I wish there was more to do with Ancient Rome, Greece. All of that time period. I've thoroughly enjoyed listening to the Fall of Rome. Would love some more on the rise of Rome as well.

Try the History of Rome out. It doesn't hold a candle to Hardcore History in terms of production, but it is pretty good. Unfortunately, within about 30 episodes you're on to the Grachi. Hannibal is dealt with in three or four episodes. The First Punic War is dealt with in maybe two episodes and the third is practically a footnote. He does go into decent detail about the founding, the legend Romulus and Remus, and the ouster of the kings. But he admittedly doesn't have much material to work with. It's tough to determine what is real and what is legend. The history is just too sparse and unreliable.
