The Man Behind the Sword

from Imaginary Worlds · host Eric Molinsky | Daylight Media

Conan the Barbarian is generally thought of as a muscle-bound brute who fights his way through a made-up ancient world. But the character actually has a deep, rich history. I talk with experts Rusty Burke, David C. Smith, Jeffrey Shanks, Jonas Prida, and Nicole Emmelhainz about why Conan the Barbarian is more relevant than ever, and how the character's journey reflects the author Robert E. Howard's real life struggles.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
