Ep. 44: The Great Dying

In this episode we take a step away from the narrative to discuss how diseases brought to the Americas from overseas impacted the native population. Spoiler: it was very bad. This is one of the first impacts of colonialism that the Inca felt and no matter who you were, it had an impact on you.
