The podcast series has ambitions to cover aspects of Mediterranean history from the earliest times to the 1770s. It is run by a Canadian journalist and writer, Andrew Schiestel, and currently features podcasts on the Titans, Hittites, Hieroglyphs, Phoenicians, Mycenaeans, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Fall of the Roman Republic (Richard’s contribution), with plans for much, much more to come.
