S1E9 - Listen in for a quick and dirty summary of the War of 1812. Think it’s boring? Think again! Trent and Marissa discuss British impressment, Crybaby William Hull, why cannons are scary, and Miley Cyrus’s connection to the National Anthem. There’s also an unusual amount of singing on this episode. You’re welcome?
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: In this episode, we reference “The 1812 Overture” by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and incorrectly attribute it to the War of 1812. It was inspired by the defense of Russia’s capital against the French in that year and was written over sixty years after the fact. There is no relation to the War of 1812 in the United States. We are incredibly sorry for any inconvenience this mistake has caused you and your loved ones.
