episode 33: What are YOU looking at! - 1786


Be provoked beyond reason by 18th century Ireland's most quarrelsome and violent bully boy - George "Fighting" Fitzgerald. 
Its a short tempered tale of animal disguise, head trauma, gratuitous musketry and good old fashioned insanity.

  • What did Fitzgerald do to his father - twice!?
  • How did he stand when facing an armed opponent?
  • Should you  avoid him on a narrow street?
  • Why should you not try and seduce his female travelling companion?

All these questions will be answered in episode 33 of Rogues Gallery Uncovered - The podcast of Bad Behaviour in Period Costume.

Thanks for listening. Stay Roguish!
