108- Triplets Fighting Triplets

2026-06-21

War has come between Rome and Alba Longa, but in a bid to avoid both powers battering themselves into the dust before being swept aside by the Etruscans, they settle it via single combat. Well... more like triple combat. Join us for the We Hate Horatius Club, dictators called Foof, and the origins of walking under the yoke.

Time period: Between 672 and 640 BCE

Relevant individuals: Tullus Hostilius, 3rd King of Rome; Horatii brothers; Curiatii brothers; Mettius Fufetius, Dictator of Alba Longa

A relaxed journey through Roman history and mythology, hopefully with plenty of tangents, sidebars and interesting distractions along the way. Our goal- even if it ends up being unrealised- is to journey from the Theogony all the way to the fall of Constantinople in 1453 and beyond. This show is just for fun, and we hope you have fun with it too!
