In this fascinating episode of 222 Paranormal, Joe and Jennifer Shortridge take listeners on a journey into the ancient world of magic, curses, and supernatural beliefs inspired by the Toledo Museum of Art's remarkable exhibit, "Cursed! The Power of Magic in the Ancient World." For thousands of years, civilizations across Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece, and Rome believed that unseen forces shaped everyday life. Ancient people carried protective amulets, wrote powerful incantations, and even created curse tablets designed to bring misfortune upon enemies, thieves, and rivals. But were these rituals simply expressions of faith and fear, or did people truly believe these objects possessed supernatural power? In this episode, Joe and Jennifer explore the origins of magic in the ancient world and discuss how people used spells, symbols, and sacred objects for protection, healing, and revenge. They examine real lead curse tablets discovered by archaeologists and explain why these mysterious artifacts were often buried in graves, wells, and sacred places. The conversation then shifts toward some of the ancient world's most fascinating supernatural figures, including Pazuzu and Lamashtu. These fearsome beings played an important role in ancient beliefs surrounding illness, protection, and evil spirits. Listeners will also discover the long history of the Evil Eye and learn why protective symbols and lucky charms remain common around the world even today. As always, the discussion doesn't stop with history. Joe and Jennifer explore modern paranormal theories surrounding haunted objects and ask thought-provoking questions. Can emotions or intentions become attached to an object? Could ancient artifacts retain some kind of energy from the people who once used them? Is there any connection between ancient beliefs and modern reports of haunted dolls, cursed antiques, and mysterious heirlooms? The episode also dives into famous allegedly haunted objects, including Annabelle, Robert the Doll, and the infamous Dybbuk Box. While examining these stories, Joe and Jennifer remain open-minded, considering both paranormal possibilities and the psychological power of belief and expectation. Throughout the episode, listeners are invited to consider their own views on the unknown. Would you hold an ancient amulet believed to protect its owner from evil spirits? Would you read the words from a two-thousand-year-old curse tablet? And if you discovered one of these artifacts hidden beneath your home, would you see it as a historical treasure or something far more mysterious? This episode is a captivating blend of history, archaeology, folklore, and paranormal investigation. Whether you're a believer, a skeptic, or simply fascinated by ancient mysteries, this discussion offers a unique look at how humanity has wrestled with the unseen world for thousands of years. Join Joe and Jennifer as they step into the world of ancient magic and ask one of the biggest questions of all: Where does history end... and the paranormal begin?

Send us Fan MailToday's podcast is about humility and its role in spiritual warfare. Our scripture is Daniel Chapter 4:37b, "And those who walk in pride he is able to humble." These are the words of King Nebuchadnezzar II as he spoke about God.Nebuchadnezzar II was a Babylonian King who reigned from around 605 to 562 BCE. Among his many military conquests is the destruction of Jerusalem in 586 BCE. He is also known for his many ambitious building projects, including the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.He is also famous for his praise of God in the Book of Daniel, chapters 2-4. In chapter 2, after Daniel interprets the king's dream of an enormous statue, the king said, “Surely your God is the God of gods and the Lord of kings and a revealer of mysteries, for you were able to reveal this mystery.” In chapter three, the king saw the three Hebrew boys escape the fiery furnace he had thrown them into for defying his order to worship an idol statue. After they emerged from that fire unscathed, Nebuchadnezzar said, “Praise be to the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, who has sent his angel and rescued his servants! They trusted in him and defied the king's command and were willing to give up their lives rather than serve or worship any god except their own God. Therefore I decree that the people of any nation or language who say anything against the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego be cut into pieces, and their houses be turned into piles of rubble, for no other god can save in this way.”Again, in chapter four, the king pays homage to God, but only after he went mad for esteeming himself above the One, True God. After the king repented, his sanity was restored, and he said: “Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt and glorify the King of heaven, because everything he does is right and all his ways are just. And those who walk in pride he is able to humble.” Daniel 4:37 NIVWe can only hope that God reached Nebuchadnezzar in chapter 4. His humility lasted only a little while after chapter 2. It is believed that 20-30 years will pass before we reach chapter 4.These chapters, especially chapter four, are about being humble and subduing pride. The most compelling reason to be humble is that we are all going to die. Yes, we are all going back to dust.Humility is a spiritual warfare weapon because you cannot be successful in spiritual warfare without three things—first submitting to the will of God, then admitting that you can do nothing without Him, and finally, committing to do what He leads you to do after you submit and admit.Humility subdues pride and puts pride under your foot where it belongs because God hates a proud look. Thus, God cannot be present with you in spiritual warfare if you are garnered in pride.So, for success in spiritual warfare, cover your armor in humble submission to his will. And don't be like King Nebuchadnezzar, whose humility was temporary. Be steadfast and stay humble all the days of your life.If you want to contact us or comment on this podcast, please visit our website and select www.cgmissions.com/podcasts, where all episodes are available by category in series format.

