Is it a movie podcast? Is it a history podcast? Is it an unholy union of the two? yes.
Each episode, hosts Colin MacCormack, Elijah Fleming and Christie Vogler break down media about ancient Greece, Rome or the wider ancient world and what works (or doesn’t work). This isn’t a podcast for nitpicking historical inaccuracies, it’s a chance to get hot takes on Hollywood films from professional academics, creators, and students and take a closer look at the relation between our movies and our pasts.
Here is where you'll find all the extra material that does not make it into a podcast episode, including bloopers, longer guest interviews, game play-throughs, and shorter takes of Classical reception in unexpected places.

Romulus, Season 1 (2020), with the Partial Historians
Rome wasn't founded in a season of television, but you can watch it on Tubi. Joined by super-special guests and experts of archaic Rome, Dr. Peta Greenfield and Dr. Fiona Radford (aka The Partial Historians), we dig into the first season of Romulus (2020), an Italian historical drama retelling the founding of Rome. Familicide, divine epiphanies, pre-agricultural wolf cults, eyeball-poking-masks, this show has everything. It's also the only piece of television (to our knowledge) spoken entirely in Archaic Latin. We also did the whole episode in Archaic Latin too.
You can find out more about the Partial Historians on their website (partialhistorians.com/) and listen to their show (podcasts.a...

Alexander (2004), with Jenn Finn
Просмотров 17221 день назад
What if you made a coming of age film, but it was about a Macedonian Prince who conquered Asia? Joined by super special guest and Alexander expert (*Alexpert) Jenn Finn (www.luc.edu/classicalstudies/facultydirectory/faculty/finn.shtml) , we psychoanalyze history's most famous military wunderkind as presented in Oliver Stone's 2004 historical epic Alexander. As we learn from the film, the secret...
Hercules (2014) [AKA Rockules!], with Amy Pistone

He's just a Big Guy who does Big Guy things! Joined by special return guest, Amy Pistone, we unpack this true gem of a Greek myth adaptation that's really just a delightful D&D excursion. Starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as the titular hero, Hercules, it's no surprise that we all come away loving this quirky film produced at a time when every one else is trying to be gritty with their mytho-h...
Troy (2004), with Joel Christensen

Returning to our debut topic, we dig into the 2004 attempt to keep the Gladiator train going, Wolfgang Petersen's Troy. Joined by super-special guest Joel Christensen (scholarworks.brandeis.edu/esploro/profile/joel_christensen) (of Sententiae Antiquae (www.sententiaeantiquae.com) fame), we revisit this oddly situated film. Spurned by many, beloved by some, and forgotten by most, this film sits ...

I, Claudius (1976), part 1; with Liz Gloyn
7:20 Not just "early king struck by lightning" but (if diodorus is to be believed) the "struck by lightning" thing was cover for murdering him
57:00 iirc tacitus has something similar with the deaths of the people around tiberius making him become 'more evil' but... it's not well represented here
If you're good looking you should change your format
