Description
It is KILLING me that I get featured while on a research break! I mean yes - head for the back catalog... but if you are a "what's new" kinda listener I gotta let you have something. So - for fun, here's a crossover episode from my other podcast - Prizefighters, Circusfreaks & Gangsters - which is mainly about the mayhem that was the 19th century in America and the hot nonsense that is most of the media that depicts the 19th Century in America.  Food, Fashion, Fighting and Fraud - and then as we go on... a whole bunch of other F's So of course, I'm posting a special episode that covers media that's about the 17th century (wrong time) and Japan (wrong place!) But if you are interested at all in the show Shogun, or why the 19th century is as riotous as it is - and what it's busting up - come in for a listen. ------- Shogun - The Mini Series - The Reboot How, you ask, can we justify leaping all the way back to the 17th Century in a 19th Century podcast?  Tune in and find out. But also - the perils & hilarity of reading the source material are revealed.Who'd face blind?Why do the Japanese interiors look so cool?Find out who has the best beard! They're aren't many fights - but there's plenty of all the other F's!Come for the standard stuff, but stay for the detours. And go enjoy the stylish as hell show.
