Alexis is someone I wish I got to perform with more often. I remember being pleasantly surprised when he pitched me a history-focused show; as a history major myself (from what college I did attend) it's a broad subject that I really enjoy discussing, but always find there to be no real opportunities to do so.
The show's namesake, 'Great Man Theory', isn't a historical view that I personally find to hold much water, but I hope that it served as a strong basis to inform and entertain you, while also informing you and helping you to look at historical figures in a new light.
As with every episode, please let us know what you thought about this one! Any changes you'd like to see to it? Would you like to see it again? Got your own show idea? Let us know!
