Alexander the Great and Marco Polo Both Fought Dragons

New studio, same chaos. Dylan and Sam Tripoli return after a few weeks off to break down one of the show's biggest theories yet: that dragons weren't myth, but a real species written out of the historical record. They trace dragon accounts from Alexander the Great's reported sighting in a cave after invading India, to Marco Polo's travel logs, to Saint George's documented dragon slayings across three continents — and lay out the theory that the Catholic Church suppressed the truth to protect its own claim to power. Along the way: the case that dinosaur bones were first identified as Nephilim giants, the Chinese zodiac's one "fake" animal, and a Leviathan-Godzilla connection tying it all to ancient sea monster cults. Also this episode: Dark Smith's ongoing Gulf War Syndrome saga, Nancy Mace's tattoo collection, and a breakdown of Mark Zuckerberg's "personal superintelligence" pitch and what it means for surveillance, censorship, and comedy on Instagram.
