This week, Rachel is back in China discussing the Ming dynasty which has an upgraded version of Confucianism, an underrated invention, and a guest appearance by some Italians as we also preview the Qing dynasty who let the smart people rule and still failed. This week's myth moment is a spotlight on the man behind some Chinese stories who could teach you how to write horror novels and some more about feminism.
