When you think of the persecution of the Christians in the early church, it doesn't take long for the mind to naturally think of the Colosseum.

Join us as Tommy leads us through a rabbit trail for the ages.
Also, the guys discuss what brands they're wearing (weird, I know), and whether or not martyrdom by lion would have been preferable or not.
