In this episode, we are getting to know Livia Drusilla, one of Rome’s most powerful and influential women. Livia’s life began with a solid Roman foundation, but little did anyone know that she was destined to become a woman whose name would echo through history. In this episodes, we'll go from her birth right up to her scandalous second marriage.
We'll also re-visit some old Roman besties, Julius Caesar, Marc Antony and Octavian aka Augustus!
