On the 27 May 2021, the British Museum opened their newest exhibition on the absolute OG of scandalous, dastardly Roman Emperors: Nero. He also happens to be Sarah’s personal passion project, so Abi just joined her to get all the juicy tidbits and nod along. We thought we’d try something a bit different and podcast ‘live’ in the exhibition ... but it was not the smooth ‘tour-like’ experience we imagined. So in this special episode, we reflect on the highlights and our expectations, with some pro editing magic bringing in snippets from the original recording throughout.
Let us know what you think of the format. If you enjoy, then I suppose we’ll force ourselves to enjoy more exhibitions together in the future...Oh no! What a shame!
‘Nero: the man behind the myth’ is open until 24 October 2021.
