About this episode
Finally, the wait is over- part two on the Inca is here! Kelsey leaves the Andes behind (not too far behind), and details the the rise of the Incan Empire, from a tribe of 10,000 to a mighty empire of 12 million. Then, Mike explains why the only thing spookier than being in an insane asylum, is being on a boat with the shortest straw.Show references:
