Love that the weapon hits were synced to the intro music

I love how Toby comments on more than the armor in these videos. The look into culture and other aspects of waging war which for most have only been absorbed through library books and questionably accurate films is something I've always liked about his segments.

Great episode, I'm so happy Toby's working with you guys once more! The Mjolnir helmet from Halo on the shelf behind him got me wondering his thoughts on sci-fi/futuristic armors as a broader subject. I know you've talked Warhammer 40K with him, and I can't wait for more reactions to that franchise, but there are a surprising number of iconic armors in the genre as a whole now that I think about it.

Please more! It's always nice to hear Toby talk about history (not just armour)

Dunno if this has been brought up, but is there anywhere the theme that plays on intro or outro has been released?
