- History
Hey everyone! For episode 21, I'm joined by Dr. Corinne Gressang (@corinnegressang on Twitter), assistant professor of history at Erskine College and we're covering the French Revolution. We cover why the conditions in France were ripe for a revolution, how Louis XVI didn't really have the tools to be king, as well as the multiple iterations of the revolutionary government: Estates General, National Assembly, Legislative Assembly, and the Committee for Public Safety. We also talk about the luminaries of the revolution: Marat, Brissot, and Robespierre, among others. Enjoy the episode!
YDKH's theme music is by the musician Smith the Mister called "Beach Buggy."
