Battle Buddies - Episode 58 - Battle of Little Bighorn: Custer's Ass
play

07/07/24 • 141 min

Think you know Custer's Last Stand? Think again. This ain't your grandpappy's history lesson. We're riding into the heart of the Little Bighorn to unpack the truth behind the legend.

Join us as we dig up:

  • The real story (spoiler alert: it's not all about Custer's ego)
  • Native American perspectives (because history ain't one-sided, folks)
  • Epic battles, boneheaded decisions, and enough drama to fill a wagon train (seriously, this fight had everything)

We separate myth from fact with a healthy dose of humor, because let's face it, learning about history shouldn't put you to sleep.
