On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918, the fighting on the Western Front ceased, marking Armistice Day and the end of the Great War, World War one. Following World War two, the name was changed in many countries to commemorate those who died in both wars and all subsequent conflicts. This solemn day to honor veterans and remember those who have died in military service is now recognized as Veterans Day in the United States, or Remembrance Day in Commonwealth countries, including Canada.

In 1918, on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, the fighting on the Western Front ceased, marking Armistice Day and the end of the Great War, World War one. The First World War officially came to an end on November 11th, 1918, when all troops kept a minute of silence, described by many soldiers who were on battlefields during that moment, as a religious experience when the Almighty spoke clearly to mankind—the sudden silence being the Voice of God.

The connection between Christianity and witches is primarily one of conflict, as mainstream Christian theology considers witchcraft an abomination based on biblical prohibitions against sorcery and divination. However, the relationship is also complex, with some individuals identifying as "Christian witches" who believe witchcraft and Christian faith can be compatible, while others see witchcraft as a practice separate from religion. Historically, there are instances of both persecution and folk magic that incorporated Christian elements.

Jesus failed to show up on the day that came to be known as ‘The Great Disappointment' - 22nd October, 1844. It was an embarrassment for the New England preacher, William Miller, who had prophesied Christ's return; and devastating for his 100,000+ followers in North America alone. Miller had calculated the end of the world via an idiosyncratic interpretation of Daniel 8:14 (“And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed”). In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly consider how the Millerites processed their monumental anti-climax; reveal what Ralph Waldo Emerson made of it all; and wonder whether Miller's flexibility in the face of contrary evidence has parallels in the modern-day QAnon movement… Further Reading: • ‘William Miller Convinced Thousands of Millerites the End Was Near' (New England Historical Society, 2020): https://www.newenglandhistoricalsociety.com/william-miller-convinced-thousands-millerites-world-end/ • ‘The Great Disappointment' (Grace Communion International): https://www.gci.org/articles/the-great-disappointment/ • ‘William Miller Predicted Christ's Return in 1844.

What's the real deal with history? Is history as straightforward as we make it out to be? Don't you ever wonder who decides which stories make the cut? Whose narratives get the spotlight? And who decides what's deemed worthy of preservation regarding our people and culture? We all know how Black history across the globe has been swiped, twisted, and rewritten by colonialism. But how is this being challenged? How can we ensure our stories aren't just fabricated footnotes in someone else's tale? Our guest today, Kamau Ware, has some thoughts on that front. Kamau is not your average historian – he's also a visual artist and founder of the groundbreaking Black Gotham Experience, also known as BGX. Through historic walks across the Big Apple, photography-based graphic novels, and unique events, BGX shines a light on the massive impact of the African Diaspora. As a storyteller extraordinaire, Kamau is rewriting the rules of preserving Black history, and he's here to drop some insights that will have you looking at history in new and interesting ways. -- Black History Year (BHY) is produced by PushBlack, the nation's largest non-profit Black media company.

Original Episode Title: Teddy Roosevelt Nearly Died in a Cavalry Charge Against German Machine Guns in WW1Suggested Show Notes/Description: Teddy Roosevelt faced many challenges at the end of his life. Racked by rheumatism, a ticking embolism, pathogens in his blood, a bad leg from an accident, and a bullet in his chest from an assassination attempt. But none of that stopped Roosevelt from attempting to reassemble the Rough Riders for a final charge against the Germans in World War One, pushing them into a likely suicide mission of a cavalry attack against 50 caliber machine guns.Suffering from grief and guilt, marginalized by world events, the great glow that had been his life was now but a dimming lantern. But TR's final years were productive ones as well: he churned out several “instant” books that promoted U.S. entry into the Great War, and he was making plans for another run at the Presidency in 1920 at the time of his death. Indeed, his political influence was so great that his opposition to the policies of Woodrow Wilson helped the Republican Party take back the Congress in 1918. To look at Roosevelt's final years, Scott Rank, host of History Unplugged, speaks with Bill Hazelgrove, author of “The Last Charge of the Rough Rider.” It was Roosevelt's quest for the “vigorous life” that, ironically, may have led to his early demise at the age of sixty. "The Old Lion is dead,” TR's son Archie cabled his brother on January 6, 1919, and so, too, ended a historic era in American life and politics.

