“But some distractingly weird pronunciation. For some reason the presenter frequently replaces short vowels with long vowels, particularly in Latin words/names. Eg consistently pronouncing plebs as “plebes”, Publius as “Pooblius” etc. other Latin words/names are mispronounced or at least the stress is put in the wrong place eg Tarpian instead of Tarpeian. It’s really odd and distracts me from the narrative every time. I’m only 10 eps in so maybe he gets a handle on it over time.”
