Podcasts about Empire

Tobacco, sugar, rum, cotton, rubber, tea, coffee, spices, industry, borders, slavery, war - all things spread across the globe thanks to the British Empire. At its height in 1922, it was the largest empire the world had ever seen, covering around a quarter of Earth's land surface and ruling over 458 million people- that's a lot of influence. Dan is joined by journalist and author Sathnam Sanghera to measure the impact the British Empire has had on our world, for better and worse. Santhnam's new book for kids is called 'Journeys of Empire'.Produced by James Hickmann, McKenna Fernandez and edited by Matthew Wilson and Dougal Patmore. Did you know you can watch this episode on YouTube?

PREVIEW Guest: Douglas Boin. This discussion centers on Boin's new book regarding Clodia, who was the wealthiest woman in Rome during the tumultuous era of Julius Caesar. The narrative explores why Cicero, the era's most famous lawyer, became obsessed with her, resulting in her prosecution and humiliation in the Roman Senate. While the historian Plutarch later hinted at a romantic interest, available evidence only documents Cicero's intense disdain for her "confident heirs," leading him to famously refuse to say her name aloud. This personal feud reflects the broader shift from the Republic to the Empire. 1870 EXCAVATING THE FORUM

Who were the Italian sailors who stole the bones of St Nicolas from his church in Turkey in 1087? How was the mythology of St Nicolas combined with Germanic pagan stories of Odin riding a white horse accompanied by ravens? How did polar-mania and Coca Cola advertising transform Dutch traditions around St Nicolas into the Santa Claus we know today? William and Anita are joined once again by Sam Dalrymple to discuss his original research on the epic Heist of St Nicolas… Join the Empire Club: Unlock the full Empire experience – with bonus episodes, ad-free listening, early access to miniseries and live show tickets, exclusive book discounts, a members-only newsletter, and access to our private Discord chatroom.

Mark of Moneycircus discusses the progressive Fabian project of destroying nation states, constitutional rule of law, and citizenship with the intent to implement a global neofeudal tokenized technocracy.

Saint Nicolas was a real bishop from Myra in modern-day Turkey, whose tomb there was popular with pilgrims, but 700 years after his death, a group of sailors decided to steal his magic bones… What myth about St Nicolas first associated him with gift-giving? How did his story get merged with the Greek god of the seas, Poseidon? How were the tombs in his hometown connected with Ancient India?

Bryan has had the privilege of talking with Rian Johnson twice for Script Magazine, once for Knives Out and once for Wake Up Dead Man. Both times they talked about his philosophy on writing and both times it touched on techniques and ideas that intersected with things that were relevant to his work on The Last Jedi. Though these interviews focus on the craft of writing and deal as much with Rian's other movies as they do Star Wars, we hope fans of Star Wars and Full of Sith will enjoy them.

Jayson Edwards is the founder of J-Dawgs, one of Utah's most iconic food brands. He started it as a BYU student with $600 from pawning his guitar to his dad, running a tiny shack near campus that somehow turned hot dogs into a full-blown movement. In this conversation, Jayson breaks down what actually made J-Dawgs explode early, the painful lessons that come with scaling a food business, and why focus, quality, and community matter more than hype. In this episode, we talk about:Starting J-Dawgs with $600 and no clue what he was doingHow the “shack” created crazy demand before social mediaWhy he stayed narrow instead of expanding into everythingSupply chain chaos, owning the IP, and protecting qualityWhat COVID was really like as a food business ownerHiring, culture, and the weight of 300+ employeesTemptation to sell, and how to make decisions without emotionContentment, family, and not chasing “happier than happy”Follow Jayson / J-Dawgs:Instagram: @jdawgs

