This week we're staying in 17th Century as we welcome Historian, and author of "Fighting for Liberty", Steve Carter who joins us to rage that the Monmouth Rebellion was not some rag tag bunch of peasants armed with pitchforks.

He talks to Paul and Kyle about the backers, the plan and the impressively advanced equipment that Monmouth lands with and how the rebellion falls apart, not because of a shoddy army, but because of the role of intelligence and information.
