    Far too ignorant of the histories of the rest of the world, being aware of only the accomplishments of Greece, Rome and Europe, Westerners have been made to believe that their societies represent the most superior examples of civilization. However, the Western value system stems from a misconception that, as in nature, human society too is evolving. The idea derives from the hidden influence of secret societies, who followed the belief in spiritual evolution of the Kabbalah, which taught that history would attain its fulfillment when man would become God, and make his own laws.Therefore, the infamous Illuminati gave its name to the Enlightenment of the eighteenth century,which claimed that human progress must abandon "superstition," meaning Christianity, in favor of "reason." Thus the Illuminati succeeded in bringing about the French and American revolutions, which instituted the separation of Church and State, and from that point forward, the Western values of Humanism, seen to include secularism, human rights, democracy and capitalism, have been celebrated as the culmination of centuries of human intellectual evolution.This is the basis of the propaganda which has been used to foster a Clash of Civilizations, where the Islamic world is presented as stubbornly adhering to the anachronistic idea of "theocracy." Where once the spread of Christianity and civilizing the world were used as pretexts for colonization, today a new White Man's Burden makes use of human rights and democracy to justify imperial aggression.However, because, after centuries of decline, the Islamic world is incapable of mobilizing a defense, the Western powers, as part of their age-old strategy of Divide and Conquer, have fostered the rise of Islamic fundamentalism, to both serve as agent-provocateurs and to malign the image of Islam. These sects, known to scholars as Revivalists, opposed the traditions of classical Islamic scholarship in order to create the opportunity to rewrite the laws of the religion to better serve their sponsors. Thus were created the Wahhabi and Salafi sects of Islam, from which were derived the Muslim Brotherhood, which has been in the service of the West ever since.But, the story of the development of these Islamic sects involves the bizarre doctrines and hidden networks of occult secret societies, being based on a Rosicrucian myth of Egyptian Freemasonry, which see the Muslim radicals as inheritors of an ancient mystery tradition of the Middle East which was passed on to the Knights Templar during the Crusades, thus forming the foundation of the legends of the Holy Grail. These beliefs would not only form the cause for the association of Western intelligence agencies with Islamic fundamentalists, but would fundamentally shape much of twentieth century history.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

    What are some of the significant contributions that Greece has made to the world of wine? How does the Greek volcanic island of Santorini produce wines of stunning depth and freshness at the same time? How are Greek wines shifting the perspective on what's possible for warm climate wines? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Master of Wine Konstantinos Lazarakis. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Giveaway Two of you are going to win a copy of his terrific book, The Wines of Greece. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose two people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck!   Highlights What are some of the significant contributions to wine made in Greece? What are some of the unique and complex terroirs found in Greece for wine production? How do Santorini's wines achieve both incredible depth and freshness? What are the hallmark characteristics of Assyrtiko grapes, and how does the wine pair with food? How does the tasting experience of Moschofilero compare with that of Assyrtiko? What should you know about Greece's flagship red grapes, Agiorgitiko and Xinomavro? Which regions are a must-try in your exploration of Greek wines? How was Retsina developed, and why does Konstantinos think it's one of the greatest hopes for the Greek wine industry? How did the Greek financial crisis impact and improve the Greek wine industry? What are some of the opportunities and challenges in the future of Greek wines?   Key Takeaways As Konstantinos observes, Greece was not the first to make wine or even the first to have a God that is dedicated to wine, but we did a lot of things for the first time: the first appellations or regions, sommeliers, wine writers and tastings. For the Greek symposia, the whole format of consuming wine was essential in making sure that symposia were an amazing celebration of the human intellect, and the bringing together of ideas. Konstantinos explains that because Santorini is a volcanic island it has a young soil that's coarse. The vines grow on their own roots, but above ground, it's very windy, extremely hot, so the vines have to kept low on ground to capture a little humidity and be protected from the wind. They trained these vines as baskets by weaving the vine canes over years. Everything that is on the periphery is torn apart by the wind, but then you have only the middle that survives. Every about 30-40 years, the basket gets too bulky, so it's chopped apart and a new cane from the old root system starts a new basket. The root system is four hundred years old. For context, he adds, four centuries ago, Bordeaux was a swamp. Konstantinos says that many people believe that a cool climate wine is superior to a warm climate one. But warm climates can produce amazing wines. Greece has a lot of places that are cold, even more so than the Loire Valley in France. Over the years, the Greeks selected grapes with full flavors at lower levels of alcohol.   About Konstantinos Lazarakis MW Konstantinos Lazarakis MW is the first person in Greece to have passed the notoriously difficult Master of Wine exams. He is the author of Wines of Greece, published by Academie du Vin. As well, he serves as the President of Wines & Spirits Professional Center, General Manager of Aiolos Wines and CEO of Wine Wonders.   Bonus Interview Highlights – Matt Cauz How do I distinguish between sexist, sexy, and sexual writing? What are some strategies you can try to avoid using wine as a coping mechanism? What trends are emerging around generational differences in wine consumption? Why is it important for us to vote with our dollars when it comes to producers accused of misconduct?

