I think that kind of on whichever side you're on, you might be surprised by the way we handle the episodes.

But whatever side, all different sides.

I think you'll be surprised at how we handle it because what we're not trying to do is take the left-wing propaganda that has been disseminated by the school system and Hollywood and all that and replace it with our own sort of overly simplistic cartoonish kind of right-wing version of these events.

We're not doing that.

And especially with something like the Civil War, you kind of find that where, you know, you've got you've got the mainstream narrative, which is that the Union, the Confederates were all just evil Nazis, basically, and the Union were freedom fighters.

But then you have the kind of response that the revisionist side that flips that on its head.

And now the Union are the evil demons and the Confederate.

And so what we're trying to do is

actually take this and look at it objectively and just tell you the story, the real story of this episode of history.

I think we have a clip.

Which is complex.

Oh, we do.

Okay.

Why am I babbling about it?

Just play the damn clip.

I wanted to hear the babble.

History is written by the victors, and since the 1960s we've been told, mostly by people whose ancestors didn't even live here during the war, that the South committed treason.

But if the Confederates were traitors, then why was Jefferson Davis never put on trial for treason?

What were Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson afraid of?

Do they know something they're not allowed to say today?
