Our idea of the Roman Empire really comes down to a couple moments.

A large part of why Octavian, such Augustus, manages to establish the Roman Empire,

is everyone's just sick of this constant civil war, and he brings peace. That is his propaganda. I'm the one who ends the wars. The Romans admire the Greeks, culturally. Herodotus, the father of history. Had a famous quote where he says, The Greeks received their gods from Homer and Hesiod. But when you have a text like the Iliad that everyone knows, that everyone pictures Zeus through Homer's text, this all-powerful sky god. You don't want to live like Zeus unless you're a sociopath. If you don't respect him, he'll get you. In the Christian world, they have this idea of guilt. God cares about who you are more than what you've done. Three gods couldn't care less about that. They care about getting their due, which is above all, the smoke of sacrifices and the prayers of mortals. how many gods they have? Over 13 Olympian gods. And who were the Spartans? The Spartans are trained, they're professionals, but they weren't like the Superman that we see with the eight-packs in 300. Oh, they weren't. They were probably very effective. They won some good battles. And actually, Thermopylae is not the most impressive battle. It was the next year, the Tia.

All the Spartans came out and defeated the core of the Persian army.

But it was a weird city.

There are literally hundreds of Roman cities scattered around Turkey.

There's a spot near on Tali there.

They're both a huge-chelp.

Thank you. at the end. It's... All right. I think we're on air now. You were just saying seven years in school after college get the PhD. It is too long objectively. And again, there is no job at the end of that. You do all that work. Come out, you know, starry eye. Like, hey, guys. Hey, world. Give me a job. It's like, hey, no. Oh, my God. At what point do you realize, like, in that process that there is no job waiting at the end of the tunnel? Is it like a year in or three years in or like right at the end? They're like, fuck you. It's kind of a slow and building, fuck you, I would say. You know, like, you realize pretty early, like, no, I won't be the one who, you know, who doesn't get the job. You know, I'm going to be different. I'm better than the rest. Like, no, there's no job for you either.

Well. You realize pretty early, like, no, I won't be the one who, you know, who doesn't get the job. You know, I'm going to be different.

I'm better than the rest.

Like, no, there's no job for you either.

Well, you know what? You have figured it out, my friend, because you went out, you write your own things, you create your own things. You give these amazing tours around the world, too. It feels like every time I look up, you're posting about some tour.

I'm pretty desperate to people, yeah.

No, no, it's great because you're all over.
