In a wacky discussion, Craig, Ian and Eric discuss their favorite battles of History . . . and the "Dolphin of France".

the hosts delve into the complexities of the Hundred Years' War, emphasizing that it was not a continuous conflict but rather a series of smaller campaigns. They highlight the contrasting tactics of the French and English armies during the Battle of Agincourt, where the French relied on heavy cavalry while the English utilized longbowmen. The muddy terrain played a crucial role, hindering the French cavalry's advance and allowing the English to inflict significant casualties.

As the conversation shifts, they touch on the aftermath of Agincourt, noting how it decimated the French nobility and forced a tactical evolution in their military leadership. The hosts also discuss the rise of Joan of Arc, who emerged as a pivotal figure during a time when England was pulling back from its control over France.

The dialogue is peppered with humor and references to pop culture, including movies about these historical events. They express frustration over misconceptions about historical figures and battles, particularly regarding the portrayal of soldiers and tactics in modern media. The hosts conclude their discussion with a light-hearted banter about the absurdities of history and the importance of understanding the nuances behind these significant events, leaving listeners with a deeper appreciation for the complexities of warfare and its impact on society.
