571: Young Washington
Summary
Host Eli Bosnick and guest Andrew Rakich review Angel Studios’ *Young Washington*, a film they deem historically inaccurate and poorly made. They critique its anachronistic warfare, stereotypical portrayals of Native Americans and the French, and its insulting depiction of George Washington as incompetent. The hosts also condemn the movie’s Christian nationalist agenda and the participation of actors like Ben Kingsley in what they view as fascist propaganda.
