In this bonus episode Liv and Dr. Kira Jones (@FlavianSophist) have a particularly free wheeling conversation about AC Odyssey's Kassandra: the wonder, the strength, the drama, the overall nerd-ery. They talk historical intricacies of the game, the history behind its creation, the diversity. Plus an anecdote about the very real Alcibiades and Herms.

1:35.2 | now one thing of note and the reason this is a bonus episode is that it does |
1:39.6 | contain spoilers for the game so if you are particularly concerned with not |
1:44.5 | having the storyline of the game spoiled for you |
1:48.0 | maybe wait to listen to this episode until you have played it |
1:52.5 | I think when we get deep into the spoilers I believe I make a spoiler |