Why are we obsessed with the ancient world, even the most ordinary parts of it? Mary Beard tackles that question in her new book Talking Classics: The Shock of the Old. Her personal interest in antiquity began with a 4,000 year-old piece of bread displayed at the British Museum. Now, she's an academic who has spent her career studying ancient Greece and Rome. In today's episode, Beard chats with NPR's Scott Simon about how the Greeks and Romans were “brutal” but also "unfailingly interesting" – and how contemporary culture replicates aspects of the classical world.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedaySee pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

Warum verschlug es die Griechen ins des Schwarzen Meeres? In eine Welt der Mythen, Kolcher, Gold und von Skythen? Wie wurde das zunächst ungastliche Meer zum gastlichen? Im 3. Teil über die griechische Kolonisation erkunden wir die pontischen Städte und die Kolonisation des Schwarzen Meeres bis zur Klassik.Wir fragen, wann und wo die ersten griechischen Spuren auftauchen, welche Kolonien wirklich bedeutend wurden – von Sinope über Trapezus bis Olbia – und wie sich das Leben zwischen griechischen Siedlern und den Völkern des Nordpontos gestaltete: Handel, Konflikt, Vermischung oder klare Grenzen. Außerdem geht es um die politische Entwicklung dieser Tochterstädte, ihr Verhältnis zu den Mutterstädten und den Moment, in dem aus Kolonien eigenständige Poleis mit eigener Identität wurden.

What really shapes a city? Buildings, businesses, politics, and culture may be what we see, but beneath every city is an invisible architecture made up of what people worship, trust, and ultimately live for. In Acts 19, Paul arrives in Ephesus, one of the most influential cities in the Roman Empire. It was a center of commerce, emperor worship, the occult, and the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Rather than attacking the culture head-on, Paul faithfully preached Jesus, made disciples, and taught people to live under the lordship of Christ. The result? Hearts changed. Idols fell. Culture shifted. In this message, we'll explore: • Why worship always shapes culture • The spiritual battle taking place beneath the surface • The danger of wanting the power of Jesus without surrendering to His lordship • What the burning of the magic books teaches us about repentance • How the gospel still confronts the idols of money, security, power, and identity today The question Acts 19 leaves us with isn't simply, “Do you believe in Jesus?” It's this: Who is actually sitting on the throne of your life? If Jesus truly is King, He doesn't become another priority. He becomes the One who reshapes every part of life.

So, you're building a fantasy city: Plunk a castle in the middle, put some houses around it, make sure there are some inns and taverns, maybe a church or temple, slap it on a nice body of water, and call it a day, right? NAH. We can do better than that. In this episode, we explore ways that you can create cities that feel natural, lived-in, and unique. Cities are idiosyncratic creatures. So many factors contribute to the development of a city, whether intentionally planned or chaotically organic: the climate, the geography, natural disasters, wars, disease, social priorities, governmental and administrative needs -- They all mean that every city has its own personality. So how can you use those various factors to make sure that your fantasy cities don't all feel like they've been copy-pasted from one very basic mold? We've got thoughts, and we share some of our favorite resources about how cities come to be. Also: Hugo Award voting is open until August 8th!