Empire, Stability, and the Smokescreen of MoralityBy Renaldo C. McKenzieLet us be honest—brutally honest, the way history demands and empire resents.What is unfolding in Venezuela, and across the wider Caribbean basin, has little to do with democracy, human rights, or some sudden moral awakening in Washington. It has everything to do with power—raw, unapologetic, strategic power—and the anxiety that sets in when that power feels challenged.The United States does not intervene because a government is despotic. If that were the case, half the world's strongmen would be facing sanctions before breakfast. The United States intervenes when dominance is threatened—when a small country dares to rearrange its economic loyalties, when it flirts with alternatives, when it whispers to Beijing or Moscow instead of kneeling to Washington.This is not conjecture. This is pattern. Take Venezuela. The hostility toward the Maduro government is not rooted in humanitarian outrage. It is rooted in the fact that Venezuela has chosen to deepen relations with China and Russia—to do business outside the American orbit. That is the unforgivable sin. Everything else—drugs, dictatorship, democracy—is stage dressing.The same script plays across the Caribbean. Jamaica, like many of its neighbors, has welcomed Chinese investment: ports modernized, infrastructure built, capital flowing where Western lenders once stalled. Suddenly, “stability” becomes a concern. Suddenly, sovereignty is suspect. Funny how that works.This is not about policing the world's conscience. It is about preserving a hierarchy. History offers receipts. In Guyana, the United States once supported a government that was neither democratic nor just—one that violently suppressed dissent and oversaw the assassination of revolutionary scholar Walter Rodney. That regime, led by Forbes Burnham, was later found culpable by a commission of inquiry. Yet at the time, it enjoyed American backing. Why? Because it played ball. It served U.S. interests. Morality, apparently, is negotiable.Contrast that with today. Guyana now hosts massive U.S. oil interests, where American corporations extract vast wealth while the Guyanese people receive a fraction. That arrangement is deemed acceptable—commendable, even. But let Guyana decide tomorrow to nationalize its resources, to partner elsewhere, or to rely on itself, and watch how quickly the tone changes. Hypothetical? Hardly. We have seen this movie before.Consider Cuba—decades under embargo, not because it threatens the world, but because it refuses submission. Consider Ukraine, punished by war for seeking stability outside one imperial sphere and into another. When small nations move independently, the ground shakes.The language of “communism” is the oldest smokescreen in the book. It is wheeled out whenever convenient, retired when inconvenient. The real crime is not ideology—it is disobedience.This is the central argument of my forthcoming book, Neoliberal Globalization Reconsidered: Unfair Competition and the Death of Nations. Nations do not collapse simply because of internal failure; they are often pushed—cornered by systems designed to ensure that wealth flows upward and outward, never inward, never locally, never freely.And here lies the uncomfortable truth: empire does not require virtue. It requires compliance.Yes, America wants to remain competitive. That desire is not irrational. But competitiveness built on coercion, embargoes, and destabilization is not leadership—it is fear masquerading as strength. And fear, history tells us, is a dangerous policy advisor.The Caribbean must tread carefully. Sovereignty is costly. Independence comes with consequences. But the alternative—permanent subordination dressed up as partnership—is far more expensive in the long run.Renaldo is the Author of Neoliberalism, 2021) and Neoliberal Globalization Reconsidered, Unfair Competition and the Death of Nations", contributions by Martin Oppenheimer

History says Napoleon Bonaparte lost his empire on the battlefield —in Russia, at Leipzig, or finally at Waterloo.But what if the real defeat happened years earlier, behind closed doors in Paris?In this episode of Hidden Forces in History, we uncover the quiet diplomatic, financial, and political plot that made Napoleon's fall inevitable long before his armies collapsed.We explore:- How Charles Maurice de Talleyrand undermined Napoleon from inside his own government- Why the Continental System failed — and how British credit networks outlasted French power- How bankers, diplomats, and senators prepared a France without Napoleon- Why Paris surrendered before Napoleon even returned to the capital- And how empires are often destroyed not by generals… but by elites who quietly move onThis wasn't a single conspiracy.It was something far more realistic — overlapping networks of power deciding an emperor had outlived his usefulness.Because wars aren't only lost with cannon fire.They're lost with ink, ledgers, and whispered conversations.

You could describe Empire as the beginning of Star Wars as a 'franchise' - it's a film brimming with confidence, with characters hitting their stride (Darth Vader is definitely evil now and C3PO is a bit nicer) and with ships and set-pieces that would make excellent toys. Then there's that bit - one of the most famous twists in cinema history, a moment that ignited spoiler culture as we know it.

