating the shit out of a snare drum 😂

Love history. Love Shane.
I grew up with history teachers as parents so history to me is just the best story time. You get to here the stories of crazy journeys, wars, interesting crazy people….and then it’s ALL REAL. Like me learning about the mongol empire when I was a kid was so fun cause my mom equated it to me as imagine if we had aliens pull up tomorrow and run rough shot for lifetimes.
That’s hilarious 🤣
Men stood in lines to prevent calvary charges which could decimate a line and cause a rout. A line fill of guns with spears attached acted similarly to phalanxes of older warfare. Additionally it was to account for the lack of accuracy, creating a wall of shrapnel and rotating the front line with men who had loaded guns. Standing behind a tree and having 1 shot per minute would be easily discharged by calvary.
Yep, also without radio or anything it’s a lot harder to issue commands to your hundreds of soldiers. Keeping them together was really the only way to keep an actual strategy together
“If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that.” - Abe Lincoln
Gonna be a history teacher now
🤣🤣
Shane couldn't do what he does if he didn't know history. I love this guy, not afraid to speak the truth, and have fun doing it
Thank goodness for my old teacher Mr. McDonald for sparking a real interest in history and politics. Now I can really enjoy and appreciate Shane's stories with comedic effect.
Shane needs to start a history podcast for fuk sake

Shane going off about historical events as a narrator would sell
Hearing Joe Rogan talking about 18th-19th century military strategy and not understanding the reasoning behind it makes me mant to rip my ears off. He's a great guy but here he has no idea what he's talking about.
Ya I mean this is pre rifled barrels the tech at the time dictated the strategy.. these people were not stupid.
Love this!!!
On a traditional cannon ship they wouldn’t bolt the cannons to the floor, instead they would be on wheels (on tracks) and the recoil would push it back in so that you could reload it
"I dont know why it's funny."
Some shit is so dark you gotta laugh so you dont cry

Shane should do a history podcast
They have a bunch of History eps on their podcast, especially the Old Testament
We need Shane to start making APUSH videos
*another comment about Shane being a history teacher*
Shane: It was just about dudes walking to shoot each other
1:08 Joe: 😮💨😫😮💨* Moans*
I like that Shane presents like a small town bully but is actually really really clever.
The musket firing line evolved from the pike wall which was necessary in the old European wars when you had a couple hundred armored horses charging at you.
In the revolutionary war, the redcoats goal was to intimidate the continental army with their sheer size and might ie marching in a giant unstoppable column.
Dam I would love to have some beers with this man and have a history lesson
Fr
They might teach you how to spell while your at it.
2:21 if I'm in war I want Shane to be with ne😂😂

Actually, World War I trench battles started during the Civil War at the battle of cold Harbor where the confederates were in trenched. This was after Gettysburg over 18,000 Union soldiers were killed to only 1200 confederates the confederates on the trenches.
I was trying for like 5 minutes to remember that guy's name that killed Franz Ferdinand without Googling it. Finally came to me. Gavrilo Princep.
"so in conclusion class, the civil war was fuckin NUTS!..." -mr gillis
🤣🤣
Line battles were about the lack of accuracy with unrifled muskets. The logic was that a single musket was probably gonna miss at 100 meters in the arms of a conscript. So, how about just have 100 muskets in a line? Surely, some of them would hit. And once you're close enough, you could charge en masse to route your enemy.
But once firearms became more accurate, it suddenly seemed way less reasonable to stand in a line and wait for your turn to shoot, because you'd all be dead before you got close enough to charge.
Cool, good to know. Thanks!
Antarctic seas spider actually looks kinda tasty. You could cut it up and serve it as crab legs and people probably wouldn’t tell the difference
Take it easy Funny boy
Dudes be into history. This is a masculine stereotype I fully identify with
Sinuous, the word is sinuous
This may be weird to say, but I think Shane would've made a legitimately solid officer in the army, if he stuck it out at West Point. Hell, I wouldn't mind if he was in charge of some of our largest units right now.
Cannons are never bolted to the floor.
Almost right on pretty much everything. Strange that he recognises that things are interlinked, but then thinks the First World War was based on one assassination. But that was the trigger point. Europe, the empires and friends, had been blooding the nose of each other for decades before this.
They had wanted another big war to show dominance and knock the opponent down a peg.
He's correct about most of what he said about Comanche.... except for being small people. My grandfather was full blooded Comanche.... he was 6'5". I'm only ¼ Comanche and I'm 6'1". Most of that side of my family are 6 feet, or taller.
Maybe you’re just lucky😳
or hes full of s
My Algonquin great-grandmother was 6'4" lol. I'm 6'4".
There’s zero chance your grandfather was 100% Comanche. That’s not how genetics work.
Historically the Comanche were known for being shorter. Quanah Parker was known for being a head taller then most of his tribe and he was around 6’
Am just saying we all know about firing in lines/ranks to increase rate of fire/psychological warfare. Officers wanting ranks to reform before firing as well. Majority of civil war generals were Napoleon fans. Rifleing being invented is why the early days of the civil war were so deadly. The accuracy increase seperated us from british warfare to trench warefare.
BTW thanks for the pin. I'm saying Joe is silly and Shane's ability to site individual battles, generals and technological points of wars is good. ❤️ have a good one my DAWG
6:15 Manchester mentioned RAHHHHHH🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🐝🐝🐝
"Is it Bill Maher?"
"It's someone good."

