In The Londinium Chronicles, Gaius (John Batchelor) and Germanicus (Michael Vlahos) explore the intersections of Roman history and modern geopolitics.Gaius and Germanicus: Set in Gaius's expanded Londinium wine bar, the hosts introduce modern headlines, including a US-Iran stalemate and rumors of a CIA-FSB flight to Moscow involving refinery capacities, Article 5, or a peace summit. Germanicus analyzes the Ukraine war, arguing Western support through tech, CIA operators, and weapons is pushing Russia to a breaking point.
