For this newest installment of the A.D. History Podcast, Paul and Patrick dive into two very intriguing facets of 161AD to 170AD. With the ongoing pandemic we are experiencing at present, they look into the Antonine Plague that massacred Rome, compared to what we are experiencing today. Additionally they explore a most fascinating question: What was the relationship between ancient Rome and Han Dynasty China? These two hegemons of their time had a most unusual relationship, and were fundamentally curious about the other. Despite their distance with each sitting on the opposite side of the known world from the other, they surely did not escape each other's attention, interest, or influence. *DONATE TO A.D.

To ring in the first new episode of 2021, Paul and Patrick are teaming up to tackle the question: Who wrote the gospels in the Christian New Testament? On the other side of this Christian biblical coin, who is Marcion of Sinope, and how did he influence the idea of creating a New Testament canon? Given how enormous this greater subject is, Patrick and Paul are working in tandem to properly deliver what it’s due. *DONATE TO A.D.
