In 480BC, the Spartans secured their place in history when 300 of their soldiers fought to the death against the mighty Persian army at Thermopylae. Their reputation for brutal decisiveness and simple living have been admired for thousands of years. But what about the darker side of Spartan ideology, a society that culled weak babies, forced children to fight, and enslaved its neighbours? Was Sparta really a utopia? Or was Aristotle right when he said that Spartans simply made men into machines? This is a Short History of the Spartans. Written by Jo Furniss. With thanks to Dr Andrew Bayliss, Associate Professor of Greek History at the University of Birmingham, UK, and author of The Spartans: A Very Short Introduction.

John J. Miller is joined by Paul A. Rahe of Hillsdale College to discuss 'The Histories' by Herodotus.

Join us for a very special episode as we commemorate Oxi Day – the historic moment on October 28, 1940, when Greece famously defied Mussolini's ultimatum, shouting a resounding “No!” to fascist occupation. This act of defiance marked Greece's entry into WWII, leaving a profound mark on world history, as Greece's resistance slowed Axis powers and inspired global hope. Special, expert guest Greek Consul General, Yiannis Mallikourtis, brings a behind the scenes look into the history of the moment, while WWII aficionado, Nick Andriotakis, shares both the global and Australian reaction to the act of defiance. A must listen for all history buffs and members of the Greek diaspora.This episode is proudly brought to you by:St Nicholas Senior Care Centre: https://acare.au/Edgility: https://www.edgility.com.au/The Greek Providore: https://thegreekprovidore.com.au/Send us a text Support the showEmail us at ouzotalk@outlook.comSubscribe to our Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3n85GSdk5Q&t=6sFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OuzoTalkFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ouzo_talk/

Hypatia was one of the most extraordinary figures of the ancient world. Born in Alexandria around 355 AD, Hypatia was a pioneering mathematician, astronomer, and philosopher who defied the constraints of her time to become a symbol of intellectual excellence and resilience. She is a key person credited with the preservation of classic textbooks that still have references that are used to this day. She was a prominent teacher and scholar in the Neoplatonic school of thought. As the political and religious climate in Alexandria became increasingly volatile, Hypatia found herself at the center of a conflict between emerging Christian beliefs and the traditional pagan philosophies she championed. We'll unfold how these circumstances led to her tragic death. Follow us on IG: @homance_chronicles Connect with us: linktr.ee/homance Send us a Hoe of History request: homancepodcast@gmail.com

For a little over 200 years, the First Persian Empire ruled over a vast expanse across three continents, making it arguably the world's first great superpower. At its peak, it stretched from its base in Persia - roughly analogous to modern-day Iran, all the way to India in the East, incorporating swathes of Central Asia, Egypt, Libya and Iraq. It also conquered ancient powers such as Pharaonic Egypt, and the Neo-Babylonian Empire. Altogether, it ruled an area that now comprises some twenty nation-states. But from where did it spring, and how did it establish such formidable power? Who were its leaders? And what led to its decline, completed with such ferocity by Alexander the Great? This is a Short History Of… The First Persian Empire. A Noiser production, written by Dan Smith.

For decades, George has been Sam's only co-worker with access to a microphone. That ends today, as we welcome Sam's LA work husband Ismael Loufti to the pod to talk about straight men's obsession with knowing things about events and places. Unfortunately, implying that straight men are the only people who know historical facts puts us in quite a rhetorical bind, and our attempts to get out of that bind lead us to digging an even deeper hole for ourselves. Luckily, that hole is where we thrive!

