Survival Punk | Ep394: The Final Days of Rome: What Collapse Really Looks Like
from Contra Radio Network · host john jeffers

The fall of Rome was not a single event, but a long, grinding decline. And in many ways, it’s the best case study we have for what collapse actually looks like—especially when it happens to a civilization that once seemed untouchable.
