O tym odcinku

In today’s episode, Ryan looks at the myths, accusations, and contradictions behind Nero’s reputation, and asks whether he was really a monster, a scapegoat, or a warning. </p><br><p>📚 Books Mentioned: </p><ul><li><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Nero-Emperor-John-F-Drinkwater/dp/1108472648" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Nero: Emperor and Court</em> by John F.
