The Podcast History Of Our World Podcast
1) 070 - Legends of the Roman Kings
Why legends? Because the first four kings of Rome have no historical corroborating evidence! I mean, they probably existed...seems like an awful lot of detail for supposedly fictional people...but we'...Show More
2) 072 - Tarquins & Republicans
The original title was going to be Tarquin and the Roman Republic, but I'm saving that in case I ever start a synthpop group. But anyways, it really is the Roman Republic! We made it, although in all ...Show More
3) 071 - Downfall of the Roman Kingdom
It's not a podcasting mirage - it really is a new episode! And it's a long'un to make up for all the time we've been apart. So what do you say? Ready to come back to Rome? Sure you are!

8) 065 - Carthage vs. Syracuse
The confrontation between the Hellenic and the Punic world was inevitable, but the battleground would be Sicily, a land quite near and dear to me! It's here that the balance of power would sway back a...Show More
9) 064 - Carthage

10) 063 - The Qin Dynasty
King Zheng is all fired up to take on...well, pretty much everybody else! And in this episode we'll take a look at the short but important dynasty he founded. Then it's time to say goodbye for now to ...Show More
