| 9/14/25 | Bonus Teaser: Achaemenid Movies? | Thank you all so much for supporting History of Persia. In this bonus episode, I wanted to try out something a little different than usual.

| 8/17/25 | 152: There Goes the Neighborhood | During and after the Second Syrian War, Antiochus II was involved in many ongoing events with his smaller neighbors and subordinates. Whether it was intervening in the Cappadocian monarchy, being kept out of Bithynia by threats of a wider war, or granting autonomy to Parthia and Bactria to fight the Parni, the Seleucid Empire was a busy place in the mid-3rd Century BCE.

| 6/1/25 | 149: Theogonies | The Ancient Greeks had many ideas about the origins of the universe and humanity over the centuries.
