Italian History at its Finest
If you’re a history buff, this man is worth the listen. He’s incredibly articulate and highly knowledgeable. You will definitely learn something from each podcast.
Thank you for starting a Podcast series Rocky — I’m looking forward to each new episode.
Among the Very Best
Rocky is a god amongst mortals when it comes to storytelling. He takes topics daunting to most people, High Renaissance art, antiquity history, and makes them digestible and approachable for anyone. I’ve learned more from his lectures and podcasts than any single professor I’ve ever had. Bravo, Rocky.
The Art of Storytelling
No one brings the Renaissance to life better than Rocky. You will feel like you are having a conversation with your best friend. He transports you into Italian history in a way that is fun, comfortable and relevant. I have the privilege of knowing him and his work and I promise you will never enjoy learning more than with Rocky as your teacher. Just like the Coliseum, the Pantheon and the Duomo he is a treasure. Do yourself a favor and immerse yourself in this delightful journey through amazing storytelling.
