What's New in History - Nubia!
•
I had the great pleasure of speaking with Blue from Brand Nubiin. Blue, apart from being one of the coolest guys you will ever meet, is a part of the Nubian diaspora who are coming together to celebrate and highlight the rich culture and history of Nubia.
We discuss the history and culture and of course get into philosophy and the power of humanity, because... me!
There's really some interesting stuff in here so definitely check it out. I apologize in advance for some of the noises in the audio. Our guest was in a busy area and I was not able to edit some of them out.
Check out the links below and let me know what you think after listening.

PS without the editing help of my favorite Aussie Garry Stevens from History IN the Bible I would not even have this episode out at all! Hooray for Garry!
This is a podcast by Dan Hörning and Bernie Maopolski.
