| 10 - King Ottokar IV: The Restorer of Syldavia || Radio Tintin/ Anthology of Heroes | 29 May 2021 | 00:03:32 | |
This mini bonus episode is a collaboration with the podcast Anthology of Heroes, which explores the lives of the national heroes of each nation. I’m a big fan of the podcast, and considering my older brother hosts it, I thought it would be very fun to see the national hero of Hergé’s fictional nation Syldavia get the same treatment. You can find Anthology of Heroes here https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anthology-of-heroes-history/id1513571349 Music featured: The Ice Giants by Kevin MacLeod https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/5745-the-ice-giants License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ | |||
