 Ep 36 - Subhadra Wins Over Draupadi

    Arjun races towards Indraprasth after abducting Subhadra. Balram realized it was Arjun and he was angry. He ordered his army to get ready to go to Indraprasth and destroy the Pandavas. Krishna stopped him and convinced him not to. Balram changed his mind after Krishna told him that Subhadra and Arjun loved each other. Arjun arrived and his brothers were filled with joy. Arjun went to greet Draupadi but she gave him the cold shoulder. Draupadi ended up liking Subhadra. She consented to her marriage to Arjun. Marriage preparations began. 


Ep 37 - Birth of Abhimanyu

    Everyone in the town attended the wedding. Subhadra announced that she was pregnant with Arjun's baby. Arjun would take Subhadra on walks during her pregnancy. He would tell her stories of being in battle and all of his accomplishments. The unborn child was listening as well. He once was telling her about the procedure for entering and escaping the Chakravyuh. Before he could get to the final step, she fell asleep.

Introduction to Jacob the Entrepreneur

 My name is Jacob and I am a Sophomore majoring in Economics. I'm from the Texas Hill country (a place called Bulverde, just north of San Antonio) however I was born in El Paso. Despite growing up near both the University of Texas and Texas A&M, I am actually a lifelong OU fan. My parents and grandparents were all fans of either of the other two schools, but I held my ground.

Growing up, I had always been very close to my Dad and I looked up to him in many ways. He was a very hard worker and an entrepreneur. His most successful business was, and is, a custom home company named J Taylor Custom Homes, named after me (also check us out at JTaylorCustomHomes.com ). As I ...

Ep 48 - Krishna Meets the Pandavas          News about the defeat of the Pandavas in the gambling match made it to Krishna. He left to meet the Pandavas in the forest. He was upset that he hadn't been available to help the Pandavas because he was protecting Dwarka. Krishna urged the Pandavas to fight the Kauravas and take back their kingdom. They did not agree.      The reason Krishna was not able to be there for the Pandavas is that Dwarka was being attacked by King Shalva. Krishna ended the war when he used his Sudarshan Chakra to decapitate Shalva.  Ep 49 - Arjun Receives Shiva's Weapon     Krishna blesses the Pandavas and promises his allegiance. The Pandavas were struggling with little resources. Many sages came and gave them knowledge while living in the forest. Ved Vyasa came to visit the Pandavas. He told Arjun that he needed to acquire Indra's and Shiva's celestial weapons in order to win the war. Arjun left for the Himalay...
