Thank you so much for joining us on the most snuff-sniffing, boot-clicking, bayonet-swerving campy gloriousness of films we’ve ever done

@robinmcghee.bsky.social and @carolinasaludes.bsky.social listen in as @so3brocktree.bsky.social told us about

- Why should we care today about Waterloo?
- Is Napoleon the most impressive military leader in history?
- Was the Duke of Wellington a huge d*ck?

This and so so so much more

Hard agree, all the elements come together and create a work of art like he hasn’t imagined for a long time.
