About this episode

Donate: Buy Me A Coffee! SEASON 9: ARCHITECTS OF STABILITYEPISODE 214: A Most Convenient ArrowIf a king falls in a forest and no one is around to witness it…was it an assassination or the most convenient stroke of luck in English history? Join us as we follow the final hunt of William Rufus, sift through the earliest medieval accounts, separate centuries of legend from contemporary evidence, and uncover how a single arrow changed the course of England forever. ALSO, I tried a few things on this episode in the editing phase, so I’m eager to hear your thoughts? Should the sounds and sound effects be continued, or is the show good without them?
