Hey guys, Tristan here, and I have an exciting announcement. The Ancients will be returning to the

London Podcast Festival. Now, last year tickets, they sold out at record speed. So this time,

we've been upgraded. We've got a bigger room. And you, you can be there too on Friday the 5th of

September at 7pm at King's Place.

Now I've invited Friend of the podcast, the fabulous Dr. Eve MacDonald, to join me on stage

where we will be exploring the gripping story of ancient Carthage.

Carthage, the Phoenician city that became a superpower, an empire that rivaled Rome for control in the

Western Mediterranean, and ultimately had a terrible traumatic demise.

Of course, the ancients is nothing without you, so we want you to be there in the audience

taking part and asking us your burning questions. Tickets for the festival always sell fast.

So book yourself a seat now at www.kingsplace.co.uk forward slash what's on. We'll click

the link in the show notes of this episode. The team and I cannot wait to see you there.

I thought that was fascinating and I hope you guys do too.

Let's go.