Ancient Greece and Rome are often celebrated as the foundations of Western civilization, democracy, and political thought. But what happens when these revered historical traditions are mobilized to legitimize exclusionary and authoritarian politics? In this episode of the Review of Democracy podcast, we speak with Curtis Dozier, author of The White Pedestal – How White Nationalists Use Ancient Greece and Rome to Justify Hate (Yale University Press, 2026), about the enduring political power of classical antiquity. Drawing on years of research into extremist appropriations of the ancient world, Dozier explains why white nationalists are so drawn to Greece and Rome, how concepts such as race, hierarchy, decline, and Western civilization are anchored in selective readings of the classical past, and why these interpretations resonate far beyond the political fringes. The conversation explores the surprising continuities between extremist and mainstream narratives about antiquity, the role of historical prestige in legitimizing political projects, and the ways in which the classical tradition has been used to justify slavery, imperialism, exclusion, and domination. At the same time, Dozier reflects on the responsibilities of historians and classicists today, arguing for a reorientation of the field that takes seriously the political afterlives of ancient texts and foregrounds the diverse experiences often excluded from traditional accounts. This is a timely discussion about the uses and abuses of history, the construction of collective identities, and the urgent need to think critically about how the past continues to shape our present.Curtis Dozier is an Associate Professor and Chair of Greek and Roman Studies at Vassar College. He is also the Director of Pharos: Doing Justice to the Classics.

What if everything you think you know about Ancient Greece is wrong?In this episode of History Rage, bestselling historian Adrian Goldsworthy dismantles the comforting myth of a civilised, philosophical utopia. Forget marble statues and thoughtful men in cloaks — this is a world of bitter rivalries, brutal warfare, political volatility, and communities obsessed with proving they were the best.Drawing on his latest book, Athens and Sparta: The Rivalry That Shaped the Ancient World, Adrian reveals a Greek world far more dangerous, competitive and unstable than most documentaries dare to show.Ancient Greece: 800 Rival States, Not One Noble NationThere was no “Greece” in the modern sense. Instead, there were 800–1,000 fiercely independent city-states, constantly competing for prestige, power and survival.In this episode, we explore:Why the Persian invasions weren't an attack on a united GreeceWhy more Greeks fought for Persia than against itHow competition — not culture — defined Greek identityWhy colonisation, warfare and rivalry were normalThe performance culture of honour and reputationThis isn't Plato's academy come to life. It's a volatile world where cities needed enemies — but not so destroyed that there was no one left to applaud their victories.Athens vs Sparta: Democracy, Discipline and MythWe also unpack the two giants of the Greek world:Athens – Radical Democracy or Mob Rule?Athens pioneered a form of direct democracy that feels startlingly modern — and terrifyingly unstable.Every male citizen could voteThousands could serve on juriesOffices were filled by lotteryCitizens were paid for political serviceLeaders could be exiled through ostracismAdrian explains how Athenian democracy worked in practice — including how the Assembly once voted to execute an entire rebellious city… and reversed the decision the next day.This was participation politics at its most extreme.Sparta – Military Machine or Misunderstood Society?Sparta's reputation as a society of full-time soldiers doesn't tell the whole story.Because the Spartans wrote almost nothing themselves, much of what we “know” comes from outsiders — often centuries later.Adrian challenges the clichés:Were Spartans truly permanent warriors?How rigid was their society in reality?What was life like for the Helots?Why did Sparta's citizen population collapse?How democratic was Sparta — really?The result is a more complex, less cartoonish Sparta than Hollywood's 300 ever allowed.

390. What are the “New” Seven Wonders of the World? (English Vocabulary Lesson)

Thousands of years ago, Ancient Greek travellers created a list of the most extraordinary sights they encountered: the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. These included places like the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Lighthouse of Alexandria, and the Colossus of Rhodes. Today though, only one still survives: the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt. So, in the early 2000s, a huge international campaign called the “New Seven Wonders of the World” aimed to create a modern list of wonders. Some governments launched campaigns encouraging citizens to vote for their country's monument. Critics argued that countries with larger populations had an unfair advantage. And UNESCO, the United Nations organisation responsible for protecting world heritage sites, was not involved in the project. So today, I want to explore the story behind the New Seven Wonders of the World. What are they? Why were they chosen? And do they really deserve the title of “wonder”? And we will do all of this while learning some new vocabulary and practicing your English listening comprehension.

