37 (Fixed!) - The Great Traveler (Complete) - a podcast by David DiMeo

UPDATE: This episode is now complete! It was partially cut off when it was originally published.  Sorry for the inconvenience.

Moroccan born Ibn Battuta traveled over 75,000 miles, to 44 countries in the 14th century, greatly exceeding the record of any European traveler.  Yet he was not an explorer by profession; he was an Islamic jurist who traveled the length and breadth of the Muslim world on business, serving as a soldier in Spain, judge in India and ambassador to China.  Ibn Battuta was a man of his times and his life reflects what was possible in the Muslim world of his day.