Prophecy Radio episode #107 discusses ALL of the recent Percy Jackson and the Olympians footage, including teasers, photos, and interviews because the SAG-AFTRA strike is now officially over! We also break down the latest Riordanverse news, including a super fun Read Riordan article and Rick's latest blog post. Could this be the end of Kristen's Korner forever!? Tune in to find out! New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:01:39) If you couldn't tell, we're VERY excited to jump into this week's discussion because it's been a long, long, LONG time coming. But first, make sure you check out this hilarious article from Read Riordan titled, “The Monster's Guide to Posing as a Human.” Rick also gave us yet another blog post on November 10. But it didn't tell us anything we didn't already know, and we'll discuss more of what he posted about later. Could this be the final Kristen's Korner!? The strikes are over and we are free to talk about Percy Jackson and the Olympians! You can read the full text of the agreement between the AMPTP and SAG-AFTRA on the SAG-AFTRA website. There's also a thread on Twitter that gives you a good overview. We go over a few of the highlights, including the amount of money in new wages and the streaming participation bonus. SAG also negotiated for consent and compensation for the use of AI, but let's be honest here: this is not the end of the discussion by far. This contract only lasts three years, and it'll be interesting to see what's changed in that time. Increased pension and health caps are important! And so are the protections for diverse communities. Overall, this did a lot for the community, and we hope everyone benefits greatly moving forward. Percy Jackson and the Olympians teaser trailers and images (00:11:47) But now it's time to talk about all of the footage, images, and interviews for Percy Jackson and the Olympians we couldn't discuss previously! We have A LOT to get through, so sit back, put on your thinking cap, and let us know if we've missed any details. First up, we have the teaser for the teaser trailer. We finally have a premiere date, and it's coming so much sooner than expected! It's interesting that we're already getting a look at shots from the END of the season. Karen really went all out to get all the details. Did you see the giant skeleton hanging from the ceiling of the Poseidon cabin? We're guessing at a lot of the context of these scenes, but we're pretty sure we're right. Who can do a smoky eye better than Medusa!? Did you catch Thalia's tree along the left side of the screen as the trio was leaving camp? Annabeth is most likely stabbing the chimera, and she looks SO BADASS. We're gonna be emotionally damaged when the minotaur attacks Sally. Glynn Turman really has the best voice for the character of Chiron! We love the outro titles, along with the cover of Vance Joy's “Riptide” by Stealth. This teaser didn't give away any big moments, especially for those unfamiliar with the story. We discuss the list of directors for each episode of Percy Jackson and the Olympians James Bobin has a lot of great productions under his belt targeted toward children. Jet Wilkinson has dome some SERIOUS directorial work for Disney already, along with some other great shows. Anders Engström has done a few projects we've heard about, and one of them was with Jon Steinberg and Dan Shotz. Did you read the September 18 Entertainment Weekly article? We talk about Aryan Simhadri as Grover, along with how a Black Annabeth falls perfectly in line with what Rick wanted to accomplish with this story. We also get FOUR new still and discuss them in detail. Okay, it's time to talk about the real teaser trailer now. We're really loving that cover of “Riptide.” Here's the statue of Perseus that Percy is looking at while at the museum. Mr. Brunner is very excited to be teaching Greek History. Percy is SO ready to beat up Nancy Bobofit on Grover's behalf. Megan Mulally as Mrs. Dodds is truly inspired casting. We try to figure out why Percy is crying into the mirror. Did you catch all the details on Zeus' throne? We love the exchange between Percy and Grover in this trailer. Is Percy standing on the porch of the Big House in the next shot? Why are the Poseidon and Ares signs the only ones painted? Chiron has a brace on his leg, and we love this added detail SO MUCH. Did you catch the details of Hades and Persephone's thrones? Liam Crowley has an interview that explains the direction they took with the Underworld. PercySeries released some blurry photos during our recording that we pick apart. Did you spot Auntie Em's Garden Gnome Emporium, along with the Lotus Hotel & Casino? Will we see the human skin on Ares' motorcycle!? Is that statue of Aphrodite an automaton? Was that the Oracle or another creature? Why is Annabeth hugging Percy!? Did you know some people think this show looks low budget??? We've seen the minotaur scene a hundred times and it's still gonna wreck us. According to Rick, he has a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo in the show. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like Becky's made the cut. We also got confirmation that he's NOT the Empire State Building Security Guard. Don't forget to pick up an official Camp Half-Blood T-shirt from Hot Topic. Knight Edge Media revealed the episode titles for Percy Jackson and the Olympians. It's now time to talk about everything that came out of NYCC 2023! Go follow Liam Crowley on Twitter because he has a lot of great coverage! Fans will definitely get some surprises in the first season. Did you see the description of the first seven minutes of the show? The first exclusive clip was Mr. Brunner giving Percy Riptide. The second exclusive clip was the minotaur scene. Everyone is excited for fans to see the chimera and Cerberus. Rick and Becky showed up to introduce the capture the flag scene. Make sure you watch through the credits. Here are some new images of Walker Scobell as Percy Jackson. Did you see the amazing motion poster—which is also a subway ad? Yes, the Percy Jackson and the Olympians teaser trailer is the most popular video on the Disney+ YouTube Channel. Bear McCreary is scoring PJOTV. Azrael Dalman will play young Percy Jackson. It's time to go through ALL the official cast photos and look for hints at what's to come. Here's the BTS photos of Lin-Manuel Miranda on set. Do yourself a favor and set time aside to read the Variety cover story on Percy Jackson and the Olympians. We're probably getting a new trailer (and maybe a season 2 announcement?) on November 16. Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 108, in which we'll discuss Chalice of the Gods chapters 12-14! This episode's hosts are: Karen Rought and Kristen Kranz.

