Hey everyone, so today we've got something a little bit out of the ordinary.

About six or eight months back, I was contacted by Vince and Cassie,

the two lovely hosts of the podcast, Autocrats, about Roman history.

Wanting me to come on and talk about a topic on Chinese history with them and how it might relate to what they were talking about with Roman history.

But at that point I actually had to write them back and put off any kind of scheduling because I was in the midst of a big life change.

And so I asked if we could please come back to this at a later date and you know take it up then.

A flash forward to this past summer and I'm finally feeling ready to go and they and I are back in touch and then I go ahead and I fall down some stairs and throw out my shoulder. Pretty much spoiling my next couple of months altogether.

But all of this to say, Vins and Cassie were extremely understanding and willing to reschedule

multiple times.

So thanks very much to the both of you.

Please do go and check out their show, The autocrats podcast,
