Remember the puppy with the flamethrower looking for a home that he could burn down? Well he’s all grown up, found a place to call home, and he still has the flamethrower. Everything in Macedon is just fine… Hi, Ptolemy Keraunos!

Imagine a puppy. Now give it a flame thrower. Now kick the puppy out into the cold night and tell it that anything flammable is the reason it has no family. That is Ptolemy Keraunos. Have a nice day.

Oh man, part 2 of the golden boy! The great thing about Seleukos is that he’s the gift that keeps on giving, especially when he’s giving Antigonos a headache. Conquests, a weird story about a lion and a sweaty man, Lovecraftian-esque coffee, and more!

Finally, finally, finally! Seleukos Nikator, the one we've all been waiting for!!! Featuring our special guest star, Roberto from Tsar Power! Turns out Seleukos wasn't as innocent as we (just Dustin) had thought, but he's still the best! I mean, can you wrestle a bull to the ground with your bare hands? Seleukos totally can, and he wouldn't lie about it. Also, we showcase a festival you should never attend.

Lysimachus is the kind of guy who stands in the back of the room watching and waiting. He also fights lions but he'll surrender his entire army for a glass of water. He's a loving family man who hates his kids. Also there's incest.
