Roman legions are being terrified by adherents of WODE-IDEOLOGY. That's right, it's time we had a deep dive on Queen Boudicca (or Boudica, or Boudicea if you're really fruity) - leader of the Iceni tribe who rebelled against Roman rule in Britain in the 60s AD.

Milo, Phoebe and Pat get into one of the original conniving MILFs and attempt to separate the myth from the history. Simple as.

Milo, Patrick and Phoebe are back at the Suetonius. Patrick is in charge this week for Rome's first ever nepo-uncle: Claudius. Sometimes in a palace coup, you just grab the nearest uncle and make him Emperor and if you're really lucky he conquers Britain. Something like that.

Phoebe and Pat are sans-Milo this week, and having a huge amount of fun talking about teenage demigod Percy Jackson. Milo will triumphantly return next week for the Emperor Claudius.

In the 1970s Bob Guccione had a simple dream: to make a serious movie about the emperor Caligula with Malcolm McDowell, Helen Mirren, John Gielgud and Peter O'Toole that also had a bunch of porn in it.

Champion, fan-favourite and horny-history expert Eleanor Janega returns to the pod to talk about one of the most insane films ever made.

Phoebe and Patrick answer your questions about the Early Roman Empire and anything else that stood out to you from the first few episodes of our Twelve Caesars series. Milo will return next week.

It's time for history's greatest statesman, a man so forward thinking he nearly made a horse a consul (or did he?): Gaius Caligula. Expect palace coups, seashells and slightly over-familiar sister relationships.

Is there anything gayer than two straight men? Arguably no, and we have watched a movie that makes that case loud and clear. Join Milo, Phoebe and Pat as they analyse a movie about two Napoleonic cavalry officers who would literally do anything to each other except kiss.

It's Milo's turn to explain the Emperor Tiberius to Phoebe and Pat. Augustus' adopted son with a bad reputation and his own, ahem, private island. He is also the biological son of the most confusingly named man in history. Expect ancient scandals and name alerts galore.

What was really going on in Rome during Augustus' reign? We've heard from Suetonius and now it's once again time for Milo and Phoebe to bombard Dr Wyman with stupid questions. Expect a lot of deep cuts about Roman cities and also a revelation about statue botherers.

Pat is in the driving seat this week, explaining to Milo and Phoebe what Suetonius thinks about the man who found Rome a city of brick but did some rather nifty cladding work. We also get into the thorny issue of Nolan's Odyssey and which director we would rather have.

Merry Christmas and or Saturnalia depending on your preference!
