Kitty, maybe you could help me find MikeDuncan-29TiberiusGracchusTheHistoryOfRome985.mp3 as my iTunes says it can't be found on the server. Thank you for your assistance.
I have an issue where my iPod insists on playing your podcast eposodes in reverse order no matter what i try. even if i reorder the eposodes in iTues it will oly play it from latest to earliest, which defeats the purpose as I can't follow along as the history occured. any tips for that? what am i doing wrong?
My cat Tigger says your cat looks like his long lost brother, Catticus. Tigger says that your cat was once known as Emperor Catticus, centuries ago and should probably be used more frequently as a source for your podcast.
I just started listening to to this podcast. Love to see your assistant is keeping you company. I have always been a big history enthusiast. I have been watching series Rome on HBO with this podcast. I am amazed with the similarities the our nation has with Rome and how it had maintain a state of war to keep its economy going.

Really like the Podcast and second the comment about yourself & Mr Carlin posted above.
When you've done with the fall of Rome how about cracking on with the Byzantines ... another few 100 years of material ....

An altogether different sort of "cat"-iline conspiracy, (cue rimshot).
