North and South (2004)

Hart of Dixie Chicks

This is an episode years in the making, much like the Marx-Engles Reader. We’re deep diving into North & South aka Pride & Prejudice & Death & Unions. Listen as we gush about our love of practical effects, the danger of The Fluff, and a miniseries worth of Very Good Faces. Look back at us, dear hearts.
