I've been digging this history podcast

I was never really into history in school, but I have been finding this podcast really great!  Really interesting.  He tells multiple sides of the same story.

I really enjoy this show.  I listen while my long commute to work.  The drive flies by.  The six 3hr long Death Throws of the Republic (Roman Empire)  shows are a fascinating parallel to things we see in the US today.
