From Republic to Autocracy, How Ancient Rome Warns Us About Democracy’s Fragility


Alex Petkas is a writer, entrepreneur, and the host of Cost of Glory, a podcast celebrating Western Civilization's eminent heroes. With a PhD in Classics from Princeton University, he transitioned from academia to alternative media, where he empowers professionals and entrepreneurs through educational programs and leadership retreats. Alex’s mission is to translate profound insights from Greco-Roman leaders and philosophers into actionable wisdom for contemporary achievers, fostering a deeper appreciation for historical greatness among today’s innovators.


He talks to Bernie today about a topic on many people's minds these days... How similar are current events to the final days of the Roman Republic?


The answers might surprise you! Tune in to find out!
