Episode:
Today, our guest is Ben Thompson from Badass of the Week! We get to chat about how to talk about history in an entertaining way, the balance between accuracy and good storytelling, Benvenuto Cellini, some of Ben's favorites, Marco Polo, injecting humor in dark stories, writing history for kids, people being more comfortable with violence than sexuality, the Badass of the Week podcast, and much more! Please, check out all the new things I started (a YouTube page for History on Fire, Substack, Patreon, Instagram, etc.). All the links are at https://linktr.ee/danielebolelli
