    113. The Burke and Wills Expedition
    Feb 13 2026

    Welcome back! It's season 7, episode 113 and to kick things off, we are taking an expedition from south to north across the vast (and HOT!) interior of Australia for the ill-fated Burke and Wills Expedition. Grab your horses and camels, your oak table and chairs, 50 gallons of rum (for the camels of course!) and don't forget your Chinese gong.

    112. How Language Made Us Human: The History of Language
    Dec 19 2025
    Put on your science pants Smoke Circle! KT is bringing us across the season six finish line with the brief history of language--from the first sounds of hominids to the formations of grammar to how culture shapes language around the world and how it is ever-evolving and changing year by year.We love a topic in which science and history shake hands and take us all on a hazy trip leaving us going "whoa dude...that was deep."We will be back again for season seven on February 6th, 2026! In the meantime, be sure to give us a follow on the socials and if you're really missing some new content, check out our Patreon, The Best Buds Club!

  • 111. How to Start a War with Michael Trapani

    111. How to Start a War with Michael Trapani
    Dec 5 2025

    It's our penultimate episode of season 6 and we've got an amazing guest to share it with! Author, podcaster and all around kick ass dude, Michael Trapani, joins the Smoke Circle to talk about his gripping book "How to Start a War: The Rise of Extremism, the Fall of Democracy and the Lead Up to World War II"

    Like many major world events, World War II has many smaller events that lead to the flash bang moments that get etched into our history books. Michael's book is all about those layers. Together we talk about the power of the common person, what happens when decisions are made out of fear and that, yes, Nazi High Command really was hopped up on drugs all the damn time.
