Is the United States following the same path that led to the fall of the Roman Empire?
Jeremy Ryan Slate — a historian, author, and expert on ancient Rome — joins Joe to walk through the shocking parallels between Rome’s decline and what we’re seeing in America right now.

From cultural decay and political corruption to loss of national identity and collapsing institutions, the warning signs are impossible to ignore. Jeremy breaks down what really caused Rome to fall… and whether America is heading toward the same ending.

In this episode:
• The exact stages of Rome’s collapse — and where America fits
• How corruption, division, and moral decline fueled Rome’s downfall
• Why empires rarely collapse suddenly… but always predictably
• What America can learn from Rome’s final years
• Whether decline is inevitable — or if we can still turn it around
