Can you believe there's been another 100 Fan of History episodes since the last time we did this! Take a stroll back in podcast time through the past 100 episodes with Dan and Bernie as they reminisce:
Ashurbanipal the OG Assyrian emperor, Dugdamus the Demon King, Nebuchadnezzar nemesis of the Jews, Cyrus the Freaking Great.... and no episode would be complete without good ole GYGES!
We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed making it and the past 100 episodes!

Detail and fun like you will only get at Fan of History from Dan the Rome Man.
This really is an amazing episode... so many wild things happen!
Unlike some other leaders in our day who bow out gracefully - ahem - our guy gets thrown down the steps. And that's just the beginning of his problems.

Tarquinius Superbus
Servius Tullis
Biggus Dickus
I mean come on, where are you going to get all this??
And just when you think you've heard it all... you haven't when the world's best salesperson shows up.
Listen all the way to the end and enjoy!

Unlock the secrets of Plato’s final legacy… the real story of the Atlantis myth.
Jack Kelley is a film maker, classicist, and seeker of the truth. And "by GEORGE" it looks like he found it! Jack tells Bernie about the just released documentary "The Atlantis Puzzle"... how it came to be and how his serendipitous reading on a vacation to Greece led to this amazing revelation.
I was fascinated by our conversation and even more so by the documentary! Check out our discussion here and the film in the links below.

BEHEAD! (the horse)
We're in the Spring and Autumn Period and man is this a really fun episode! I mean, where can you get all this in one place:
• Human Sacrifice
• Ghosts and Ghost Theory
• Beguiling
• Tibetan Buddhism
• and beheading a horse!
Not only the fun stuff but Confucius, Sun Tzu, Lao Tzu, and the really big star Zichan of Zheng posts the laws for the first time. WHAT... NO LAWS??
And after this episode was recorded this rolled of Garry from History In the Bible podcast's tongue
"The purpose of the law is to bind the poor without protecting them; and to protect the rich without binding them".
Listen to this really informative and FUN episode to hear all that and actually way more. Dan and I had a great time recording this one!

We have a jam packed episode here for you guys! They say Genghis Khan was born clutching a bloody blood clot... but here we have Sun Tzu born on the same year of a major peace conference in China. History loves irony that's for sure.
If you've been following along, you know that warfare in China during this period is endemic... maybe more like an epidemic. But as good humans they are trying. Let's see how this works out!
