Take history and swear words is an American documentary about the history of our favorites swear words. Even better the show is hosted by Nicolas Cage. Netflix released the documentary series on January 5th 2021. The series is unscripted and explores swear words through interviews with experts as well as entertainers.
The entertainers talk more about the swear words parts in movies and music where the experts explain the real history of it, why is the slur and how its definition has changed over time.
I think it’s interesting to see how we are taking back slurs and to see how much of these words histories started or were made famous by music.
having both professional and non-professional views shown in the documentary gives us extra insight. Not just how the words change through history but who changed it, who made it famous and how it’s impacted different cultures.
I think its a fun way to learn history. It definitely gives me drug history vibes.
I give the show a 5 out of 5 because it’s not only entertaining but informational. I’ve always loved history but never loved history class… Because I have the attention span of an excited Chihuahua. This series is able to keep my attention and I’m even able to retain some of the information… History class was never able to do that.
I recommend this series to you anyone who likes history, anyone who likes swearing and anyone who likes the drunk histories series.
