Podcasts about civilizations

For this mid-week podcast we welcome back Paul Kimball, and we discuss Roswell, Rendlesham Forest, and various other UFO cases. We discuss what Paul feels are the best cases and why. I have to apologize for some of the sound quality. Paul sounds fine, but for some reason, both of my microphones have me sounding like I am talking through a tin can. No idea what happened and nothing much I could do about it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Sphere is excited to engage our educator community in discussion about the factors that contributed to the rise and fall of some of humanity's greatest civilizations. Through a moderated discussion with author Johan Norberg, a Senior Fellow at the Cato Institute, we will explore seven of humanity's greatest civilizations—ancient Athens, the Roman Republic, Abbasid Baghdad, Song China, Renaissance Italy, the Dutch Republic and the Anglosphere—featured in his new book, Peak Human. We will examine their contributions to societal progress during each of their golden ages and unpack valuable lessons we can learn from them. Following moderated discussion, we will walk through how to support student exploration of these topics with Sphere content author and alumnus Sean Kinnard. Hosted on Acast.

In January 1959, ten experienced young skiers set out for Mount Otorten in the far north of Russia. While one of the skiers fell ill and returned, the remaining nine lost their way and ended up on another mountain slope known as Kholat Syakhl (or 'Mountain of the Dead').On the night of 1st February 1959 something or someone caused the skiers to flee their tent in such terror that they used knives to slash their way out. Search parties were sent out and their bodies were found, some with massive internal injuries but with no external marks on them. The autopsy stated the violent injuries were caused by 'an unknown compelling force'. The area was sealed off for years by the authorities and the full events of that night remained unexplained. Using original research carried out in Russia and photographs from the skier's cameras, Keith McCloskey attempts to explain what happened to the nine young people who lost their lives in the mysterious 'Dyatlov Pass Incident'. His book is entitled, Mountain of the Dead and we speak to Keith about the details of what happened, what we do know, and the many theories as to what may have happened to them.

In this episode of Highway to Higher Ed, Alex talks to Hamzah Henshaw of Five Before College. Born and raised in Boston, he accepted Islam in 1994 while attending St. Mark's, a suburban boarding school in Southborough, MA. He graduated from Harvard College, where heconcentrated in Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations with a minor in economics. He began his career in the field of Islamic Finance, working for Rockefeller in New York and Saudi Arabia. Hamza transitioned to the field of education and got various opportunities to teach at the top institutes around the world. He has been Dean of students at Al-Noor Academy overseeing the dual enrollment program, and serving as the college/guidance counselor for the high school. During COVID, when everything shutdown and whole the world turned to online, he began to share his experiences online and helped thousands of students in various parts of the world with diverse backgrounds. That became a stepping stone for his current initiative: Five Before College. Alex and Hamzah discuss; Hamzah's background and path into teaching, how he transition into college counselling, methodology in his consulting, helping Islamic students pursue higher education while remaining true to their faith, his impressions of the landscape evolution in the current age and finally shares a story of a students college essay which got him a call from the President of Mexico.

The Failure of the Hittite Empire: Plague, Poor Leadership, and Destruction AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations; 1177 BC, the year civilization collapsed The Hittite Empire failed due to internal decay, including a plague that ravaged the royal family and subsequent poor leadership. Their capital, Hattusa, was attacked and burned, possibly by the Kashka. Although the main empire vanished, rump states like Carchemish in North Syria survived as Neo-Hittites. These resilient trading centers, however, were continuously forced to pay tribute to aggressive Neo-Assyrian kings like Shalmaneser III after battles such as Qarqar in 853 BC.

Factors of Survival: Antifragility, River Systems, and IPCC Resilience Models AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations; 1177 BC, the year civilization collapsed Phoenicians demonstrated antifragility by flourishing in chaos, using trade wealth to buy off the threatening Neo-Assyrians. The Cypriots, though on an island, were later overwhelmed by the Assyrians. The survival of Egyptians, Assyrians, and Babylonians is partially attributed to their location on major river systems (Nile, Tigris/Euphrates), which the failed Hittites lacked. Resilience is analyzed using IPCC definitions: Phoenicians and Cypriots transformed, while Egyptians merely coped.

The Vulnerability of Mycenaeans and Minoans: Internal Decay and Collapse (Redux) AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations This discussion reiterates that the Minoans and Mycenaeans exemplify societies that did not survive the Bronze Age collapse, ranking them low on resilience. They are thought to have been fragile internally, collapsing under stress, potentially due to overextended ambitious construction projects. Their administrative writing (Linear B) offers no explanations for their demise, but names of their gods continued into the Iron Age.

