https://ghost.beer/join From the infamous Affair of the Diamond Necklace and Marie Antoinette's involvement, to how Saint Germain's warnings about the downfall of the monarchy came true. The conversation then shifts to Saint Germain's connection to Thomas Mesmer and his influence on the development of hypnotism and personal magnetism. In this part of the conversation, Gil and Joey discuss Saint Germain's encounter with Bavarian soldiers during World War I. They speculate on Saint Germain's motivations and the possibility that he couldn't control where he ended up in time. Count Saint Germain's mysterious appearances throughout history, including dining with the Council of Trent, inspiring the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and meeting Guy Ballard to start the I Am Activity cult. The image of Saint Germain with Madame Blavatsky is a drawing, not a real photo. The Ascended Masters are beings who go beyond human potential and drive the evolution of humanity. Saint Germain's involvement in historical events is often accompanied by strange occurrences, such as fires destroying evidence. Herbert, Saint Germain's comedic copilot, adds humor to the narrative. In this part of the conversation, Joey and Gil discuss the theory that Count Saint Germain was the wandering Jew and the connection to Nicholas Flamel, the alchemist who created the Philosopher's Stone. They also joke about opening a falafel restaurant called The Philosopher's Stone and a hummus restaurant called We're All Humans and Hummus. Saint Germain, also known as Nicholas Flamel, may have been a time traveler who appeared throughout European history. He was a jack of all trades and generally looked upon as a nice person. However, he didn't actively try to help humanity with his time travels. He tried to warn some people about future events, but it didn't work out. Eventually, he gave up and started partying with his friends, sharing stories of the historical events he witnessed. Saint Germain's story is a reminder that life is about enjoying the present and creating memories with loved ones.

In August 1785 a shocking affair came to light which would prove so detrimental to the reputation and standing of the French King Louis XVI, and more especially his already unpopular wife, Queen Marie Antoinette, that it would become a decisive moment in the rising tide of the French Revolution. It concerned a gaudy but incalculably expensive diamond necklace commissioned by Louis XV for his mistress, Madame du Barry. Embroiled in the affair was a young prostitute by the name of Nicole Le Guay d'Oiva with an uncanny resemblance to the Queen, a naive Cardinal named Louis-René de Rohan, desperate to return to Marie Antoinette's good graces, an aristocratic confidence trickster, Jeanne de la Motte, and a Freemason occultist, Alessandro Cagliostro. The web of lies and deceptions that they wove - in many ways capitalising upon the simmering tensions of court life at Versailles - and the scandal that subsequently erupted, would inflame the entire nation. Join Tom and Dominic as they divulge, gem by glittering, salacious gem, the twists and turns of the famous Affair of the Diamond Necklace. An intrigue of such devilish guile and duplicity, with so colourful a cast of characters, that it near bellies belief. But also, with repercussions for the French monarchy that would destabilise it forever…. _______ *The Rest Is History LIVE in the U.S.A.* If you live in the States, we've got some great news: Tom and Dominic will be performing throughout America in November, with shows in San Francisco, L.A., Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Boston and New York. *The Rest Is History LIVE at the Royal Albert Hall* Tom and Dominic, accompanied by a live orchestra, take a deep dive into the lives and times of two of history's greatest composers: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Ludwig van Beethoven.

Please enjoy this Trashy Royals episode, The Affair of the Diamond Necklace, and listen to Trashy Royals wherever you get your podcasts! 05. The Affair of the Diamond Necklace Unsurprisingly, the French Revolution didn't happen particularly spontaneously. Years of financial mismanagement, poor crops, massive unemployment, and a swelling population in Paris itself all contributed to a growing dissatisfaction with King Louis XVI and the monarchy in general. The King's cause wasn't helped at all by a lingering suspicion that his wife, Queen Marie Antoinette, was a profligate spender and an Austrian spy, but Marie Antoinette's reputation took a calamitous hit in 1785, when an ambitious con artist named Jeanne de la Motte hatched a plan to acquire one of the most expensive jewelry pieces ever crafted. Playing on the vanity and avarice of one of her lovers, Cardinal Louis de Rohan, Jeanne and her crew succeeded in boosting a piece worth $2 million – and forever ended any goodwill the French public had toward their Queen.

In 1770, the French people greeted Austrian Marie Antoinette as the beautiful and future French queen. Twenty-three years later they guillotined her as the most reviled woman in France. The affair of the Diamond Necklace had its origin in a piece of jewelry that was commissioned by Louis XV in 1772 and meant as a gift for his mistress, the Madame Du Barry. He requested that the royal jewelers Charles Boehmer and Paul Bassenge create … Continue reading Marie Antoinette (Volume Six, Episode One) Part Two →

Put your seatbelt on and follow Valerie and her uncle as they try and break a curse placed on her family over 150 years ago.Bruce has loved writing all his life.

He owned and operated several small successful businesses, he worked in grocery stores and delivered bread to support his wonderful family. He even worked part-time at a school where he met many wonderful children. For fun he wrote stories for classrooms, including each student as a character. Then COVID-19 came, he lost his job. As he stayed home he began to write more, a friend suggested publishing, thus Valerie was born.

Today I'm going to tell you the tale of how a diamond necklace helped contribute to the queen of France having her head cut off at the guillotine and an entire country changing its form of government. Sound too crazy to be true? Well, never underestimate the power of a piece of jewelry.---Narration - Jen SieverlingResearch & Writing - Jen SieverlingMusic - Joseph McDadeFor all credits and sources please visit https://jennifersieverling.wixsite.com/teaandgemstones---Stay Sparkly
The Affair of the Diamond Necklace was the eighteenth century's most notorious heist—and for good reason. It's a dramatic story of lust, theft, betrayal, and ultimately, the fall of the freaking Queen of France. The players in this con included Marie Antoinette, King Louis XVI, a sly con-woman named Jeanne de la Motte, her gigolo-forger boyfriend, and the dumbest cardinal of all time. Mix them all together, add an absurdly expensive piece of jewelry, and you have yourself the scandal of the 18th century. This podcast is brought to you by Factinate.com.
