On Episode 5 of the Arts Union Science Interdisciplinary Volume, we take a gander at what total war looked like 100 years ago through comparison of the documentary They Shall Not Grow Old and the action-spectacle 1917. Join your corresponding author (Tyler D. R. Vance) and this week\u2019s first author (Alistair Blinn) as they put their collective (but not balanced) knowledge about World War I to the test against the likes of Peter Jackson and Sam Mendes. Along the way, they\u2019ll question/vindicate the lack of war readiness in the modern era, marvel over the technical advances that allowed both movies to be made, and accidentally give free advertisement for TCL televisions. If you\u2019d like to leave a review of our episode, feel free to email us at artsunionscience@gmail.com.

P.S. The novel I couldn\u2019t remember in the podcast is called \u201cThe War That Ended Peace\u201d by Margaret MacMillan.
