Plutarch's Greeks and Romans Podcast
Plutarch’s Greeks and Romans is a podcast inspired by Plutarch’s ancient collection of biographies of famous Grecians and Romans.
Plutarch was both a Greek and a Roman citizen living during the Pax Romana - the Golden Age of the Roman Empire.
Our podcast will explore 50 persons Plutarch believed were most influential in the rise of Greek and Roman civilization, from legends such as Theseus and Romulus to conquerors like Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar.
Plutarch had no shortage of great people and stories to tell us about about these people who shaped their times and ours!

Episode 9: The Life of Poplicola
With King Tarquin in exile, and support from the Roman people in hand, Poplicola is forced to play a high stakes game of diplomacy and warfare to secure the newly formed Republic and ensure the tyranny of the cruel monarchy would remain a past indulgence.
The life of Poplicola as described by Plutarch makes it clear how the desire for freedom always trumps tyranny.
