Introduction

This week i'm going to recommend a new book that i haven't had a chance to read yet, since it just came out. The poison king, the life and legend of mithridates, rome's deadliest enemy, by adrian mayor,. A biography of the man who vexed romans from sulla to pompey, and just kept popping back up every time they thought he was finished. This week's episode is brought to you by audible.