If Alexander The Great Hadn't Died, He Might Have Conquered Europe, Circumnavigated Africa, and Built His Own Silk Road“And Alexander wept, seeing as he had no more worlds to conquer.” That's a quote from Hans Gruber in Die Hard, which is a very convoluted paraphrase from Plutarch's essay collection “Moralia.” Despite the questionable sourcing, there's plenty of truth in that unattributed quote from Mr. Gruber. Alexander the Great's death at 323 BC in Babylon marked the end of the most consequential military campaign in antiquity. He left behind an empire that stretched from Greece to India, planted the seeds of the Silk Road, and made Greek an international language across Eurasia, all in 13 short years. He became and remained the biggest celebrity in the ancient world, probably only replaced by Jesus a few centuries into the Christian era. But what if he had not died as a young man? What if he had lived years or decades more? How much more influence could he have had? We have clues about Alexander's plans for the future – and they come from Greek chroniclers Diodorus and Arrian, writing centuries after his death. They include conquering the Mediterranean coast all the way to the Pillars of Hercules (Rock of Gibraltar), building a tomb for his father Philp that would be as large as the Great Pyramid of Giza, and transplanting populations from Greece to Persia and vice versa to unite his domains through intermarriage.To explore this hypothetical scenario is Anthony Everitt, author of “Alexander the Great: His Life and Mysterious Death.” We look at the life of the most influential person in the ancient world, and explore the ramifications of his life having even more influence.Links for Show Notes:Continue listening to History Unplugged:Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3Ysc7ZgSpotify: https://spoti.fi/3j0QRJyParthenon: https://www.parthenonpodcast.com/history-unplugged-podcastDiscover more episodes of History Unplugged: Lost Airmen: The Epic Rescue of WWII U.S. Bomber Crews Stranded in the Yugoslavian Mountains: https://apple.co/3Weu5wr / https://spoti.fi/3HunolzThe Way that Lincoln Financed the Civil War Led to Transcontinental Railroads, Public Colleges, the Homestead Act, and Income Tax: https://apple.co/3iVtpxs / https://spoti.fi/3iYxtx6After Custer's Last Stand, Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse Fought an Impossible Battle To Preserve the Sioux Nation: https://apple.co/3uKbc8F / https://spoti.fi/3BvFLTk Almost President: Stephen Douglas, Thomas Dewey, and Other Failed Candidates That Would've Altered History Most by Winning: https://apple.co/3hgdVDZ / https://spoti.fi/3FlO2ujNo Supply Chain Was More Complicated Than the Allies' During WW2.

The history of the world is full of unsung heroes and misunderstood figures who have shaped our lives in profound ways. Their contributions to history are, simply put, underrated. Recently, four of the guys from the Parthenon Podcast Network (Josh Cohen from Eyewitness History, Richard Lim from This American President, Steve Guerra from History of the Papacy and Beyond the Big Screen, and Scott Rank from History Unplugged) discussed who they believe is the most underrated figure in US History (James was busy and sat this one out).
Today's episode is a round table of the podcasters who make up the Parthenon Podcast Network (Steve Guerra from Beyond the Big Screen; Josh Cohen from Eyewitness History, Richard Lim from This American President, and Scott Rank from History Unplugged). We discuss the most overlooked and underappreciated people in history and get into why they were overlooked and underappreciated in the first place.

This episode is a preview of History Unplugged hosted by Scott Rank, a podcast in the Parthenon Podcast network.War is assumed to be one of the chief features of human history. Plenty of ancient and modern writers back up this perspective (Plato said that only the dead have seen the end of war; John Steinbeck said all war is a symptom of man's failure as a thinking animal, suggesting it was hard-wired into our brutish nature). But what if the conventional wisdom is wrong? What if war isn't the status quo? This is the argument made by today's guest, who says prolonged violence between groups isn't normal. Wars shouldn't happen, and most of the time they don't.Listen to the rest of the episode at https://www.spreaker.com/user/10740198/history-unplugged-why-we-fight-with-adsLearn more about History Unplugged and subscribe at:https://www.parthenonpodcast.com/history-unplugged-podcast/

