They got... closer than you might think. Get the whole episode on Patreon here! https://www.patreon.com/posts/131204772

We watched Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket, a show about the horrors of war seen through the eyes of a child who, while not exactly bright or good at school, is somehow able to outsmart every single adult in this show. To include entire military organizations and spy agencies?

Episode 364 - The Pastry War
25/05/2025 Duração: 01h16minCome see us live in London June 22nd: https://bigbellycomedy.club/event/lions-led-by-donkeys-podcast-live-big-fat-festival-southbank/ A conflict breaks out between a newly independent Mexico and a newly back-to-having-kings France. It culminates in a small series of armed incursions and blockades in 1838-39. Did it start because of an aggrieved French baker? Did Napoleon’s armies advance the science of military optics because their commander wanted to look at feet? In this episode (the first one where Nate has researched, written, and hosted), we get to the bottom of the semi-apocryphal Pastry War. Sources: Atwater, James D.; Ruiz, Ramon Eduardo.
