As Crassus gathered more power and wealth his success was aided by two allies. One, Julius Caesar, had received financial aid from Crassus for many years. The other, Pompeius Magnus, was at the best of times a bitter rival. Together they formed the triumvirate - more powerful together than apart. Episode CCXLI (241) Part III of Crassus Guest: Assoc.

Rebbetzin Chavi Welton, and her husband, Rabbi Levi Welton, were recently appointed shluchim (emissaries) for Chabad of Vanderbilt Alumni Association, working with your professionals in Manhattan. They will also be going on shlichus to Dix Hills, Long Island in New York, to help enhance outreach activities of the Chai Center. In addition to her spiritual work, Rebbetzin Chavi is also an OB-Gyn doctor!Rebbetzin Chavi teaches us that childbirth has a very strong connection to Chasidus. She explains that according to Basi L'Gani, a Chassidic discourse written by Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, the Jewish people are recognized as Hashem's bride, just like the woman is the bride to her husband, the chassan. Their purpose in this world is to elevate the mundane to the spiritual. In terms of having a baby, the woman experiences a physical pregnancy and childbirth. She nurses, changes diapers, bathes, and provides necessary physical care for her infant. Spiritually, the Shechina is the feminine presence of Hashem (G-d.) Making a sacred space in our world for the Shechina to rest is a very feminine task. This is done by the woman as she raises her child to observe Hashem's commandments, and therefore elevates the physical to the spiritual, bringing holiness into the world.The geula (coming of Moshiach) is often compared to childbirth. As the woman gets closer to actually birthing her child, her contractions get quicker and she experiences the most pain and discomfort. As we get closer to Moshiach being revealed, the Jewish people are experiencing various forms of severe suffering (hostages, war, anxiety, emotional disorders, etc.) May Moshiah come soon so that we can experience true pleasure and peace!Rebbetzin Chavi teaches us something very interesting about the word Caesar. The word, Caesar, means to cut. Thousands of years ago, Julius Caesar's grandfather was delivered by someone cutting his great grand-mother's stomach open to pull out the baby. This name, Caesar, stuck to future generations of the family. Caesar was a leader. A leader does what no one else can do. When they need something to happen, they will go to all lengths and extremes, literally breaking down walls (both physical and metaphorical) to make it happen. When a woman delivers a baby via Caesarian Section (C-Section), the doctor literally breaks down a wall (the mother's stomach) to take out the baby. Spiritually, it is said that the women will bring Moshiach by "breaking down walls" in their dedication to Hashem, keeping the mitzvos of the Torah, and raising children who act justly and morally, bringing Hashem's light into the world.Rebbetzin Chavi goes on to speak about pregnancy and the post-partum period of childbirth, and shares insights as to how the chasidic perspective can enhance a woman's experiences in these phases of her life. She also talks about the role that Chasidus plays in her job as a doctor and in her interactions with her patients. What resonated with me the most is the way she lives her life in total alignment with her Chasidic values and beliefs. She is an example of a righteous and wise Chasidic woman, and she conducts herself as such in the hospital with her patients. Leading by example, instead of forcing her beliefs on others, allows people to have the space to absorb her teachings and mannerisms, and to emulate them, if they choose to do so, out of their own accord.Conact: atrebbetzins@gmail.com Vera Kessler (host of America's Top Rebbetzins) is a certified life coach.

