This week we jump in an old timey fan boat and try to ward off the Spanish Empire from our beloved La Florida. Won't you join us as we try to utilise the local wildlife in our siege warfare?

Also in this episode: we find out why they call them cat scans, how to bisect a 100 pound buck in 9 easy steps, and what to do with ancestral wrath whilst holidaying.

We were joined by Gaius Flavius roman reenactor and memer who can be found at:
