Episode 11:Vikings - Part Two
Manage episode 348732689 series 3367643
In this second of two episodes on Vikings, Aaron, Robert, and Daniel discuss the horrors of Wagner; debate which composer would be a beast on social media; and who, among philosophers, is most like a child who can’t wait to tell you dinosaur facts. The gang then chats about tabletop roleplaying and Stephen McNallen.
Music by Daniel Griggs.
