Happy birthday, Victor Hugo! In celebration, your hosts spend this episode dragging the man's masterpiece Les Miserables through the mud of their mutual thirst. This is technically an episode about the musical, though Amelia may or may not have poured over all the parts of the book exclusively relevant to Javert. We just can't know. Featuring Les Mis humiliation at the hands of family members, Javert character meta, song analysis, more Javert character meta, textual evidence misappropriated to support the Javert meta... Sorry Victor.
