Julius Caesar...military genius, fashion icon, drama queen, and oh yeah—murdered by 60 of his coworkers. We've all heard the name before. Maybe you think of togas, Caesar salads (not from him btw), or that phrase "Beware the Ides of March." Whatever that means. But Caesar’s real story? Lemme tell you... way messier than what they told us in school. From pirate kidnappings to public sex scandals, and flexing on his enemies to literally dumping a bucket of #2 on a senator’s head— history remembers this man as some regal leader. But he was pure chaos. And his murder? Less Shakespearian tragedy and more Game of Thrones energy. So why did Rome turn on their “god”? And did Caesar kind of have it coming? Let’s get into it. This is the Dark History of Julius Caesar. I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History. I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show.

Caesar, Brutus, Cato, Cinna…. I feel dumb that it never occurred to me that The Hunger Games specifically used names from Julius Caesar.

Drinking wine and eating an Easter egg alone in London watching this. It's bliss.

As a 70 yo hippie....... I'm probably old enough to be ur gramma. You are so great at storytelling. It is an art form. I've learned so much and laughed at the same time. Thanks for the research you do for us. I dig it! ❤❤

"Cesar was a bully and they knew if they spoke up they'd end up in jail" funny how history repeats itself

“Macaroni” was a 1700s slang for “fashionable” used by European guys who were called Dandies. The Yanky Doodle song was actually made by British guys to make fun of Americans

Episode suggestion: Would you do the dark history of Cleopatra? Everything we learned about Cleopatra growing up was propaganda written by her enemies. It’s taken approximately 2,000 for historians to realize this! I would love for you to explore that!
