I have been searching for interesting audio content on Byzantium for a while and I am so happy I stumbled on this podcast. Robin has a wonderful voice and knows exactly when to remain neutral and when to be expressive. This podcast is phenomenal and well worth the listen!

The History I've Been Searching for

I have listened since the beginning and a few times through since. a monumental work on Robin's part over 200 episodes and counting.
This is the story of the Roman Empire the wouldn't teach in school. After Rome was "lost" to barbarians, after Ravenna was "lost" to the barbarians--the Empire of the Romans lived on for 1000 years! who did Charlamagne think he was? why wasn't Islam able to convert old Europe? why does Moscow call itself the "3rd Rome?"
The answer to these questions is the same and you'll find out in this podcast. Robin does a great job--so subscribe already. And thank you Mr. Pearson for finishing the Amazing story of the Roman Empire and sharing it with us.

A great story well told about the lateRoman Empire
