Ben Thompson

Ben Thompson is a writer, podcaster, and author of fourteen books on various awesome historical subjects, including the Guts & Glory and Epic Fails series. He has appeared on television programs for the History Channel, Discovery, and the American Heroes Channel, and has written articles for outlets such as Cracked, Mental Floss, and The American Mustache Institute. He currently owns four swords (if you count a letter opener shaped like Glamdring the Foe-Hammer), and is very happy that he appears on the Wikipedia disambiguation page alongside a famous gunfighter, Count Rumsford, and like a dozen Australian Rules Football players.
