Laughing. I have the identical problem. That said, doesn't it seem like a grand thing to buy these author's books as an expression of real interest as well as respect?
Professor, I hope you can comprehend how precious these presentations are to the general public. To be able to listen in on these conversations are pearls beyond price.
I have developed a profound respect for Garrett Ryan and his manners as an interviewer. He's certainly bright, but his interviews are about furthering and dispersing an understanding of history. Bravo. This discussion with the brilliant David Breeze is a perfect example of his grace and kindness.
Thank you for always having such high-caliber experts on your channel, they are so very knowledgeable, articulate and fun to learn from. I enjoyed this a lot, thanks to you both, Dr. Ryan and Dr. Breeze. Learning more about the ancient world, something I can never get enough of, is always a pleasure with your excellent channel. I second the comment of Nick Poeschek, below, I never can resist buying the books by your expert guests! I wish more were available on Audible; history is a very weak category, with few selections, on that App, sadly❤
You are so right, Kimberly! I love Garrett Ryan's conversations with historians such as David Breeze and Adrian Goldsworthy. I invariably buy the associated books and devour them. It is strange how the subject matter is always so vastly entertaining.
wow! that is interesting. "romans saw god-given gift to rule whole world, but no hurry about it." thank you for showing me something coming from so many different points & views. this really is interesting how we put together peoples' past perceptions . . .
This was absolutely fascinating! I've learned so much and have enjoyed these longer podcasts and interviews!! I agree with NickPoeschek that I'm spending more $ on books, running out of bookshelf space. LOL
Absolutely fascinating. One of the common thoughts is that empires like Rome grow and prosper, in a way, thanks to on conquest. Assuming this is halfway true, I wonder how much the permanence of the frontier reflects necessity in or various individual interests getting in the way of an expansionary Rome
How did the Romans, Greeks, and Parthains explain fossilized fauna and flora? Were fossils collected by any of these societies? Were they considered valuable? Were fossils traded in antiquity?
It was actually mentioned in one of his videos I saw this week. I think it was the one with Adrian Goldsworty ‘700 year rivalry with Persia’ that Augustus liked to collect ‘monster’ fossils in his palace and admire and walk around them.
I would love it if you could provide the titles of the books by your expert guests, in the “Show More” section, perhaps. Even direct links, if possible, thank you.
Hi, I've watched your presentations for some time and I find them extremely interesting and illuminating. It's possible that you've already dealt with this question, or maybe it's not that interesting, but why did the Byzantine or Eastern Roman Empire operate out of Ravenna and not Rome? Thanks in advance.
A masterclass. Here near the Tay I've got one version of the frontier. A different configuration from Hadrian's wall and the Antonine Wall I see now. The frontier design changed over time and place. Of course it did. So has the configuration of just the British Army in just my lifetime.
Sitting side-by-side on a sofa, rather than on chairs at a slight angle to each other and the camera is very odd. Not in a bad way, but it's funny how a convention is noticed only in the breach.
Was there ever a static line of defence that wasn't breached? The Maginot Line, the Great Wall of China, the Atlantic Wall and of course, Hadrian's Wall. All built at an astronomical cost and all... ultimately useless.
0:50 I see your face there. I must say that I at this very moment lost interest in this video. I love all of your videos and they usually don't seem to contain any traces of CRT, which is good, because I'm absolutely allergic to it.
The problem with your podcast is every time you interview someone, I spend money on books by the interviewee…
Ha
Oh, yeah, by the way..me too ore books..yummy

I live for these podcasts, please never stop doing them
Liking the longer discussions! And you can tell that the guests really appreciate the informed and stimulating questions.
A guest at home in the sofa. How cozy.
I can't get enough of the podcast, and your content on the main channel! Great work.
Great interview, I've started to enjoy this channel more than the main one, really love the long videos
You're too good for TH-cam.
I've just subscribed to your Patreon.

Very interesting as always. Please, keep up the good work, sir.
Your service to the world is extremely meaningful. Thanks for your content!

Fascinating discussion. Many thanks for this!
superb stuff
Thank you for this episode! A fascinating topic.
Fascinating discussion; I have always been interested in Hadrian's Wall so I really enjoyed this. Thank you! Regards from Canada 🇨🇦

Mary Beard, you need to do an interview with Mary Beard.

Amazing
why would u retreat from antonine wall to hadrians thats longer if u got less troops and both were manned by same amount before?

You need to know the history and be a patient watcher, this then is gripping.
Perhaps in the year 5534 they'll speak of the United States in the same sort of way
