EPISODE 25 Roman History with Mike Duncan

Oct 12, 2017
Mike Duncan, a pioneer in historical podcasting known for "History of Rome" and "Revolutions," dives deep into the allure of Roman history and its parallels with modern America. He discusses the corrupting influences that led to the fall of the Republic and the lessons we can learn today. Fascinatingly, Duncan draws connections between ancient Rome and popular shows like 'The Walking Dead' and 'Game of Thrones.' He also teases his upcoming book, 'The Storm Before the Storm,' which explores the decline of the Roman Republic.
