Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! In honor of the 3rd greenest day of the year, we will be taking a look at the history of hooliganism. Beginning in Surrey, England in the 18th century, the episode concludes with a peek at some of the most lovable Hooligans in sports: The Philadelphia Hooligans Men’s Roller Derby team. Here in you will find answers to questions I’m sure have been nagging you for years, such as “Where did the word ‘derby’ originate, and what is its actual definition in sports?”, and “Why has alcohol been banned at all Scottish Football events for the past 35 years?”. Ever wonder what the melody of “We’re from Philly, no one likes us we don’t care” is from? Join me, Soulless, to learn that some questions (hint it’s the last one) are better left unanswered... It’s an entertaining ride full of twists and fun facts. But be warned: There’s Hooligan’s afoot!
