This week, the MacBroz are running on fumes—but that might actually make the episode better. We put our handgun opinions to the test with a blind-ranking pistols game, forcing ourselves to place each pistol before knowing what was coming next. As expected, there were questionable decisions, instant regret, and plenty of arguments over where each gun belonged. We also catch up on a few of Darius' projects that are finally headed home, including his M&P with Dime Bag porting from Monsoon Tactical and his Staccato C, which has been with the Doctor at Mad Science Tactical for some much-needed triage and maintenance. Plus, we explain how to enter the MacBroz giveaway. You have two chances to win: Enter for one prize through www.themacbroz.com, or join us LIVE for Episode 104 on August 7, 2026, for another chance to win. You must be watching the live show to claim the live giveaway prize. We're two tired dads recording at the end of a long workweek, so the laughs get a little loopy—but that's part of the fun. Sit back, enjoy the chaos, and let us know how badly we messed up the pistol rankings.

Did Regency gentlemen really fight duels to defend a woman's honour? Was Colonel Brandon the gallant hero we often imagine, or was his challenge to Willoughby driven by anger, revenge, and a deeply ingrained code of masculine honour?In this episode of What the Austen? I'm joined by Paul Bavill from History Rage to separate fact from fiction as we explore the fascinating world of Regency duelling. Together, we unpack why gentlemen really challenged one another, the strict rituals that governed these deadly encounters, and why many duels weren't intended to end in bloodshed.Using Colonel Brandon's notorious, yet only briefly mentioned, duel with Willoughby in Sense and Sensibility as our case study, we ask whether Austen presents Brandon as a romantic hero or subtly critiques the culture of honour that drove men to risk their lives over reputation.Expect plenty of myth-busting, surprising historical facts, and a fresh perspective on one of Austen's most admired gentlemen.Whether you're an Austen fan, a history enthusiast, or simply curious about the real Regency era, this episode is sure to challenge what you thought you knew about pistols at dawn.As I mentioned in the episode, be sure to check out Paul's podcast and hop aboard the Rage Train! History Rage is a weekly podcast where historians of every flavour and period come together to answer one simple question: "What's the one historical 'fact' you wish everyone would just stop believing?" From there, the sparks really do fly!Follow @historyrage for more historical myth-busting, and @whattheausten for all things Jane Austen... and, occasionally, me.
