    PINT-SIZED HISTORY ARE GOING (BACK) TO KOREA. This time though we're going north of the border, unlike the US Army in 1951. Have you ever wondered what Kim Jong-Il was actually like? Have you ever thought that the 'little rocket man' Kim Jong Un felt like a plastic bag drifting through the wind? No? NEITHER HAVE WE. But Joe's decided that we're going for a deeper dive on the Kims. The supreme leaders who honestly just get weirder and weirder as they come and go. We're talking all things Kim. The crazy dictator dynasty who bent an entire nation to their knees for the last 75 odd years and let me tell you they are really odd. You'll find out how their ruthlessness and commitment to rule, backed up by an enormous propaganda machine, inflicted untold hardships and suffering on the population of North Korea.