In this episode, I conduct an in-person interview with the Assistant Director of the British School at Athens, Dr Giorgos Mouraditis. Giorgos' research focuses on athletic self-representation in inscriptions from the Hellenistic and Imperial periods.  Listeners will be familiar with the British School of Athens from the last episode when I met with its Director, Professor Rebecca Sweetman, to discuss the exciting public engagement work that the institute is working on.  I returned to the BSA for a short visit in May of this year during the fieldwork I am conducting for my thesis chapter in Greece. I thought it might be fun to throw my mic in my rucksack and do some field interviews while I am on the road!Giorgos' upcoming project, ‘Athletics and Paideia' investigates the role of monuments in preserving and the diffusion of knowledge about Hellenic culture and civic education. Giorgos has an upcoming publication that explores Money and Honour in athletics this autumn, and a chapter in a forthcoming volume on Paideia and Performance (2023).You can follow Dr Mouraditis on Twitter @Giorgos_m776 and Instagram @Giorgos.m776.

The curriculum of this school year meets the children in these adventures and takes them into the mysteries of ancient civilizations and the magical realms of the world of trees and plants. While we look back through the lens of ancient civilizations and begin to contemplate the future, our center stays rooted in the present as we explore the realm of the plant kingdom, take further strides in mathematics, strengthen our writing skills, and create beauty every step of the way. Children at this age find themselves at a point of dynamic balance between earlier years of their childhood and the near-future years of adolescence. They feel confident, graceful, and capable most of the time, and a sense of harmony with the world becomes a part of most experiences. Explorations of the cultural beauty of several ancient civilizations (Persia, Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece) through stories, geography, art, and mythology will bring all to the early history and the many lessons Ancient Greece has given us. Language Arts curriculum will weave through all the blocks expanding children's grammar, composition, and reading capacities. Natural Science elements of the curriculum will thread through the realm of trees and plants (Botany) as we further expand our relationship to the blessings of plant life and the many gifts that we can give and receive to and from our beautiful Earth. Math curriculum will be full of color as freehand geometry and illustrated word problems accompany our practice and expanding skills of working with large numbers and fractions; and introductions to decimals, the metric system of measurement, and the ancient ways of recording numbers and measuring spaces.

