Good show but...
I’m giving you 5 stars because you have a good show, the 2nd Pacific Squadron episode brought me in and it was awesome. I however then listened to the Alamo episode and as a Red-Hat wearing Texan I must admit I was really looking forward to actually listening to the History of the event...after you were done bashing my people a bit for wanting a strong border, which is totally fine. Live your life your way and I’ll do the same. Let’s not, however, lose sight of the fact the all land on earth has been fought over at some point. Spain killed natives, Mexico and France fought each other and Spain all for the usual dubious and legitimate reasons that people have always come up with. The only seaming thing that is different about the United States is that since we seem to have come out of history ahead of Mexico, which is a diplomatic way of putting it, so Mexico gets a big pass on its historical blemishes, the same can be said of Spain or really pretty much any country on earth that isn’t at the forefront of world affairs. You can see people complaining the same way in places like Germany and Britain, there’s a lot of guilt being through around these days. I still love your show just try to remember that everyone from throughout history is just as good and bad as everyone else. No one is a saint and no one is the villain, we’re all just folk.
