Ep. 128: Evil Emperors, Pt. 1 - The Sins of Caligula
Ain't It Scary? with Sean & Carrie - A podcast by Killer Podcasts - Thursdays
Categories:
We're going back to ancient Rome for a two-part look at the most notoriously evil emperors the empire ever had! This week, Sean gets us warmed up with Caligula, the man whose name has become a byword for madness and sexual depravity. Rome's third emperor ruled for less than four years, so what could this guy have done to get this kind of reputation? Was Caligula assassinated for being a violent madman, or was he just sleeping with the wrong guys' wives? And did he really try to make his horse a consul? Some of the facts are disputed, some obscure... But most of them are pretty gross. ________________________________________ Connect with us on social media: Facebook: www.facebook.com/aintitscary Twitter: @aintitscary Instagram: @aintitscary Patreon: www.patreon.com/aintitscary Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/aint-it-scary?ref_id=27696 ___________________________________________ Thank you to our sponsors: Magic Mind - Get up to 56% off your subscription and 20% off your first order with our code SCARYSC2020 at MagicMind.co/aintitscary!
