Podcasts about Caligula

Quand on pense à Caligula, on imagine un empereur dément, livré à toutes les extravagances sexuelles, organisant d'interminables banquets de débauche. Son nom est devenu synonyme d'orgie, de folie, de décadence. Mais cette image est-elle historiquement fondée, ou relève-t-elle en partie du fantasme collectif ?Caligula, né Gaius Julius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, accède au trône impérial en l'an 37 après J.-C., à seulement 24 ans. D'abord très populaire, son règne vire rapidement au cauchemar. Peu après son arrivée au pouvoir, il contracte une grave maladie. À partir de ce moment-là, selon plusieurs sources, son comportement devient instable, imprévisible, parfois même cruel.Il est probable que Caligula ait souffert de troubles mentaux, peut-être liés à une encéphalite ou une forme sévère d'épilepsie. Ce dérèglement aurait pu exacerber des comportements extrêmes : impulsivité, violences, dérives sexuelles… Les historiens modernes s'interrogent sur l'origine médicale de sa conduite. Dans ce contexte, ses excès sexuels — réels ou exagérés — pourraient relever de troubles psychiques autant que d'une volonté de dominer ou de choquer.Les orgies romaines, au sens où on l'entend aujourd'hui — des fêtes sexuelles débridées —, sont souvent exagérées par les sources anciennes, notamment Suétone et Dion Cassius, deux historiens aux récits très colorés… mais aussi très critiques envers les empereurs qu'ils dépeignent, surtout ceux qui ont été renversés ou assassinés.Dans le cas de Caligula, ces auteurs rapportent qu'il aurait :Transformé son palais en maison de plaisir,Commis l'inceste avec ses sœurs, en particulier Drusilla,Forcé les femmes de sénateurs à coucher avec lui,Organisé des banquets mêlant vin, nourriture et orgies sexuelles.Mais attention : ces récits relèvent en partie de ce qu'on appelle la « légende noire » impériale. Après son assassinat en 41, à peine quatre ans après son accession au trône, son image est volontairement salie pour justifier son élimination et la transition de pouvoir. Décrire un empereur comme un monstre sexuel et politique permet de rassurer l'opinion romaine… et de mieux valoriser son successeur.Ce portrait sulfureux sera entretenu pendant des siècles. Littérature, théâtre et surtout cinéma — comme le film controversé Caligula (1979) — renforcent cette image d'un tyran obsédé par la chair. Mais derrière cette figure mythifiée, la réalité historique est sans doute plus nuancée.Caligula fascine encore parce qu'il incarne la frontière fragile entre pouvoir absolu, folie et fantasme collectif.

In this episode of the Ancient Warfare Podcast, Marc De Santis talks to historian and author Lindsay Powell about his latest book, Tiberius: The Reluctant Emperor, published by Pen and Sword. Often overshadowed by his predecessor Augustus and his notorious successor Caligula, Tiberius is one of Rome's most enigmatic emperors. Lindsay delves into the life and reign of this complex figure—his military career, political challenges, and strained relationships within the Julio-Claudian dynasty. Was Tiberius truly the brooding recluse history remembers, or have we misunderstood the man who ruled the Roman Empire for over two decades?   Join us on Patron patreon.com/ancientwarfarepodcast

It's day 37 and Orange Caligula waited until we were sleeping to have his oligarch bought and paid for Republican Congress vote to have a "Budget Reconciliation" measure. It opened the door way and the first thing they are taking is Medicaid. Medicaid provides health care for 71 MILLION Americans. 70% of people in nursing homes are in Medicaid Beds - this puts them on the street. 12 MILLION people have Medicaid as a supplement to their Medicare. These are WORKING, Poor and retired people. These are helpless people that need Medicaid to SURVIVE. And Mike Johnson puts on his "I'm a FAKE Christian" persona and passes it in the name of God?

TODAY: Ani joins us to discuss a perplexing dilemma causing vigorous debate online: Do you have to take your daughter fishing even though she's basically a woman and might cramp your style? A mother writes to reddit explaining her daughter no longer wants to spend time with her dad after he refused to take her on a "guys only" fishing trip. Is the daughter really hurt, or is the mother just cheating on her husband? ALSO: We look at Teamsters president Sean O'Brien's recent comments about Right to Work and his support for a labor secretary who defends the anti-union policy. What are teamsters getting out of O'Brien's support for this labor secretary? Is it worth legitimizing the right wing administration? We dredge the depths of Teamster and UPS facebook groups to gauge rank and file reaction to O'Brien's budding relationship with the reactionary forces in Trump's camp and uncover some not-so-convincing arguments for RTW from union members themselves.

You know when trrump picked never trumper JD Vance as his VP, I have to say i was really surprised. Up until that point, i was just real sad that i spent money on his boo - which I never finished. See it had all of the problems needing an answer and toward the end, i could see that it was just a book about victim blaming. So i recycled that POS so no one else would have to read it.

