“I really wanted to like this podcast since I am fascinated by this time period and The Romans. The use of fictional characters to layout the history is so unnecessary and mundane, it completely distracts from significant events. I found myself trying to follow the characters and conceptualize his discriptions rather than focus on all of the moving parts during this time period. In addition, the author often stumbles and stammers his way thru the narration, and throws academic jabs at what I surmise are his doubting peers. It just dragged on and on to the point of exhaustion. By the 4th episode I had to jump off. This history can be very exciting, and by not focusing on the emperors and politicians points of view, I found myself lost in the daily activities of people - what they wore, how they lived. This was interesting, but not for this series. That is more a study in culture versus the overall socioeconomic/political conditions that shredded this dynasty. I would give this one a hard pass.”
