Kingdoms Gone

This episode contains the following segments:

• Our understanding of history can change how we depict it, and who gets to play the hero. We look at Kingdom Come: Deliverance as a case study. We talk to David Perry and Reid McCarter.
• Here's Reid's original article in Unwinnable, and Geraldine Heng's book on race in medieval Europe.
• Daniel Rosen gives us a look into Yakuza 6, the new adventure of the affable criminal Kazuma Kiryu, and why he's loved exploring its version of Japan.
