Dan wil NEVER do a Napoleon series

I am currently listening to the Age of Napoleon podcast b/c Dan doesn't have a series on him. HOLY SMOKES is there a lot of context when it comes to Napoleon. You cannot separate the french revolution from the topic of Napoleon. You also cannot really separate the geopolitical landscape of western and eastern europe, as well as the Catholic Church from Napoleon. These topics in of themselves are massive.

Dan is the man, but he often drowns in context (understandably). The volume of context that you have to have to truly appreciate what Napoleon does is gigantic. This podcast is currently at around 120hr of material and will probably end with around 200 when it's all said and done. It would take Dan probably 1,000 hours of content to do it his way.

Just a realization I had, also it's a very solid podcast for anyone looking to learn about the subject.
