Dr. Jeremy J. Swist, a lecturer in Classics at Brandeis University, joins Lexie to discuss why Classicists only tend to be on Twitter, turning his love of metal music into a career in classics, and whether the age of streaming will help produce more music, literature, and art that will leave a lasting cultural legacy. So tuck in your togas and hop aboard Trireme Transit for this week’s exciting odyssey! Don't forget to follow us on Twitter, Facebook & Instagram or visit our website www.theozymandiasproject.com!
