TCP does Roman History: Cassius Dio on Caligula
"He’s at once very conventional and yet also extremely distinctive - Dio repeats all of the standard criticisms we might find of Caligula, but, in this account, he tries to make his horse a priest, not a consul!"
Dr Christopher Burden-Strevens (University of Kent) and James Renshaw discuss the third Julio-Claudian emperor in this episode.
