Episode description
This week, Chris, James and Michael pay a visit to Qin Shi Huang, China’s very first emperor. He unified ancient China, oversaw the construction of the Great Wall and commissioned the Terracotta Army, hoping it would protect him in the afterlife. But he was also a brutal tyrant who burned books, enslaved his enemies and castrated anyone who made him angry. The guy LOVED castration!
Plus, in the intro: James makes a bid for a Guinness World Record, we discuss Shaq’s stressful career as a commercial actor, and commence the official First Annual Evil Men Sexiest Voice Competition. Enjoy!
