If you know,

know, if you listen to the podcast I do with my buddy Destin called No Dumb

Questions, you know that there is, I think Swedish rock band that I really like called

Sabaton and they sing songs about people who do heroic things and warfare

probably they've been pen to paper all week here frantically writing their next

album and there's one song in particular that I think there's all week here frantically writing their next album.

And there's one song in particular that I think they're super well known for

and that I absolutely love and it's about the winged to SARS,

this elite Polish unit, the wore all the silver armor armor and had these super long single use

spears and they rode into battle on horses these unbreakable charge they had some

kind of like little wheel lock pistol or something they took with them as well.

They were graded at distance, graded at hand-to-hand combat, and when Vienna was under siege by the

Ottomans, all hope seemed lost.

The Polish winged Hussars arrived and turned the tide and saved the day and Europe was saved and Austria was saved and Vienna was saved and the Ottomans were pushed back and it's an amazing song.

I think I'll see if Jeff can link it down in the show notes. So if you haven't heard it, it's just

weirdly, oddly, strangely enthralling even if it's not your musical style at all but there is something

about that imagery that I mean you're all conjuring in your head right now from a movie or from something

where the cavalry shows up, where the thing that everybody's been

waiting for arrives when Gandolf was at the top of the hill and he's going to charge down

against all the orks and monster things and save the day for the people who were holed up in the castle

which I think was kind of meant to be an allusion to that wing to sar kind of moment.

But you can draw on a hundred different images that you've seen in film of the cavalry showing up, the heroes showing up, and what happens whenever that occurs?
