  • Ep #26 Aztec Empire's Excellent Adventure
    The Aztec Empire is the stuff of Legends and seems so distant from the world of today, yet their civilization was at its peak relatively recently.

We brought in expert Dr. Kirby Farah to school us on all things Aztec. Join us as we learn what happened to the empire that once dominated the Mexican basin.
