This episode of Londinium Chronicles was broadcast live yesterday on YouTube, X, and here on Substack.
Join us this Sunday at 6PM EST on Substack for another live broadcast.
It is 92 AD and a beautiful spring evening. Cool, bright sunshine; the clouds laden with rain, but not tonight. The flowers of May are here, along with the pollen count, sneezing across the whole landscape of Londinium. Crossing here from my home on the other side of the Thames, I was reminded: you know, it really is a beautiful world. Just gorgeous off the Thames—the sunlight, the clouds, and what is going to happen here for the next 2,000 years.
I welcome my friend, colleague, and confidant, Germanicus. He joins me as the centurions are coming in for their generous cups of wine that we provide. You know, we do have good vineyards here; that warming trend that happens in the 11th century also happened in the first century AD.
Indeed, we raise our glasses.