The Synod of Whitby was the event where a number of threads of the story come together. Computus, monastic practices and King Oswiu of Northumbria's family problems were at least partially settled. Let's find out how!•With that, here is the next piece of the mosaic of the history of the Popes of Rome and Christian Church.[00:00:00] We've talked about colo and Colomb Bonis who are some of the other, um, big names we should keep our eyes on. Yeah. So there were. Uh, there's so many saints that you can have a, a look at, um, there's Adam, who is the, the author of the life of St. Columbus. He's a Saint in his own. Right. And he wrote a number of things.There's of course, bead, uh, there's Malachy of Armand that I am, of course interested in because he spent time as Abbot at banger as well. There's. Um, I'm trying to think. Names have just flown right out of my head. There's St. Brendan who most people will know of as Brendan the navigator. There's kinda, there's more saints than you could shake a stick at, as you like to say, where I grew up Oswalt.He was the king of Benicia and. Was that a Celtic land? No. So that is, uh, gonna be sex and kingdoms. We [00:01:00] would know them more, uh, generally as Northumbria, but there would've been a certain amount of, uh, crossover because it was so far north. Yeah. So there would be. Crossover you we've got these different kinda kingdoms that are pushing against each other.And so they're gonna have conflicts, they're gonna have intermarriages, there's gonna be power fluctuations in the area. And the thing about OAL is that he and his brother awe had spent time in Del RDA, or maybe in Ireland as well when they were in exile, their. Side of the family had kind of been overthrown from the throne.And so they had to go into exile. So they were educated in this kind of Gaelic or Gaelic church situation. And so when OAL regained the throne, you know, he asked Iona to provide a Bishop for not only him self, but also to help with the conversion process for his kingdom. And it [00:02:00] was an Ivan who he then gave land to at Linda's farm to found a monastery there.So although this was a north kingdom, we're seeing this Iona or this Irish brand of Christianity being the one that's brought in and you'll even see when be talks of a out. The conversion of north embryo. He is very positive and effusive about the Irish. It's almost so the Irish can't do anything wrong, even when they are doing things wrong versus the way he talks about the British church.You know, he's taking part of it from Gilda who thinks that everyone is terrible all the time, but he's also upset wel or the British or Welsh. If you wanna call em that. Didn't engage in the conversion of the north Umbrians or of the Saxons, but we can wonder, you know, to what degree you would want to be part of the conversion process of your enemy.If the Saxons had come to conquer your [00:03:00] lands, like, are you gonna turn around and be like, Hey, let's talk about Jesus. So we, all of that going on Oswald is a sax. In an Anglosaxon area that has Celtic in it, but he asks Iona to bring a Bishop Aiden or you pronounced it. Ivan. I Ivan. Yes, Ivan. Um, he, who presumably is Celtic to set up the, this farm in north.Where does. What kind of flavor does that give the, the Linda's farm monastery when it's getting set up, as far as theology goes, Yeah. So we would really consider that kind of this Irish style, uh, monastery, you know, they would look to Iona for a lot of information and support and so we could consider it very closely, kind of.I don't wanna say [00:04:00] allies, but I'll, I'll say it anyway, Alli to Iona and of a mind with it. If you like, and this will change very starkly after the Sy of Whitby. And that's when we see it change to this Northumbrian or this more Roben style, because they decide or. Us. We really decides to, you know, we're gonna go with this calculation that Rome is going with, even though Rome had recently changed which calculation they were going with.And you don't see that mentioned in be, you don't see that mentioned in. The life of Columb Bon, you don't see that mentioned the life of Wilfrid. You know, they're not going, oh, Hey, by the way, Rome just recently changed. They're they're kind of smoothing all of that over to make it seem like Rome was, you know, of the same position the whole time.That's that's really interesting. One question I have. One is bead writing in comparison to these events that we're talking about. [00:05:00] Yeah. So bead was alive at this time. So he knew Wilfred personally. Um, as far as his specific dates, let me have a quick think. So, yeah, he would've been like late seventh towards like, not quite mid eighth century, but yeah, he is said to have known Adam men personally and Adam men have.Said to have gone down to visit with him. So yeah, he is. He's talking about a lot of events as far as the Easter controversy goes that he'll have been, you know, really close to. So this isn't the case of like writing a hundred years later or 200 years later. And through beads writing, do we see him as he leaning more towards.The Roman position or more towards the Iver position, given that he was a Linda farm guy. So he wasn't a Linda's farm guy. He was [00:06:00] born near the, the monastery of Yaro. And so, oh, that's right. Yeah. yeah. So he's north UMBR and he is firmly on the north thumb side as far as school. So he. He's very, you know, we are properly Orthodox and we are following the way of Rome.And so, yeah, it it's obvious where his kind of proclivities lie if you like, and yeah, that's he likes the Irish, but he is like, oh, well, even when they're wrong, they're still trying really hard to be. Right. So we should still like them, but before we move any of. Um, too much further.

