A Worthy Successor to The History of Rome.

What is most interesting about this podcast is gaining a handle on all the changes in both the circumstances and how the ruling classes (in power, out of power and seeking power) react, sometimes setting other changes into action. From being the salvageable portion of The Roman Empire to the eastern bulwark against advancing Islam in Europe to a city-state plus a couple self-ruling areas, we watch as an Empire becomes just another set of nations before its final fall (as of this review we're not at the fall yet, but we're within viewing distance of Constantinople's fall).
Entertaining and Engaging

Came here after finishing The History of Rome. Every bit as good as its predecessor.
Well done,but…

Done in the style of Mike Duncan, someone the Narrator obviously strives to emulate. Well done. Although more than enjoyable as is, it would have been better if Robin would have covered all the events within a time period (he has events sectioned mostly by century), rather than jumping back and forth in time. Completely ruins any hope for continuity. It is great to hear History that one would only learn if they majored in it in upper level University classes. Also there are a lot of informative interviews layered between the narrative. I am just now starting this podcast twelve years after its start and it is still ongoing. Strongly suggest backing up to the beginning and trying to listen in some semblance of chronological order. I found it helpful to set aside all the many interviews for later listening. There is also bonus content pertinent to the overall narrative that is now only available on Patreon, behind a paywall. Happy listening and thanks to Robin for the content.
