The Dollop is absolutely one of our all-time favorite podcasts around. The riffing and the unbelievable tales from the hidden archives of American history that are dug up make for pure comedy gold.

Now, Dave and Gareth have just come out with a book to accompany the podcast that include full page illustrations, which should even further bring to life all those stories that are so absurd that wrapping your head around them is almost absurd in of itself.

So, with that said, please get The United States of Absurdity: Untold Stories from American History for you, a loved one, or even a not-so loved one here.

For over 200 episodes now, Dave Anthony, Gareth Reynolds, and a plethora of comedy’s best and brightest have gone through the weirdest, most overlooked chapters of history on the hit podcast The Dollop.

Many of the stories that they riff over seem so incredulous that you might want some corresponding images, which might leave those with a weak mind’s eye high and dry.

Luckily, The United States of Absurdity: Untold Stories from American History by Anthony and Reynolds will fill that very need going over their signature dives into bizarre historical nooks and crannies with accompanying illustration as well as trivia and timelines.

The book doesn’t come out until May 9th, 2017, but you can (and should) pre-order it now on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, iBooks, Google Books, and Indie Bound.