A rich and immersive reinterpretation of the history of Western thought, The Evolution of Western Thought: Volume 1, From the Ancient World to Late Antiquity (Cambridge UP, 2025) – the first in a major trilogy – explores the transmission and development of philosophical ideas from Plato and Aristotle to Jesus, Paul, Augustine and Gregory the Great. Christopher Celenza recalibrates philosophy's story not as abstract argumentation but rather as lived practice: one aimed at excavating wisdom and shaping life. Emphasizing the importance of textual tradition and elucidation across diverse contexts, the author shows how philosophical and religious ideas were transformed and readjusted over time. By focusing on the centrality of Christianity to Western thought, he reveals how ancient ideas were alchemized within religious frameworks, and how – across the centuries – ethical and intellectual traditions intersected to shape culture, memory, and the pursuit of sagacity. Ever attentive to ongoing conversations between past and present, this expansive intellectual history brings perspectives to the subject that are both nuanced and fresh. Christopher S.

How does God's love keep showing up for us, even when we struggle? In this episode Professor Aaron Schade reframes the book of Judges as more than a collection of heroic stories. Instead, he describes it as a sobering account of spiritual decline, broken covenants, and the consequences of living according to "what is right in our own eyes." Professor Schade explores the recurring cycle found in Judges: ancient Israel turns away from God, experiences suffering, cries out for relief, and is delivered only to fall again. Rather than celebrating the judges as flawless leaders, he highlights their imperfections and the deeper message of the text as a lament over moral confusion and a society unraveling without covenant guidance. Further, Professor Schade explains that at the center of the book of Judges is the example of God's steadfast, unwavering love. Even as His people struggle to truly repent, He continues to reach out, deliver, and invite them back into a relationship with Him. This episode invites us to wrestle with difficult questions about agency, obedience, and discipleship while discovering the powerful truth that God's love persists. Even in the midst of our failures, God's love is always calling us back to Him.

L'Art Antique, or the art of the classical/antique world [Egypt, Greece, Rome], has many stylistic elements developed over the centuries that remain highly prominent today. Arguably, no artistic movement has had a greater worldwide impact than Art Nouveau. When new artists look back to build on something ancient, they create something truly timeless.

Sponsor Link:To check out our special NordVPN savings: Click HereEpisode Summary In this episode of Astronomy Daily, Anna and Avery explore six major stories from the world of space and astronomy. Leading the show is a landmark result from the ALMA telescope: the first-ever measurement of semi-heavy water inside an interstellar object. The interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS contains up to 40 times more deuterium-rich water than Earth's oceans, revealing it formed in an ultracold environment very unlike our own solar system. The hosts then unpack the solution to a decades-long mystery: a massive binary star system near the galactic centre is responsible for the gas clouds feeding the Milky Way's supermassive black hole. Japan's MMX spacecraft — currently on the launch pad — is introduced, along with the exciting detail that its sample capsule will return Phobos material to Australian soil in 2031. Stellar archaeologists at ISTA have found fossilised magnetism on white dwarf stars, shedding light on the Sun's distant future. A thought-provoking segment examines the idea that any alien civilisation searching for intelligent life may already have detected us. And the episode closes with timely aurora and comet skywatching advice for Southern Hemisphere listeners.   Story Sources & Links Segment 1 — 3I/ATLAS Deuterium Water Study: Nature Astronomy (April 24, 2026) — 'A Direct View of the Chemical Properties of Water from Another Planetary System: Water D/H in 3I/ATLAS' — Salazar Manzano, Paneque-Carreno et al.

