On this historic (and historical) episode of the NoZone Layer, Major’s sister joins the discussion as we take a look at some of the strangest, most unhinged, and otherwise off-kilter monarchs throughout the ages. We explore the antics of such personages as a king who believed himself to be made of glass, to a ruler who stole Winston Churchill’s pocketwatch, to a dictator who had a bad habit of throwing his enemies out of helicopters. And they say it’s no fun being king! Also featured are our own fictional kingdoms and how we would rule them, scary Halloween costumes for adults with real life worries, and what kind of musical playlist would be appropriate for an orgy.
