The Alexander Standard

Someone tell Dustin to shut up about Philip V... but only after listening to this awesome episode about losing a war, being a good/bad friend, and your kids literally annoying you to death. Oh, and somehow elephants show up again.    More from the Alexander Standard Sources Patreon Blue Sky  Facebook Instagram  Twitter  Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

Philip gets mean... real mean. But is it actually his fault or society's? Also, what's with all this noise coming from Athens, and WHAT IS ROME DOING HERE?!!!   More from the Alexander Standard Sources Patreon Blue Sky  Facebook Instagram  Twitter  Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

Hello everyone, we appreciate the continued support and patience and just wanted to give you all a brief update.    More from the Alexander Standard Sources Patreon Blue Sky  Facebook Instagram  Twitter  Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com  

We felt a little wacky this episode, and we're sticking to it. We learn how loud our cat drinks water, lots of familiar people die, and we have a revelation about Game of Thrones! Oh yeah, and stuff about Philip V. This episode is brought to you by sleep deprivation!   More from the Alexander Standard Sources Patreon Blue Sky  Facebook Instagram  Twitter  Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

There's been a conspiracy… in Macedon! Ever wonder what it would look like if Dustin got WAY out of control while researching? This episode. We're traveling back in time and doing a deep dive on the “Conspiracy of Apelles” in 218. In today's episode we have court intrigue, Aratus of Sicyon, biased sources, and Meredith investing in a cattle prod the next time Dustin pulls something like this. Come witness the dumbest rivalry in ancient history!   More from the Alexander Standard Sources Patreon Blue Sky  Facebook Instagram  Twitter  Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

Rule number one: When the Aetolians agree to a peace treaty, it means they are getting ready to declare war again. In other news, the scion of the House of Antigonos has appeared, on whom the fate of Macedon rests! And all he has to do is not to make friends with the wrong people. Come hear the tale of Philip V!   More from the Alexander Standard Sources Patreon Blue Sky  Facebook Instagram  Twitter  Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

A not so "mini" minisode! As we continue to prep for Philip V, let's learn about the first and second Punic Wars! Did Rome bully Carthage? Was Hannibal a dumb-dumb with his Dumbo's? Did Dustin ever turn the ringer off on his phone? Find out today!   More from the Alexander Standard Sources Patreon Blue Sky  Facebook Instagram  Twitter  Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

Here's a little snack from something we cut from Antigonus III Doson's episode.   More from the Alexander Standard Sources Patreon Blue Sky  Facebook Instagram  Twitter  Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

Macedon runs on Doson! In today's episode, the role of Meredith is played by Roberto from Tsar Power! Sparta tries to not be lame with limited success. The Achaeans less so.

It's not Demetrius II's fault that his dad handed him a time bomb. It's not his fault we can't figure out which cousin he married. It's not his fault! But it IS his episode!   Sources Patreon Blue Sky  Facebook Instagram  Twitter  Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

We are thrilled to welcome back actor, writer, and producer Alex Lyras and discuss the second production of his play, "Aristotle/Alexander."

It's curtains for old Antigonos Gonatas in his finale episode. Meredith's jet lag leads to interesting new historical takes such as can the Ptlomey dynasty swim? A general gets some digestive issues and so much more!    Sources Patreon Blue Sky  Facebook Instagram  Twitter  Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

Antigonos Gonatas plays all the hits you've heard before: kings abandoned by armies, uncomfortable marriages, and Athens and Sparta being stupid. Oh and an elephant plays with a baby (no one dies… promise).   Sources Patreon Blue Sky  Facebook Instagram  Twitter  Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

Is he our new “best boy?” Is he the “hardest working boy?” Did Dustin lose friends along the way? Is our cat a domestic terrorist? (Yes) Check out part 1 of Antigonos II Gonatas! Sources Patreon Blue Sky  Facebook Instagram  Twitter  Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

    Oh man, part 2 of the golden boy! The great thing about Seleukos is that he's the gift that keeps on giving, especially when he's giving Antigonos a headache. Conquests, a weird story about a lion and a sweaty man, Lovecraftian-esque coffee, and more!

Finally, finally, finally! Seleukos Nikator, the one we've all been waiting for!!! Featuring our special guest star, Roberto from Tsar Power! Turns out Seleukos wasn't as innocent as we (just Dustin) had thought, but he's still the best! I mean, can you wrestle a bull to the ground with your bare hands? Seleukos totally can, and he wouldn't lie about it.

Lysimachus is the kind of guy who stands in the back of the room watching and waiting. He also fights lions but he'll surrender his entire army for a glass of water.

Part 2 of Ptolemy's story gives us more of everything we love about the Hellenistic World! More dead bodies, more shenanigans, more polygamy, more children, more trash talking, plus some interesting facts about beavers that we can only hope are not true.

While we're all waiting for Ptolemy pt. 2, Dustin had the chance to sit down with actor, writer, and producer Alex Lyras and discuss his new play, "Aristotle/Alexander." Want to hear discussions of ancient and modern political thought? How about ancient gender and sexuality? Maybe even philosophical shenanigans?

