History for You with Douglas and Hugh

The Hanging Gardens of Babylon


Listen Later

We already excavated the Great Pyramid of Giza, so it would be remiss of us not to take a look at the remaining six of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. So we did. And we have. And this is the next.


Just what made the Hanging Gardens of Babylon so wondrous? What made them Hanging? Where is Babylon anyway? Did they even exist? And who got to decide the Seven Wonders anyway? So many questions...and we have the answers!


Use your ears to discover the truth. And you'll also find out what's gone horribly wrong with Hugh's fingers and what Douglas was told by his therapist. In both instances, it's not pretty...