    It is time to travel. It is time to get back out there and enjoy what this world has to offer, from amazing food, the sound of different languages to vibrant cities. If you've been feeling the travel itch, you're going to love today's guest. Anna Fishman is founder of the Olegana Travel Boutique. With a passion for crafting unforgettable experiences, Anna has redefined luxury travel, making it accessible to families, couples, and now an exclusive community of women.  She calls it her second wind career. She had worked in daycare, police departments, she did taxes – and her last corporate job was in marketing and advertising compliance. “I didn't love any of those experiences, I never felt at home when I was at work and never felt like I was making a difference,” says Anna. “I remember sitting in my last job in a cubicle thinking, is this it?” Having her first baby flipped her life update down. She says looking back, she had postpartum depression. Returning to work after maternity leave had her dreading going into the office week after week. But on paper, she says everything was great. Anna took some time to get honest with herself.  “I asked myself if I didn't have to do anything … if I don't have to pay for mortgage or care for the baby. What the heck would I do with my life?” asked Anna. “Travel. It's always been travel. Good times, bad times. You know, like I travel to forget. I travel to celebrate, I travel, I just travel.” With that realization, Anna used her four-hour commute each day to research how to start a travel business. She had no experience running one, but she says for the first time in 15 years, she felt alive. She credits the support of her husband as being the most important catalyst on her journey. “His belief in my vision, his belief in giving me that freedom to quit my corporate job a year and a half into this … if he didn't show me that support, mental, financial, emotional, … if I didn't have him, this would never have happened. So I want to stress how important it is to have that support,” says Anna. “We're fighting against the market, the clients, the suppliers. But we're also fighting this invisible fight at home against our partners who are not supporting us. Unfortunately, it will never work if you're fighting on if you're divided on two fronts,” she says. Six years into her travel business, Anna started focusing on small group trips for women. The camaraderie and connection she found was powerful. “Being in a destination with the client who comes alone, was a little nervous, a little shy, doesn't know anyone, maybe just lost a partner, maybe just, you know, got divorced. … That said, ‘that's enough. It's time for me to put me first and take this crazy step.' … We have all kinds of interesting people that come on our trips, and then seeing them, open up like a flower throughout the trip and really start enjoying life again, if I may say that, … It's such an incredible, powerful experience and emotion and feeling,” says Anna. The experience allows her clients, who might be burnt out, to get a reprieve from decision fatigue. Anna says her job is really to know the client and what they're looking for, and she has many conversations with women about not waiting to retire to travel.  “Women who come on our trips are a little bit older, but I don't want to wait till I'm in my 50s,” says Anna. “I don't want to wait to retire, to live my life. I need to fulfill myself now so I can be better for my kids and for my husband and for my clients. “I don't care if you block it ten years from now, or one year from now, or three months from now, unless you get on the calendar and say, ‘this is when I'm going to Italy or Greece' or whatever you want to go, it will never happen.” Connect with Anna Fishman : https://www.oleganatravelboutique.com/  Anna is offering $250 off group trips for listeners in 2025.

    Historically Thinking: Conversations about historical knowledge and how we achieve it

    If English speakers—or French speakers, or Spanish speakers, or really most any speaker of any language other than Greek…or Turkish—think about the Greek Revolution at all, then that's amazing. If they do not, then they continue to ignore one of the most consequential collection of events in the 19th century, a series of imperial overlaps, social convulsions, massacres, sieges, expulsions, and sometimes battles that not only resulted in an independent Greece, but also changed forever the culture of the eastern Mediterranean, and birthed nationalism as a successful way of not only theorizing but of being.  My guest Yanni Kotsonis is Professor of History at New York University, where he was founding director of the Jordan Center for the Advanced Study of Russia. Raised in Athens, he was educated in Montreal, Copenhagen, London, and Moscow. His most recent book is The Greek Revolution and the Violent Birth of Nationalism, which is the subject of our conversation today.

