We are so incredibly thrilled, humbled, excited, and many other adjectives, to announce our special guest: Daniele Bolelli! Some of you may recognize him from his podcasts, History on Fire and The Drunken Taoist. Daniele generously donated his time and academic background to discuss common myths and misconceptions about Rome!

Did Nero play the fiddle as Rome burned? What actually is a "vomitorium"? Were all gladiators slaves? Come find out on this very special episode of Rumor Flies!

This week's musical guest/track: Aiua - "World Outside Ourselves"
