I have listened to various iterations of Cam’s podcasts since the Napoleon days and his preparation for each episode never fails to impress. It is because of the preparation done for each episode that these two can have a seemingly casual conversation that is so info packed. Highly recommended.

So many years of listening to this podcast for it to end. :( I seriously funny, enlightening podcast by a free thinker and Ray. Unashamedly brutally honest, seems a very down to earth, realistic point of view that often disagrees with the popular opinion. I could go on. But with the British stiff...Read full review »

Thank you Ray and Cam for the last 9 years! What a journey, I have loved every minute of it and you had me laughing so many times along the way. I am a massive fan of your work, which has greatly increased my love of history. Again, thank you both - what a perfect podcasting duo!

Can’t Understand Needing To Always Swear. Seems Bogans Instinctively Try Causing Hurt. Being Acrostic Lessens Listenability Significantly. Pure Evil - Nevertheless I’ll Subscribe.

The co host literally ruins what is great show minus the ignorance of corny comments his background annoying contribution. Get rid of him

This is the perfect mix of informative and entertaining. The podcast has two presenters, Ray and Cam. This chemistry of this unlikely duo is surprising. Without Cam, it would not have the depth of content. Without Ray, Cam would be insufferable. Together, they are gold and I love them both.

I just found this podcast, and I've got to say, I love humor and I love Roman History...and you guys knock them both out of the park. This is solid gold. Keep it upRead full review »

Often history feels like a lecture, this one feels like you're with friends having a beer talking about history with all the additives provided to a conversation by alcohol. This is an hour spent learning and at the same time, not taking yourself too seriously. Thanks for the great time guys.Read full review »

I’ve been listening to this podcast for years and I’ve never seen/heard it’s equal. Fantastic job guys!

I’ve listened to all of Ray and Cam’s fabulous podcasts and it’s been a great journey. Life Of Caesar was their first collaboration and you get to share in their blossoming friendship and boy is there a lot of man love going on here! It’s fun to hear them pushing the limits with the ever charming...Read full review »

I've listened to this podcast for the last 4 years starting with Augustus, the knowledge and humor is unmatched in my opinion for a podcast. I just recently joined their Julius Caesar premium podcast and couldn't be happier. Having the prior knowledge of ray & cams Vegas trip,...Read full review »

I started with the newer shows as the world shut down around us and then decided to go for it and pay to hear the whole series, which is worth it if only to wait till Ep 55 (Augustus) for the first time DiAngelo entered our lives. It is the perfect show to listen to during the pandemic as even...Read full review »

Unparalleled. One of my favorite podcasts.
NeroCaligulaCesar via Apple Podcasts · Japan · 02/13/21
I really want to like this series. The hosts are clearly knowledgeable and personable. Just the childish banter and completely inappropriate and unnecessary conversations interspersed with the actual historical content is too much and painful. I tried really hard but gave up. Such a shame.
Mpozniak via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/30/20
Cameron and Ray bounce great off each other. Definitely need a podcast dedicated just for Julius Ceasar. There's absolutely no two better people to deliver this story. 5 stars!Read full review »
CharZhao via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/16/20
Just finished Claudius #11, where at the beginning - after Cam survives a big fall his 50th - they commiserate about not being invited to podcast conventions, concluding that they are too good for them. I agree! For a great, alternate take on the history here, listen in. They make you think...Read full review »

SIMPLY THE BEST… at explaining and entertaining and really digging into Roman leadership. Awesome research and engaging humour and relevancy to present times. BETTER THAN ALL THE REST… except of course Dan Carlin and Mike Duncan. BETTER THAN ANYONE… at adding dick jokes without being...Read full review »

Fk me originally I was going to leave a review when I caught up to the series so I could hear my review live, I’ve been listening the series for the last 3 months non-stop then I finished the original julie series and then I bit the bullet and went back to listen to the Alexander series so I...Read full review »

Finally onto Claudius!
imperaror caesar via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/12/20
If you like your history dry and dull, this is not for you! Rather hosts Ray and Cam weave a well researched and often hilarious narrative about the life and times of each of the Caesars starting with Big Julie. Do yourself a favour and give it a listen!
Jason Behzadian via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/01/20
This is what happens when Something about Mary Meets Mary Beard –– I've been listening to this dynamic duo for years -- and can attest they make up for the butchering of Latin and bad jokes with Cam's music queued up and contemporary commentary interspersed with 1970s & 80s sitcom...Read full review »
@IrreverentItaly via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/30/20
I never would’ve thought that ancient history could be interesting. Now I listen to 2-3 hours of Roman history a day as I commute to and from work. I’m still catching up but I’m already looking forward to Cam and Ray’s other podcasts. Cam and Ray are so good they even pop into your head at...Read full review »

