Those About To Die, an original epic drama from Peacock, takes viewers inside the earliest days of sports entertainment and gambling in Ancient Rome. Imagine the Roman Emperor as the league commissioner, the four Patricians are the equivalent of modern-day team owners. In “Those About to Die” Chariot Racers are divided into 4 main factions: The Red, The Green, The White, and The Blue Faction. The Patricians who own these factions can garner enough money and power to challenge the Emperor.

How Sports Gives Power to the Rich in “Those About to Die” - The Patricians

On this episode, host Dana Schwartz (Noble Blood) talks with the cast and creators of the Peacock Original Series Those About To Die about bringing ancient Rome to life. Names like Vespasian, Titus and Domitian are instantly recognizable, locations like the Circus Maximus and the Colosseum loom and the gritty underbelly of Roman society feels familiar…and also alien, all at the same time.
