There’s been a conspiracy… in Macedon! Ever wonder what it would look like if Dustin got WAY out of control while researching? This episode.

Come witness the dumbest rivalry in ancient history! More from the Alexander Standard Sources Patreon Blue Sky Facebook Instagram Twitter Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

Remember the puppy with the flamethrower looking for a home that he could burn down? Well he’s all grown up, found a place to call home, and he still has the flamethrower. Everything in Macedon is just fine… Hi, Ptolemy Keraunos! Sources Patreon Blue Sky Facebook Instagram Twitter Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com
Imagine a puppy. Now give it a flame thrower. Now kick the puppy out into the cold night and tell it that anything flammable is the reason it has no family. That is Ptolemy Keraunos. Have a nice day. Sources Patreon Blue Sky Facebook Instagram Twitter Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com
