Dictatorum is a podcast about dictators.

The goal is to take deep dives into the lives of some of history’s baddest men. We’ll look at their origins, their rise to power, and their ultimate fall. We will also look at some of the results of their time in power, both negative and positive.

About me: I live in the Washington D.C. area and have been enjoying podcasts since 2009. Dictatorum started with an idea inspired by my love of podcasts and history. I couldn’t find any podcasts about dictators to listen to when running, so I had to start my own. Since I started writing in 2017, several shows have come out, but nothing matching the format and length that appealed to me. The goal for each episode is to be about the length of the average drive to work, or the average amount of time people go out for a run. Each series has a goal length of 10 episodes, to give people plenty of time to digest each story in small chunks. I hope you enjoy listening to the podcast. -STEW
