You are part of a mercenary group called Black Knight Contracting in Urumqi, China. Your team has been dispatched on a mission out into the mountains. All you know about your mission is that it's at a placed called the Twilight Histories and it should only take 24 hours. You quickly learn this is not a simple flushing mission. You're about to be sent to a different world in the multiverse, one where the only civilization that rose was the Ojibwe in Northern Canada. And the man who has hired you wants to conquer them.

This is a tribute to Ancient Rome Refocused and a story about how the Twilight Histories came into being. You'll hear stories from the earliest days of history podcasting (2007-2010), and you'll learn how the Twilight Histories was formed from those early works of podcasting history... Hardcore History, The History of Rome and of course... Ancient Rome Refocused. How do you create a podcast? How do you find your unique podcasting voice? How can you overcome those early failures? You'll discover the podcasting journey of Jordan Harbour from the Twilight Histories. You'll also hear Episode 2 from Ancient Rome Refocused called Time Travel is Easy, History is Hard. This was the seminal work that led to the final form used by the Twilight Histories and it is an incredible honour to show it to you. It has long since been taken down.

The Earth is flung into deep space. Humanity must survive on a planet that's slowly freezing. YOU are a scavenger exploring the surface for anything useful. But your batteries are empty and there is no sun for your solar panels. You are stuck, adrift on a sea of boiling oxygen on a world that's hurtling out of the solar system. This is a campaign style audio fiction that casts YOU as the hero. So step on the platform and let's get you on your way… Frozen Earth was inspired by Chinese science fiction, and in particular the short story Wandering Earth by Cixin Liu. He also wrote Three Body Problem, which is excellent and has been turned into a fantastic audiobook book series. Frozen Earth was written and produced by Jordan Harbour. #roleplaying #rpg #fiction #audiofiction #siencefiction #scifi #fantasy #fightingfantasy #multiverse #alternatehistory #speculativefiction #audiodrama #timetravel #game #weird #chinese #neptune #solarsystem #fishingboat #atmosphere
Conquering Japan was supposed to be easy. It was a mop-up campaign, a simple wiping away of a few rump islands on the edge of the vast Mongol empire. But a great tsunami destroyed the Mongol fleet and tens of thousands of Mongols drowned. One ship survived the tsunami. It was ejected out into the vast Pacific. With its masts and rigging destroyed, it was left to the whims of the currents and these took it straight across the open ocean. The ship was finally wrecked on some distant rainy coast... This is a campaign style adventure where YOU are the hero. So step on the platform and let's get you on your way...

Dramatic Narration: The episode starts out with a modern version of the Aeneid. Please forgive me, Virgil. Annie meets a guy visiting from overseas and conspires to keep him in Chicago so she can work her charms on him. It's a chicklit with the makings of a great chickflic, that is all based on the Aeneid. The author Natalie Haynes is interviewed by Rob Cain on her book The Ancient Guide to Modern Life. The show concludes with a plug for the hot new podcast TWILIGHT HISTORIES by Jordan Harbour.https://www.twilighthistories.com/The episode titled: ROME INDUSTRIAL features a Rome that has not fallen.
The episode starts with a modern version of the Aeneid. Please forgive me, Virgil. Annie meets a guy visiting from overseas and conspires to keep him in Chicago so she can work her charms on him. It's a 'chicklit' with the makings of a great 'chick movie.' Do you hear that SONY PICTURES? Mr. Cain then interviews Natalie Haynes who has written the book THE ANCIENT GUIDE TO MODERN LIFE. How modern are our lives? Or are we still living the lives our ancestors lived? Whether political, cultural, or social, there are endless parallels between the ancient and modern worlds. Whether it’s the murder of Caesar or the political assassination of Thatcher; the narrative arc of the hit HBO series, The Wire, or that of Oedipus; the popular enthusiasm for the Emperor Titus or President Obama – over and over again we can be seen to be living very much like people did 2,000 or more years ago. It’s time for us to re-examine the past. Our lives are infinitely richer if we take the time to look at what the Greeks and Romans have given us in politics and law, religion and philosophy and education, and to learn how people really lived in Athens, Rome, Sparta and Alexandria. This is a book with a serious point to make but the author isn’t just a classicist but a comedian and broadcaster who has made television and radio documentaries about humour, education and Dorothy Parker. This is a book for us all, not for an elite. The show concludes with a plug for the podcast: TWILIGHT HISTORIES by Jordan Harbour. "Listen to the extraordinary podcast: ROME INDUSTRIAL.