The sparks before the ignition of war.By FinalStand. Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels.Time is not your enemy any more than breathing and your heartbeat are inconvenient."Aya, Why don't you go help Saku," I rechanneled Aya's boundless energy. "Back in the day, every noble was attended to by squires who took care of their gear and served that noble as body servants. In turn, she taught them the art of war." Sakuniyas shot me a nasty look.Aya poked her head between Pamela and Miyako."That sounds like fun," she met Saku's glacial chill with a warm spring breeze."I don't want their help," she grumbled."It sounds like free labor," Pamela smirked."I said I don't want their help," Saku snarled."Okay," I rolled my eyes. "Aya, Fatal Squirts, attention!" They all looked at me. "I command you, as your Celestial Potentate Poohbah, to stare at Sakuniyas until she gives you a task of a personal, to her, nature to do. Get at it."Four sets of precocious, will-eroding cuteness assaulted the Assyrian Queen, victor of a hundred battles and skirmishes."You are despicable," was Saku's chosen acidic barb."I second that motion," Pamela patted me on the back. "I keep finding myself being prouder and prouder of you, every day. Stop it," she teased me.None of those words dampened my mood, or my plan."How much longer is this flight going to take?" Saku groused."Four hours," I lied. It was way closer to two.To my way of thinking, it wasn't like she could get much angrier with me after she discovered my ruse. (I was wrong. She could and did. I'm an idiot.) Saku shook her head, and the task-mastering began. An hour and forty-five minutes later, the pilot alerted us that we were ten minutes from our final approach. Bits and pieces of her armor were all over the front seats and the floor of the exit-way space.Diligent little fingers were still polishing and checking straps for signs of excessive wear or fabric fatigue. Their 'noble' hovered over them, pointing out the right way to do things and what they were doing wrong. Her congratulating them for doing a good job was rather non-Amazon of her, but the kids ate it up.With the ten minute warning still hanging in the air, my duplicity inspired Saku to finally flip out. I was pretty sure she didn't think through what she was doing. She simply drew her 22cm/9in blade and threw it at my face. Miyako caught it between her hands, an effortless clap, fuck."Four hours!" Saku howled at me. "You said we had four hours, I could have held them off for two!""Why do you think I lied to you?" I kept my amusement out of my tone because I was rather attached to the idea of my wagging tongue not being cut out of my mouth.It wasn't lost on us that every member of my SD team was alert and had blades drawn (firefights on planes in mid-flight is severely frowned upon) and were staring at her. I wanted to tell Rachel to 'stand down', except that would be unfair. I wasn't 100% sure Saku was done being furious with me.Telling Rachel to set aside her instincts was something I tried to keep a minimum, only to be used when it I was forced to take in the bigger picture."What is going on here?" Rachel asked with professional calm. So, I told her the truth, the real truth."Oh," Rachel grunted. She gave a motion for her team to rest easy then came my way."Knife," she held out a hand to Miyako who instantly gave it over, pommel first. Rachel deftly flipped it over so she was holding the razor sharp blade then smacked me on the top of my head, hard."Ow, " I whined. "That hurt.""It was supposed to," Rachel glared. She walked down the aisle to Saku, returning her blade."Did you just smack him in the head?" Saku was trying to make sense of what she'd seen."Yes," Rachel nodded."He screwed up and I impressed upon him to not do it again. As you might guess, this is a fairly regular occurrence with him. We all take wicked-fine pleasure in that part of his education.""But you are his bodyguards, is he really the Head of House Ishara, or was that a lie as well?" Saku was still confused by her prideful arrogance and how I was misplacing my own."Sakuniyas, Cáel was not raised in our culture. He has only been a member of the Host for a few weeks. This is not to belittle his impressive education," Pamela intervened. "Both he, and those of the House who know him, agree that the occasional physical chastisement works better than words alone.""You could reward me with sex," I muttered. "Positive reinforcement, ""Forty-six days, Bitch," Rachel growled."You are ferocious in battle, fearless and clever," Saku turned back to me. "Why do you put up with this constant degradation?""Degradation? I'm not insulted by what Rachel did or said," I retorted. "She is trying to teach me things I need to know if I'm going to survive. I respect her superior knowledge in her professional capacity," I continued. "I don't get upset when people tease, taunt, or challenge Cáel 'Wakko' Ishara, that's me, if you are confused.I save my indignation for those who scorn Dot Ishara, Yakko Ishara and all members of House Ishara, past and present. Quite frankly, being disrespectful to me is actually rather difficult because I only care about the sensibilities of a handful of people.""How can any warriors follow a leader into battle if that person has no pride and never shies away from shame?And besides, what is this Wakko/Dot/Yakko nonsense," Saku persisted. "Fatal Squirts, start assembling my armor." Her attention was split between me and her panoply."Hello," I snickered. "I'm a male Amazon. The fact that I haven't run for my life way before now is all the heroic background check anyone should require.Doubting my common sense actually makes sense. Doubting my courage, or loyalty is idiotic in too many ways to count. As for revealing the hallowed and revered enigmatic occult appellations of my House, " I started."Get him!" Tiger Lily showed some faux-outrage."Shit!" I cried out as Delilah, Tiger Lily and the rest of the SD swarmed me. Pamela and Miyako were of no help whatsoever. I could not express my joy more at the resulting physical abuse and humiliation aimed my way. I was tickled. Yes, my Kick-Ass, full-blood, natural born killers pinned me down and tickled me until I nearly peed on myself.In a very short period of time, we'd shared some really nerve-racking moments. Dad dying, my showdown with Hayden, being mugged by Carrig and the rest of the crap that rained down blow after blow once I came out of my coma. They had taken me numerous times to the hospital and had to sit back helplessly while I suffered. Yet, I refused to be repressed by circumstance.I fought for our people, OUR people now, both with the Earth  and  Sky in shared counsel and the Seven Pillars on the battlefield. Rachel hadn't given me word-one of a reprimand for leaving Charlotte to raise the alarm while I rushed into danger. I was an Amazon in her eyes. Charlotte could fix the phone. Miyako and I could not. The bridge had to be secured immediately.We couldn't wait on Charlotte. I didn't even act as if what I did was all that brave. Rachel knew me far better now; she wouldn't make that mistake. Had I been able to fix the phone, I would have stayed and sent Charlotte. Had the whole team been there and Rachel told me to stay, I would have stayed while they ran into the fight.No. The situation hadn't allowed that, so I had killed a number of men and been wounded. The backside of my right thigh had merely been grazed (which my normally mangled left side found to be grossly unfair.) That was another scar to add to my 'sexy'. I had fought in my own insane manner and was alive solely because Saku had decided to shoot another man instead of me.Even after I knew who she was, I had allied with her and charged the rear of the enemy troop convoy. In the after-battle analysis, they weren't sure how many Seven Pillar Special Forces I had killed, both in the gulch and when I annihilated the back section of the attack column, and took my impromptu flying lesson.Credit for destroying the bridge jacks, thus making the BBQ a carnal cookout featuring Chinese 'Long-Pig', was still hanging out there as well. Rachel and company were still pissed with me despite all that. Why? On a purely personal level, they realized they would miss me if I got myself killed. They were not supposed to feel that way about their protectee.I certainly wasn't their first protective detail, though they were starting to believe I'd be their last. No, I had done everything right, by going into harm's way, and they were furious with the universe for placing