Show Notes
He was the mule breeder made good. General, sleepy audience member, wit, spendthrift, miser, tax collector, urine hoarder, invader, liberator and, ultimately, Emperor.
The man who inspired the phrase 'Emperors could be made elsewhere than Rome' the founder of the Flavian Dynasty and instigator of a big old arena in Rome you might have heard of, it's my favourite, Vespasian!
