Scorz Solo ,

Why should you listen to this podcast?

Did you know that Septimus Severus sounded like Sean Connery? Did you know that Claudius had a pet rock? Did you know that Vespasian had a Vespa? If not, then, this is the podcast for you. As the hosts say themselves, this is the História Augusta of Roman history podcasts. It is funny and informative in a way I had not experienced before in a podcast. Great job guys. I am only up to Getta, and am enjoying the podcast immensely.

My favorite podcast ever. I love Roman Emperors and there stories.Mice Duncan’s history of Rome is good, but it doesn’t go into detail on the emperors life’s, it also doesn’t cover the byzantines. You guys are also so funny. Thank you for doing this podcast.

I also think you should the Ottoman Sultans next.

Ancient History via The Yellow Submarine

Recently discovered this very informative, accessible and humorous podcast. As an American puts me in the mind of Roman History considered by a couple of The Beatles.
