Introduction

Chaos erupts in the hall as men try to process what is happening. Unlucky knights standing next to Robert when his brothers' opinion is expressed are screaming for vengeance and blood.

The hall exploded into chaos. The night sitting outside the firing line just stared in shock, trying to process what was happening. Men stuck closer in, tried to dive out of the way. The unlucky knights, the men standing right next to Robert when his brothers' opinion came raining down. While they were screaming for vengeance, they wanted blood. And it's hard to blame them. They were, after all. It drenched. Welcome to the British History Podcast. My name is Jamie, and this is episode 437. Everyone's Pissed. This show is ad-free due to member support.

If you think back to very recent history, that strange hollow hell that we call the year 2020, there was a news cycle that revolved around milkshakes.

politicians and cops getting milkshakes thrown at them, mostly by young people. In response, there were authorities unironically demanding that these kids be charged with assault with a deadly weapon, and other people talking about terrorism. Why? It wasn't because their lives were in danger. These were milkshakes.
