This chronological story starts with the collapse of the Western Roman Empire and leads you through the most iconic events, influential figures, and cultural milestones that have shaped Italy into what we see today. It’s all serious stuff, but we do take time to stop and laugh at battles over a bucket, rude names, naughty priests and popes, rabbits winning sieges, doves winning battles, bits of dead bodies as tokens of love, and whole series of real historical silly situations that no comedian could think of. Come along every other week for a compelling and insightful glimpse into A History of Italy.","last_synced_at":"2026-08-01T00:18:47.287322+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-history-of-italy-1607818"},"episode":{"title":"Call for contributions for the podcast website","slug":"call-for-contributions-for-the-podcast-website","published_at":"2026-05-14T13:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-history-of-italy-1607818/call-for-contributions-for-the-podcast-website","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-history-of-italy-1607818","url":"https://www.sentiremedia.com/show/ahistoryofitalypodcast/","audio_url":"https://mgln.ai/e/p28996/episodes.captivate.fm/episode/8d1f0f0f-cc21-4522-9342-5cecaf8d965d.mp3","summary":"We are opening a new section of the podcast website with contributions from you, dear listener!
