Tonight we journey into the mists of history with Marco Polo and his uncles as they journey across the world to the court of Kublai Khan and back again. The 13th century has never been so dreamy.

This week's episode complements a new tale about Genghis Khan by one of my favorite YouTube ASMRtists, The French Whisperer. I encourage you to check him out for relaxation and sleep. He's wonderful!
