The Han is finally ending, once and for all. And with that, I have told the story I set out to tell
-
After literally years, we have reached the penultimate episode for the Han Dynasty. The yellow turban rebellion is here, and with it, the end of the Han. Things are not as simple as they may seem, though, and what truly brings it all down is what we have spent the last 10 episodes dealing with. The Han dug a grave, but finally...they are laying in it

Rome meets China (officially), and the Eunuchs take over. That's one heck of a sentence, but the people have finally had enough. It seems they (rightfully) have decided the emperor has lost the Mandate of Heaven
-
Like Darth Vader finally being put into his suit, Liang Ji has reached his final form. His scheming worked, and it was continuing to work...all at the expense of honest government. Will he be stopped? Can he be stopped?
Be sure to rate the show 5 stars and give it a follow!

Happy Holidays to all, but it won't be happy if you are in Liang J's way. One of the best villains we have seen so far is here. All that, and more
-
The show is back! For a long time, mind you - something the Eastern Han can't say...
-
An Emperor named An, and one who is remembered for corruption and vice at that. Oh, and the guy that invented paper is back. Listen now for all that, and more.
-
Emperor He is a nice guy...that's great and all, but does that make him a competent head of state? No, no it does not. But also, Gan Ying ends up in Parthia and learns about Da Qin. Da Qin? Oh, that is what the Han called Rome.
-
Somethings things slip away without you realizing, and that is what is happening here to the Eastern Han. But it is not all bad, buckle up as we deal with a Godfather style takeover, meet the man behind the "Book of Han", and oh yah, Rome.
-
The foundation was laid, now it is time to reap those rewards. But when times are good, court dramas come back...oh, and the person who invents paper shows up. All that and more on this episode. Listen now!
-
On today's intro we dive into the early story of Buddhism and its early practices/beliefs, oh, and the end of Emperor Ming.

Buddhism is here...sort of. And Emperor Ming does not take kindly to people hiring warlocks to curse him.

Thank you to all of you who have listened and made the show what it is. So, without further delay, the 50th episode special!

Unification is more or less set, thus Emperor Guangwu must embark on a new challenge: actually governing. In this episode, we explore the continued genius of Emperor Guangwu (formally Liu Xiu) as he navigates these sensitive times.

On part two of our two part story, we reach the moment of the Eastern Han's creation. A story of absolute tactical and political brilliance (and so much more), buckle up for what is to come. All that, and more.

In part one of this two part story, we dive into the wild game of thrones that erupts with the fall of Wang Mang. It's one of the best stories in a while, so buckle up.

No, not an episode about beauty trends. Instead, policy issues coupled with catastrophic natural disasters create an untenable situation for the peasant farms of the Han...I mean new Xin Dynasty (created by Wang Mang). Enter the Red Eyebrows amongst other rebel bandit groups forced into a decentralized situation as they stumble into the position of bringing down the Xin Dynasty of Wang Mang as fast as it came about. All that, and more, on this week's episode.
-
We finally reached an epoch shifting moment. There is a lot, so buckle up....
-
Before the Han Dynasty gets thrown into the tornado of problems described last episode, let's dive into a Dynasty-Wide check in. Money, policy, technology, and of course, a conspiracy so wild you won't want to miss it....even if it is doubtful at best.
