1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Welcome to the second bonus episode from the history podcast that never was, Chris and Forest talk Japanese history (often while drinking beer). &amp;nbsp;Because the original concept was to create a seperate podcast, it should be stated that opinions expressed are their own, and do not reflect the views of anyone not present for this podcast. And with that - Regardless of whether you think of Oda Nobunaga as a hero or villain, it can't be disputed that he was a brutal tyrant responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of men, women, and children on his quest to unify Japan under his control. &amp;nbsp;Was Nobunaga simply a product of his era, or was there something more to the man who built a path towards national unification with the gilded skulls of his enemies? &amp;nbsp;We look at the life of Oda Nobunaga, and try to shed some light on his outlook and ambitions.
