In Season 2, Episode 8, Rizz and Tim revisit one of the strangest and most overlooked moments in American military history — an invasion where the people being attacked didn’t even know they were at war.During the Spanish-American War, the U.S. Navy arrived at the island of Guam ready for battle, only to discover that the Spanish officials stationed there were completely unaware the war had begun. What followed was a surreal, bloodless takeover marked by misunderstandings, apologies, and a translator who went from local resident to governor almost overnight. This episode unpacks how isolation, poor communication, and imperial ambition collided to produce one of history’s most absurd acts of war — and how a tiny island found itself reshaped by a conflict it never saw coming.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
