We've got a great new episode dropping later this week, on the Domus Aurea, on the occasion of a new exhibit on Isis. In the meantime, check out @DariusArya who has just relaunched his YouTube channel. You will see a lot of content that complements our own work on Rome and throughout the Empire. It has its own unique vibe, and we think you will enjoy his "Traveling Through Time" episodes. Check out the first video! (and check out his new trailer!)
