The Napoleonic Wars, Redux

No, it's not a yet another "Directors Cut" by Ridley Scott, it's something much less exciting... 

Having recently discovered that the Napoleonic Wars are on the A-Level syllabus this year I decided it was time to do my bit to help out the youth of today, and dive back into the Madaxeman Podcast archives to dig out the early (2020 Lockdown-era) episodes in which we ran the often incoherent feature "Teaching Timmy About Napoleon".

I've now edited all of those segments from 7-8 different podcasts into a single "bonus repeat" podcast, which runs to about 3 hours in length and is spread over 2 separate pods, both of which are now available via my Podbean channel.


The first episode covers from the start of Napoleon's adventures to the end of Sean Bean's Iberian deployment of his very singular profanity.


The second episode then picks things up just before the invasion of Russia, and ends with the epic battle around the Airfix Waterloo Farmhouse.


Both episodes can be streamed from here. 


The Airfix Farmhouse and Waterloo Battle Set can both still be picked up on eBay - :
