Episode 2 Remastered
Last time, we got up to speed on what was going on in the Near East in the centuries before the Persians showed up. What we didn't cover, was who exactly are these "Persians," and what were they doing while their future empire was being taken over by the Assyrians. This time, we figure that out as we follow some steppe nomads called the Proto-Indo-Europeans on their 3000-ish year journey to becoming the Persians.

Best podcast ever
Wen will the secret wars be available on podcast platforms? Also the history of Persia is the best.
Great podcast if you want to listen to Advertisements