us in that situation. Since the universe wasn't offering itself up to be punished, it fell on me to soak up their pique.Delilah was simply picking on me because she could get away with it this time."You are all embarrassments," Saku remarked bitterly once my screams began breathless pleas for mercy. "The Host has fallen a great way since my day." What a killjoy. I finally got my breath back."And the Queen on the floor of the Royal chambers, pushing around toy chariots with her two eldest sons and a child-playmate, was the height of decorum."Well, if looks could kill, I would have never made my nineteenth birthday, so Saku's glare was just another walk in the park."That was a personal moment with my family. It was a very private moment," she sizzled."My Mother's line is, it is what it is. My Father was murdered. My Father's sister and I were never close. These people are my family and my choice of kin.""English," Pamela chided us."Having no family to call your own, you welcome so many that 'family' has no meaning," Saku angrily mocked my words.There was a hushed moment then everyone but the three other Squirts and Saku started laughing. The three kids didn't know me either."By what metric do you measure family by?" I snickered."On his third day on the job, Fehér mén (Aya's pet name for me, White Stallion in the Magyar tongue, it is complicated) threw his body over my sisters and me to protect us," Aya said."He spared my foster-sister when she gravely insulted him," Mona volunteered. "He didn't know me. The Amazon, Constanza, would have died by anyone else's hand, except his. You may look down your nose at his mercy. As you do so, consider that it is his mercy that allows you to feel that way about him, and us right now." Whoa,"I have never seen him fight out of pride, or take joy in any combat," Rachel stared down Saku. "My only fear is that Cáel will get himself killed saving my life, or the life of any member of my team. He knows it is wrong. He knows I will be absolutely furious with him, and he accepts that. He is like no other Amazon I have ever known.We have limits. We follow orders. At our best, we put the welfare of the Host over our own survival. Not Ishara, Wakko Ishara. He follows the dictates of his house and those are to seek mercy and peace where appropriate. He is like no Amazon I have ever known, and I have zero doubt that he is one of the best Amazons I will ever know," she finished with a chuckle."I'm speaking my mind, aren't I?" she asked me."Afraid so, sorry about that," I apologized for corrupting her social skills."Saku, your mistake is that you confuse his caring about you and caring about your opinion of him," Pamela finished things up."Sakuniyas, I will work to honor my pledge to you. I will try to keep you alive because you can be a powerful ally of the Host, but also because it is the right thing to do," I enlightened her. "That doesn't make you all that special though. Personally I think you are a horrible, bitter bitch and lousy company for any non-masochist.I'm going to help you in the same way I'm going to help everyone else here. This is despite me feeling confident that not a single Amazon on this planet has a living father. They've never had brothers because their mothers murdered them. Your crappy attitude doesn't influence me one way, or the other. You are a horrible fucking person born to a horrible fucking race, my race, the Amazon Host.""You kill your fathers and sons," Delilah mumbled as she looked from face to face, finding not a single bit of denial, or shame. "I thought that was so much Greek bull's buttocks.""Nope," Aya shrugged. "Before I left for camp, Momma told me they put Daddy, my other Daddy, down when I was two." Kind of like Old Yeller, or Benji. "His name was Paul Twelve."Delilah looked at me with downright worrisome eyes."Yeah, I figured that out on day two on-the- job," I relayed to her. "For the past 2500 years, every male child of the Host has been tossed off a cliff to his death, or left out in the wilds for predators to devour. Every male they have kidnapped has been under a death sentence from the moment of capture.They tried to genetically breed their captive male population with Amazon females, but something went wrong. The males began passing on genetic defects that poisoned the race. In response, they have begun recruiting men, such as myself, and exterminating their old male breeding populace.Initially, I didn't run because I was sure they would hunt me down and kill me. Later, later I came to like enough of the Host to decide that knowing what was going on meant I couldn't let it slide. I couldn't leave this issue for someone else to tackle. I know I'm facing long odds, yet I'll never succeed if I don't try," I wrapped up my little my 'Cáel's Amazon Primer' lecture."Okay, okay, Cáel you are blood nuts, and hellishly brave. The rest of you are just hellish, killing your own kin as infants or if they get too old," Delilah sputtered. "That's plain wrong.""I had sons," Saku stated. "They grew into fine, strong warriors. My daughters married into the nobility.""Delilah, we don't expect you to understand our culture. Twice in our people's history, men have tried to eliminate our society, stealing our homes and property, and enslaving our children and sisters. We let down our guard once, and that nearly destroyed us, except we now have Cáel and a better understanding of what happened that second time," Tiger Lily educated Delilah."It turned out that not all males betrayed us. No, when we needed them the most, they sacrificed themselves for the welfare of our people and we repaid that loyalty with anger and barbarism. That is a burden we have carried all these centuries without understanding it. Only within the past month has the real truth about the Second Betrayal become known.Many of us are now re-evaluating the dictates of our faith concerning men and sons. After all, Cael is the descendent of Amazons of a First House, dating back to the Trojan Wars. He has been welcomed by his ancestors and his goddess, Dot Ishara," she completed."What is it with the Dot, Wakko and, ""Everyone buckle up," the pilot announced over the intercom. "We are on our final approach." Saku and the Squirts had her armor in some kind of order, we buckled up and let the plane coast on down to earth."Delilah and Cáel, since our 'vacation' was cut short, we haven't been able to bring your personal effects back from Africa yet," Rachel told us."Also, there will be four of Javiera's people meeting us in the hangar," she added. "We have been told to view them as non-hostiles.""Oh joy," Pamela muttered then, "There is nothing to worry about folks.""What? Me worry?" I goofy grinned her way.(Governments, horrendous enemies and ruthlessly evil friends)Four SUVs waited for us in the wide-open hangar. No sooner had the pilot given us the 'green light', than Rachel released the door/stairs mechanism and Charlotte began her decent. We had the camp FN P-90's, not the older Havenstone UMP 40's, so that was the weapon whose sights she was looking down as her eyes scanned the room. Five people. Four SUVs.Rachel went next with me right behind her. My SD's precautions turned our guests from a rather annoyed-casual to alert-angry. Standing with our two standard Mercedes GL550's was Wiesława of House Živa. A sole guardian indicated to me that an ass-kicking was in the offing elsewhere. The Golden Mare, Saint Marie was gathering the Havenstone Security Detail for some purpose, which meant she could only spare one more warrior for me.I was fine with that. Not only did I feel bad about denying her the four ladies I had, I knew we were going into this global conflict outnumbered and out-financed. The Seven Pillars had gotten at least one blow in by striking at the Amazon summer camp. I had every reason to believe other unexpected attacks had occurred all across the globe.In the closest black Tahoe SUV (didn't anyone use sedans anymore?) were two men in modestly tailored, off-the-rack suits. One with buzz-cut gray-white hair, was closer to fifty than forty, was as tall as me (a bit over six feet) and close to my weight and build. That guy was pissed off.His partner was smaller (5ft 10in.) and lighter. He was also cocky with that 'I know more than you schmucks' air about him. Beside the farther SUV, a Range Rover (black, of course, I swore in that moment that if I ever got to have my own fleet of House Ishara SUV's, I was going with baby blue, just to fuck with people's heads), were two other men, one cultured and the other a bad-ass.