On the night of July 21, 356 BC, the sky over the city of Ephesus glowed with the flames of one of the most famous fires in World History. On the same day as Alexander the Great's birth, the Temple of Artemis, a Wonder of the Ancient World, was reduced to rubble by fire. The destruction was not the result of an encroaching army or a dispute between Empires; it was history's most famous act of arson, executed by a lonely fame seeker named Herostratus.   Learn more about the Temple of Artemis, which lived a life of glory, mystery, resurrection, and destruction on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In this second part of our recent meetup with @thelandofchem the conversation shifts to how lightning and natural electromagnetic fields could drive activity inside the Great Pyramid. Geoffrey Drumm outlines a model where stone, geometry, and resonance work together to convert electrical input into ultrasonic energy. The discussion expands beyond Giza to consider how other ancient sites may have interacted with telluric currents and atmospheric electricity.

What if the end of the world isn't something we're waiting for… but something being set in motion? In this chilling episode, we explore disturbing claims that some leaders may be viewing modern conflict—especially tensions with Iran, ancient Persia—not just as war, but as prophecy unfolding in real time. If belief begins to shape policy, where does that leave the rest of us? Joining us is Chris Bennett, a globally recognized author and researcher who has spent over three decades investigating the role of cannabis in ancient spirituality, religion, and sacred ritual. From Green Gold the Tree of Life to Cannabis: Lost Sacrament of the Ancient World, Bennett's work bridges mysticism, scripture, and history, with features in major outlets like the BBC, The Guardian, and The Washington Post. But his research goes deeper—into the dangerous intersection of Biblical prophecy and modern geopolitics. Bennett warns of a critical shift: when people stop interpreting prophecy… and start trying to fulfill it. Because when prophecy becomes policy, war is no longer avoidable— It becomes inevitable. Is Armageddon just a warning… or are we already walking into it?

What if everything we are told about ancient civilizations is completely backwards?In this mind-expanding conversation, engineer and ancient mysteries researcher Tyler Engle breaks down why the ancient sites like the pyramids weren't tombs, they were time capsules. Messages written in stone about the nature of reality they knew their descendants would need to remember. Tyler explains how the recently discovered massive shafts beneath the Giza pyramids were possibly a planetary-scale energy battery and consciousness synchronization system.We explore the mystery of how ancient structures were built with precision impossible even with today's engineering. Tyler reveals technology being developed right now that transmutes matter through quantum geometry, and how this might explain what the ancients were really doing. We dive into plasma as a potentially intelligent life form, the hidden meaning behind crop circles that encode advanced physics, and why indigenous "mythology" about thunder beings might be more literal than we think.Tyler brings an engineer's rigor to topics that usually live in the realm of speculation, showing how ancient wisdom aligns perfectly with cutting-edge physics and our emerging understanding of consciousness as a fundamental force in the universe. We also get into why the educational system was designed the way it was, how to redesign it around hermetic principles, and why some people wake up to these ideas while others fall into traps like flat earth theory.This isn't just about the past—it's about remembering a technology of consciousness that could fundamentally change our future. If you've ever felt like there's something we're missing about how reality actually works, this conversation will give you a framework to understand it. A framework that might be necessary for our very survival. | Tyler Engle |►Website | https://bassforge.us/►Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/bassforge.us/►Tiktok | https://www.tiktok.com/@bassforge.us?lang=en►YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/@BassForge_us►Check Out Tyler Engle's new book Cryptex Esoterica: Divergent Science of the Ancient World | https://shorturl.at/1XdgJ►Check out Tyler and Laurie Engle's new books for kids based on the 7 Hermetic Principles | https://shorturl.at/9pihuThis episode is sponsored by►Metal Mark Golden Collectable Art |  https://mtlmrk.com/►Korrect Energy | https://korrectlife.com/| Aubrey Marcus |►Website | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2GesYqi ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠►Instagram | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2BlfCEO ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠►Facebook | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2F4nBZk ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠►X |  ⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2BlGBAdAd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus newsletter:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.aubreymarcus.com/pages/email⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠To partner with the Aubrey Marcus Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus podcast:iTunes | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://apple.co/2lMZRCn ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://spoti.fi/2EaELZO ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stitcher | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2G8ccJt ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠IHeartRadio | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ihr.fm/3CiV4x3 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
