In the next podcast episode, we break down the final three episodes of Disney+’s historical drama A Thousand Blows. We explore the dangerous underground world of boxing in Victorian London, where we talk about bare knuckle boxing and the lives of real boxers like Hezekiah and Alec, who were risking their lives in and outside of the ring. We also look into Mary's budding relationship with the rising boxer and our speculation for adventure in Season 2.

The series, created by the makers of Peaky Blinders, features Malachi Kirby as Hezekiah Moscow, Stephen Graham as the formidable bare-knuckle boxing champion Sugar Goodson, and Erin Doherty as Mary Carr, the cunning leader of the infamous all‐female criminal gang, the Forty Elephants.

Finally, Kayla reccomends a Victorian period drama with just as much intringue and dark alleys as A Thousand Blows...