How cruel was Caligula? How depraved was Tiberius? And how monstrous was Nero? The dark reputations of these emperors owe a great deal to the Roman writer Suetonius, whose 121 AD work Lives of the Caesars offered intimate portraits of 12 rulers of Rome – from Julius Caesar to Domitian. The popular historian and podcaster Tom Holland has just produced a new translation of the Lives and he speaks to Rob Attar about the profound influence of Suetonius' work – and whether it's an example of ancient fake news.

Following the bloody assassination of the twenty-eight year old Emperor Caligula, Rome found herself without a leader. Who then should fill the enormous power vacuum left by the death of an emperor? Should Rome return to a Republic? Then, one overlooked candidate - a scion of the hallowed family of Augustus long lurking in the wings of imperial power - unexpectedly rose to the fore: Claudius, Caligula's uncle. Famed as a drooling idiot all his life, Claudius' apparent shortcomings had kept him safe from the ruthless ambitions of his family and enemies. But his life of anonymity would now be brought to an abrupt end, with a shocking coup led by the Praetorian Guard. The Praetorians, one of the most potent forces in Rome, feared the loss of the emperor's patronage, and so pulled him out from the curtain behind which he had been hiding, carried him to their camp, and declared him emperor. The reign that ensued - described in gory, glistening, salacious detail by the Roman historian Suetonius - would see Claudius dismantle his mask of imbecility to reveal himself clever and studious, but easily duped by his advisors, freemen, and wives alike. It would see him claim the conquest of Britain, increase the strength of the Roman army, fall foul of the senate, play cuckold in one of the most famous sexual scandals of all time, and marry his niece. All the while, the shadows of Nero's rise to supreme power were lengthening… Join Tom and Dominic for the mighty conclusion of their journey through the lives of Rome's first Caesars, as described in rich, technicolour by Suetonius, climaxing with the epic reign of Rome's most unexpected emperor: Claudius.

"Enough of the Princeps, what remains to be described, is the monster..." The Roman emperor Caligula endures as one of the most notorious figures in not only Roman history, but the history of the world. Famed as a byword for sexual degeneracy, cruelty and corruption, the account of his life written by the Roman historian Suetonius has, above all, enshrined him as such for posterity. Throughout the biography there is a whiff of dark comedy, as Caligula is cast as the ultimate demented caesar, corrupted absolutely by his absolute power and driven into depravity. Born of a sacred and illustrious bloodline to adored parents, his early life - initially so full of promise - was shadowed by tragedy, death, and danger, the members of his family picked off one by one by the emperor Tiberius. Nevertheless, Caligula succeeded, through his own cynical intelligence and cunning manipulation of public spectacle, to launch himself from the status of despised orphan, to that of master of Rome. Yet, before long his seemingly propitious reign, was spiralling into a nightmare of debauchery and terror…. Join Tom and Dominic as they discuss the most notorious emperor in Rome: Caligula, a man said to have slept with his sister, transformed his palace into a brothel, cruelly humiliated senators, and even made his horse into a consul. But what is the truth behind these horrific legends? Was Caligula really more monster than man...?  Pre-order Tom Holland's new translation of 'The Lives of the Caesars' here:  https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/279727/the-lives-of-the-caesars-by-suetonius/9780241186893 _______ Twitter: @TheRestHistory @holland_tom @dcsandbrook Producer: Theo Young-Smith Assistant Producer: Tabby Syrett + Aaliyah Akude Video Editor: Jack Meek Executive Producers: Jack Davenport + Tony Pastor Learn more about your ad choices.