Greek football - or soccer - teams have delivered some important performances on the European stage these past weeks, and fans are rightfully excited across the country. While fans celebrate these victories, a cloud hangs over the sport. Fan violence is back in the spotlight after a Greek fan was killed recently in an altercation with Croatian hooligans in Athens. The incident has sparked a debate about violence in the game and the government's responsibilities, and UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin met with Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Wednesday to address what he called “the cancer of football”. Professor Alexander Kitroeff, a Professor of History at Haverford College and the author of the book Ελλάς, Ευρώπη Παναθηναϊκός! 100 Χρόνια Ελληνική Ιστορία - Greece, Europe, Panathinaikos! 100 Years of Greek History, joins Thanos Davelis to discuss these latest developments.You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:UEFA and Greece to clamp down on football hooligans after fan's death in AthensUEFA's Ceferin calls on Europe to end ‘cancer' of soccer violencePM announces soccer club club fan associations will closeNagorno-Karabakh residents say 'disastrous' blockade choking suppliesMount an airlift to feed Nagorno-KarabakhRussia risks war with NATO in Black Sea, former top commander in Europe warns

In this week's episode, Zofia interviews the Director of the British School at Athens (BSA), Professor Rebecca Sweetman. Rebecca has stepped into the role of Director of the BSA for the next few years and has really hit the ground running. We discuss the role and responsibilities of the institute and the exciting outreach she is leading with her fantastic teams in Athens and Knossos. With the 50th anniversary of the Fitch Laboratory coming up next year, we discuss how researchers, academics, artists, poets, and more are making use of the incredible library, archives, and collaborative space to engage with  Greece of the past and future. Professor Sweetman has published on the religious networks and economies of Roman and Late Antique Crete, and the Peloponnesus. She is currently working on a project on the Cycladic islands and the networks that connected them throughout changing social circumstances in the Roman and Late Antique periods. She is also one of my PhD supervisors at the University of St Andrews!Follow this link, if you would like to read about Rebecca's fascinating work!To get in touch with the BSA, you can email admin@bsa.ac.uk, and for more information about the exciting events taking place, check out the link here.You can follow the exciting events going on at the BSA on Twitter, Facebook , andYoutube !To get in touch and find out more about Two Friends Talk History:Find us on InstagramSupport us through Patreon Buy our merch on RedbubbleExplore more resources and topics about the ancient world on ArchaeoArtistMusic by the wonderfully talented Chris SharplesImage credits: cover illustration by Zofia GuertinIf you'd like to get in touch, email at twofriendstalkhistory@gmail.com. See you soon with new friends, on Two Friends.

The end... or an anti-climax? Some scholars think this may have been a later add-on after Homer was long gone. Listen in as Dr. Gary Stickel and Sean Marlon Newcombe discuss. 

In this weeks episode we are going down a very deep rabbit hole with the nightmarish A Wounded Fawn. Words don't do this movie justice...at all. We try to decipher what the film is or isnt trying to say. We also try to figure what genre this film actually is? Is this movie actually real or did we imagine it all? Leigh gives everyone a Greek History lesson and takes the best stab at trying to decode the films overall themes/plot. Simon however has absolutely no idea what the hell is going on and is very afraid of whatever the fuck is going on. All this and more in this very interesting new episode

An absolutely classic, iconic movie, Jason and the Argonauts (1963) has captured the imagination of young people for 60 years.  Notable for the wonderful stop-motion animation effects of Ray Harryhausen, the film also stars Honor Blackman who went on to her own iconic work as "Cathy Gale" in "The Avengers" British tv series and "Pussy Galore" in "Goldfinger."Sean Marlon Newcombe and Dr. Gary Stickel discuss this legendary film. 

In this week's episode of Two Friends Talk History, Zofia is joined by Dr Sam Ellis, an expert in the language of tyranny in antiquity and the study of monocratic power in the Greek polis from the Archaic to the Hellenistic period.  We explore how the language used to frame the actions of sole rulers has created a construct of 'tyrant' that remains with us today.  For a suggested reading list and more information, please check out my website for a blog post on this episode and more resources.You can get in touch with Dr Ellis on the Universität Mannheim website here,  or you can follow him on Academia.edu.

