really good pair of history lectures made by hbo

EDIT as per request: History lectures by Wuhl who is primarily known for being a comedian, so it's actually entertaining. The lectures are on the concept that history as we remember it is largely skewed by popular misconceptions that come from old age media sources first line is "I am going to assume the position that history is pop culture." E.g. taken more from novels by Irving and Longfellow more than it is actual events. Can be summed up by "When the legend becomes fact, print the legend." Also has parts on the idea that Americans constantly elect or care about their stars "star fucking is as american as apple pie" and other things that have been in American history that have unusual origins.
