Now that we've learned about expectations for Ancient Roman women, time to learn about a woman who broke all the rules!
You may not have heard of Fulvia, but you've heard of her third husband (pre-Cleopatra Marc Anthony!). And get ready to enjoy the downfall of her number one hater, Cicero (the John Knox of his time).
We're joined by returning guest Jane Draycott (who was previously on to discuss Cleopatra's daughter, Cleopatra Selene), author of a new biography of our new icon Fulvia!
