The History of Rome podcast by Mike Duncan is over a decade (edit: typo) old but it's ideal for that. He has an incredibly relaxing voice, and even though I'm legitimately interested in Roman history I would find myself drifting off sometimes. The audio quality in the early episodes aren't great but he gets a better mic later.
