I love the podcast as well, but I was getting a bit depressed after hearing all the awful things these people did

Same. Had to take a long break from it after a while. I did discover Mike Duncan's "The History of Rome" though and gobbled that up. Nom nom nom.

I realize this is from months ago, but years ago I listened to the history of Rome while it was being created. After it was done I was still wanting more Rome history and I found 12 Byzantine Rulers. Great show that summarizes the eastern empire well.

Nice one. Though it's months later I appreciate the recommendation. I'll check it out. Thanks. :)

I can see that happening. There’s basically no upper limit to human suffering and depravity. Personally, I’ve got a decent tolerance of anything short of ‘hacking kids to bits with machetes while lighting puppies on fire with a flamethrower.’

It helps that we’re usually decently detached from the things they mention.
