This Winter: the original Season 1 collection - the episodes that started it all.

Float along the resonating currents of 6th-century BCE as we visit the birthplace of the Roman Republic. In this episode, we navigate the vast sea of Rome's history, tracing its roots from beholding an Etruscan reign to the birth of democratic values. Beneath the shadows of an indomitable fortress, a fervor for justice and freedom began to sprout. Listen to the riveting tale of Lucretia's violation and the subsequent rebellion it ignited. Experience the revolutionary surge, led by Brutus, that sought to eradicate not just monarchy but the oppressive impositions it shielded on Rome's populace. From the ashes of tyrannical rule, the Phoenix-like Roman Republic emerged, uniting the city's citizens and Senate under a single democratic banner: Senatus Populusque Romanus or SPQR.
