Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither was its wild and wacky religious tradition! In this episode of History for Weirdos, we're ditching the gladiators and emperors for a deep dive into the enigmatic world of the Vestal Virgins. These weren't your average Roman ladies – they were powerful priestesses who wielded immense influence, guarded sacred flames, and swore a 30-year vow of chastity. But don't let the "virgin" title fool you; their lives were far from chaste and quiet.

Join your favorite weirdo historians, Stephanie and Andrew, as they unravel the secrets of these influential women. We're talking supernatural powers, political intrigue, scandalous rumors, and the ultimate price paid for breaking their sacred vows. Brace yourselves for a wild ride through ancient Rome's spiritual underbelly.
