A (hopefully) fun and accessible portal into Ancient History, with some academic and 'real world' insights.
Episode 6: Dr. Crawford and Aric O take us on a journey to the Agoge, the Spartan training ground for children, exploring myth, fact, and how they often blend together....both good and bad.
Please be advised that sexual harassment / assault is discussed in this episode.
**WARNING** While it does not appear throughout, some episodes feature some stronger language than others.
