Eddie Zimmerman returns for a chat about the iconic American. A man whose sheer tenacity kept the fledgling USA in the war despite repeated military setbacks in the early stages of the war. We discuss the myths and controversies as well as the man's character, and why he may have been fundamental to helping America define itself.

A less-than-Presidential, two hour broadcast, in which Zack has multiple aneurysms, Luke self proclaims to be a 'Scholar in Residence', and then refers to military history as 'Guns and balls and pointy things'.
We also do some serious historianing at some point in the broadcast.
This is a new style of content, in which we look at the state of Napoleonic history, new book releases, new historical dramas that are being released, and conferences you need to attend.

Sam Jolley, Charlotte White, Josh Provan and Kit Chapman (University of Falmouth) join me to dissect the movie as a piece of film making. We largely park the historical inaccuracies to explore the real reasons why this film has proven such a disappointment with fans of the period.
