🕑 Added 2023-09-27 14:58:33 +0000 UTChello, patrons! here's your ad-free regular episode for the week! we answered a question from Mooooooog on this one. new bonus episode coming Friday on current events and such.
Luke and Eleanor are back to talk about the meme that's been making the rounds for the past few weeks: How often do you think about the Roman Empire? we discuss how often we actually think about Rome and its successor states before moving on to talk about why this meme became so popular, why guys actually think about the Romans so often, why is this question so weirdly gendered, and more! we had a lot of fun with it and we know you will too. enjoy!

If I was to guess, I'd say women be thinking Marie Antoinette a lot, too. Just based on amount of times she comes up in various shitposts.
