Historical Accuracy in The Odyssey (2026) - What Was I Thinking?

This is a follow-up to the short vid I made yesterday, which in hindsight... wasn't great.

So time to "hold that L", as the zoomies say, I guess. ** Support the channel ** Help fund future videos, get bonus content and access to an exclusive Discord server:   / skallagrim      / @skallagrim   Merch: https://www.bonfire.com/store/skallswag/ If you want to join Bonfire to start selling your own merch: https://www.bonfire.com/welcome/07bb1...
