The local arabs had been oppressed by the Ottoman Turkish... they were peasants for the most part.

Listen to the MartyrMade podcast.

Darryl Cooper will give you the non-Woke story.

Before we have to give you your Katana.
All good D&D Players from 1st. edition (Oriental Adventure) on should know that the Wakizashi is the blade for seppuku.
The katana, the longer blade of the Daishō, is for combat only.

I will have to pause recording

Got a massage appointment with my therapist.

Cathy and I see the same chick.

I think she's hot for both of us.


She took Cathy to her first pole dancing lesson and recommended Rise-Up Strip-Down on Netflix...

These were the sexy jews of their age.

And even that got dicey.
I’d love to watch someone explain how Israel has improved the lives of the local Arab population. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
depends which Arabs

the local Bedouin & Druze rejected Arab Nationalism and side with Israel against the Palestinian self identifying Arabs
The Bedouin I met in the Sinai said they were treated better during the Israeli occupation. They said they were allowed to get on with their business without interference whereas the Egyptians under Nasser were all up in their grill.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Careful or they will revoke your Woke card and you will lose your juggling pension.

Katana is a style of sword, based on the curvature of the blade

originally it the Samurai swords had a different curve, it was called a Tachi, paired with a knife called a Tanto

when they switched to the new swords, called Katana, it was two Katanas that they carried

Wakiizashi is short for Wakizashi No Katana, which basically translates into American as "Side Arm"

that actually was the main fighting sword, because it was for close quarters and indoors

the long Katana is like the battle sword, used when you were in full on battle, often from horseback

Lots of listener questions coming in.

Courtney from North Bay wants to know “Why two Katanas?”

They wielded two long battle swords at the same time?

to really translate it into Americanese, change them into guns

Katana is like saying "Rifle"

Wakasashi is "Carbine"

they are the same, except the long one is for battle, the short one is for self protection