Diesmal gehen wir im Input der Frage nach, was passiert, wenn eine zentrale Instanz des Internets plötzlich handlungsunfähig ist. Der Fall Afrinic zeigt, wie fragil die weltweite Selbstverwaltung von IP-Adressen wirklich ist – und warum ein juristischer Kleinkrieg das gesamte System ins Wanken bringt. Außerdem geht es um den Papst, den Schwiegervater von Julius Caesar und wir sprechen über Briketts. Wie das alles in einem Tech-Podcast zusammenpasst, hört ihr in dieser Episode.
Talking points: history, psychology, mindset, cultureLike George Santayana said, those who do not learn from the past are condemned to repeat it. There's so much we can learn about ourselves, where we come from, and what needs our attention when we study the past. Grateful for the host of Cost of Glory, Alex Petkas, coming back on the show to lay down some real history, difficult truths, and deep insights on ol' Gaius himself.(00:00:00) - What the modern man can learn from Julius Caesar(00:17:52) - The importance of philosophy and poetry to ancient men(00:23:06) - Why Caesar's storytelling ability was so important, and how modern men can benefit from being better storytellers(00:35:51) - The usefulness of old stories and ideas, and the psychological strategies that Caesar used(00:45:48) - How Caesar handled women(00:52:12) - Misconceptions of Caesar's demise and attitudeAlex Petkas is writer, entrepreneur, and founder of The Cost of Glory, a bridge for the virtues of ancient heroes and the modern world's demands. With a PhD in Classics from Princeton University, Alex has transcended traditional academic boundaries to bring the power of ancient wisdom into contemporary leadership. Recognizing that figures like Plato, Aristotle, Plutarch, and Cato were not just intellectual giants but also formidable leaders and entrepreneurs, he blends their timeless insights with modern leadership needs, offering actionable strategies that resonate with today's leaders. Alex challenges the modern disregard for classical education, championing its vital role in moral and intellectual development. His mission is to reignite the heroic spark within men, empowering them to tackle contemporary challenges with unmatched courage and clarity.Connect with Alex-Website: https://www.costofglory.com/-The Authoritative Speakers Guide: https://costofglory.kit.com/gift-Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexpetkas/***Tired of feeling like you're never enough?

Newt talks with Italian journalist and bestselling author, Aldo Cazzullo, about his new book, “The Neverending Empire: The Infinite Impact of Ancient Rome.” They discuss the enduring influence of the Roman Empire on modern Western civilization and the United States. Cazzullo argues that the Roman Empire's legacy is evident in American democracy, architecture, and cultural symbols, asserting that the empire never truly fell but continues to live on. He highlights the parallels between Rome and the United States, such as the use of the eagle as a symbol and the strategic approach to turning defeated enemies into allies. They discuss the resilience and integration strategies of ancient Rome, the impact of Julius Caesar and Augustus, and the conversion of Rome to Christianity. Cazzullo emphasizes the importance of Rome's dream of universal peace and governance, suggesting that the United States is uniquely positioned to fulfill this vision today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In dieser True Crime-History-Sprachwissenschafts-Crossover-Folge besprechen wir einen Mord. Den Mord an einem Diktator, der mit Kalkül und Charisma die Alleinherrschaft an sich gerissen hat: Gaius Julius Caesar. Er war Feldherr, Schrifsteller, Frauenheld und der Totengräber der römischen Republik. Um seine letzten Worte ranken sich nicht erst seit Shakespeares "Auch du, Brutus?" Mythen. Nach einem kurzen Profiling unseres Opfers und der Täter schildern wir den Tathergang. Danach geht es ums Wort: Was sagte Caesar als letztes? Zu wem sprach er? Und vor allem: in welcher Sprache? Um unsere Fragen zu beantworten, bitten wir drei Zeugen zur Befragung, die uns auch bereitwillig Informationen geben, sich jedoch leider widersprechen. Es beginnt ein zähes Ringen darum, was Wahrheit und was Fiktion einzelner ist. Werden unsere zwei unerschrockenen Detektive Anton und Jakob den Fall klären können oder werden Caesars letzt Worte für immer hinter dem Schleier des Vergessens verborgen bleiben? Ein Fall von Podcast von Anton und Jakob.

The Germania (Latin: De Origine et situ Germanorum, literally The Origin and Situation of the Germans), written by Gaius Cornelius Tacitus around 98, is an ethnographic work on the Germanic tribes outside the Roman Empire. Germania fits squarely within the tradition established by authors from Herodotus to Julius Caesar. Tacitus himself had already written a similar essay on the lands and tribes of Britannia in his Agricola. The Germania begins with a description of the lands, laws, and customs of the Germanic people; it then segues into descriptions of individual tribes, beginning with those dwelling closest to Roman lands and ending on the uttermost shores of the Baltic, among the amber-gathering Aesti, the primitive and savage Fenni, and the unknown tribes beyond them.Tacitus' descriptions of the Germanic character are at times favorable in contrast to the opinions of the Romans of his day. He holds the strict monogamy and chastity of Germanic marriage customs worthy of the highest praise, in contrast to what he saw as the vice and immorality rampant in Roman society of his day, and he admires their open hospitality, their simplicity, and their bravery in battle. One should not, however, think that Tacitus' portrayal of Germanic customs is entirely favorable; he notes a tendency in the Germanic people for what he saw as their habitual drunkenness, laziness, and barbarism, among other traits. Tacitus says that physically, the Germans appeared to be a distinct race, not an admixture of their neighbors. In Chapter 4, he mentions that they have common characteristics of blue eyes, blond or reddish hair and large size.In Chapter 7, Tacitus describes their government and leadership as somewhat merit-based and egalitarian, with leadership by example rather than authority and that punishments are carried out by the priests. In Chapter 9, Tacitus describes a form of folk assembly rather similar to the public Things recorded in later Germanic sources: in these public deliberations, the final decision rests with the people of the tribe as a whole.Translated by Alfred J. Church and William J. Brodribb, in 1877. (Adapted from Wikipedia.)This is a collaborative reading.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

