In this episode of History Squirt, we explore Alexander the Great when he was drunk — which is most of the time. City burnings, stabbing friends mid-toast, questionable divine claims, and an empire built between hangovers. Conquering the known world is impressive. Doing it wine-soaked is unhinged. Let’s squirt!
Topics: Alexander the Great, ancient Macedonia, Greek conquests, Persian Empire, ancient warfare, drunken history, classical world history, funny history podcast, History Squirt
