Someone tell Dustin to shut up about Philip V... but only after listening to this awesome episode about losing a war, being a good/bad friend, and your kids literally annoying you to death. Oh, and somehow elephants show up again.    More from the Alexander Standard

We felt a little wacky this episode, and we're sticking to it. We learn how loud our cat drinks water, lots of familiar people die, and we have a revelation about Game of Thrones! Oh yeah, and stuff about Philip V. This episode is brought to you by sleep deprivation!

Rule number one: When the Aetolians agree to a peace treaty, it means they are getting ready to declare war again. In other news, the scion of the House of Antigonos has appeared, on whom the fate of Macedon rests! And all he has to do is not to make friends with the wrong people. Come hear the tale of Philip V!

It’s not Demetrius II’s fault that his dad handed him a time bomb. It’s not his fault we can’t figure out which cousin he married. It’s not his fault! But it IS his episode!

It's curtains for old Antigonos Gonatas in his finale episode. Meredith's jet lag leads to interesting new historical takes such as can the Ptlomey dynasty swim? A general gets some digestive issues and so much more!

Antigonos Gonatas plays all the hits you’ve heard before: kings abandoned by armies, uncomfortable marriages, and Athens and Sparta being stupid. Oh and an elephant plays with a baby (no one dies… promise).
