    RE-RELEASE: Dionysus: Religion of Revolution

    Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! ⁠⁠ Dionysus was a god of revolutions. He featured prominently in two out of three major Roman slave rebellions. Why is that? And why was that aspect of Dionysus forgotten? In this episode, we'll focus on what happened after Dionysus won his place as a god on Mount Olympus--how people worshiped him on earth, and what made him so dangerous to the Roman status quo.

  • RE-RELEASE: Teotihuacan: Eat the Rich

    RE-RELEASE: Teotihuacan: Eat the Rich
    Feb 12 2026
    Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! ⁠⁠ Teotihuacan is an ancient pre-Colombian city in central America, founded two thousand years ago. It’s the home of some of the most iconic Mesoamerican monuments in existence, including the Pyramids of the Moon and Sun. The city was abandoned after about 750 years of habitation. When the Aztecs first encountered it, it had stood empty for 600 years. Walking through the empty ruin, they marveled at the towering pyramids, the incredible murals, the enormous palaces—and wondered where the people had gone. They thought these people must have become gods. This city has something for everyone: mysterious skeletons. Volcanoes. An eating of the rich. And so many mysteries, it’s hard to pick just one.

  • ALL IN ONE PLACE: The First and Second Servile Wars

    ALL IN ONE PLACE: The First and Second Servile Wars
    Feb 5 2026
    ⁠⁠⁠⁠Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! When we think of large Roman slave rebellions, we usually think of Spartacus. But what if we told you that Spartacus was only the third in a 30-year cycle of slave rebellions that happened twice before? The wars that came before Spartacus were larger, more all-encompassing, and maybe more violent—sweeping up hundreds of thousands of people before the rebellions were done. And their leaders—one a very salty birthday magician, the other a skilled astrologer —were just as epic. We’re on hiatus until April 9. Until then, enjoy our episodes on the First and Second Servile Wars, all in one place. Sponsors and Advertising This podcast is a member of Airwave Media podcast network.
