How often do actual Romans think about the Roman Empire? You probably saw the recent Tik Tok trend, in which women from around the world asked their male partners how often they thought about the Roman Empire. The results were surprising, with a lot more ancient Roman contemplation than the askers expected. We decided to ask Tiffany's husband Claudio, who has lived in Rome his entire life and works in a place full of ancient Roman art and artifacts, just how often he thinks about the Roman Empire. And Tiffany weighs in as well. Listen in for one of the first (if not the only) ever appearances from Claudio! ------------------------------------- ADVERTISE WITH US: Reach expats, future expats, and travelers all over the world.