I’m not typing it all out but if you research it was the dominate tactic because it worked

The walking part I never understood my great grandfather walk all the way from my community too Canmore Alberta to register to join the army in WW2
shoutout your great grandpa
Mongolian lancers had bright, vibrant armor. Head to hoof.
They must have looked sick
Saying it's a silly way to fight is not accurate. It was an organized barrage of gun fire. Movies do it a disservice, but with the addition of the cannon and decentralized leadership on the battlefield, the French and the British dominated battlefield tactics in the 17-18 hundreds.
They fought like that to specfically to counter the cavalry. Until machine guns in the civil war, cavalry dominted the battle ground
So the real reason soldiers stood in rank was due to the technology. The guns were smooth bore, they weren’t rifles so as soon as the ball bullet left the barrel it could veer off in any direction. They were very inaccurate. Since they didn’t have individual accuracy they compensated with volume of fire. Soldiers massed firing in rank at another line of soldiers are a lot more likely to hit anything. It was also influenced by the geography, Europe didn’t have a lot of forests it was mainly empty fields so armies didn’t have any type of cover anyways. It was also an honor thing to stand and fight your enemy on the field. Europeans started changing when they came to the new world. North America had thick forests and no fields and hostile natives would use hit and run tactics, ambushes, the works and the early colonists weren’t soldiers. They had guns but they mainly were not the professional soldiers of the time. They would drill and train their militias adopting native tactics, allying with natives as guides, using snow shoes to move silently through the forest in winter, and when the revolutionary war happened a lot of the colonists would adopt these tactics against the British.

Native Americans were brutal. It wasn’t just the Comanche. Look at the Natchez
2:25 it's was an hot spot on the field
How did they survive everyone fought land wars like that back then. It’s based off the Roman way to fight a war lining guys up with shields spears and swords
FR🤣
sumerians, Egyptians, Greek hoplites, then the Romans
Sharp
It would have been the most EPIC WAR STRATEGY if the British walked slowly, directly towards the enemy (like they did) but all doing the John Cleese Silly Walk!! 😅
🤣🤣
SOME OF THE WOOD THEY USED ON THAT BOAT WERE GIIGER THAN THE CANNONS. THE GLAGS ON THOSE BOATS ARE BIGGER THAN SOME HOUSES
Everyone forgets about Korea lol
Firing lines were most optimal style of warfare that’s why it worked… sounds stupid but more bullets down range quicker usually means winning
Shane got it wrong when he said the Vietnamese learned guerilla warfare from the US, Ho chip Minh took it from other southeast Asian countries, specifically the Indonesian, and just outplayed the US.
Stay cool walk forward aim fire
🔫🔫
Because it worked
I hate how Joe Rogan doesn’t know history, and there are so many good jokes that Matt would’ve fucking fed off of
The war wasn’t about slavery or economics, it was about whether states could secede from the union.
Thanks Mrs. Haley. Now tell us WHY they wanted to secede in the first place .
I mean... you're joking right?
@@Slim_Ch4rles There's no there there, champ. They didn't secede in response to slaves being freed, because no slaves were freed prior to the secession.
@@billbadson7598 Oh, you must be special needs. My apologies, have a nice weekend
Just saying..
Cannons weren't bolted down. They used gravity as recoil and would jump back like 4 feet every shot. Its why they had wheels.... They wernt mounted.
9:10 my tribe was mentioned 🦅🦅🦅🦅
yall sound badass 🤣🤘
War is just a sport for rich people especially then.. people would legit go watch the war for a date family would have picnics and watch the war that’s why they wear red and blue so you know what who to kill it’s wild
Didn’t the British still stand in lines during the Zulu war during the early 1900s
Those happened in the very late 19th century. They usually fought from a defensive position, all men close together with barricades in front of them because they were outnumbered 15-1 but had rifles, artillery, and Gatling guns.
I just say that “people tryna act” comment is a little misleading, over 10 million people aged 8-25 were taught in the south it was the taxes that forced us to rely on slavery, which is a debate in and of itself
Joe should get Thomas Sowell....
Cannons weren't fixed to the floor of ships
Correct, basic newton means throwing a 10kg ball forwards doesn’t throw a 2000kg cannon backwards much
@@alexv7647 yes and no. So force equals mass x Acceleration and for every force there's a equal and opposite reaction. So if you were right there'd be 0 recoil in any gun cause a bullet is incredibly light and especially in contrast to the weight of a gun. But if you don't know how to mitigate the recoil especially on high calibur rounds, you can wind up being liveleak material.
@@TheBurningcage27yeah I missed the word “much” on the end, those big guns were on wheels for the recoil
It’s actually comical to think about the British looking down on colonists for using camouflage and surprise attacks as “ungentlemanly”. By god have some manners and look me in the eyes while we shoot cannons at each other.
so british🤣
Well if your fighting people with bows and arrows then marching in a line with a target on your chest aint that far fedged
Im from sweden so the caroleans are so fasanating to me, they would walk through enemy fire to get extra close to their enemys and then let their first volley go. I think they had a motto that went something like "Dont shoot until you see the whites in your enemys eyes!"
I have heard that! 🤯
They wore res uniforms so they could see their own people while in the smoke.
I can't stand that they don't also show us what Joe and Shane are viewing on Joe's TV or computer or w/e it is in their little studio
So they walked in groups like that because of Calvary charges
People that think America won outright against England are ignorant. The only reason the colonies won is because the British empire were stretched thin around the world and the colonies had an opportunity to make a move.
Civil war didn’t start until the south seceded. Obviously the south wanted to keep the slaves but America was a country for approx 80 years. They fought in congress about slaves for years, woulda kept going that way too.

Boats ment order so field took order also
"Bill Maher? It might be Bill Maher. It's someone good..." Welp probably not Bill Maher then lmao
Korean War happened between WW2 and Vietnam. Not a lot of chilling.
