Music by donkeys and join the Legion of the Old Crow today. Hello and welcome to the Lions Out by Donkeys podcast.

I'm Joe and with me is Tom and Nate.

Bellas, how are you doing?

Hot in a basement again.

I mean, most of our life is spent this way, but yeah, good.

Trapped in a room that vaguely smells like monster munch.

Joe'd never had monster munch before, and I sold it to him on the premise that it's basically like the British version of funions, which is exactly what it tastes like.

Mm-hmm, that's true. Now we all just smell like onions, though. We'll go away a lot better than if you were eating, you know, Primo, Armenian cuisine,

all the raw onions. You leave the raw onions alone. They're delicious. So I've gathered you here today

because we're going to talk about we all know him. We all love him. He's history's greatest

twink of warlord. It's Alexander the Great. I'll be honest. I don't actually know that much about it,

but I'm excited to learn. All right. Great. And we've never really talked about him on the show before,

which is kind of weird for a history show that's been going for almost a decade. Yeah, I would have

thought that we would have talked about him before now. Well, it's not because I'm homoph In fairness, also, like, we don't really talk about ancient history stuff that often.

Yeah.
