We talk to naturalist, conservationist and fencer Steph Holt of The 1595 club in the UK. We discuss the sidesword, or war rapier, of Saviolo, as well as bats and ecology. This episode was recorded live on 23 June 2020. Unfortunately the recording suffered in places where the connection was lost, apologies for the quality.
