History of Armenia 44: Victor Maghakian
Added 2025-08-27 08:29:18 +0000 UTC
For this month's History of Armenia, Joe and Ani discuss the history of the most decorated Armenian-American military veteran in US history: a midwest Armenian-American named Victor Maghakian who was, without exaggeration, an absolute beast during the Pacific campaign of World War II.
Livestream tickets for our October 4 show in Glasgow are still available!

Joe! I will help you write bits on the naval fighting at Guadalcanal and how shitty it was for the marine pilots (literally and figuratively).

Does a SoulCycle class count as bicycle infrastructure? Because zero meters is shorter than five meters, you know.

What a great story soul love it. I had no idea you were 100% disabled Joe. I know you always mention TBI but I didn't know it hit that bad.

This guy and Joe's old friend who liked to drink and drive shaking hands while trying to shake hands with danger, but can't because they're drunk.

Always wondered how movies expected us to believe people can be thrown tens of feet by an explosion and just get up, but I guess they were all a little Armenian

random thought: if somebody does fan art of maghakian, they should draw him wielding three screwdrivers like zoro from one piece wields swords. two in his hands, one held with his teeth. nothing else would do the man justice
