In this special episode devoted to even more on the queen of Carthage, Dido, Liv teams up with Genn and Jenny of Ancient History Fangirl for a rundown of why Rome "needed" so much Augustan propaganda, and what that means for the real Carthage and the mythological Dido. There's drunken elephants, loathing of Julius Caesar, gossip about Augustus's family, Cleopatra, Ovid, and of course, Dido.CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.To listen to more of Genn and Jenny, subscribe to Ancient History Fangirl wherever you get your podcasts! ancienthistoryfangirl.comAttributions and licensing information for music used in the podcast can be found here: mythsbaby.com/sources-attributions.
