AVSEPod Episode 118: Hercules The Legendary Journeys - "A Star to Guide Them"

Christmas coverage continues this week as David and Austin, like a pair of hunky wandering Greek heroes, discuss an episode of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys in which the title character participates in a thinly-veiled riff on the Nativity Story and seemingly witnesses the birth of Jesus. Join them as they try to figure out exactly how that's possible for a character from a time that was once referred to as "Before Christ", do their best to get cancelled without Carolyn's help, and marvel at Hercules' ability to travel around Greece (?) without any stuff.
