Each week, Cris King (@criskingvo) and Jake Rhodes (@regrettablyjake) take a trip through time to investigate and fix some of history's most notorious goof ups. Equipped with historical texts from the sacred timeline (@wikipedia), their queer intuition, and 20/20 hindsight, these two answer the question - Could history have been better if they'd just asked our opinion?
Cris and Jake are back this week, taking a look at one of the BIGGEST stock market flops of all time! We're traveling to Houston Texas to see what everyone is making a (natural) gas about! Join us as we learn a bit about the market, and maybe, a bit about ourselves too.
