He's arrogant, scheming, selfish and will shag anything with a pulse.He's also famous, good looking and an ancient Greek hero.Meet Alcibiades. You'll love him but not as much as he loves himself.It's a classical tale of ego, vigorous promiscuity, shameless backstabbing and phallic statue vandalism.What happened when he ended up in bed with Socrates?How annoyed was the king of Sparta when he slept with his wife?How many stone penises is he supposed to have broken?The answer to all these questions and man many more are all in episode 24 of Rogues Gallery Uncovered - the podcast of bad behaviour in period costume.He'd be happy to know that he is a major figure in Greek history and legend of   Ancient Athens. Military leader, hero of the Peloponnesian War and the Sicilian Expedition he played a unique part in Athenian-Sparta relations and really annoyed the Persian Empire. He was a narcissist’s, narcissist so if you are not too busy loving yourself you will love this episode.     Thanks for listening.