A couple of days ago I interviewed AJ Ginnis about his miraculous second place finish at the Chamonix World Cup slalom…then he went ahead and won the silver medal at the World Ski Championships. From growing up in Greece to his time in Austria, school in the United States, and ultimately representing Greece on the world stage, we cover AJ's whole story. His telling of his Chamonix race gave me goosebumps. Then we go on to talk about a host of other topics, and to finish it off AJ answers a few questions from our listeners.Send questions, comments, and grievances to arccityjimmy@gmail.com or on Instagram @jimmy_who_ !NEW!

What can the lives of the Ancient Greeks teach us about how to live well?'The Age Of Alexander' by Plutarch is a selection of 9 Greek lives from his work called 'Parallel Lives'. It covers prominent people from various locations and various professions, but all from around ~400 BC to 300 BC. It focuses mostly on their achievements with quotes, battle statistics, 1st hand sources, moments from their life and overall actions/behaviours.I summarised the book as follows. "It's a glimpse into the lives of great men, if not necessarily good men. Somewhat sombre due to the carnage but provides enough to get a feel for the person. I found it surprisingly applicable to current situations as decisions/outcomes are derived from one's character. Not hard to pick some qualities you lack and could cultivate."I hope you have a fantastic day wherever you are in the world.

Marios Koutsoukos (PhD candidate in History of Religions in the Late Antiquity at the University of Liverpool (UK)) has also been involved in the international metal music scene, writing lyrics and developing concepts for bands in Greece as well as worldwide and a bass player, since 2004. With Marios, we discuss: - Why is metal music inspired by Greek history and mythology, more so by ancient Sparta? - If metal music influences our perception of classic times also more recent historical events. - Has metal music promoted nationalism, or have nationalists utilised heavy metal music? - Femininity and Masculinity in the metal scene: "doing gender" or "undoing gender"? Marios is also an epic fiction bilingual author, French Language and Literature graduate from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (Greece) and an MA holder in Creative Writing (the Hellenic Open University, Greece).

In 480BC, the Spartans secured their place in history when 300 of their soldiers fought to the death against the mighty Persian army at Thermopylae. Their reputation for brutal decisiveness and simple living have been admired for thousands of years. But what about the darker side of Spartan ideology, a society that culled weak babies, forced children to fight, and enslaved its neighbours? Was Sparta really a utopia? Or was Aristotle right when he said that Spartans simply made men into machines? This is a Short History of the Spartans. Written by Jo Furniss. With thanks to Dr Andrew Bayliss, Associate Professor of Greek History at the University of Birmingham, UK, and author of The Spartans: A Very Short Introduction.

Our saga of Alexander the Great continues... or begins, as Alexander is pooped out into the world, electrified by the jizzbolts of the mighty Zeus! But lil' Alex isn't great just yet, he is just a baby boy! His daddy Philp on the other hand is smacking around all of his other Hellenic neighbors, even scores himself a druggie Oracle. DOPE! But when you fly too close to Helios, you're gonna get burned.

We begin are hard as hell epic of Alexander the Great. Not even making it out of the womb, we cover the hell out of ancient ionic Greek and their slick thighs

In describing the punishment that Zeus would levy upon the world for the "transgression" of man using fire, Hesiod wrote, "At once he made an affliction for mankind..."  What was that "affliction," you ask?  Women.  And so begins our journey into the world of Hesiod, a man whose writing shaped the Greek view of the world in such a way that misogyny was considered the norm-- a norm that would echo down through the ages and affect the world that we live in today. 

Martial arts like Karate, Kung Fu, and Muay Thai might dominate popular culture, but did you know that Greece's own Martial art pre-dates them all? Attributed to Hercules and Theseus in mythology, Pankration was one of the original Olympic sports, and original Mixed Martial Art, combining wrestling and boxing with chokes, locks and kicks into a single system that ended up permeating Ancient Greek society and culture - ultimately inspiring virtually all the forms that followed. Tom and Nick are joined by Pankration advocates, coaches and champions in Kon Pappy and Costas Prasoulas to talk about the origin of the sport, why it isn't in the modern Olympics, and the work being done to elevate its global status.This episode of Ouzo Talk is brought to you by:Mootch & Me: https://www.mootchandme.com.au/Also, check out:The Fight Lab: https://www.thefightlab.com.au/Zeus Academy: https://zeusacademy.com.au/Australian Federation of Pankration: https://www.pankration.org.au/australian-federation-of-pankrationSupport the showEmail us at ouzotalk@outlook.comSubscribe to our Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3n85GSdk5Q&t=6sFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OuzoTalkFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ouzo_talk/

When the Greek Revolution started This Week in History in 1821, the wealth Greek ship owner Bouboulina gathered her fleet and sailed into battle against the Ottoman Empire.

