Cuba has Special Needs | History Hyenas

Cuba has Special Needs | History Hyenas
The boys are BACK and diving headfirst into one of the wildest economic survival stories in modern history — Cuba’s “Special Period.” When the Soviet Union collapsed, Cuba lost its lifeline overnight, and what followed was a full-blown national struggle to survive. Chris and Yanni break down how the Cuban people adapted with insane ingenuity—bikes over cars, blackouts as a lifestyle, and a whole lot of creative hustling just to eat. It’s history, it’s chaos, it’s classic Hyenas. And just when you think it couldn’t get more unhinged… the legendary Tim Dillon calls in to stir the pot. It’s laughs, it’s facts, it’s a little bit of “what the hell is going on?” — exactly how you like it. #HistoryHyenas #Cuba #SpecialPeriod #TimDillon #ComedyPodcast #HistoryComedy #YannisPappas #ChrisDistefano Support our sponsors: http://lucy.co/hyenas For simple, online access to personalized and affordable care for Hair Loss, Weight Loss, and more, visit https://hims.com/HYENAS Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at https://SHOPIFY.COM/hyenas Upgrade your denim game with rag & bone!.

Simon Rex is for the Table | History Hyenas
Simon Rex pulls up to the History Hyenas studio and it’s pure chaos. The certified hottie with a body breaks down his wild early days at MTV, his unexpected music career, and how he made the jump into legit serious acting. Plus—plot twist—Simon flips the script and actually schools Chris and Yanni with a history fact the boys somehow never knew (yes, it gets WILD). It’s laughs, glow-ups, and a little education (don’t get used to it). #HistoryHyenas #SimonRex #ComedyPodcast #MTV #Acting #StandUpComedy #ChrisDistefano #YannisPappas #PodcastLife #Funny Support our sponsors: Use Discount Code “HYENAS” to claim your FREE JumpStart Trial Bag at https://RuffGreens.com Download the Ava app, and when you join using MY promo code HYENAS, you’ll get 20% off your first year—monthly or annual, your choice.
