It was bound to happen sometime, folks. Join Emily and LiZz as they talk about some actual, real life gunswords, and why anyone thought that was a good idea. Also, are Push Pops still a thing? Please tell us. We need to know.

We're goin' back to the basics with today's episode, folks! Swords are great and all, but you know what's better? The stuff they're made with! LiZz gives a basic overview of the different types of steel that are out there, Emily makes a weird beef analogy, pretty much the standard formula, you know.

Hey, what's that weird carving on that sword mean? Is it decorative or what? And what's the deal with hockey anyway? We answer all of these questions and more on this week's episode.

In this episode, we talk about the knives, spears, and swords the Vikings might have used! There's also a weird horse glass tangent right in the beginning, and, uh, look, I'm not entirely sure what happened during this one. I just hope you guys get some sort of good fun info out of it between the goofs.

This is your pretty typical Audio Armory episode: Emily talks about some unrelated nonsense for the first three minutes, and then we jump right in to three swords from the Ottoman Empire, which may sound a little familiar to you! Spoiler: everyone steals from everyone else, include sword designs. Also, you know we hit those ottoman puns hard.

Well excuuuuuse me, princess! Emily's on the reigns with the episode this week, so we're talking about another cool fantasy sword: the Master Sword from Legend of Zelda! You know, Zelda, the green guy. With the sword? And what the heck is with the Zelda timeline anyway? Plus, a combo tip of the week from both of your tired hosts.

Okay campers, rise and shine and don't forget your booties 'cause it's coooooold out there today! Because we're in Russia. Talking about Russian swords. LiZz probably mispronounces things, Emily has a screaming breakdown about gun swords, both are very tired.

A three-for-one deal on the Audio Armory this week: we cover swords and spears from Malaysia, Myanmar, and the Philippines! Just like it says in the title there. Also, Emily has a fashion-related breakdown, and we get a little heavy at the end there, but it's worth it.

We continue our tour of India with a brief history of Indian Polearms! Because what's better than a sword? That's right: a sword attached to the end of a big stick.

We're back to the normal format for this episode! Strap in as your local blacksmith regales you with the tales of swords from India and Sri Lanka! Also, a breakdown twelve episodes in the making.
