Part 1 of 2.Support the show and get ad-free content on PatreonAlso, I decided Richard and I's biographical series is gonna be called "Bad Role Models" since that seems to be the theme... Also "Behind the Bastards" was already taken.Citations:Malcolm McDowell Movie "If...." (1968)Byron: Life and Legend by Fiona MacCarthyTchaikovsky Piano Concerto No. 1 performed by Anna Fedorova and the Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie led by Yves Abel (Creative Commons)IMHO the 1958 version with Van Cliburn and Fritz Reiner / Chicago Symphony is best.
