“Hands down, this is my favorite podcast I’ve ever listened to! Mike Duncan manages to guide the listener through the entire history of Rome, the kingdom, to the republic, to the principet, and finally to the slow and steady decline. I knew almost nothing about Rome before listening to this podcast, but now I am reading Gibbon and writing papers on Rome. Mike Duncan breaks down the complicated events into bite size chunks, going on fun detours along the way. In terms of age, I listened to this podcast when I was 11 and 12 with my mom, and I followed along just fine, only pausing here and there for some vocabulary questions. I highly recommend this to anyone with the slightest interest in history. I also recommend Mike Duncan’s book, The Storm before the Storm, a wonderful book about the early decline of the Roman Republic, This podcast is truly a masterpiece, and I recommend it to everyone I come across.”

“The authors discipled prose drives the points home. Doesn't waste the podcasters time by inundating the reader with trivial facts. One of the best podcasts out there.”Read full review »