On today's episode, Gaius from Tribunate joins Josiah to talk about Roman history and it's parallels to the present moments. Is the U.S. in a decline like the end of the Roman Republic? Or, perhaps, the end of the Roman Empire? Why are fascists and far right groypers so obsessed with Rome?

Cleopatra VII, the last active ruler of ancient Egypt, was a brilliant and charismatic queen whose legacy still captivates the world. Known for her intelligence, political acumen, and fluency in multiple languages, she skillfully ruled Egypt during a time of immense turmoil. Unlike the myth of relying solely on her beauty, Cleopatra was a shrewd strategist who formed powerful alliances with Julius Caesar and Mark Antony. Her reign was marked by bold diplomacy, economic reform, and efforts to preserve Egypt's independence against the growing power of Rome. Personally, she was deeply loyal, passionate, and proud of her Egyptian heritage, despite being of Macedonian Greek descent. She navigated betrayals, wars, and Roman politics with unmatched resilience. Her tragic end alongside Mark Antony marked the fall of the Ptolemaic dynasty and the beginning of Roman Egypt. Cleopatra remains a symbol of power, grace, and timeless intrigue. KiranPrabha narrates the real story of Cleopatra in 2 Parts talk show. This is Part 2/Last Part.

The boys discuss the importance of cargo shorts, the Hope Diamond and the ransom of Julius Caesar
Hi friends, happy Wednesday! Julius Caesar...military genius, fashion icon, drama queen, and oh yeah—murdered by 60 of his coworkers. We've all heard the name before. Maybe you think of togas, Caesar salads (not from him btw), or that phrase "Beware the Ides of March." Whatever that means. But Caesar's real story? Lemme tell you... way messier than what they told us in school. From pirate kidnappings to public sex scandals, and flexing on his enemies to literally dumping a bucket of #2 on a senator's head— history remembers this man as some regal leader. But he was pure chaos. And his murder? Less Shakespearian tragedy and more Game of Thrones energy. So why did Rome turn on their “god”? And did Caesar kind of have it coming? Let's get into it. This is the Dark History of Julius Caesar. I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History. I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show.

Cleopatra VII, the last active ruler of ancient Egypt, was a brilliant and charismatic queen whose legacy still captivates the world. Known for her intelligence, political acumen, and fluency in multiple languages, she skillfully ruled Egypt during a time of immense turmoil. Unlike the myth of relying solely on her beauty, Cleopatra was a shrewd strategist who formed powerful alliances with Julius Caesar and Mark Antony. Her reign was marked by bold diplomacy, economic reform, and efforts to preserve Egypt's independence against the growing power of Rome. Personally, she was deeply loyal, passionate, and proud of her Egyptian heritage, despite being of Macedonian Greek descent. She navigated betrayals, wars, and Roman politics with unmatched resilience. Her tragic end alongside Mark Antony marked the fall of the Ptolemaic dynasty and the beginning of Roman Egypt. Cleopatra remains a symbol of power, grace, and timeless intrigue. KiranPrabha narrates the real story of Cleopatra in 2 Parts talk show. This is Part 1.
In today's episode, we're diving into a chaotic mix of Mexican drama, history, and unfiltered family chisme—just how we like it.

