About the Show

The format for the show will ideally follow every ruler of the Seleucid empire from their accession until their death, with a few divergence episodes covering different topics in between. For example, coming up just before the reign of Antiochus III will be a history of Rome up until the 2nd century BCE.

At the end of each’s ruler reign, there will be a brief recap episode where I award them an updated, 21st-century version of their ancient Greek epithet- things such as Seleucus ‘Nicator’ or Alexander ‘Megas’, for example. This new epithet will be based on my own personal perception of their reign- so it will be subjective- but will hopefully be a bit of fun.
