Ancient History Fangirl: How an Empire Ends, Rome's Gothic Immigrants
An episode of Ancient History Fangirl. One that I, Liv, really want you all to hear. This story isn’t just about Goths that lived outside Rome. It’s also about the Goths that lived inside the Empire—as everything from slaves to soldiers to free citizens. How they were treated within that empire fueled and fed the wheel of the Migration era. Hatred of immigrants played a major role in Migration-Era conflicts–in ways scarily similar to events today. Get the show notes here. Listen to all the episode on How An Empire Ends via this Spotify playlist. Find more from Ancient History Fangirl here. Find more information on Jenny's novel which is featured at the end (and is an amazing romance novel featuring the dying Roman Empire as the Big Bad).

Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! | Greek Mythology & the Ancient Mediterranean
The most entertaining and enraging stories from 'Classical' mythology (and, often, ancient history of the wider Mediterranean!) told casually, contemporarily, and (more often than not) sarcastically. The world of Greek mythology and the history of the wider ancient Mediterranean is full of wonder, horror, and utter hilarity. These myths and stories are timeless for a reason, they're just as relevant today as they were 2500+ years ago. With over 700 episodes and counting, we dive deep into the realm of gods, goddesses, heroes, monsters, and everything in between.
Regular episodes every Tuesday, conversations with authors and scholars or readings of ancient epics every Friday. LTAMB: The Oracle Edition has ad-free episodes and so much more. Learn more about the podcast, and Liv's work, including her book Greek Mythology: the Gods, Goddess, and Heroes Handbook at mythsbaby.com.