Allen covers forecasts for 46 GW of new US wind capacity by 2029, driven by data centers and reshoring. Plus Equinor’s Empire Wind project stays on track for late 2026, RWE gets approval for the Five Estuaries offshore wind farm in the UK, and a Scottish startup raises funding for modular multi-rotor turbines.

There is an old saying about the wind. You cannot see it. You cannot hold it. But you can harness it. And right now, people around the world are doing exactly that. After years of sluggish growth, American wind power is waking up. Wood Mackenzie reports the United States will add more than seven gigawatts of new wind capacity in 2025. That is a thirty-six percent jump from this year. And by 2029? Forty-six gigawatts of new capacity coming online. Why now? Because after a decade of flat electricity demand, America is hungry for power again. Data centers. Electric vehicles. Factories returning home. Demand is growing three percent annually now, up from less than one percent before. Out West, they are leading the charge. Wyoming. New Mexico. Colorado. Pattern Energy’s three-point-five gigawatt SunZia project in New Mexico alone will make them the top wind installer in 2026. And Invenergy’s Towner Energy Center in Colorado? Nine hundred ninety-eight megawatts. The single largest project expected to come online in 2027. But here is where it gets interesting. Off the coast of Long Island, a different kind of story is unfolding. The Empire Wind project. Eight hundred ten megawatts of offshore wind power. Enough to power half a million homes in Brooklyn. Norwegian energy giant Equinor is building it. And despite the political headwinds blowing against offshore wind, New York is standing firm. First electricity expected by late 2026. Across the Atlantic, Britain just gave the green light to something bigger. The Five Estuaries offshore wind farm. Seventy-nine turbines off the coast of Suffolk and Essex. At least twenty-three miles from shore. German energy company RWE is building it. When complete, it will power one million British homes. One million. Meanwhile, Europe is putting its money where the wind blows. Austria’s Erste Group just signed a two hundred million euro deal with the European Investment Bank. Part of an eight billion euro program to strengthen European wind turbine manufacturers. As Karl Nehammer, the bank’s vice president, put it: Europe is serious about keeping wind manufacturing jobs at home. Now… You might think wind power is all about going big. Massive offshore farms. Turbines taller than skyscrapers. But in Stirling, Scotland, three entrepreneurs have a different idea. Adam Harris. Paul Pirrie. Peter Taylor. They founded a company called Myriad Wind Energy Systems. Their invention? Small modular wind turbines. Multiple rotors mounted in a framework. No cranes needed. No special roads. Install them on a farm. On a factory. On a remote site where traditional turbines could never go. This week, they secured eight hundred sixty-five thousand pounds in seed funding.

In this holiday service, we celebrate Christmas at The House by blessing families with what they need and what God knows will help steward the destiny He has placed inside them! Then, Touré Roberts brings an enduring message from Luke 1:31-38 and Luke 17:21 about the empire within you. The kingdom of God isn't something you watch for. It's already within you, and there are three keys to unlocking this empire: what it is, how to own it, and what to do with it. Just like Mary, we don't produce the kingdom; we receive it.

THE POWER AND DECLINE OF WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST Colleague David Pietrusza. Media magnate William Randolph Hearst, who controlled a vast empire of newspapers and radio stations, shifted from a Rooseveltsupporter in 1932 to a fierce critic by 1936. Hearst's reputation suffered after a controversial meeting with Adolf Hitler, which he attempted to downplay, but which accelerated his decline in popularity. Roosevelt, concerned about "crackpot ideas" and opposition from the wealthy, attempted to neutralize Hearst through intermediaries. However, the President's "soak the rich" tax policies deeply angered Hearst, leading the publisher to order his income reduced to avoid taxes and solidifying his break with FDR. NUMBER 5

REDIFF - Direction la Belgique pour l'ultime bataille de l'Empereur. En une seule journée, ce 18 juin 1815, Napoléon est passé de la gloire à l'exil. Comment le stratège militaire et sa Grande Armée ont-ils pu battre en retraite face à la septième coalition ?

