NYMM 24: 12 Years of Exile, Spent Praying, Travelling, and Fornicating

Send us a text

Lindsay Buck joins us to hear all about Arjuna's 12 year exile. Satish takes the opportunity to re-tell the reason for Arjuna's exile with a puppy dog twist. Lindsay's suspicions of multiple characters gives Satish room to talk about multiple variations in the story, while we also throw in some of our own.

Arjuna visits all the holy sites of ancient India, but it's not all dull walking and mediation. He also meets 'marries' and fornicates - creating whole new families while banned from visiting his first. Krishna also comes in and helps a cousin out when Arjuna can't stop thinking about Krishna's sister Subhadra. We get to tour Krishna's home of Dwaraka through Arjuna's eyes, which has some fun throwbacks to our Krishna Chronicles.
