Today is January 18th.

On this day in 1871, the Prussian King Wilhelm I was proclaimed emperor of the newly formed German Empire. Host Mike Hover (@hoverdrive) talks with royal party planner Oberon Hoffmann (Sarah Little) on the coronation and party held at the Hall of Mirrors in the Palace of Versailles. It was epic.
