Alexander the Great Episode Summary

The most celebrated talkshow host of our time (according to his publicist) Kennardley Talkstraight takes on interviewing some of history's most famous figures.

In our first episode of the 1st season, Kennardley interviews Alexander the Great on his becoming King of Macedon (Alexander prefers being referred to as "Captain"), his many battles (away games), and building an empire (going on tour with the team) that encompassed most of the ancient world (The World Cup), right up until his death (retiring as captain).

Join Kennardley in this educational, slightly tongue in cheek, but generally factual account of one of history's greatest military leaders.
