England: South Sea Bubble - Lies - Extra History

Support us on Patreon! http://bit.ly/EHPatreon Watch the South Sea Bubble series! http://bit.ly/1xfVN9W Subscribe for new episodes every other Saturday! http://bit.ly/SubToEC Follow us on Facebook! http://bit.ly/ECFBPage Follow us on Twitter! http://bit.ly/ECTweet Follow us on Twitch! http://bit.y/ECTwitch ____________ No historian is perfect, so it's important we acknowledge our mistakes where we find them (with the help of our viewers, no less)! After we clear up some discrepancies that emerged during the South Sea Bubble series, we turn to answering some common questions that came up during this series on economic history. In a period where financial masterminds like John Blunt engaged in trickery meant to confuse other people and hide his real activities, it's no wonder that many viewers had questions about what insider trading is and how Blunt could endlessly inflate stock prices for his unprofitable company. This is a history show, but we do our best to explain! As a bonus, James also reads Robert Knight's letter to Parliament on the eve of his illegal flight and tells some cool stories about Robert "It was Me" Walpole. ___________ BONUS!

Very good Lies. If James ever started a podcast, I'd listen to it.

Yet another good episode! The final fantasy xi music is amazing too. Lots of people haven't appreciated that games great score, and story telling.

I love that you care enough about history and education that you're willing to take the time to get into more details on things you talk about in the episodes. I hope that you continue to be passionate with the show as the new topics are being brought up. Love the frequent updates and I am so proud to support this. Thank you James and Extra Credits!

I definitely think Moist von Lipwig and Reacher Gilt owe a lot to John Law and Blunt. I love how knowing history can add to an appreciation of fiction, and vice versa.
