Caesar realises that he has to go to Spain in person to deal with Pompey’s two brat sons – Cnaeus and Sextus – and his old bottom bitch Labienus. It quickly turns into a bloody and brutal affair – people are getting slaughtered, beheaded, crucified – and that’s just the people that Ray works with!

June 26, 2015 Julius Caesar #39 – Caesar’s Reforms
As dictator, Julius Caesar initiates a sweeping range of political and social reforms that even his enemies have to concede make a lot of sense, including a colonisation program, reforming the grain dole, building a great library, and reforming the calendar.

June 25, 2015 #18 – Battle of the Granicus River - Life Of Alexander The Great
In this exciting episode, we see Alexander engage the Persians for the first time! We also talk about Persian religion, Zoroastrianism, and talk a little about the achievements and history of the Persian empire.

June 19, 2015 Julius Caesar #38 – It’s Business Time
Even while the Greatest Party Ever™ is going on, Caesar is getting down to the business of changing the way Rome works – forever. He’s rewarding his supporters with positions in the Senate, forgiving more of his enemies, creating new settlements in far off lands.. And we talk about lesbians.

May 08, 2015 #14 – The Death Of A King - Life Of Alexander The Great
After six long months and 14 episodes we finally end Chapter One of our series with Philip II's assassination. It's one of the craziest stories you'll ever hear. We know who did it but we'll never really know why or who put him up to it – if anyone. It involves a homosexual dalliance and gang rape. In this episode we also have babies burned alive, a forced suicide, a crucifixion, a warning about chopping of dicks and a really awful country song. WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR!?
