For starters
A suprisingly informative and well researched history podcast. This is especially true since one of the two hosts is a drunk who apparently does no research, and the other is some kind of 9/11 truther from New Zealand or something. Seriously though, the Napolean podcast was the podcast that got me into history podcasts. In fact after history of rome I wasn't seeing anything particularly interesting and went back to re-listen to Napolean. It was there that I saw the announcement of Life of Ceasar. Life of Ceasar started a bit dry, but after a few episodes it transformed into the foul mouthed, free form, juggernaut that makes it required listening. Ceasar and Alexander are well researched history shows, where the hosts riff on a topic by drawing out modern parallels. The best bits are the re-enactments, where we see the world through the eyes of what is very often just an average joe, trying to cope with the abdurdity of the situation unfolding around him. We caught whiffs of this sardonic take on the ancient world in History of Rome, but Ray and Cam have taken it to whole new level. They haven't created another history podcast, they have redefined the genre. It is worth both your time, and your money. Looking forward to Augustus.Read full review »

Never before has the tantalizing tale of the Great Alexander been told with such panache and hilarity! Ray and Cam should teach history in school. Couldn't stop laughing as Cam referred to Alexander and said - "This guys is insane!". Seriously guys - have learnt more in your podcasts than years...Read full review »
