    Can you believe there's been another 100 Fan of History episodes since the last time we did this! Take a stroll back in podcast time through the past 100 episodes with Dan and Bernie as they reminisce:


    Ashurbanipal the OG Assyrian emperor, Dugdamus the Demon King, Nebuchadnezzar nemesis of the Jews, Cyrus the Freaking Great.... and no episode would be complete without good ole GYGES!

    Detail and fun like you will only get at Fan of History from Dan the Rome Man.


    This really is an amazing episode... so many wild things happen!


    Unlike some other leaders in our day who bow out gracefully - ahem - our guy gets thrown down the steps. And that's just the beginning of his problems.


    And then we have all the good Roman names like

    Tarquinius Superbus

    Servius Tullis

    Biggus Dickus


    I mean come on, where are you going to get all this??


    And just when you think you've heard it all... you haven't when the world's best salesperson shows up.


    Listen all the way to the end and enjoy!

  • What´s new in history - The Atlantis Puzzle with Jack Kelley
    Jul 16 2024

    Unlock the secrets of Plato’s final legacy… the real story of the Atlantis myth.


    Jack Kelley is a film maker, classicist, and seeker of the truth. And "by GEORGE" it looks like he found it! Jack tells Bernie about the just released documentary "The Atlantis Puzzle"... how it came to be and how his serendipitous reading on a vacation to Greece led to this amazing revelation.


    I was fascinated by our conversation and even more so by the documentary! Check out our discussion here and the film in the links below.