'That megalomaniac upstart is rapidly degenerating into a latter-day Caligula!' Our review of Secret Army's gripping second series continues with John Brason's Russian Roulette: soon after hearing about the death of their leader Lisa, Lifeline have to contend with two Russian evaders, Brandt is asked to join a plot against Hitler, and Albert accepts Kessler's invite to a sinister garden party... While AJ realises just how much of the episode they had forgotten, Andy disagrees with himself from the past about both locations and musical instruments. The pair agree that the episode could also be called 'Natalie's Very Bad Day' and consider issues as diverse as: Alain's family and his share of the Muny farm; why everyone is suddenly and inexplicably calling Lisa, Yvette; the meaning of European hand gestures; and the decision not to subtitle the episode's plentiful Russian dialogue.  There's also Ryan's reaction on first viewing, Alex Wilcock considering both the episode's title and Kessler's return invitation to Albert, and Joanna from Australia who first watched the series at ten-years-old. The book that AJ mentions is The Nine by Gwen Strauss about a band of daring resistance women who escaped from Nazi Germany.  If you would like to contact us then please email us on, or send a voicenote to: secretarmypod@gmail.com or send us a message on Bluesky: AJ is on secretarmypod.bsky.social while Andy can be found at andypodding.bsky.social.

The Roman historian Suetonius' The Lives of the Caesars, written during the early imperial period of the Roman Empire, is a seminal biography covering the biographies of the early emperors of Rome, during two spectacular centuries of Roman history. Delving deep into the personal lives of the caesars and sparing no detail, no matter how prurient, pungent, explicit or salacious, it vividly captures Rome at the peak of her power, and those colourful individuals at the heart of everything. It is an unsettling yet fascinating portrait of the alien and the intimate, that sees some of history's most famous characters revealed as almost modern men, plotting a delicate line between private and public, respectability and suspicion. From the showmanship of Augustus, the first Caesar, and his convoluted family melodramas, to Tiberius, a monster in the historical record famed for his sexual misdeeds, to Caligula, who delighted in voyeuristic moral degeneracy, and the looming shadow of Nero; all will be revealed… Join Tom and Dominic as they launch into Suetonius and the lives of Rome's most infamous emperors, illuminating a world of sex and violence that both venerates, deifies and condemns absolute power. When the curtain is lifted, what deprivation lurks behind the majesty of Rome? And who was the real Suetonius, the man laying it all bare?

With pardons for violent thugs and unprovoked threats against traditional allies, the U.S. is rapidly turning into the world's first banana republic super power!Trump has issued pardons for a notorious international drug dealer, a man convicted of possessing child pornography and hundreds of violent extremists convicted for the January 6th attack on the Capitol. He has spread chaos and fear throughout the government, firing senior federal officials and even nobbling cancer research, as well as initiating initiated trumped-up investigations into the Biden administration. He has even threatened to abolish the country's federal dIsaster response body, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, FEMA. Trump has also given officials unprecedented authority to expedite deportations for up to one million immigrants who entered the country with government authorisation through two key Biden-era programmes.....And abroad!Trump has already threatened allies - notably Denmark over Greenland - and predictably made threatening noises about aid to Ukraine. He has pulled the U.S. out of the Paris climate accords and the World Heath Organisation. Monstrously, he has suggested ethnically cleansing Gaza of Palestinians and dumping them in Egypt and Jordan. He's slapped 25% tariffs on Columbia for refusing planeloads of deported illegal immigrants.

Discussion on Black GM's and HC's in the NFL

In this special, in between seasons, compilation, we mash together our previous four episodes about the last book of the New Testament. The finest final chapter. The most metal maelstrom of mayhem and madness. The epilogue to end all epilogues. The volume of vengeful violence that is, the Book of Revelation! Volume 1 contains the previously released episodes,Book of Revelation 00 Prologue of the EpilogueBook of Revelation 01 First Chapter of the Final ChapterBook of Revelation 02 Where Satan DwellsBook of Revelation 03 I Will Come In To Him Many apologists, theologians, academics, historians and scholars have pondered the inclusion of this Lovecraftian hallucination in the final draft of the Chri$tian Bible. We will look at the various theories as they come up.  The prologue includes cameo appearances from, The Bible, the Rapture, John of Patmos, Roman Emperors Domitian, Vespasian, Titus, Nero and Caligula. We'll also meet Epaphroditus, Eusebius, Josephus and D.H. Lawrence. Did you know you are blessed just to read it or hear it read? Did you now this book is a cornerstone of conspiracy theories like Flat Earth Theory and the Holy Trinity? Does it allude to the Holy Ghost or the Archangels? What's the deal with John and the number seven? Will we see the saviour coming in the clouds? Will he or won't he have a two edged sword in his mouth? Will he sound like a fart or diarrhoea? Did you know it gives you a description including but not limited to Christ's breasts? And why does John mansplain away his poetic metaphors? I chapter two, John will explain to the church of Ephesus just how much the ultimate creator god of the entire universe is upset about a wife swapping cult of Nicolaitanes. John explains quantum physics to the church in Smyrna and proves once and for all Jesus is Schrodinger's Cat.John doxes Satan's home in Pergamon.And among the church in Thyatira, we finally meet, Jezebel! And she does not disappoint. She repented not!Is this book prophecy of a future still to come?Is this book a coded message of rebellion for the early Chri$tian freedom fighters in their struggle with the Roman Empire?Is this book xenophobic propaganda to stop Hellenising?Who cares? It's got Hell, Armageddon, Antipas, the brazen bull, Zeus, Balaam, Balac, the children of Israel, Canaanites, angels, a talking donkey, fornication, Motorhead, Lemmy, Frankenfurter, Sardis, playstation, Christmas, Philadelphia, David, Cheech, Chong, Cheech and Chong, Billy Graham, Richard Nixon, Ron DeSantis, Disney World, robux, Laodiceans, Donald Trump, Mordor and the Roman Empire  #666 #SketchComedy #Sketch #Comedy #Sketch Comedy #Atheist #Science #History #Atheism #Antitheist #ConspiracyTheory #Conspiracy #Conspiracies #Sceptical #Scepticism #Mythology #Religion #Devil #Satan #Bible #Skeptic #Debunk #SatanIsMySuperhero #Podcast #funny #sketch #skit #comedy #comedyshow #comedyskits #HeavyMetal #weird #RomanEmpire #Rome #AncientRome #Romans #RomanEmperor

