This week, Aaron and Leyla traverse back in time and sideways in dimensions to talk about Netflix's historical fiction anime miniseries, Yasuke! We talk about wanting to be hooked, frustrating Russian mercenaries, make odd comparisons to children's properties, and think about how we'd like to immortalize local-to-us historical figures.
Also, it's newsletter time! Make sure you sign up for our personal recs and additional opinions.
