The actual history part of this podcast is great. I only gave four starts instead of five because of the woketard land acknowledgments at the end of every episode and the one super-cringe episode on the Cataline Conspiracy where they try to draw a comparison to American politics. That episode was trash, and the numerous basic factual errors on American politics and political events should embarrass everyone involved.
Hosts always dive into the sources and provides view points that are not always elaborated on. If you want an accurate overview of ancient Roman history and alternative understanding of history this is a great podcast. I love this podcast and listen every time I see a new episode.