Been listening since 2014 and can’t recommend it enough
Clasesdeingles via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/23/20
If your high school teacher had told you the real story they would have been fired. Well lucky you, now you have Ray and Cam. Don’t blow this chance, listen to the pod and support them
jodakathedude via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/03/20
You two are a couple of clowns who need to rent a room somewhere in the middle (maybe hawaii) and bugger each other and get it over with. But aside from that...love the podcast. Keep up tue great work, fellas.
Saganthony via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/28/20
Cam and Ray (my favourite car companions) bring along some interesting passengers, some of them more willing then others. For instance, they bring along Marius and Sulla, giving you more insights in why pulling a Sulla is a funny thing. I remember a guy J.C.: huge balls, likes circumventions,...Read full review »
Steven Vanhoutte via Apple Podcasts · Belgium · 01/25/20
Cam and Ray spend the first 10/15 minutes of each episode promoting their merchandise. The hosts frequently bring their own political views into the podcast and often crack dumb jokes. Monotoned Ray will put you to sleep, and Cam will intentionally mispronounce the names of historical figures to...Read full review »

I’m interested in both ancient history and I listen to a lot of podcasts while I’m at work so it’s obvious why I binge listen to this dynamic and fun show! Great job guys! Love from Texas!

Really, really bad
Sup!369 via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 11/27/19
Painful to listen to grown men trying to be 14 year old boys. It gets in the way of the information their tryin to impart. Unsubscribing immediately.
imt270 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/26/19
Terrible, condescending, abusive, uninformative, sexist, off topic, meandering etc WOULD ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND!!! :p
joexnz via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/22/19
The constant homophobic spurious comments is completely unacceptable. But worse, is the amount of times they really get things wrong, or just guess at what something means, often thru some twisted modern lens. Twisted? Yes, they are homophobic and misogynistic in their comments (the juvenile and...Read full review »

Thanks to Cam and Ray’s humour and chill attitudes, I’m now learning more than ever about ancient history, as usually I prefer more recent eras but they make it enjoyable whilst also genuinely educational and in-depth.
N0H1570ry via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/01/19
Having heard this double act since they made their mark with the original Julius Caius Ceasar, I dread to think how far this will go having such a twisted subject matter. Having watched ‘ I, Claudius’ inspired by these two, I can only sense Ray is Claudius to Cam’s Caligula. Only a man with a...Read full review »

Roman history with a perfect balance of nuanced analysis and dick jokes.
studibranch via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/18/19
I enjoy so much of your thoughtful research on this period in Roman history. I could, however, do without spurious insults on Christianity by Cameron. Nor do I enjoy the unsavory, puerile sexual joking around. The history is fascinating.
linbq1992 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/18/19
Just all around a good show. I listened to the first 25 episodes about the big JC in a span of 10 days and then realized you had to pay to listen to the second half. The decision was so easy and I can’t wait to listen to the next 25! Cam and Ray took me a bit to get used to and I wasn’t sure...Read full review »

This podcast has become one of my favorite history pods. These two guys are pretty good mix of fact and commentary.
Moon Tea via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/08/19
It doesn’t get any better than this. A fantastic combination of information and fun. Not many people have the skills to entrain like these two silly buggers do about Ancient Roman history.

trishfromoldham via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/12/19
I have been a long-time listener of the show dating back to the early days of Julius Caesar and have prized it since its inception. The podcast is well-researched, offers thought-provoking insight, and is down-right hilarious. Although I am writing this review for the Life of Caesars, currently...Read full review »

Forget the History lessons you had in school, this is how history SHOULD be....all loud, crude and rude, just like Tib-o liked it!!!! Yes, Ray & Cam joke around but that’s the hook - there’s some serious amount of research done, well by Cam anyway, and the innuendos and giggles make it sink...Read full review »

Cameron and Ray are a delight! Their knowledge, humor and care of my favorite historical figures makes this a truly...Read full review »

Very knowledgeable but also incredibly entertaining and seeing as how much i love history already the fact they can actually make it even more entertaining is no small accomplishment in my opinion
55_KingPin_55 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/15/19
I have been listening to Cam and Ray for several years now and find their mix of history and humor addictive. They manage to present a detailed exploration of ancient history intermingled with humor and the occasional hit song form the 80s. Cam’s endless ribbing of Ray over preparation for the...Read full review »

I don’t know if you guys still was the reviews anymore, I’m only about 15 episodes into the podcast right now (a bit of a late start), but I’ve been enjoying it thoroughly. In fact, this show is so exciting that I accidentally found myself going 87 mph in a 70, and before long there was a cop...Read full review »
