I was looking for something to listen to while cleaning the kitchen this morning and found this wonderful podcast: http://12byzantinerulers.com/
It found just the right level of information density for me to follow while still doing other things. I'm hoping to start rectifying my general ignorance of all history. I think a lot of our high school math topics could be made more interesting by looking at how they appeared historically (who cared about them and why, and some of the personalities involved in their pursuit). As part of this, I think it would be nice to have a general sense, as well, of what else was happening around those times.
Anyhow, there it is!
