Yup, there's actually a really fun podcast on the fall of Rome that goes into a lot of social, environmental, and economic issues that came together https://wondery.com/shows/the-fall-of-rome-podcast/

There is also old but interesting book about social history of Rome by Geza Alfoldy, Hungarian historian who at first claim he's not using marxist methods, but the book is really full of it.

I recently started listening to it lol, I'm up to episode 4 I think, I tend to drift in and out when I listen to podcasts and its very thorough so I have to keep re-listening to episodes multiple times so I can understand it. I don't mind though.