He wasn't Keanu Reeves, and he definitely wasn't a Christian hero. In this episode, we rip the golden halo off Constantine the Great and dig into the actual history behind the man who allegedly saw a cross in the sky and converted an empire. Spoiler: he was more into Apollo than Jesus.Was Constantine a devout believer or just a savvy warlord with excellent PR? We're dragging in all the big names—Diocletian, Eusebius, Helena, Galerius, Julius Caesar, Sol Invictus—and tossing their reputations on the pyre of historical comedy.Featuring entrails, imperial propaganda, and a brief stopover in ancient Canada (don't ask, just listen). Perfect for fans of religious satire, Roman drama, and anyone who's ever side-eyed Christian revisionism. Sketch comedy. Blasphemous history. Reluctant education. Because saints don't order the murder of their wives and sons. But emperors do.
Note: Title change is not mentioned in the episode. An explanation for the title change will be explained in a future episode. Andrew Roth is back with the start of the third single episode series: Rome After the Republic . In this episode, Andrew begins this saga with the man who changed Rome forever: Julius Caesar. He is mostly remembered by the play written by William Shakespeare. Thankfully, parts of that play are true. However, the play only covers his horrific death and the aftermath that occurred. This episode covers various parts of his life and the situation Rome was in before and during Caesar's participation. Various sources are used. Sources:1.

Sanjay Merchant introduces Palm Sunday by contrasting Jesus's humble "Triumphal Entry" into Jerusalem with the grand Roman triumphs of generals like Julius Caesar. While Roman triumphs were lavish, military parades celebrating conquest and power, Jesus enters on a donkey, fulfilling prophecy and displaying a radically different kind of kingship marked by humility and divine authority. The message challenges conventional ideas of greatness, showing that true triumph in God's kingdom looks nothing like worldly glory. #PalmSunday #JesusTheKing #HumbleTriumph #BiblicalProphecy #KingdomOfGod

The fall of the Roman Republic is one of the great stories in all of ancient history and it can still teach lessons relevant to every element of modern life. This telling of the Roman Republic's demise blends systems-based history, trends and forces, events like the Punic Wars and Spartacus' slave rebellion, and the sheer will of legendary historical figures like the Gracchi brothers, Gaius Marius, Sulla, Julius Caesar, Cleopatra, Mark Antony, Octavian, and more. Shedding light on wealth inequality, political and economic corruption, population shifts, the impact of war-both overseas and at home, political violence, questions over citizenship, economic populism, zero-sum politics, violation of political and social norms, a loss of faith in democracy, and more-this historical story has something for everyone. -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Thursday morning, the 27th of March, 2025, and this is your friend Angus Buchan with a Thought for Today. We start with Luke 1:3-4:"It seemed good to me also having had Perfect understanding of all things it seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write to you an orderly account, most excellent Theophilus, that you may know the certainty of those things in which you were instructed."Then we go to Hebrews 2:3: "How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him."Perfect understanding. Orderly account. Certainty. Our faith is not based on old wives' tales; our faith is not based on fables. A fable is a legend; it's a story that is not true, like Alice in Wonderland or Peter Pan. Like Narnia, they are stories, but they are not factual. Do you know there is more evidence that Jesus Christ walked on this earth than there is about Julius Caesar, the emperor of Rome? No one questions the existence of Julius Caesar, but many doubt the existence of Jesus Christ. We need to build our faith up. How, you might ask - by reading the Word of God, the Bible. Romans 10:17 says:"So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."Mums and Dads read the Bible to your children. Read the Bible to your workers. Read the Bible to your students, why because it is true! Have a wonderful day!Jesus bless you, and goodbye.
We cover the conquest of Jerusalem by Pompey, the rise of Julius Caesar, and the Battle of Actium.
This lecture discusses key ideas from the Renaissance-era philosopher, critic, and essayist Michel De Montaigne's work Essays, specifically his essay On Cato The Younger It focuses upon that Stoic statesman and philosopher, Cato, who fought in the Civil War against Julius Caesar and killed himself rather than accept Caesar's offered amnesty. While discussing him, Montaigne makes some important points about not judging the capacities of other people by reference to our own, or thinking that because our times are particularly badly off with respect to virtue, that all times and cultures are.

