Episode 610: She Probably Met a Nice God

Ken and Robin Talk About Stuff

In the Gaming Hut beloved Patreon backer Lauberfen asks us to seek mythic inspiration for gaming scenarios.

Estimable backer Derek Upham beckons us to the Tradecraft Hut for our take on the theory that infamous pirate Henry Every might have had a second covert career as a spy.

The Mythology Hut investigates the shamir, the enigmatic device or rock-eating worm credited with carving Solomon’s temple.

Finally Ken’s Time Machine heads back into history to restore the original name of the dollar.
