We wrap up the Roaring 520s BC with a stellar cast of characters: The Buddha, Confucius, Lao Tzu, Darius and more! Tying up loose ends in China, a young Confucius meets the wise old Taoist sage Lao Tzu and the foundation of Chinese thought is birthed right here. And in Greece if one brother wasn't such a hot-head the movie "the 300" may never have been written and one of the most iconic and dramatic events of the ancient world may never have happened.Check out this episode for all the fun, facts, and philosophy you expect from Fan of History!Bulls Blood paper link - THANKS MARTIN!!https://portal.research.lu.se/en/publications/to-drink-bulls-blood-an-analysis-of-the-story-of-midasThis is a podcast by Dan Hörning and Bernie MaopolskiIf you like what we do you can support the Fan of History project on https://www.patreon.com/fanofhistoryContact information:E-mail: zimwaupodcast@gmail.comhttp://facebook.com/fanofhistoryhttps://twitter.com/danhorninghttps://www.instagram.com/dan_horning/ Support the show and listen ad-free to all of the episodes, including episode 1-87.
