The Conqueror Who Never Learned When to Stop
| | History remembers Alexander as a military genius and ultimate hero. Sean and Brandon remember him as the guy with severe mommy issues who burned down cities while drunk. Both versions are true, and this episode covers it all.
You'll hear about:
- Growing up with a mom who insisted his real dad was Zeus
- Becoming king at 20 and executing every rival in one afternoon
- Terrifying King Darius so badly at Gaugamela that he just turned and ran
- The honey coffin that preserved his body after death in Babylon
- How a 12-year-old tamed a horse that would've killed anyone else
