Episode Synopsis

Welcome back, dreamers. Tonight we journey into The Cities That Time Forgot, with the hauntingly preserved Roman city of Pompeii. Once filled with bustling markets, painted villas, and busy bathhouses, it vanished in a single day beneath the ash of Mount Vesuvius.This isn’t a tale of drama, but of quiet history, daily life frozen mid-step, loaves of bread left in ovens, and frescoes preserved for nearly 2,000 years. We’ll move slowly, gently, through the eruption, the centuries of silence, and the rediscovery that astonished the world.💬 Before you drift off, let me know in the comments where you’re listening from and which time zone is tucking you in tonight. I love seeing how far these stories travel across the world. Now, settle in. Breathe slow. Let the ancient streets grow quiet as you drift into sleep.✨ If you enjoy these stories, don’t forget to follow for more journeys through forgotten history.
