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":"Interview episode: Learning Italian with Margherita from \"Italian Matters\"","slug":"interview-episode-learning-italian-with-margherita-from-italian-matters","published_at":"2026-06-16T13:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-history-of-italy-1607818/interview-episode-learning-italian-with-margherita-from-italian-matters","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/cf9d0793-6d1e-4afc-b87a-d4e4c43e77c2.mp3","summary":"We speak with Margherita Berti, founder of Italian Matters, an online Italian language school that helps adult learners build confidence and make consistent progress in Italian through a practical, structured approach.
