As a historical researcher, one the coolest things that can happen is to start looking into a story, and then have it take twists and turns you didn't expect.

Visiting Colonial Williamsburg this weekend. Walked into the Old Gaol and I instantly recognized it.
I swore scenes with the imprisoned Boston Massacre soldiers had been filmed there.
I was correct.

People are losing the spirits of the Ides of March. It’s not just about stabbing. It’s about coming together to stab in groups.
The original political thriller dropped in 44 BCE.
Power struggles. Betrayal. A very bad day for Julius Caesar.
Later adapted by William Shakespeare in Julius Caesar.

How often do YOU think about the Roman Empire? 🏛️⚔️ (Be honest.) Whether it's daily or just occasionally, these podcasts will feed that obsession HARD. From gladiators to emperors to epic betrayals, history has never sounded this good. 🎙️

Fun fact: Trump’s grandfather was kicked out of Germany when he returned after making money as a brothel owner in Seattle and the Yukon Territory. That’s why he ended up in NYC. #historynerd
