S4 Ep1: Loremen S4 Ep 1 - William Adams, The First Englishman in Japan Part 2

<div>It's season four of Loremen! It's 4oremen. 4men? Either way, we're one man short of opening a profitable burger chain. And it's time for William Adams 2: The Secret of the Ooze.<br> <br> The first Englishman in Japan is starting to get comfortable in his new home/prison, but he is about to run into Jesuits, the East India Company and a particularly unpleasant maritime pornographer. Prepare yourself for a tale of hubris, smooth-talkers and a very rude misreading of 'Three Mile Island'.<br> <br> For a more fulsome (and less silly) telling of the story, James's main source for this episode was Giles Milton's wonderful book, <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/411477.Samurai_William">Samurai William</a>. <br> <br> <em>Content Warning: No new willies are pulled off in this episode.
