Enjoyed this recent podcast. I’ve been listening since near the beginning and I much prefer the older history topics. Greece, Troy, the Mongols, ancient China, Rome etc. Keep up the good work
Thanks Mike! I’m a big fan of the ancient topics too – lots of good material. Glad you’re enjoying the show!
hey guys
where is this cgp grey video about naming conventions? cant track it down for some reasons š
Hey JP,
I actually put a link in the show notes for the episode (it’s a separate post from this one). You can find the video here, though!
Hi, Adam! Iām a new listener making my way from episode #1 and just wanted to say that you have a great podcast here! Ancient Rome (specifically the early Roman Empire) has been my favorite topic in history for years so I was glad to see this episode pop up. I finished Mike Duncanās āHistory of Romeā podcast recently (which, as you joked about in the beginning of this episode, is a ridiculously long series that stretched from 754 BCE to 476 CE) and your episode has been a refreshing perspective from the conqueroreeās side. Thanks for providing fascinating content!
Hey, so glad to hear you’re enjoying the show! I’m a huge fan of Mike’s work, so it’s always flattering to be mentioned alongside him.
