THE REIGN OF GENGHIS KHAN: WHO IS TO BLA...

The Alarmist
About this episode

Who’s to blame for the Reign of Genghis Khan?

This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) welcomes comedian and actor Dusty Warren to discuss the brutal and bloody reign of Genghis Khan through his expansion of the Mongolian Empire; the largest empire in world history. Was Khan driven by an irrational thirst for revenge? Did the earth's climate have something to do with it? Perhaps his obsession with self preservation will take the fall. Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early join the efforts to conquer this behemoth.
