    Enjoyed this recent podcast. I’ve been listening since near the beginning and I much prefer the older history topics. Greece, Troy, the Mongols, ancient China, Rome etc. Keep up the good work

      Hey JP,

      I actually put a link in the show notes for the episode (it’s a separate post from this one). You can find the video here, though!

    Hi, Adam! Iā€™m a new listener making my way from episode #1 and just wanted to say that you have a great podcast here! Ancient Rome (specifically the early Roman Empire) has been my favorite topic in history for years so I was glad to see this episode pop up. I finished Mike Duncanā€™s ā€œHistory of Romeā€ podcast recently (which, as you joked about in the beginning of this episode, is a ridiculously long series that stretched from 754 BCE to 476 CE) and your episode has been a refreshing perspective from the conqueroreeā€™s side. Thanks for providing fascinating content!