There were many issues, groups and opinions at play. Let's find out more!•With that, here is the next piece of the mosaic of the history of the Popes of Rome and Christian Church.[00:00:00] I'd like to welcome back Dr. Carly McNamara to discuss our, or to continue discussing our trip through the history of Christianity in Ireland and the British ISS. I would definitely highly suggest you go back and listen to the previous episodes, especially the one on archeology. I think people will really enjoy the at.Today, we're diving into a really interesting topic that I think is incredibly important and probably not as well known, especially when you really dig into the nitty gritty of the topic. And it's the Easter controversy in between the churches and Ireland and in England and the British aisles in general, uh, maybe layouts, um, that Dr.McNamara, some of the. Issues that are involved with this Easter controversy. Yeah. So the main issue of course, is the calculation of when Easter is meant to fall. [00:01:00] And so this is done through a process called computes, which is just. The name for the masks involved. And it's generally a, a fairly complicated process because it deals with both lunar and solar calendars.And in addition to that, it's got to be after the date of Passover. So it has to occur after the Equinox and the full moon. After Passover, but also on a Sunday. And that just almost feels like a mental game of twister so it get into some fairly complex masks that, that I try to avoid myself as a historian, but yeah, that's the main thing.And then other things that we see discussed, um, in Ireland and Britain space civically is kind of the Tarcher that is used by monks in orders. There's some other really brief mentions of other possible things, but they're never really identified clearly. And it may just [00:02:00] kind of be people trying to, to make digs at each other in small ways.It's a, the, the whole idea, the. Dating of Easter. It's so complicated. I got into this in some of my earlier episodes on the council of NAC, where they really hammered that out. And, uh, there was a big controversy, whether it should always be on the certain date, the 15th of ni Nissan, or should it be on the Sunday.And so they come up with this really complicated equation of, like you said, all these different dates that are swirling around each other. Uh, Was it pretty much that by the point that the Irish and that the Easter controversy in Britain, the, I guess you might say that the broad strokes of it were figured out the Easter controversy, but now they're digging into sort of controversy 2.0 of these whole ideas of lunar cycles and you yearly cycles and it's, it's even more complicated than.What they were arguing [00:03:00] about a few hundred years earlier at the council of NAIA. Yeah, I think you're right. I think this really is kind of Easter controversy. 2.0, if you like, and you know, for people who have heard of the Easter controversy, it's really usually fashioned in this. You know, quote unquote Irish church versus the Roman church, but really there's three different methods of calculation that are all kind of floating around near the same time here.So we've got, what's called the 84 year cycle or the, the Celtic cycle that it's frequently called, which is what was in use in Britain and Ireland. And that includes, you know, the, the British church or what we might think of as the. It would include the Irish and the picks. So you've got them using this 84 year cycle.You've got this Victorian calculation that was created by victorious of Acutane in 4 57. That was in use in GA in Spain. And then you've got this 19 [00:04:00] year cycle that was created by DESE. Gus, uh, that didn't get adopted in Rome until the six thirties, which, you know, we might think of as fairly late in the game, as far as this is concerned.And the fact that, you know, we'll kind of talk about this in, of what only happened in 6 64. It's interesting too, because the Easter controversy and the controversy over the dating of Ireland and. Course of church history comes up again with the Gregorian calendar reforms in the middle ages. And then even today there's, if you look at the Eastern Orthodox, they've had a controversy over it.And that, that's why if you look at your calendar, they'll have the Orthodox Easter and the Catholic Easter, because it's another controversy with the dating of Easter. So we're talking about a controversy that's been brewing for 1700 years or so. Yeah, that's quite a while to still be working on the same issue.uh, that's one of the big issues with this, uh, whole controversy is [00:05:00] the Roman church is starting to get some influence. In the churches in Britain. What, what could we say about that? So I think that we wanna be careful about how much power we consider Rome to have in this period. I mean, they are recognized as the seat of Peter and Paul, so they do have this kind of.I don't no, we could call it first among equals kind of situation. So they are recognized as having a, a position of significance, but they're not the kind of powerful central, you know, seat of Catholicism. Like we see today. So today the Pope says X, Y, and Z, and everybody goes right. That's what it is. But back in this time period, there was a lot of disagreements that was happening and that was allowed to happen.And so if. Different bishops in GA or in Britain or in Ireland where having a disagreement, they might send people to [00:06:00] Rome to get Rome, to act as a kind of appellate court for decision making. So if they say we can't get together and agree on this, so we'll go to Rome, which has authority that we respect, but necessarily that we.Always obey to get some assistance in trying to make some decisions when they're having trouble. I'll use this as a time to do a little foreshadowing of my next series. I think you're absolutely correct in that what we view as PayPal power and pop power today really is a fairly modern, innovative, and it's something that they would not have recognized at all back then that a Pope could just say, well, Just do it this way and that's how it is.