The Vulnerability of Mycenaeans and Minoans: Internal Decay and Collapse AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations The Minoans and Mycenaeans are considered examples of societies that failed to survive the catastrophe. Though seemingly vibrant, they may have been vulnerable and rotted internally, collapsing when stressors hit, possibly due to overextension on ambitious construction projects. Writing from the era (Linear B) is purely administrative, providing no records of the reasons for their demise or leadership quality. Their societies vanish completely by the 11th century BC.

       The Antifragile Winners: Phoenician Trade and Cypriot Iron Innovation AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations Professor Cline identifies the Phoenicians and Cypriots as "antifragile" because they flourished during the chaos following the collapse. The Phoenicians, surviving Canaanites, took over Mediterranean trade, spread the alphabet (leading to Greek and Latin scripts), and founded colonies like Carthage. The Cypriots transitioned to iron work, sending technology and tools across the Mediterranean. Iron use was an innovation after the collapse, not its cause.

Egypt's Retreat and the Emergence of New Kingdoms in the Early Iron Age AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: 1177 BC, the year civilization collapsed; After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations Following the collapse, Egypt, despite surviving, merely coped and retreated from the international stage, entering the chaotic Third Intermediate Period. The resulting power vacuum allowed the emergence of smaller kingdoms like Israel, Judah, and Moab. Archaeology uses Old Testament texts as guideposts for the First Millennium BC. The Philistines are identified as the Sea Peoples group called the Peleset, evidenced by DNA extracted from Ashkelon burials.

Assyrian Resilience: Leadership and Perpetual Warfare after 1177 BC AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations Professor Cline analyzes why societies like the Assyrians survived the 1177 BC collapse, identifying their successful leadership and redundant systems (government, military, writing). Since trade partners vanished, Assyrian leaders resorted to war almost yearly to acquire necessary resources. Their complex relationship with the Babylonians involved periods of alliance and fighting until the Babylonians eventually defeated them centuries later.

he Uluburun Shipwreck and the Collapse of Late Bronze Age Globalization AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: 1177 BC, the year civilization collapsed; After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations This excerpt discusses the Uluburun shipwreck (c. 1300 BC) as a microcosm of Late Bronze Age globalization, carrying copper from Cyprus and tin from Central Asia. Dating evidence includes a solid gold scarab of Nefertiti. The conversation shifts to the 1177 BC collapse, caused by a perfect storm of drought, famine, and invaders. New modeling suggests the simultaneous fall of the Hittites and Ugarit destroyed the network

In this video I sit down with author and explorer Hugh Newman to discuss the exciting new discovery at Karahan Tepe of an 11,400 year old T-shaped pillar that features a humanoid face! This is a unique discovery, but not the only one, as other recent discoveries have also been made at this site and at Gobekli Tepe. In this interview, Hugh will lead us on a photographic journey breaking down all of these enigmas in Turkey. We will end our conversation in Mexico talking about some new Olmec discoveries.

The Great Simplification with Nate Hagens ✓ Claim : Read the notes at at podcastnotes.org. Don't forget to subscribe for free to our newsletter, the top 10 ideas of the week, every Monday --------- For many people today, the idea of societal collapse is unimaginable. Yet history shows that well-established civilizations have fallen again and again – often for similar reasons. In fact, the same forces that build empires can also culminate in their downfall. How can understanding these historical patterns help us prepare for similar existential risks we may already be facing today?  In this episode, Nate is joined by existential risk researcher Luke Kemp to explore the intricate history of societal collapse – connecting patterns of dominance hierarchies, resource control, and inequality to create societies which he calls Goliaths. Together, they delve into the deep history of what egalitarian humans were like before complex civilizations emerged, and the changes in climate and agriculture that created the conditions for hierarchical societies. Luke explains how these very same factors have culminated in the rise and fall of Goliaths, and how these have led to today's global challenges such as nuclear warfare and even AI-fueled surveillance states.  Can knowing our past help us avoid repeating it? Are we in collapse now, and was this civilizational trajectory inevitable? How does the study of civilizational collapse help us grasp the best and worst of humanity – and can we use that knowledge to lean into the better sides of ourselves and put ourselves on a different, more resilient path? (Conversation recorded on August 6th, 2025)     About Luke Kemp: Luke is a Research Affiliate at the Centre for the Study of Existential Risk (CSER) and Darwin College at the University of Cambridge.

