    This podcast ran from 2007 to 2012 if I recall correctly. And I just keep coming back to it. It's simply the most comprehensive and simultaneously the most easy to listen to account of Rome's history out there.
    Mike Duncan has progressed in the meantime, most notably with his excellent Revolutions podcasts and his books (which are well worth a read), but this series is just like a comfortable warm blanket of history goodness which never fails to bring a smile to my face. You can hear him get better at it as he plods along, finding more flow in his narrative, more confidence and more deadpan humor as the episodes stack up. It will remain his Magnum Opus unless he decides to up the ante even more in times to come. In Mike's own words: 'one hell of a thing'.
    And timaeus, the OP, gets a shout-out too. Not only for uploading this in good sizable chunks, but mercifully without any ads whatsoever. It's gold you found, kind internet stranger. Gold.
    It really gladdens me this is still listened to, and commented on, after all these years. This work of art deserves it.

    I love the references to Kirk Douglas and Peter Ustinov from the 1960 film "Spartacus" around 1 hour, 40 minutes in; it's one of my all-time favourites. Mike Duncan reminds me of Professor Pine at Queens College; he had quite a sense of humor and would constantly mix in film "history" with real history just to check who was paying attention.

      Meanwhile Sertorius occupyies Spain for almost a decade, embarrassing Matellus Pius and Pompey, while receiving quiet support from many in Rome. Sulla only did more damage by marching on Rome itself. It broke down every formality that generations of soldier statesmen had agreed on. After that all bets were off and murder became the most practical and the most effective poltical tool.

That dude was literally 1 step ahead of Rome, Marious and Sulla for most of that book. To say that Jagertha was "crafty" is a serious understatement. He continuously out-maneuvered, "the most formidable generals, Rome ever produced" in Marious and Sulla, at that time... Incredible book

    Sulla seems to me to be the kind of guy who just wanted to chill all along but was too politically savvy to trust he'd be left alone. I like to think he went through all of the trials and violence to secure his own security precisely because he didn't wanna deal with the shenanigans of the state.

    Thrace existed in most of modern day Bulgaria. course the ancestors of the Bulgars are still in Asia at this time as that's where the Bulgars originated from, specifically the steppes.

    there seems to be a gap in information. you never mentioned Roman conquest of Greece or Anatolia other than epirus. you didn't mention things like gladiators and cultural practices which are a big part of the history

    Maybe I missed something, I watch these while going to sleep, but why does he say the Gracchi introduced violence to the Roman political scene? All I heard him say was that Tiberius had his followers manhandle a tribune that was blocking all his legislation. It's a physical altercation, but they didn't engage in extra judicial murder. They were the victims of extra judicial murder.

      Do you understand what he said? The Gracchis physically removed a tribune that was vetoing legislation. That IS illegal violence. Someone violating the bodily autonomy of another is violence. Imagine an angry mob bursting into the American congress and dragging away a Senator so he can't be there to vote on legislation. That is physical violence, and furthermore it's physical violence employed to illegally control the outcome of the legislature. Basically a violent coup. So yes, the Gracchis introduced that kind of blatant political violence into Rome.

    This is a great series but Marius was not the father of Julius Caesar's first wife he was the husband of Julius Caesar's aunt so he was his uncle through marriage.His first wife's name was Cornelia and she was the daughter of Cornelius Cinna who was Marius' second in command of the Populare ,Julius' second wife was actually Sulla's granddaughter Pompeia.
