Beneath the velvet cloak of a Renaissance night, stars witness the whispers of the Age of Discovery, where new paths unfurl on seas less known. In the hush of late 15th century Europe, we find ourselves drifting on the tide of Vasco da Gamas monumental journey—a voyage fueled by the mingled scents of distant spices and the heavy breath of navigational charts. Here, amid the gentle cradle of ocean waves, we explore the delicate dance of ambition and alliance, where each ripple and each gust of wind bears the weight of future continents. As our minds sail across these quiet, moonlit waters, may we find tranquility in the immense unknown that reshaped our world. This episode is hosted by Ashley Johnson.
