This episode contains my new co-host, Aurora, who went by Asha at the time this was recorded in 2023

We review the novel We by Yevgeny Zamyatin, and with us we have Aurora and Ketho from Swords, Sorcery, and Socialism. It's a fun time with many discussion points that we can't wait for you to hear.

Unfortunately, my co-host has had to drop out of the show, and we are entering a hiatus until the new year. Content will still be made, but a new mainline episode will not be.

It's Yuri Long-Arm's turn to be the new Kievan prince, and the first time we advance in time since Viacheslav I! He founds a whole slew of new cities, especially one on the Moskva river. Wonder if that'll ever be important.

Iziaslav has now taken Kiev from the short-ruling Igor. Will he steer Rus clear from the ongoing civil war for power, or just lead it further down the path of destruction? And what's all that thunder?

Brendan and I review the Russian film Viking, based on the life of Vladimir the Great. This is to hold you guys over until Episode 20. Igor II can come out. Enjoy

Patrons. Expect Pushkin out before Igor II.

Thank you all for your continued support as Roberto deals with new health issues, intense work schedule, his master's, and trip to Georgia!

We will be releasing again in June, and hopefully, much more consistently. I do want to get to Alexander Nevsky.

The Dynasty of Chernigov returns to the throne! Hordes of Cumans! The Monomakhi line is upset! Will Vsevolod be victorious in his goals of conquest?
