Absolutely amazing! I wish there was more! It ended on such an awful/amazing cliffhanger, I desperately want to know what’s next but it also gives off that amazing sense of eagerness and excitement ya know? Amazing show, 10/10 recommend.

Absolutely hilarious. The voice acting is phenomenal.

Yay!

I learned about this podcast three days ago and I have almost caught up! I love this so much. Great voice actors, great writing, and so much more. I’m so glad I found y’all and I’m only a little disappointed that I know have to wait for new episodes. Thank you!

Hilarious writing, great acting, wonderful sound effects. Just a perfect podcast. Love the story & the modern British slang in context of a historical story is just the icing on the cake!!

First, think of all the great sword-and-sandal epics: Spartacus, Antony and Cleopatra, and so on. Then think of classic comedies like A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum and Up Pompei. Now think of classical skullduggery in the mode of I, Claudius. Add an alternate history where things happen just a little bit differently. Even…queerly. Add some of the best writing, voice acting, and sound production you've ever heard in a podcast...and pirates. Now stir. I love it.

As a Wooden Overcoats aficionado, I am DELIGHTED by this new show from the same creator. I’m a few episodes in, and can’t wait to listen to the rest and see where it goes. Vivid characters, laugh out loud jokes, and classic sitcom silliness - all expertly delivered. Give this a listen!

This series is super fun - it is incredibly difficult to make the ancient world come alive, but Barnes and the team have done n excellent job with this podcast. I am constantly smiling at the repartee, wincing at Octavian being a nervous wreck, and wrinkling my nose at Marc Anthony pissing himself. Quite good.

Honestly, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect going in, but this podcast has been amazing! The actors are talented, there’s quality audio, and the premise and execution is hilarious! I can’t think of anything to be desired from this show! Great job RQ, hope Cry Havoc continues and grows!
