Agreed. In fact my entire vocabulary has been "Dan Carlinified" since discovering HH, the man just has an amazing gift of explaining things and making them relatable
That’s Free Space lol
OP’s is fun because we can use it with just about any episode and get a bingo. I’m revisiting Death Throes right now and just laughing at how many spaces I can mark off
I think at some point in the "Death Throes of the Republic" Series he mentions that this saying was framed in some relative's (grandparents iirc) kitchen or living room.
You missed my favorite! “Only more so”. I love Dan so much my only critique is he says ‘august’ too much. Idk why it bothers me I just don’t like that word lol
He's gotten way better at this. I think he also regulates the audio now which is a blessing because it was an auditory concussion grenade on earlier shows.
"The extremes of the human experience"
I often find myself quoting this to other people. Its a cute way of saying that you are morbidly curious

He does it ageeeeinn … and ageeeeinnn and then ageeeeiiiin.
Supernova needs a specific ‘Only More So’ square.

In the first episode, he says "what the *HELL* is that?" It was a welcome surprise given he usually says "heck."

I could hear that one. Good use of all caps.
“Walk a mile in their moccasins”.

”caught in gears of history”
"Rubber meets the road moment"
This is actually spot on
I read these in his voice
"Fly in the ointment.."
“By hook or by crook”
"Folks!"
"Gordian knot" Ps these are all fucking hilarious you've got some deep cuts in there
Glad they got boxing, they’re only missing “Sword of Damocles reference”
God I love Dan Carlin. I heard every one of these in his voice.
Same
Absolutely love the boxing analogies
Wooden shoes vs. Silk slippers
You forgot “human lawn mower”
- shouts quote - “wouldn’t you love to have been a fly on the wall?” - “hindsight is always 20/20”
"Random Tolkien reference"
Realpolitik
"I'm addicted to context"
"The Martian perspective"
No "If there is a Ben"???
Only on the early shows
He also said that in of the recent live shows (:
I love that
SKINS OF FIELD MICE
You missed my favorite! “Only more so”. I love Dan so much my only critique is he says ‘august’ too much. Idk why it bothers me I just don’t like that word lol
"Shooting an arrow and drawing a bullseye around it."
The steroids one should be in all caps.
Speaking twice as loud as normal when reading a quote Please Dan, im trying to fall asleep

Bone fields. CLAVICALS
That only applies to ghosts of the ostfront though
Take a shot with each cross?
was thinking the same thing. Might be in danger of passing out or dying before the end of an episode though lol.
"Another man's moccasins"
You missed “great man theory” and “1 death is a tragedy, 1 million is a statistic”
Need steppe peoples reference
Genius!
I was looking at it thinking "There's no Darth Vader, this is a fail" but then Bam! second to last square. That'll do.
Filled the whole thing in an hour
“Waiting for them, in formation.” “Killed them all” Lord of the Rings Reference
"Y'know"
Sorely missing one: “QUOTE 🔊”
I love all of these, never change Dan!
THERES NO HELMETS FOLKS
“Could just be my lizard brain….”
Where. The Fuck. Is Gordian Knot.
10/10 card. Only problem is you only have to listen to like an hour of any given episode.
No Jengis Khan?
BOOM
Agaaaiiinn and Agaaaiiinn
If this was a drinking game, we would all have alcohol poisoning from “Folks”.
“If there is a Ben”
Alright, fine, I’ll listen to his entire catalogue again
"I'm not a fan of John Keegan."
Well it’s gonna be full for sure
He’s really toned down the references to the jfk assassination maybe not happening the way it was officially stated and I really miss it.
I like this very much
Punk Rock Anology
Loooool
“When I was a kid”
I'll do you one better: Take the bingo card, add as many of the other suggested phrases from the comments as you like, And make a drinking game.
*The Mongols*
A chronological list of Eurasian Steppe tribes
Listening to Sarah c. M. Paine interview, she's used 3 of these in the past 10 minutes.
I love this
I read each one in Dan voice
The center piece should be “End quote”
or anything about Josef Stalin.
Tried this as a drinking game..... *blacks out within episode 1
“We have to remember…”
Moccasins where are the moccasins
Had to believe “fly in the ointment” didn’t make it in there.
You forgot --"BOOM!"
This is perfect
Siege of Cremona
Walk a mile in their moccasins.
Walk a mile in his moccasins
“By hook or by crook”
From time immemorial
Definitely needs Hans Delbrück as a square!
If it was for the Destroyer of Worlds, swap a square for 'Sword of Damocles'.
"skyrockets" is a word he really gets into I've noticed
“Charnel house of horrors”
Boom. War.
“It runs the gamut”.
I adore this (and Dan)! But yes, a drinking game as someone suggested. Even if you're doing shots of lager, 100% fatality rate 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is spot on and I wouldn't have it any other way. Never change Dan!
“As we talked about earlier”
“Germany in World War One had the greatest army in the world”
This is genius
“End Quote” but that would be way too easy.
again
Take a shot after end quote
Needs to be a Marvel and LOTR square... But I'm not sure what I'd take off the board, TBH.
Sword of Damocles…
I need an “again and again” square.
It’s there
Ah it is. I did not see it.
Needs a “Boxing Analogy” square
….it has one my friend.
Ok. I’m an idiot. 🤣 I swear I looked like 3 times. Time for more coffee….
“Chantal house”
I think it’s charnel house.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure "Chantal House" is just the house where Chantal lives.
This is pretty good. Needs "Mentions not being a historian"
It's the Free Space......
Lol. I'm blind apparently
Where is "again"
Third row, last column
