The Gladiator A Legacy of Death
Spartacus, The Gladiator, the movies, the stories, the history, legendary tales of life and death. In this episode we take you on a journey through the world of the Gladiator...A Legacy of Death...legends of Rome! It is an episode full of history, tales of adventure, and debauchery...things get a little crazy! We attest that no one was injured during the recording of this podcast...well almost everyone!
Just imagine for a moment, the sun coming down, the smell of roasting almonds, olives, beer, and the sounds of metal clashing as men embrace in combat in the center of the arena. We must not forget the beasts of the arena...and death sentences being carried out to a sold out arena of 50,000 plus people. What a spectacle it must have been.
So, grab your wine, beer, sit down and join us for a ruckus time...things get weird.