As David Lee Roth once said, "It's not whether you win or lose, it's how good you looked doing it!" Actually his dad said that, but we're pretty sure he learned it from Ptolemy!

Valentine's Day is all about being with that special person in your life. But if you're Demetrius, then it's the special four, five, or even six people in your life; that is, until your own people defect to some rando and kick you out of your own country because they hate you and then you have to go back on the run and get lost in Asia until your get captured by your own stepson (who's old enough to be your dad). Yeah... Demetrius had a good life... Oh and now we sell perfume... or cologne... or something.

Demetrius is what you would call a "Beautiful Disaster." He was supposedly quite beautiful, but he was definitely a disaster. Trust us, however hard you've ever partied, Demetrius partied harder. But don't worry, we also take a detailed look at Demetrius' love life. Also, today's episode features SEVERAL guest stars, including Pontifacts, Tsar Power, Queens Podcast, Prime Time, and Nobelesse Oblige.  Sources: https://alexanderstandardpod.weebly.com/sources.html Facebook: The Alexander Standard Podcast Instagram @alexanderstandardpod Twitter @AlexStandardPod Email: Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com Blue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/alexstandardpod.bsky.social

Antigonus the One-Eyed was a big man, so big in fact that his story couldn't be contained in a single episode.

You've waited with bated breath, but he's here! It's POLYPERCHON! What happens when you give control of a massive empire to a mediocre commander who tries way too hard? And if everyone already knows you're a disappointment, can you ever really let them down? We answer these questions and more on today's episode!

Well, we learned a lot in this episode! First, being the son of a king may not be as awesome as you'd think. Sure, you get the royal treatment, but you never know when someone might throw you in a dungeon for no reason. Second, you can squeeze water from a stone, but it kind of hurts. Third, toy commercials can be dark. Fourth, Dustin learns not to sit so close to the mic. Come hear the story of Alexander IV!   Sources: https://alexanderstandardpod.weebly.com/sources.html Facebook: The Alexander Standard Podcast Instagram @alexanderstandardpod  Twitter @AlexStandardPod Email: Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

Come hear about the best boy, the most betrayed boy, the most beloved boy! Hear the tales of the Greek who eats adversity for breakfast and treats treachery like it was just a sneeze! He can make scrambled eggs from a rock! He can make a horse run on a treadmill without even using the treadmill! He's loyal to the end! He will call you a moron if you betray him! He's right about everything but no one ever listens! He's Eumenes of Cardia!!! Also, Dustin has some great tips about interacting with horses [MEREDITH EDIT: no, he doesn't].  Sources: https://alexanderstandardpod.weebly.com/sources.html Facebook: The Alexander Standard Podcast Instagram @alexanderstandardpod  Twitter @AlexStandardPod Email: Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

AND WE'RE BACK! Took long enough, didn't it? How easily a few weeks turned into five months. But to pay back your patience, we've got a treat for you: It's a double-whammy!!!! Not one, not three, not five and-a-half, but TWO rulers for you in this episode! Plus all kinds of new stuff! New music, new degrees, new cats, new apartments, guest stars, monster truck rallies, and so much more! But still the same whacky, backstabbing Hellenistic stories you know and love... plus the same silly hosts. And now, if someone ever asks "if there's a doctor in the house," somebody here gets to give a really annoying answer!

Remember when we posted the first episodes on a weekly basis? Pepperidge Farm remembers... But seriously, the winter season brings food, festivities, and (for those of us working in education) a lot of work to catch up on! So right when we realized we were starting to average a month between episodes, we decided that it might be best for us to take a step back, catch our breath, and come back stronger (and sillier) than ever. Even Alexander took time off to recuperate, but that was usually after he did something profoundly stupid! We, at least, are trying to catch up on some work.  Thus, we're gonna go on a brief hiatus. But don't worry, we'll be back in the stomp of an elephant's foot (go listen to the Perdiccas episode if you don't get that joke; hey we have inside jokes now!). We're far too nerdy to disappear for good. In the meantime, we hope everyone has a great holiday season and/or winter break! See you soon!  Sources: https://alexanderstandardpod.weebly.com/sources.html Facebook: The Alexander Standard Podcast Instagram @alexanderstandardpod  Twitter @AlexStandardPod Email: Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

Well, it took long enough! Today's episode is about the joy of old age, rebellions, sound effects, and (most importantly) love. Antipater's episode isn't as shocking as Perdiccas' antics, but maybe someone gets their tongue cut out. Plus, we tell you why you shouldn't throw rocks at people walking outside your city and why poison should only be carried in a horse's hoof.  Sources: https://alexanderstandardpod.weebly.com/sources.html Facebook: The Alexander Standard Podcast Instagram @alexanderstandardpod  Twitter @AlexStandardPod Email: Alexanderstandardpod@gmail.com

It took a while, but here we are: our first successor, Perdiccas! This episode has it all, even though Perdy didn't last very long. We've got elephants, crocodiles, rebellion, marriage proposals (and rejections!), body snatching, eco-friendly footwear, and a little more rebellion for good measure. Plus Dustin reveals a dark, life-long secret to Meredith. All of this and more as we investigate whether or not Perdiccas rises up to the Alexander Standard (… he doesn't).