[SEGMENT 2-1] Leftism on Display 1   Cherize Theron adopted two Black boys. What are the odds that BOTH are transsexual?   Putin: “Not only Trump was subjected to humiliating court procedures, accusations, and so on, but his family was attacked as well. His children were attacked. Gangsters don't do this in Russia. When criminal gangs fight, they don't touch children and women. It's men who fight among themselves. This reconfirms how low the political system of the United States has fallen.”   Bill Clinton has been officially named as Epstein's most prolific pedophile in leaked court docs. DOGE is going to audit the IRS. What would you pay to sit in on that audit? Musk should TELEVISE that! PPV. Bigger than the Tyson fight, and much better…   [SEGMENT 2-2] Leftism on Display 2   [X] SB – Chuck Todd mad at the Bidens   Chuck Todd Finally Wakes Up—But Where Was He Before? Chuck Todd has finally decided to join the "Bash Biden" bandwagon. His recent commentary criticizing Joe and Jill Biden for the "decision" to appoint Joe as president in 2020 feels like the moral equivalent of calling the cops 30 minutes after you witness your neighbor's house get robbed…by your cousin. Todd even referenced some report detailing how Hunter Biden turned his sister-in-law-turned-lover Hallie Biden into a crackhead. This, apparently, was news to Todd—seven years after the report was published. What rock has he been living under? Did he not glance at the Hunter Biden laptop evidence, a 600-plus page dossier of corruption and debauchery, at a level that would make Caligula blush? Leftist Amnesia: A Curious Phenomenon Why are Leftists suddenly having their "come to Jesus" moments regarding the Bidens? The signs were always there, glowing like neon in the Vegas desert. Remember the scandal about Navy, Hunter Biden's daughter? Even after paternity was proven, it took what felt like an act of Congress to get Joe and Jill to publicly acknowledge her existence. And even then, they did so with the enthusiasm of a cat being forced into a bathtub.  [SEGMENT 2-3] Leftism on Display 3 The media let this slide, much like they let everything else slide. For years, they painted Joe Biden as America's lovable “Uncle Joe” or “Grandpa Joe.” Never mind that Grandpa Joe has a dark side that rivals some Netflix true-crime specials. A Family Straight Out of Jerry Springer Joe Biden's lies about his first wife's tragic death are well-documented. The narrative he spun—that a drunk truck driver killed her—has been debunked. The truth? She intentionally drove into the path of an 18-wheeler in what appears to have been a murder-suicide attempt. She tried to take the kids with her, sparing only Joe. And yet, nobody in the media has ever asked the obvious question: What drove a woman to such desperation? What was going on in the Biden household that would make a mother consider such a horrific act? The lack of intellectual curiosity about this speaks volumes. And then there's the sniffing. Oh, the sniffing. Joe Biden has a documented history of invading personal space, creeping behind women, and indulging in hair-sniffing escapades that no HR department in America would tolerate. Unlike the politically manufactured accusations thrown at Brett Kavanaugh, the women who have accused Biden of inappropriate behavior are mostly Democrats. The silence from the Left on this has been deafening. Joe Biden: Past His Political Expiration Date Let's not kid ourselves—Joe Biden is a product of media manipulation. For decades, people like Chuck Todd propped him up despite his gaffes, his lies, and his baggage. They ignored his corruption and his incompetence because he was useful to their narrative. Now that Biden has outlived his usefulness, the knives are coming out. But the outrage, so conveniently timed, reeks of hypocrisy. Where was this energy when Biden was selling access to the vice presidency or strong-arming Ukraine to protect his son's shady business dealings? The media's sudden pivot to criticize Biden is too little, too late. It's like a lifeguard jumping into the pool long after the drowning victim has sunk. Leftist Media: Accessories to the Crime Let's be clear: Biden didn't stumble into the presidency by accident. He was shoved there, carried on the shoulders of a compliant media and a political machine desperate to defeat Donald Trump. They ignored every red flag, every ethical lapse, and every questionable decision in Biden's long, checkered career. The irony is rich. Leftists propped up a man who represents everything they claim to despise: privilege, corruption, and entitlement. Biden has enriched his family through political connections, manipulated systems to his advantage, and treated women poorly. Yet the Left conveniently ignored all of this because it didn't fit their narrative. The Family Circus The Bidens are a real-life Jerry Springer episode. From Hunter's laptop of horrors to Ashley Biden's diary entries about uncomfortable showers with her father, this family has enough scandals to keep tabloids busy for years. And yet, this is the family the Left presented as the moral compass of America. If that doesn't enrage every American paying attention, what will? Chuck Todd and his ilk don't deserve a pat on the back for finally acknowledging what's been obvious to the rest of us for years. Their selective outrage is as transparent as it is self-serving. Joe Biden is—and always has been—a scumbag. His family's dysfunction is not just a footnote; it's a glaring indictment of the judgment of those who propped him up. The media's belated criticism is nothing more than an attempt to rewrite history and salvage what little credibility they have left. The truth is, the Left created the Biden presidency. Now, as it implodes, they want to distance themselves from the fallout. But the damage is done, and no amount of retroactive handwringing will change that.         Leftism: A Cancer Eating at the Fabric of Society Leftism has metastasized into every facet of our society, leaving in its wake a trail of destruction, hypocrisy, and, above all, irony. A Joe Biden presidency stands as Exhibit A, a perfect storm of incompetence and corruption. And if you think it couldn't get worse, consider the looming specter of a Kamala Harris presidency. The mere thought could shake America's foundations for decades.  [SEGMENT 2-4] Leftism on Display 4 [X] SB – Alan Dershowitz on Penny case But now, as Donald Trump ushers common sense back into the political arena, we're starting to see just how far Leftism has swung the pendulum—and how catastrophic its consequences have been. Take the case of Daniel Penny. A decorated Marine who acted to protect fellow subway passengers in New York City is now on trial for it. The coroner's report confirmed that Penny's actions didn't kill the individual; he merely incapacitated him. Yet Penny faces prison because he's white, and the perpetrator was Black. Contrast this with a Black man in a similar case who was spared conviction because the judge ruled his troubled background excused his actions. Switch the races in Penny's case, and it wouldn't have made the evening news. Then there's Derek Chauvin, the police officer vilified and convicted in the George Floyd case. The coroner's report revealed Floyd died of a fentanyl overdose and his own refusal to comply with officers. But none of that mattered in the court of public opinion, shaped by Leftist narratives. Chauvin became a sacrificial lamb to appease the woke mob. This warped sense of justice isn't limited to law enforcement. A pedestrian in NYC was recently stabbed to death by a 13-year-old migrant after refusing to take a photo. The killer shouldn't even have been in the country. But thanks to Leftist policies, America has become a sanctuary for lawlessness. The Generation of Freaks Perhaps the most egregious legacy of Leftism is the cultural havoc it's wreaked on an entire generation. We now have kids who don't know their gender and are utterly confused about sexuality—thanks to the normalization of extreme ideologies. This isn't progress; it's chaos. Schools push gender ideology onto children barely old enough to read. Drag queens are heralded as role models while parents who question this madness are branded as bigots. We've gone from celebrating achievement to applauding confusion. The Cult of Mediocrity In Leftist America, mediocrity and failure aren't just tolerated—they're rewarded. Incompetent leaders are celebrated as visionaries. Think of how Kamala Harris is hailed as a trailblazer despite her record of gaffes and failure. Or how bureaucrats and academics rake in awards and millions for getting everything wrong. Meanwhile, true grit and perseverance are derided. J.D. Vance, who rose above poverty and a drug-addicted mother, is labeled “privileged” because of his race. Yet Hunter Biden, the 54-year-old lawyer born into unimaginable privilege, is painted as a hapless victim of circumstance. The Left's oppression Olympics have turned logic on its head. A rich white man like Hunter Biden can now identify as an oppressed trans-Guatemalan midget quadriplegic on the victim scale. Crime Pays Leftism's impact on public safety is equally damning. Crime is rampant, yet cities defund the police and vilify those who uphold the law. Criminals are coddled while law-abiding citizens are left to fend for themselves. Consider the irony: a Marine who acted heroically is in prison, while violent offenders roam free thanks to progressive district attorneys. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

