Man, all this dude's podcasts have so much potential. Great writing, interesting insights. Unfortunately the host's intonation is... unsettling, and he speaks too fast. Dude needs to chill.

Description

Everywhere around us are echoes of the past. Those echoes define the boundaries of states and countries, how we pray and how we fight. They determine what money we spend and how we earn it at work, what language we speak and how we raise our children. From Wondery, host Patrick Wyman, PhD (“Fall Of Rome”) helps us understand our world and how it got to be the way it is.
