    S10E7. King of the Peasants
    Dec 11 2025

    Indentured peasants, motivated by nothing more than a love of the land and a cripilingly inescapable system of debt and ownership.

    Poor? Definitely.

    Stupid? Perhaps.

    Violent? Only when drunk or angry.

    But forget what you might have heard about them down at your local gentlemans club, because this week we're joining the unwashed masses to discover first hand what they really think, believe and feel.

    Who leads them? What do they want? Will they ever be free?

  • S10E6. Now You See Me, Nasty Nick Me Not!

    S10E6. Now You See Me, Nasty Nick Me Not!
    Oct 26 2025

    All good things must come to an end - like the weekend, sleeping or a bowl of nice chips.

    Even bad things must come to an end, like the hokey cokey, January, or a bee attack.

    This week in War and Peace some things are coming to an end. But are these things good things, or bad things?

    Or to put it another way, are they a bowl of chips, or an attack by bees, or something in between?

    Ultimately you must decide.

  • S10E5. The Tale of Two Circles

    S10E5. The Tale of Two Circles
    Sep 8 2025

    Circles, glorious circles, no beginning and no end, round as the day is long, perfect as a polished samovar at dawn.

    But what happens if you take the humble circle and then slightly overlap it with another circle?

    What then? What might happen? What could you call it? What would it do?

    Join us this week as we vennture into not one, but two War and Peace circles that risk overlapping at any moment.

This podcast is a hilarious meander through War and Peace. The comedic hosts make no sophisticated attempt at literary analysis, they’re just having a lot of fun as they slowly read through War and Peace and summarise it with their own flavour. I enjoyed the novel before I listened to this, but the podcast has taken my enjoyment to a whole new level. It’ll give you belly laughs, eye rolls, and a warm heart.
