50. To the Thames and Beyond
Thursday Sep 29, 2022
Thursday Sep 29, 2022
Julius Caesar and his legions march to the River Thames where they are confronted by an army of Britons. The deeper they march into Britain the more they seem to suffer casualties in ambushes and hit and run raids. With Autumn quickly approaching, Caesar needs to find a way to bring this campaign to an end before the weather turns and he is stranded in Britain for the winter.
Always looking to generate interest in Rome, Julius Caesar also provides us with an ethnography of the ancient Britons.

Thursday Sep 15, 2022
Thursday Sep 15, 2022
One expedition to Britain isn’t enough for Julius Caesar and soon after returning he’s making plans for a second. This time though, he intends to do it bigger and better than before. More infantry, more cavalry, more ships! Only time will tell if Caesar has learned from the mistakes of his first voyage.

46. Bridging the Rhine
Thursday Apr 07, 2022
Thursday Apr 07, 2022
Summary: Julius Caesar takes the fight to Germania. To do so he will need to demonstrate Rome's incredible engineering abilities. Crossing one frontier isn’t enough for Caesar though and he soon has designs on a second even more outlandish exploit that same year.
Correction #1: I got a little carried away talking about horses in this episode. I say that horses had been the primary method of quick transportation for thousands and tens of thousands of years. In reality the earliest known domestication of horses was roughly 6,000 years ago in the steppelands north of the Black Sea from Ukraine to Kazakhstan according to Brittanica. Meaning that yes, domesticated horses had been around for thousands of years, but not tens of thousands of years. Like I said, I got carried away. It’s another question altogether as to when domesticated horses reached the Rhine. I could not easily find the answer to that question and seeing as this podcast is on Julius Caesar and not horses I hope you’ll forgive me for leaving it unanswered.
Correction #2: In this episode I say that most of the Gallic traders sailed to western Britain. It would be more accurate to say most Gallic traders sailed to a part of Britain West of where Caesar wanted to land. According to historian Adrian Goldsworthy one of the Gallic traders’ most important ports was at Hengistbury Head.

45. New Neighbors
Thursday Mar 17, 2022
Thursday Mar 17, 2022
Julius Caesar has some spare time before the campaign season is over so he decides to try to mop up some pesky smaller tribes still holding out against the might of Rome. These concerns are soon forgotten when a large Germanic host crosses the Rhine and tries to make their new home in Gaul. Caesar tries to deal with them with a combination of diplomacy and threatening action but it ends in a debacle that will be hotly debated in the Roman Senate. Julius Caesar’s greatest Roman foe, Cato, will even suggest that Caesar should be handed over to the Germanic tribes for punishment.
Correction: I mention in this episode that there are accounts of World War 2 soldiers being bogged down in horrible mud not far from where Caesar was fighting the Menapii and Morini. This was a slip of the tongue and I meant World War 1 soldiers.

43. The Consulship of Crassus and Pompey
Thursday Jan 06, 2022
Thursday Jan 06, 2022
Crassus and Pompey take the consulship by violent storm, backed by Julius Caesar. Their triumvirate wishlist from Lucca will take even more violence to get approved but Crassus and Pompey seem happy to use naked force where bribery and covert coercion fail. We also take a quick look at Caesar’s key legates in Gaul and the civilians that act as his proxies in Rome while he is in Gaul waging war.

Thursday Oct 21, 2021
Thursday Oct 21, 2021
With the first Triumvirate publicly unraveling at the seams, Julius Caesar attempts to save the alliance. Calling Crassus and Pompey to his province of Cisalpine Gaul he lays out what the future could look like with Rome’s three most powerful men continuing to work together. We also take a detour through the strange family relations of Cato and the Optimates.
