This week, in the introductory episode of Cam's long promised series on the 'Fall' of the Western Roman Empire, and the rise of the 'Barbarians' we outline the mission statement for the series as a whole, and discuss the state of the Roman Empire from the late-2nd Century up through the mid-4th Century CE. This includes the Antonine Plague, the Crisis of the 3rd Century, the brief but glorious reign of Emperor Aurelian, the sundering of the Empire by the Emperor Diocletian, and the early introduction of the Goths and their friends.

Happy Halloween, Ghouls and Goblins! This year, we wanted to talk about something truly horrifying. Something utterly bone-chilling. A topic even more horrific than Halloween III: Season of the Witch, which is admittedly a tall order. What is this eerie and macabre subject, you ask? U.S. Electoral Politics, of course! If you want our predictions, you'll have to listen to 40+ minutes of hot takes, so buckle up.

This week we sat down to discuss the unveiling of Elon's super cool bartender robots, tipping culture in American restaurants and local ballot questions in that same vein, the potential debunking of the 'Blue Zone' theory, and the U.S. Government's bungling of Hurricane aid following a brutal storm season in the Southeast.

Dear initiates, come with us on a journey back to the fog-shrouded island of Britannia as we re-enter the landscape of the ancient mysteries on this exotic land at the edge of the Roman Empire. We will take a look at the different forms of worship in the towns and countryside of Britannia after the coming of the Romans, and then we will look at their cosmology. Finally, we will get into the weirder side of rituals and curses, and then take a look at the symbology of these cults.

Sorry for the delay in getting this episode out, dear listeners. We've had a rough and busy few weeks lately.
We got together to talk about the recent happenings in Trump’s campaign, including Laura Loomer becoming Trump’s Grima Wormtongue, the bizarre second assassination attempt, and finally spend a fair bit of time going over the horrifying escalation of hostilities in Lebanon last week.
