Relistening to a really good podcast on late Roman history

Patrick Wyman's really knowledgeable on the topic, and explicitly doesn't just homogenise the ethnic/political groups involved in that period ("the romans", "the barbarians", "the goths", etc).

It also goes into what life would be like for people on the ground in various places, times and cultures, not just a sweeping overview the wider political phenomena.

Is good