[SEGMENT 2-1] Leftism on Display 1   Cherize Theron adopted two Black boys. What are the odds that BOTH are transsexual?   Putin: “Not only Trump was subjected to humiliating court procedures, accusations, and so on, but his family was attacked as well. His children were attacked. Gangsters don't do this in Russia. When criminal gangs fight, they don't touch children and women. It's men who fight among themselves. This reconfirms how low the political system of the United States has fallen.”   Bill Clinton has been officially named as Epstein's most prolific pedophile in leaked court docs. DOGE is going to audit the IRS. What would you pay to sit in on that audit? Musk should TELEVISE that! PPV. Bigger than the Tyson fight, and much better…   [SEGMENT 2-2] Leftism on Display 2   [X] SB – Chuck Todd mad at the Bidens   Chuck Todd Finally Wakes Up—But Where Was He Before? Chuck Todd has finally decided to join the "Bash Biden" bandwagon. His recent commentary criticizing Joe and Jill Biden for the "decision" to appoint Joe as president in 2020 feels like the moral equivalent of calling the cops 30 minutes after you witness your neighbor's house get robbed…by your cousin. Todd even referenced some report detailing how Hunter Biden turned his sister-in-law-turned-lover Hallie Biden into a crackhead. This, apparently, was news to Todd—seven years after the report was published. What rock has he been living under? Did he not glance at the Hunter Biden laptop evidence, a 600-plus page dossier of corruption and debauchery, at a level that would make Caligula blush? Leftist Amnesia: A Curious Phenomenon Why are Leftists suddenly having their "come to Jesus" moments regarding the Bidens? The signs were always there, glowing like neon in the Vegas desert. Remember the scandal about Navy, Hunter Biden's daughter? Even after paternity was proven, it took what felt like an act of Congress to get Joe and Jill to publicly acknowledge her existence. And even then, they did so with the enthusiasm of a cat being forced into a bathtub.  [SEGMENT 2-3] Leftism on Display 3 The media let this slide, much like they let everything else slide. For years, they painted Joe Biden as America's lovable “Uncle Joe” or “Grandpa Joe.” Never mind that Grandpa Joe has a dark side that rivals some Netflix true-crime specials. A Family Straight Out of Jerry Springer Joe Biden's lies about his first wife's tragic death are well-documented. The narrative he spun—that a drunk truck driver killed her—has been debunked. The truth? She intentionally drove into the path of an 18-wheeler in what appears to have been a murder-suicide attempt. She tried to take the kids with her, sparing only Joe. And yet, nobody in the media has ever asked the obvious question: What drove a woman to such desperation? What was going on in the Biden household that would make a mother consider such a horrific act? The lack of intellectual curiosity about this speaks volumes. And then there's the sniffing. Oh, the sniffing. Joe Biden has a documented history of invading personal space, creeping behind women, and indulging in hair-sniffing escapades that no HR department in America would tolerate. Unlike the politically manufactured accusations thrown at Brett Kavanaugh, the women who have accused Biden of inappropriate behavior are mostly Democrats. The silence from the Left on this has been deafening. Joe Biden: Past His Political Expiration Date Let's not kid ourselves—Joe Biden is a product of media manipulation. For decades, people like Chuck Todd propped him up despite his gaffes, his lies, and his baggage. They ignored his corruption and his incompetence because he was useful to their narrative. Now that Biden has outlived his usefulness, the knives are coming out. But the outrage, so conveniently timed, reeks of hypocrisy. Where was this energy when Biden was selling access to the vice presidency or strong-arming Ukraine to protect his son's shady business dealings? The media's sudden pivot to criticize Biden is too little, too late. It's like a lifeguard jumping into the pool long after the drowning victim has sunk. Leftist Media: Accessories to the Crime Let's be clear: Biden didn't stumble into the presidency by accident. He was shoved there, carried on the shoulders of a compliant media and a political machine desperate to defeat Donald Trump. They ignored every red flag, every ethical lapse, and every questionable decision in Biden's long, checkered career. The irony is rich. Leftists propped up a man who represents everything they claim to despise: privilege, corruption, and entitlement. Biden has enriched his family through political connections, manipulated systems to his advantage, and treated women poorly. Yet the Left conveniently ignored all of this because it didn't fit their narrative. The Family Circus The Bidens are a real-life Jerry Springer episode. From Hunter's laptop of horrors to Ashley Biden's diary entries about uncomfortable showers with her father, this family has enough scandals to keep tabloids busy for years.

