We welcome back Rhiannon from episode 2 and MamaFaerie fame. Rhiannon wants to know if we will once again feature 'flowing tits and ass' and comes to regret that the semi answer is 'yes.'

Satish recounts the game of dice for Rhiannon and Azure. Yudhishthira, the oldest of the Pandavas has just been crowned emperor of the known world. No one except perhaps Indra of the heavens owns as much as he does. He is invited by his conniving cousin Duryodhana to a game of dice, and though every person tells him not to accept, Yudhistira does.

Rhiannon and Azure are understandably confounded by the decisions being made by everyone in this episode that is a turning point for the scions of the Kuru Kingdom.

S.P. Jayaraj is the creator of the mythic world of Adijari that is the setting of his two novels, The Secret of the Zipacna Dragons and Legacy of the Crow. He is also a Creative Life Coach through his business Imagination Life Coaching. The Mahabharata and other global mythology inspires him in all his projects.

Satish welcomes his old friend Grant Boulanger to the episode. No need to hash out what has happened before this time, because Nothing Has happened. Satish begins with Vishnu's origin on the primordial ocean and the stories that led to Brahma first and then Shiva. If you listened to our last episode, you'll recognize the story of the guards of Indra's realm, Jaya and Vijaya, who finally left this earth after their time as Shishupala and Dantavakra.

Grant Boulanger is an educator, a potter, an artist.

As a Spanish teacher Grant uses methods that rely on and trust in the human brain’s unique power and ability to acquire language naturally. As part of his process he optimizes the environment for language acquisition to make it easier for students to absorbs complex rules without effort. He believes in creating the best learning environments for the brain to do its job.

Yudhishthira is now emperor. All that is left is to choose a guest of honor...It doesn't go well.

We welcome John Rynders to tell him the story of what happens when Yudishthira closes the ceremony by honoring Krishna. Shishupala who has been carrying a grudge against Krishna chooses now to let it all out!
Satish recounts for John and Azure how that goes, and how what happens satisfies a prophesy made when Shishupala was a babe, and a promise made eons ago back when the universe was young.

With Jarasandha no longer a threat, The younger Pandava brothers need to go far and wide to gather tribute for the oldest brother's emperor ceremony.

Satish tells Azure about each of the brothers journeys and how it intersects with stories and characters already told. Ghatotkacha returns to help them reach the land of Lanka and the epic story of the Ramayana that took place before the Mahabharata.

Then, everyone is invited for the emperor ceremony, the Rajasuya, including the Kauravas who are fulling included in the process. But Duryhodana has an embarrassing moment that leaves a bitter and possibly false memory.

Satish tells the story of Krishna's, Arjuna's, and Bheem's not so subtle infiltration of Jarasandha's kingdom. Jarasandha has captured 84 kings and the trio is here to save them. Our guest Mahala and Azure question the weird honor codes at play and oh boy- the soul splitting finale demands a built in do-over.

Stories we began in the Krishna Chronicles come to fruition here.

Trevor Rolando joins us for our 25th episode!

We close out our last episode story of Arjuna bringing his new wife Subhadra to meet his wife Draupadi.

Satish tells the story of the burning of the Khandava forest- a story of great significance and featuring gods, cosmic weapons, demons and a few very specific survivors.

One of whom creates one of the greatest treasures for the Pandavas that will fuel incredible envy in future episodes!

Lindsay Buck joins us to hear all about Arjuna's 12 year exile. Satish takes the opportunity to re-tell the reason for Arjuna's exile with a puppy dog twist. Lindsay's suspicions of multiple characters gives Satish room to talk about multiple variations in the story, while we also throw in some of our own.

Arjuna visits all the holy sites of ancient India, but it's not all dull walking and mediation. He also meets 'marries' and fornicates - creating whole new families while banned from visiting his first. Krishna also comes in and helps a cousin out when Arjuna can't stop thinking about Krishna's sister Subhadra. We get to tour Krishna's home of Dwaraka through Arjuna's eyes, which has some fun throwbacks to our Krishna Chronicles.

We are back to following the story of the Pandavas! After our stint with Krishna, we are pleased to welcome our friend Rachael Gaetz to recap the Pandavas adventures through the eyes of King Dritarashtra.

Dritarashtra, Duryhodana and Karna are not happy to discover that the Pandavas are still alive and less pleased about their marriage to Draupadi. The scheming begins immediately, but the politics of the situation have vastly changed. They no longer have the upper hand but are still determined to somehow come out on top.
Rachael is enthralled to hear about these Pandavas marriage to Draupadi. She is curious what the lady Draupadi thinks of Narayana coming in and convincing her men to make a vow about how they spend their time with her.
