#7 Lunch Special: Rome, Sweet Rome! - Cubicle Comrades

What this episode covers

Apparently, men are constantly thinking about ancient Rome. In this episode, Michelle does them one better and talks about life in the Roman Empire. *Michelle's Corrections Corner* (bc she was tired and got some stuff wrong) Commodus was definitely NOT a part of the Julio-Claudian Dynasty. Don't know what my tired brain was thinking. He was actually part of the Nervan-Antonine Dynasty and ended the line of the 'Five Good Emperors' (and yes I don't count Lucius Verus. There. I said it!) The Swiss Guard at the Vatican is only recruited from single Catholic Swiss men who have completed basic training with the Swiss Armed Forces. The Little Timmy I knew stood no chance to get in. Also. it's likely the gentleman from Goa was a Vatican docent of some sort. Good dude!