La Mayonnaise de la cuisine de luxe à la junkfood Nous sommes à la fin de l'été 1756, à Port-Mahon, sur l'île de Minorque, en mer Méditerranée, au nord-est de Majorque. Conflit majeur de l'histoire européenne, le premier que l'on qualifie de «mondial », la guerre de Sept ans vient de commencer. Elle oppose les grandes puissances européennes : la France alliée à l'Autriche et la Grande-Bretagne avec la Prusse. De nombreux autres pays sont également engagés, notamment l'Empire russe aux côtés de l'Autriche et le royaume d'Espagne qui soutient la France. Les théâtres d'opérations se déroulent sur plusieurs continents, l'Europe, bien sûr, mais aussi l'Amérique du Nord et l'Asie où l'affrontement entre Britanniques et Français s'effectue à travers leurs deux monopoles d'État en Indes orientales. Sur l'île de Minorque donc , les Français, dont les troupes sont menées par le maréchal Richelieu, infligent la défaite aux Britanniques. On raconte qu'au soir de la victoire, le cuisinier du duc se retrouve en manque d'ingrédients pour préparer le repas du vainqueur. Le voilà réduit à se débrouiller avec un jaune d'œuf, de l'huile et du vinaigre. Et c'est ainsi que serait née … la sauce d'entre les sauces, la reine du topping, l'irremplaçable mayonnaise. Celle sans qui la frite ne serait qu'un vulgaire bâtonnet de patate graisseuse. Alors, que faut-il penser de cette anecdote ? La mayonnaise serait-elle le fruit du hasard ? Une réponse à un manque ? Au-delà de la légende, promenons-nous dans les cuisine de l'Histoire… Invité : Pierre Leclercq, membre du Centre de Gastronomie Historique, collaborateur scientifique de l'université de Liège et animateur de la chaîne Youtube « L'histoire à pleine dents ». sujets traités : Mayonnaise, cuisine, junkfood, Port-Mahon, jaune d'œuf, huile, vinaigre, sauce Merci pour votre écoute Un Jour dans l'Histoire, c'est également en direct tous les jours de la semaine de 13h15 à 14h30 sur www.rtbf.be/lapremiere Retrouvez tous les épisodes d'Un Jour dans l'Histoire sur notre plateforme Auvio.be :https://auvio.rtbf.be/emission/5936 Intéressés par l'histoire ?

In this episode, we'll hear about one of the most chilling rulers of Byzantium – the empress Eirene. She was Byzantium's only empress to take on the reins of government in a sole capacity. Her reign is controversial because she took sole power only after she'd killed the reigning emperor by gouging out his eyes. And the emperor in question was her own son. Even by the shocking standards of the Dark Ages, this stands out as pretty extreme parenting. And yet despite that, today she is a saint in the Greek Orthodox church since she restored icon worship, overthrowing the iconoclasts we talked about in the last episode. For a free ebook, maps and blogs check out my website nickholmesauthor.comFind my latest book, Justinian's Empire, on Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk.

Mr. Beast Biography Flash a weekly Biography.Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast, made waves just weeks ago with a candid appearance at the New York Times DealBook Summit on December 3, where he dissected his sprawling empire alongside Beast Industries CEO Jeff Housenbold. According to the New York Times video transcript, Donaldson admitted newer YouTube videos havent hit the mark, vowing to refocus on gripping stories over spectacles amid a packed schedule of 27-to-28-day shoots. He revealed working every day, even holidays—if it ends in Y, its a workday—while his fiancée knew what she signed up for.Housenbold dished on Beast Industries three-pronged empire: media, now half the revenue with YouTube anchoring, TikTok shorts, Instagram, Beast Games season two dropping in January, fresh animation channels, and plans to diversify beyond Donaldsons face using replicable viral concepts. Consumer products shine with Feastables as the worlds largest ethically sourced chocolate brand, top-selling MrBeast Labs action figures, Lunchly snacks, Jack Links beef jerky collab, plus upcoming Beast Mobile phone service and a financial literacy platform. Philanthropy weaves through it all, from Kenya projects to making kindness viral for Gen Z and Alpha.They eyed a future IPO to let 1.4 billion unique viewers in 90 days own shares, boasting one billion global followers—70 percent outside North America—and Beast Games as the top show in 80 countries after building a contestant city. Donaldson stressed role-model vibes, skipping vice for positive inspo, while addressing lawsuits quietly post-season one.No major headlines in the past 24 hours, but this summit chatter underscores long-term shifts: scaling IP, global dominance, and blending profit with purpose amid legal hiccups—all verified, no speculation here.Thanks for tuning into this MrBeast episode of the podcast.

