How could the Three Little Pigs have stopped the most powerful military of the 1st century BCE? That's what we set out to explore on this episode of Seemingly Unrelated where we dive into the history of steel making, story telling, and how they connect the Battle of Carrhae with learning to code in Python.

Our guest co-host this week is puppeteer extoridanaire Alicia Britt!

We'll be asking the big questions this week like: How do you court an armorer? What is so common about the 'Common Era?' Which real time strategy game unit works best against the Roman legions? As well as, could Rumpelstiltskin spin you a website made of gold?

All these questions and the secret anti-capitalist lesson of the Three Little Pigs this week on Seemingly Unrelated.
