Part Two of our conversation with Lindsay Powell, an expert on classical Roman history and co-author of a book about Julius Caesar, as well as a solo author of a book about his successor, Caesar Augustus. In this episode we talk about the events that led up to the assassination of Caesar and the general incompetence of the assassins in preparing for the power vacuum that would follow. They did not anticipate the chaos of Rome without Caesar, nor did they realize that the majority of Romans would not see them as liberators, but rather, as traitors