Hold onto your corsets and brace yourself for some historical spice, because today we're talking about Victorian nipple rings. Yes, you read that right. The prim and proper era of high collars, afternoon tea, and… pierced nipples? Turns out, the Victorians (and their French counterparts in the Belle Époque) were way freakier than we give them credit for. What's Inside This Episode?
Pickles. They're crunchy, tangy, and a staple in sandwiches, burgers, and snack plates worldwide. An pickling originated thousands of years ago, with evidence of cucumbers being pickled in the Tigris Valley as far back as 2030 BC, primarily as a method of food preservation. Throughout history, pickles have been enjoyed by various cultures, with notable figures like Cleopatra and Julius Caesar appreciating their flavor and perceived health benefits. This widespread appreciation helped spread pickling techniques across continents, adapting to local ingredients and tastes.In recent years science has shown that eating pickles are good for you and can increase your athletic performance in many ways.

*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements. If you want an ad-free experience, you can subscribe below underneath the show description.The Ides of March Blood Moon, which was accompanied by a Falcon 9 rocket launch, is a powerful omen. Blood Moons are symbolic of birth and death and the Ides of March remind us of Julius Caesar's assassination - the fall of a king - and his replacement by Octavian-August-Caesar who ushered in Pax Roman, or the Golden Age. The Falcon 9 rocket, surprisingly, has powerful connections to Julius as well: as a leader, he was compared by historians to the falcon, and as a strong pagan leader is considered one of the 9 worthies. The company behind the rocket is Musk's Space X and the organization that launched it is the same NASA that used the 2024 solar eclipse to perform an Egyptian ritual that they named after the sun devourer Apep. In the news we have seen Musk's other company, Tesla, undergo acts of vandalism and threats by extremists on the political left, thought this is a minority. The majority still keep their electric cars. On the other side, now the political right is buying these cars to support Musk, who wants to use AI to run the government. This comes amidst exposure that, according to the Economic Times, “All available Biden-signed documents were checked by The Oversight Project, which revealed that every signature, except the withdrawal from the 2024 presidential candidacy, was produced by autopen technology.” In other words, the exposure of machines doing all the work will lead to more machines doing more of the work - including using AI for military decisions, visa revocation, firings, and healthcare. Technocracy is the great reset - electric cars, regional unions, a cashless society, AI driven everything -, the great replacement of the republic which, unlike Rome, will be usurped not by the necessary evil of Augustus, but by programmed emperors that operate under the fallacy of computer-perfection. And perhaps that empire will expand, as Elon Musk prepares to send a starship to Mars by 2026, carrying the Optimus Robot, programmed with human knowledge from X. -FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKMAIN WEBSITECashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.

Tonight on Normal World, Dave Landau, 1/4 Black Garrett, and Angela dive into the latest headlines, where nothing is quite what it seems. From Emily Osmond's whirlwind divorce to other wild stories making waves this week. Gerard Michaels stops by, fresh from an experience that makes Spirit Airlines look first-class. The crew dives into Dave Landau's latest projects, including his upcoming comedy tour and his new book, "A Party of One: A Fuzzy Memoir." Roman Empire expert Jeremy Ryan Slate explores the fall of Rome, drawing connections to inflation, immigration, and shifting power—history that feels eerily relevant today. The conversation challenges the idea that Rome ever truly fell, examining how leadership changed and what that means for today's world. They also take a closer look at President Donald Trump's economic strategy, the impact of tariffs, and whether a financial shift could reshape America's future. Are we learning from history or doomed to repeat it? This episode of Normal World features Gerard Michaels and Jeremy Ryan Slate.

As we roar towards the Ides of March, it just makes sense to spend a little time with Rome's OG, Gaius Julius Caesar. But since it's also Women's History Month, we're taking stock of his life and times through his marriages, both the ones we're sure happened, the one we aren't sure happened - and of course, Cleopatra makes an appearance.

The Washington Roundtable speaks with Jeffrey Rosen, the president and C.E.O. of the National Constitution Center, a nonpartisan nonprofit, about how America's founders tried to tyrant-proof their constitutional system, how Donald Trump's whim-based decision-making resembles that of the dictator Julius Caesar, and what we can learn from the fall of the Roman Republic. Plus, how the Supreme Court is responding to the Trump Administration's broad claims of executive power.

How cruel was Caligula? How depraved was Tiberius? And how monstrous was Nero? The dark reputations of these emperors owe a great deal to the Roman writer Suetonius, whose 121 AD work Lives of the Caesars offered intimate portraits of 12 rulers of Rome – from Julius Caesar to Domitian. The popular historian and podcaster Tom Holland has just produced a new translation of the Lives and he speaks to Rob Attar about the profound influence of Suetonius' work – and whether it's an example of ancient fake news.
