In this week's episode, the Cups break down another modern-day (ish!) Assassin cell. This one is Boris Pash's Bloodstone Unit. Interestingly, they're not officially classified as an assassin group. However, they are classified as a terrorist organization. Listen now, and let us know what you think about this fascinating group.

In this week's episode, the Cups move into a series discussing the many different assassin cells, starting with Francesco Vecellio's cell! This series will focus mostly on the modern-day assassins. While Vecellio's cell is from the 1400s and definitely isn't modern, his cell forms a basis that many of the other cells will copy. Listen now!

In this week's episode, the Cups are back to breaking down another obscure Piece of Eden. This time, we're discussing a Piece of Eden that also happens to be a central part of Norse mythology. We're discussing the World Tree--Yggdrasil. Connected to the Norse Aesir gods, like Odin, Thor, and Loki, the World Tree is massively important both in Norse mythological tales and also in the Assassin's Creed Universe.