Repost: Defending the Underdogs — Cybersecurity Lessons from Kyle Hanslovan (Huntress) This is a repost of an earlier episode of the Jess Larsen Show on Innovation & Leadership. In this episode, Jess Larsen sits down with Kyle Hanslovan, cybersecurity expert and CEO of Huntress, to unpack what it really takes to protect small and mid-sized businesses from modern cyber threats. Long before Huntress became a trusted name in defensive security, Kyle's journey began in the U.S. Air Force, continued through the intelligence community, and ultimately led him into the front lines of cybersecurity entrepreneurship. Kyle shares how thinking like an adversary—rather than just reacting to threats—became foundational to his approach, and why strong communication skills are just as critical as technical expertise in the security world. He also tells the origin story of Huntress: a real-world challenge, a bold proof-of-concept, and a clear realization that smaller organizations were dangerously underserved when it came to cyber defense. Even years later, this conversation remains strikingly relevant—offering timeless insights on leadership, problem-solving, and building mission-driven companies that protect the people most often overlooked. If you're interested in cybersecurity, entrepreneurship, or leadership forged under pressure, this episode is well worth revisiting. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Before Anne Bonny. Before Grace O'Malley. There was Sayyida al-Hurra — the Pirate Queen of the Mediterranean. In this episode of For the Love of History, we uncover the extraordinary true story of Sayyida al-Hurra, a Muslim woman who rose to power in the late 1400s and became one of the most feared pirates in history. Born in Granada during the violence of the Reconquista, Sayyida was forced to flee Spain as Catholic rulers Ferdinand and Isabella expelled, enslaved, and murdered thousands of Muslims. That injustice would shape her destiny. After becoming governor of Tetouan (Tétouan), Morocco, Sayyida didn't just rule — she fought back. Partnering with the legendary Ottoman pirate Hayreddin Barbarossa (Redbeard), she launched relentless naval attacks against Spanish and Portuguese ships, dominating the Mediterranean and earning her title as the unrivaled pirate queen. Her piracy wasn't just about wealth; it was about defense, revenge, and protecting displaced Muslim communities. This episode explores: The Reconquista and the forced expulsion of Muslims from Spain How Sayyida al-Hurra became a female political leader and naval commander Her alliance with Barbarossa, one of history's most famous pirates Pirate warfare, ransom, and Mediterranean power politics How piracy rebuilt Tetouan into a thriving city Why European powers feared her — and her people adored her Her unprecedented marriage to the Sultan of Morocco on her own terms Sayyida al-Hurra's legacy lives on in the walls of Tetouan, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and in the history of women who refused to be erased. If you love pirate history, women in power, Islamic history, and stories of resistance against empire, this episode is for you. Grab your sword, your most dramatic blouse, and let's set sail.

In this episode of SITREP, CannCon and Alpha Warrior are joined by Colonel Towner Watkins for a wide-ranging, candid discussion that moves from military culture and combat experience to the deeper mechanics of regime change and global power. The conversation examines Venezuela through the lens of history, intelligence operations, and economic warfare, unpacking the role of NGOs, USAID, the IMF, and corporate interests in destabilizing sovereign nations. Colonel Watkins challenges prevailing narratives around narco-states, opposition movements, and so-called humanitarian interventions, drawing parallels to past coups and intelligence-backed operations. Along the way, the panel reflects on the erosion of institutional experience within the U.S. military, the consequences of politicized leadership, and what diplomacy versus force actually looks like on the ground. As always, SITREP blends sharp analysis, lived experience, and unscripted dialogue to cut through headlines and expose the machinery behind modern conflicts.

Alvin Lui of CourageIsAHabit.org discusses the fight against indoctrination which includes everything from CRT, DEI, and transgenderism to SEL and the weaponization of “mental health”. K-12 today is teaching children to hate America, in red and blue states alike. He believes we should “embrace exclusion” from the woke left and make courage a habit. He outlines actions parents can take to protect their children and push back against this insanity. Watch on BitChute / Brighteon / Rumble / Substack / YouTube *Support Geopolitics & Empire!