"Strength and Honor." It's our Black Friday episode, and we're celebrating Galicked this week and are discussing Ridley Scott's long-awaited Gladiator II. An old-fashioned sword and sandal epic that both the gays and straights can equally enjoy, this might not match the prestige of its Oscar-winning predecessor, but there's a lot of fun going on here. It's nice to see this type of historic blockbuster embrace its gay Ancient Rome roots and lean more into the camp of its material. Get us a fan, because we're verklempt from all of the insanely hot men on display here. We'd risk it all for a night with our boy Paul Mescal, and daddy Pedro Pascal is the type of man we'd have on our bedroom wall growing up. Even though this movie may not exactly pass the Bechdel Test, Connie Nielsen more than makes up for it as the fierce Lucilla. We're also all here for the comeback of queer villains. Joseph Quinn and Fred Hechinger chew up the scenery as two twink brother Emperors adding some Caligula-level hijinks, complete with a monkey in a dress and a bisexual harem. We discuss the Denzel Washington hinted man on man kiss left on the cutting room floor, some brief thoughts on Wicked, and the iconic Liz Taylor 2001 Golden Globe appearance.

Dive into the dramatic saga of Caligula, one of Rome's most controversial emperors, in our latest podcast episode. From his noble birth in 12 CE into the powerful Julio-Claudian dynasty to his alarming descent into tyranny, this episode explores Caligula's complex reign and the extreme behaviors that marked his rule. Join us as we unravel the intricate events that led from his promising start as the beloved son of a popular general to his ultimate ruin and the enduring legacy of his notorious rule.

Emperor Caligula was perhaps the most notorious of Roman Emperors, making Diocletian look reasonable by comparison.

SERIES 3 EPISODE 69: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: Forget for a moment "Attorney General" Matt Gaetz and the bottom falling out of the market for prosecuting men who have sex with underaged girls. Forget for a moment associating Tulsi Gabbard with the word "Intelligence." Forget the prospect of Press Secretary Sage Steele. Even forget Trump's plan to adjourn both houses of Congress so he can appoint an entire cabinet without a single hearing and the Republicans rushing to bark like seals as the Lame Duck Dictator starts rolling out the Third Reich. The lead story was a different 'third.' “I suspect I won't be running again,” Trump said to his newly elected Republican House slaves, “unless you say ‘he's good, we got to figure something else” and every news organization reported he was joking and kidding and trolling and - spoiler alert - he's NOT. He's NOT kidding. He's intending to stay in office and if we're nice to him he'll let us elect him again. They've been working on this for more than a year: it's a re-interpretation of the 22nd Amendment and the two-term limit, claiming it means three CONSECUTIVE terms, or going around it and getting him by any one of four different backdoors.  That Trump is emboldened enough to go public with his "kidding" tells you how badly he has misread the shock this would create. Oh yes, everyone reported, he's a kidder. He's kidding. Ask Mike Pence how much of a kidder he is. MEANWHILE: Lincoln had his "Team of Rivals." Trump is building his "Team of Trifles." And the key appointment isn't Gaetz or Gabbard or Huckabee or any of these other empty vessels. It's Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense because when the protests against Trump starts and he wants the protestors to face U.S. Army tanks and be shot with your taxpayer bullets, the guy who is just crazy enough to order it is this lunatic Hegseth. B-Block (27:54): POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: Jack Smith will get out, and get out a report. Putin continues to turn the screws on Trump. At Mar-a-Lago, Elon Musk is "getting a little big for his britches" (Ozempic time!). Musk is also at war with Steve Bannon. Melania won't live at the White House. And one third of network news viewers voted for Trump so all the limp ABC/CBS/NBC coverage mattered more than we thought. C-Block (40:00): THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Olivia Nuzzi has suddenly backed off all her stalking claims against Ryan Lizza. Wait I'll get my dumpster-sized bag of popcorn. Tim Pool, Pine Cone. And the Idaho Republican who tells a Democrat to go back to where she comes from. You won't believe which minority group she belongs.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
