Where is all this white space coming from?

Working on a project for my web design class and can't figure out where all this white space is coming from. Everything needs to touch each other yet I think I have extra padding somewhere but I just can't seem to pinpoint it. Here is all my code. Also, I'd like to know how to get rid of the bullets in my <ul> on the left. I've tried list-style-type:none but that doesn't seem to do anything.

<h2>The Genius of Krofft</h2>

<h3>H.R. Pufnstuff</h3>

<p> <img src="hrpufnstuff.jpg" alt="hrpufnstuff" height="150" width="200">H.R. Pufnstuf centered on a shipwrecked boy named Jimmy. He and his friend, a talking flute named Freddy, take a ride on a mysterious boat, which promised adventures across the sea, to Living Island. The Mayor of Living Island was a friendly and helpful dragon named H.R. Pufnstuf. The boat was actually owned and controlled by a wicked witch named Wilhelmina W. Witchiepoo who rode on a broomstick-like vehicle called the Vroom Broom. She used the boat to lure Jimmy and Freddy to her castle on Living Island, where she was going to take Jimmy prisoner and steal Freddy. But Pufnstuf found out about her plot and was able to rescue Jimmy when he leaped out of the enchanted boat with Freddy and swam ashore.</p>

<h3>Lidsville</h3>


<p><img src="lidsville.jpg" alt="lidsville" height="150" width="200">
The show involved a teenage boy named Mark who fell into the hat of Merlo the Magician and arrived in Lidsville, a land of living hats. The hats on the show are depicted as having the same characteristics as the humans who would normally wear them.</p>

<h3>The Bugaloos</h3>


<p><img src="bugaloos.jpg" alt="bugaloos" height="150" width="200">The Bugaloos featured a musical group composed of four British-accented teenagers, who lived in fictional Tranquility Forest. They wore insect-themed outfits with antennae and wings which allowed them to fly. They were constantly beset by the evil machinations of Benita Bizarre, played by comedienne Martha Raye.</p>

<h3>Land of the Lost</h3>


<p><img src="landlost.jpg" alt="landlost" height="150" width="200">Land of the Lost details the adventures of the Marshall family (father Rick and his teenage children Will and Holly) who are trapped in an alternate universe inhabited by dinosaurs, a primate-type people called Pakuni, and aggressive humanoid/lizard creatures called Sleestak.</p>

<h3>Sigmund the Sea Monster</h3>


<p><img src="sigmund.jpg" alt="sigmund"  height="150" width="200">The show centered on two brothers, Johnny and Scott Stuart, who discover Sigmund, a friendly young sea monster who had been thrown out by his comically dysfunctional undersea family for refusing to frighten people. The boys hide Sigmund in their clubhouse.</p>

To fix the sidebar bullet list use:

.sidebar1 ul{
    list-style-type:none;
}

Browsers have built-in styles adding some spaces (paddings & margins) by default, which are different across browsers. You will need to do a reset css:

* {
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0;
}

About your bullets, you need to specify for both lists:

.sidebar1 ul, .sidebar2 ul {
  list-style-type: none;
}
/* OR */
aside ul {
  list-style-type: none;
}
