    This episode, we finally get to the beginnings of the French Revolution and how it affected one Louis XVI, a King of France who was in way over his head, to put it mildly. Why did the revolution start in his reign? What weird hobbies did he indulge in the meantime? And next episode, will we be guillotining him AGAIN? ⚜️ RECOMMENDATIONS Go learn more about the French Revolution with these handy recommendations! - ⁠Revolutions ⁠podcast by Mike Duncan - ⁠Grey History⁠ podcast by Will Clark - ⁠A New World Begins: The History of the French Revolution⁠ by Jeremy D. Popkin (audiobook read by Pete Cross) ⚜️MUSIC This week's outro music is a 1791 revolutionary song "⁠Poursuite et retour de la Famille Ci-devant Royale⁠", celebrating the failure of the Flight to Varennes. This version was recorded by Michel Godard and released by Alpha Records in 2011 on the album "France 1789: Révolte en musique d'un sans-culotte & d'un royaliste". Also used in this episode was "⁠La Marseillaise⁠", performed by Rouget de Lisle and the London Symphony Orchestra, produced by Kurt List and digitally remastered in 2002 by EMI Records Ltd.

    It's time to get down to brass tax and rate Louis XV. Was he the do-nothing king later historians have tarred him as? And are good intentions and pretty art enough to save him from the guillotine? ⚜️ Visit our Wordpress for episode images, score summaries, contact details and more!