A little bit of a pivot this week; instead of the Battle of Kleidion (which will just get pushed back a week) you'll be listening to a chat between myself and Brett from the Whiskey Tango Podcast. I've got a nasty little cold that's keeping me from recording but Brett and I have been talking about doing a joint show for a while and we finally got one recorded. I had a blast and getting to actually speak to someone instead of the wall of my recording closet was a nice change of pace. Ipsus is a fantastic battle to cover and I think you guys will enjoy it!

The Greek city of Miletos in western Anatolia would be described by Herodotus as being the ornament of Ionia. This referring to the affluence of the city during the Archaic period and its position amongst the many other Greek cities in Ionia. In this episode I am joined by Prof. Vanessa Gorman who takes us through the history of this wealthy and influential city. We begin by covering the earliest periods of history around the site of Miletus, which leads us into the Bronze Age and the various connections the city had. We then look at the period of the Bronze Age collapse in the region and the period afterward that would see the arrival of the Greeks from mainland Greece. We then look at a city that would become one of the most affluent within the Greek world during the Archaic period. Before we then turn to the decline of Miletus on the backdrop of the subjugation to the Lydian and then the Persian Empire. We then finish off with a bit of an overview of the city after the Greek and Persian Wars before then ending with a look at an open-source language course developed by Prof. Gorman.  Prof. Vanessa Gorman received her PhD in Classical Studies at the University of Pennsylvania in May 1993. Since then, she has held various position as associate professor and associate dean, where in 2015 she became Professor of the Department of History at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, a position she currently still holds. In 2021 she also took on a position in the Department of Classics and Religious Studies at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.Prof. Gorman's areas of expertise lay within the areas of Greek History and Historiography; Greek Language Pedagogy; Philology and Dependency Syntax and Digital Humanities. While she also focuses on Republican and Augustan Roman History and Roman Historiography.For Prof. Gorman, language was a huge part of her journey into understanding the ancient world to where she would become proficient in reading Ancient Greek, Latin, German, Italian and French. Her realisation of the importance of language also saw Prof. Gorman create an open-source course available to all called Reading Ancient Greek in the Digital Age.Links to Prof. Gorman's work:Greek Lanuage Site:https://vgorman1.github.io/Greek-Language-Class/ Digital Publications:Greek Dependency Treebanks:https://github.com/vgorman1/Greek-Dependency-Trees  https://perseids-publications.github.io/gorman-trees/ Books:https://www.amazon.com/Miletos-Ornament-Ionia-History-B-C/dp/0472037773/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1648058469&sr=8-1https://www.amazon.com/Corrupting-Luxury-Ancient-Greek-Literature/dp/0472052292/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1648058524&sr=8-3Edited Volumes:https://www.amazon.com/Oikistes-Constitutions-J-Bibliotheca-Supplementum/dp/9004125795/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?crid=1BCPSW0TOAWFZ&keywords=o+Oikistes%3A+Studies+in+Constitutions&qid=1648058666&sprefix=o+oikisSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/castingthroughancientgreece)

The Olympics is one of the oldest traditions known to the world. The ancient Olympic tradition began in Ancient Greece where the strongest men from each region of the ancient Greek empire gathered to compete in the greek olympia for glory, honor, prestige, and fame. Modern-day Olympics started in the early 20th century, and since its inception have been an incredibly politicized event. This week the boys talk about the olympics and the extent to which it has become a globally adopted political tool in different governments belt. [01:30] Greek History of Olympics.