In this gripping episode, we unravel the complex strategies and political chess moves of the Peloponnesian War, spotlighting the pivotal period following 424 BC. Witness the dramatic rise and fall of Athens and Sparta as we dissect significant events like the Spartan defeats at Pylos and Sphacteria and Athens' bold military ventures. We also examine how setbacks at Megara and Delium fueled Sparta's resolve, leading to urgent peace negotiations. With a special focus on the cunning Spartan general Brasidas and his diplomatic ingenuity in Thrace, we unpack how his actions led to the revolt of key cities against Athens, culminating in the battle at Amphipolis and the fragile Peace of Nicias in 421 BC.But the story doesn't end with the signing of a treaty. Journey through the tangled web of alliances and political intrigue as cities like Corinth and Elis contemplate breaking free from Spartan dominance by joining the Argive League.

    A special 100th episode special for your favorite anti-capitalist podcast! In this episode we discuss "riot" dogs in Chile and Greece on the frontlines of various protests from 2008-2019. A riot dog is a stray dog that accompanies street protesters. The term originated during the 2008 Greek riots when a number of stray dogs remained among the protesters even when violent rioting broke out.[1][2][3] A few of Greece's riot dogs acquired a large following of fans around the world (such as Loukanikos),[4][5][6] and in Chile a riot dog named Negro Matapacos became well known.

He was commonly known for joining protests, barking at police, helping in street battles with the Greek police as well as participating in anarchist rallies and picket lines, at least since December 2008.[1] The dog had a reputation of being fearless, usually being in front of the protests and having tear gas thrown at him multiple times. Loukanikos was active throughout all Greek protests and often leading the protesters towards the police. Initially a stray, he moved from building to building, but was said to have preferred to be on the streets. He was groomed and cared for by multiple left-wing organizations. He was nominated for person of the year in 2011 by Time magazine.[3] In September 2011, on the occasion of a striking policemen's union marching in the centre of Athens,[4] he was "initially confused" between two opposite sides, both of uniformed policemen, but when the riot police contingent attacked their striking colleagues, the dog sided with those who were being attacked.

    Grandpa Bill's Grunts & Groans Aromatherapy: A History with Nutmeg Aromatherapy, the practice of using essential oils for therapeutic benefits, has a rich history dating back thousands of years. Ancient civilizations like the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans utilized aromatic plants for various purposes, including medicine, cosmetics, and religious rituals. While nutmeg's use in aromatherapy is not as widespread as some other oils, it has a place in this history. Ancient Uses: Egypt: The Egyptians, known for their sophisticated use of aromatics, likely incorporated nutmeg into their blends for perfumes and incense. They valued its warming and stimulating properties. Greece and Rome: Ancient Greek and Roman physicians, including Hippocrates, documented the medicinal uses of nutmeg. They believed it could aid digestion and alleviate pain. Medieval and Renaissance: Trade Routes: During the Middle Ages, nutmeg became a valuable commodity traded along the Silk Road. It was used in both culinary and medicinal practices. European Herbalists: Herbalists like Hildegard of Bingen recognized nutmeg's potential for treating digestive issues and nervous disorders. Modern Aromatherapy: Nutmeg Essential Oil: Today, nutmeg essential oil is used in aromatherapy for its warming, stimulating, and uplifting properties. It is often used in blends to address fatigue, muscle aches, and digestive discomfort. Emotional Well-being: Nutmeg oil is also believed to have a positive effect on mood, helping to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. Important Note: Nutmeg essential oil should be used with caution, as it contains compounds that can be toxic in high doses. It is always best to consult with a qualified aromatherapist before using any essential oil, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, or have any underlying health conditions. #aromatherapy, #nutmeg,#essentialoils,#naturalremedies,#wellness,#history,#ancientwisdom, The Aromatic History of Nutmeg: A Journey Through Time Nutmeg in Aromatherapy: A Warming and Uplifting Tradition Exploring the Therapeutic Uses of Nutmeg Essential Oil From Ancient Egypt to Modern Wellness: The Story of Nutmeg in Aromatherapy The Power of Nutmeg: A Natural Remedy for Mind and Body BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Virtual Mall Host and Moderator-Grandpa Bill:Website: https://www.7kmetals.com/grandpabill    https://www.7kmetals.com/grandpabill/share/p386dYouTube: Bill Holt@billholt8792Social Media: https://www.facebook.com/bill.sales.524Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/bradybrodyboy12/E-mail Message Board: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bhsalesDisclaimer: This content is provided for informational purposes only and does not intend to substitute professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.    The Maine Virtual Mall: A free platform for repeat guests of Grandpa Bill's show.

