The French Revolution: A beginner's guide

Published: March 11, 2024, 9:03 a.m.

If the words "French Revolution" seem daunting to you, then you're not alone.

It would take a whole series of podcast episodes to truly understand it all - and luckily for us - podcaster Mike Duncan has done exactly that. His\xa0Revolutions Podcast is world renowned.

In this episode of The Earful Tower, he breaks down the French Revolution to its simplest essence. You could call it "The French Revolution For Idiots", where I, your humble host, play the part of the idiot and ask all the questions you are too shy to ask.\xa0

As for Mike, a self-confessed "complete history geek", you can find more of his work via his Twitter page here.\xa0

This episode was first aired on The Earful Tower in 2019.\xa0
