History Hyenas with Chris Distefano and Yannis Pappas

THEY JUST WOULDN’T STOP DANCING. 💃🕺

This week on the History Hyenas Podcast, the boys dive into one of the strangest events in human history: the mysterious Dancing Plague of 1518 in Strasbourg. Hundreds of people danced uncontrollably in the streets for days… some until they collapsed, and others until they DIED. Was it mass hysteria? Poisoned bread? Religious panic? Possession? Or just medieval Europe being fully WILD?

It’s history, hysteria, and absolute chaos — the way the Hyenas like it.

This week on History Hyenas, the boys take on one of the darkest and most debated chapters of the 20th century — the Armenian Genocide.

Chris and Yannis break down the historical context of the collapsing Ottoman Empire, the rise of nationalism, and how over a million Armenians were systematically deported and killed between 1915 and 1923. They dive into the political tensions, the global response at the time, and why this event is still at the center of controversy and denial today.

Expect the Hyenas’ signature mix of raw humor and real history as they try to make sense of a tragedy that still echoes across generations. It’s heavy, it’s important, and yes — they still manage to keep it CUTE.

History Hyenas is back with longtime friend of the show Tank Sinatra, and things get wild quick. The boys dive into the origin of classic Hyenas lingo, breaking down how some of the most iconic phrases were born and why they still hit. They also take a turn into the history of steroids—where it started, how it evolved, and how it became part of modern fitness culture. Tank keeps it real about what he’s currently taking, from TRT to peptides, giving an unfiltered look into his routine. And in true Hyenas fashion, chaos ensues when Tank rips his shirt off mid-episode, leaving Chris struggling to keep it together. It’s unhinged, hilarious, and full of vintage Hyenas energy.

The Hyenas are back and this week they’re joined by legendary comedian David Cross for an absolute banger. The boys dive into David’s experience growing up Jewish in the South, the misery of small talk, thoughts on the Mayor of New York, and yes…why Jason went to space (it makes sense in a Hyena kind of way). It’s smart, wild, and exactly the kind of unfiltered comedy you need.

The Hyenas are diving headfirst into one of the most mysterious relics in human history—the Shroud of Turin. Is it the real burial cloth of Jesus Christ, a medieval hoax, or something science still can’t explain? Chris and Yanni break down the history, the tests, the controversies, and the wild theories surrounding the Shroud, all while doing what they do best—getting loud, getting weird, and keeping it hilarious. From carbon dating debates to conspiracy talk, this episode walks the line between faith, history, and pure chaos.

Tune in for laughs, hot takes, and a deep dive that might just make you question everything.
