Episode description
We continue last weeks topic of the crusades. Europe's drunken weekend continues with wave after wave armies sent off to "fight the infidels", be they in the holy land or sometimes the south of France. Richard the Lionheart and Frederic Barbarossa make an appearance, and a pope attempts to lead an army into battle. Nothing goes well.