    Greg Jenner is joined in ancient Greece by Professor Edith Hall and comedian Dan Schreiber to learn all about famous philosopher Aristotle and his world changing ideas. Born a doctor's son in the coastal settlement of Stagira, Aristotle would go on to revolutionise intellectual life in the west, writing on everything from theatre and the arts to politics, moral philosophy and zoology. After studying under Plato at his academy, Aristotle became a teacher himself, tutoring none other than a young Alexander the Great in Macedon before returning to Athens to found his own school, the Lyceum. And yet this extraordinary life came to an end in exile, after he was banished from his beloved Athens. This episode charts Aristotle's incredible rise and fall, exploring his intellectual career and philosophical ideas alongside his friendships and romances, and asking whether despite his views on women and slavery he deserves the title of the greatest Greek philosopher. If you're a fan of ancient academic rivalries, bloodthirsty kings, and incredible scientific discoveries, you'll love our episode on Aristotle.If you want more Greek philosophers with Professor Edith, check out our episode on Pythagoras.

    What makes wine worth waiting for? How much wine is produced in Greece? What would surprise you about the wines of Greece. In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Konstantinos Lazarakis, author of the new book The Wines of Greece. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks   Giveaway Two of you are going to win a copy of his terrific book, The Wines of Greece. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose two people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck!   Highlights How did Konstantinos find his first passion for heavy metal music? Do fine wine and heavy metal have anything in common? What memorable moment happened to Konstantinos while delivering a presentation to wine buyers in Russia? How did Dominus wine end up making an in-flight splash for Konstantinos? What sparked Konstantinos' initial passion for Greek wine? Why did Konstantinos want to become a Master of Wine when no others were in Greece? Where can you find Greece on the map and what are the key geographic features? How much wine does Greece produce annually? What unexpected insight did Konstantinos discover while writing his book on Greek wines? What might surprise you about the dynamic nature of Greek wines and winemaking? What does it mean for Greece to have a large number of endemic grape varieties?   Key Takeaways As Konstantinos observes, when you're a fan of Barolo, or since we're talking about wines of Greece in here, Xinomavro, then these wines are not immediately appealing but hugely rewarding once you pay attention to them and calibrate your idea about what wine can be. Looking beyond the instant is rewarding. Konstantinos says that many people, even wine professionals, have widely different expectations of what Greek wine is. Some are surprised that Greece is producing any wine at all and others believe that Greek wine is a commodity produced in bulk. But the Bordeaux region of France produces twice the wine that the entire country of Greece produces. Konstantinos explains that the great thing about Greek wine is that we have no idea what Greek wine is all about. New grape varieties and regions emerge regularly. For example, Malagousia is a grape variety produced by about 200 vineyards. It is extremely forthcoming yet very complex and intense. On the nose, it can range from Muscatine to minty to tropically. On the palate, it's quite round, even creamy, without the need of extended lees contact or oak, but still, it has amazing freshness. One of the most important Greek grape varieties has been around for only 30, 40, years. That's bound to happen again and again. In Italy, almost every area that can make wine does or is verified. They have all their grape varieties identified.   About Konstantinos Lazarakis MW Konstantinos Lazarakis MW is the first person in Greece to have passed the notoriously difficult Master of Wine exams. He is the author of Wines of Greece, published by Academie du Vin. As well, he serves as the President of Wines & Spirits Professional Center, General Manager of Aiolos Wines and CEO of Wine Wonders.   Bonus Interview – Matt Cauz Highlights Which wine should you pair with artichokes? What inspired me to write Wine Witch on Fire? How did the events of 2012 kick off my no good, terrible, very bad, vintage, personally and professionally? Have there been any lasting effects from these traumatic events? How has the Canadian wine industry evolved over the past 20 years? What are my thoughts on the current state of the wine review industry?       To learn more, visit https://www.nataliemaclean.com/322.
