Show Notes
Hi Listener, Sometimes it's very hard to make things silly, so this time we're not going to. This is a show Tombo wrote many moons ago after he spoke to some people who were genuinely in the history and did the history... and it wasn't always nice. CONTENT WARNING!!! This episode features actual history where not everyone makes it to the end in an actual serious way that isn't funny. It's really important though, because perhaps if we hear what people in the past had to do we can try and avoid having to do it again... Thanks to Zapsplat for the SFX as always. Thanks to Scott Buckley for his amazing music. Thanks for listening. Remember what others did folks... Then maybe we and our children won't have to do it.
