In the 1690s, Scotland tried to establish a colony in Panama... it did not go well. In fact it went so badly that it bankrupted almost the entire country. Recorded live at The Monkey Barrel Comedy Club in Edinburgh.
This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 08:36 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
