On this episode of Wiki U we learn about the FIRST EVER road trip which was driven in 1888 as a publicity stunt by Bertha Benz who wanted to generate attention for the new family business.

This is the story of the most brutal race in the history of the Olympics. It was a death march on dusty country roads under the sweltering summer sun where the competitors fend off packs of wild dogs. Looking to do "research" on dehydration, the organizer started the race during the hottest part of the day, provided zero aid stations, and the winner only made it across the finish line after his trainers jump started his body with strychnine and brandy. On this episode of Wiki U we'll dive into the crazy spectacle of the 1904 Olympic Marathon.

This week Kyle and Jheisson learn about the gruesome Cleveland Torso murders of the 1930's, the extensive history of portable toilets, bidets, and answer the question: Why does cologne say "Toilette" on it? Seriously though why would you sell something that is meant to smell good and write toilette on the container?