PREVIEW HEADLINE: The Earliest Printing Press: Stamped Bricks of Mesopotamia GUEST NAME: Muriel al-Rashid SUMMARY: John Bachelor interviewed author Muriel al-Rashid about her book Between Two Rivers: The Story of Mesopotamian Civilizations. The conversation covered stamped bricks used in ziggurats, like the one built by Ur-Nammu at Ur around 2000 BCE. These stamps served as the earliest printing press, detailing the builder, the building, and the dedication to a god, eliminating the need for scribes. 1923 BAGHDAD

Well we've reached the end of season 3 of Strange New Worlds. The season finale brings back the evil Vezda, who still inhabits Gamble's body. This time, however, the creature has now transported itself down to Skygowan to control the alien species that inhabits the world.....oh ya he makes them gouge out their eyes. We see Spock and Kirk mind meld in order to "sync" close enough to fire phasers to open the door back to Vadia IX. We also get an "Inner Light" type sequence between Batel and Pike, amongst other memorable or forgettable moments (depending on how you look at it). We certainly had some very strong thoughts on how the season ended.

Cosmic destiny or narrative shortcut? Dom Bettinelli, Fr. Jason Tyler, and Jimmy Akin test the SNW S3 finale's bold claims—Batel's fate, Vezda stakes, and a Kirk–Spock mind meld that sparks big questions. Are godlike foes killing drama?

Korby finds Gamble at a doorway to the Vezda prison and the Enterprise goes to rescue him. This is a trap to lure out M'Benga, as he and Gamble need to be together to open the doorway. The crew learn that the unique combination of DNA inside Batel matches the biology of the Beholder statue that guards the prison. To open the doorway without M'Benga and Gamble, the crew devise a plan to simultaneously fire on it from the Enterprise and the Farragut; Spock performs a mind meld with James Kirk so the two can perfectly sync their actions. Pike and Batel enter the prison and confront Gamble, who destroys the Beholder and frees the other Vezda. Using her emerging power, Batel creates an illusion in which she and Pike live a full and happy life together. She then traps all the Vezda in the prison and becomes the Beholder. Pike struggles to move on without Batel as the Enterprise sets out to explore uncharted planets.Trekcast: The Galaxy's Most Unpredictable Star Trek Podcast!Welcome to Trekcast, the galaxy's most unpredictable Star Trek podcast! We're a fan-made show that dives into everything Star Trek, plus all things sci-fi, nerdy, and geeky—covering Star Wars, Marvel, DC Comics, Stargate, and more.But Trekcast isn't just about warp drives and superheroes.

In the season 3 finale of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, sometimes the only way to understand each other is to literally get inside someone's head. But even shared memories can lead to very different conclusions. Jim and Talitha reflect the duality of a Star Trek fan as they trade perspectives on the episode's highs and lows.

8/8. Professor Eric Cline categorizes the Minoans (Crete) and Mycenaeans (mainland Greece) as societies that failedthe collapse in After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations. Despite outward vibrancy, they were internally fragile and vulnerable, possibly due to overextension, drought, famine, or internal uprisings. Cline applies IPCC definitions, classifying societies as "transforming," "adapting," or "coping," with the Minoans and Mycenaeans ultimately disappearing completely, illustrating their failure to recover. 1700 BABYLON

: 1. Professor Eric Cline's books, 1177 BC, the year civilization collapsed and After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations, highlight Late Bronze Age globalization through the Uluburun shipwreck (c. 1300 BC), revealing diverse cargo like copper from Cyprus and tin from Afghanistan . The 1177 BC collapse resulted from a "perfect storm" of drought, famine, Sea Peoples, disease, and earthquakes. New computer modeling suggests the simultaneous fall of the Hittites and Ugarit was  . . . . . .

Here are eight segments, each summarizing content from Professor Eric Cline's work, with book titles and authors, limited to 75 words, and numbered as requested: 1/8. In Professor Eric Cline's books, 1177 BC, the year civilization collapsed and After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations, the Uluburun shipwreck (c. 1300 BC) serves as a microcosm of Late Bronze Age globalization. Its cargo included 10 tons of copper from Cyprus and 1 ton of tin from Afghanistan, along with ebony and Canaanite jars, demonstrating a sophisticated, wide-ranging trade network connecting multiple civilizations across the Mediterranean. A solid gold scarab of Nefertiti helped date the wreck to around 1300 BC. 1879 PLSTO SYMPOSIUM, MUMICH                                                          

3/8. In Professor Eric Cline's After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations, the Assyrians are a prime example of resilience post-1177 BC. Their success derived from strong leadership and constant warfare, allowing them to secure resources when traditional trade partners failed. Their complex, on-again-off-again relationship with the Babylonians eventually led to Neo-Assyrian dominance in the Near East for centuries, showcasing the rise and fall of empires.

6/8. In Professor Eric Cline's After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations, the Phoenicians and Cypriates are highlighted as "antifragile", flourishing in chaos. Phoenicians, surviving Canaanites, took over Mediterranean trade, spreading purple dye and standardizing the alphabet. Cypriates, original copper suppliers, pioneered iron metallurgy, disseminating both goods and techniques, possibly out of innovation rather than just necessity. They used their Mediterranean access to even buy off the Neo-Assyrians with tribute.
