Summary

Hello and welcome history friends, patrons all, to the state of the podcast address address the 8th of November 2018.

I hope you're all doing well and I hope you're prepared for what's to come over the next few

months.

Before we jump into the brave craziness that is the Versailles Anniversary Project, I thought

0:35.8

1:37.2

joke or something. But in any case, the person who put this review down, obviously didn't
