5/9/25 Aldo Cazzullo- "The Neverending Empire"

We begin the interview with Aldo Cazzullo, a renowned Italian journalist, talking about his newest book- which is also his first book intended for an international audience ... "The Neverending Empire: The Infinite Impact of Ancient Rome." The book sketches the long history of the Roman Empire and explores the many ways in which it is still a vital part of cultural and political life in the West. We finish out the hour with a portion of a 2009 interview with Adrian Goldsworthy, who discusses his book "Why Rome Fell." (We'll share the Goldsworthy conversation in its entirety in tomorrow's podcast.)
