061: The Tables Have Turned
03/09/22 • 22 min
Today, we start with a quick check-in on the taifas in al-Andalus, but we quickly turn northward and see what’s happening in Christian Iberia. This will set the stage for an epic national hero to be born, raised, and come of age. Stick with it, folks. This season’s shaping up to be awesome! I hope you agree.
