Summary

The Ides of April: The Assassination of Julius Caesar (Part II) In the conclusion of our two-part story on the fall of the Roman Republic, host Branden Morgan of The Devil Withincontinues the saga of Julius Caesar’s last days and their aftermath. This episode covers the final three chapters: • The Fallout — Mark Antony seizes the moment, and Rome’s streets erupt in chaos. • Judgment of History — Brutus and Cassius, hailed by some as liberators and condemned by others as traitors. • The Death of the Republic, Birth of the Empire — How Caesar’s assassination closed one chapter of Rome and opened another that would last for centuries. The knives ended Caesar’s life, but they could not stop the tide of empire. Support Our Sponsors • Take the online quiz and introduce Ollie to your pet.
