Podcasts about Lusitania

CannCon and Chris Paul kick off Friday with what CannCon dubs Schrodinger's case, as a federal judge blocks the President's mail in ballot executive order yet again, roughly a week before the first ballots go out, in a ruling everyone expects to be appealed within days. They walk through the dizzying timeline of injunctions and reversals stretching back to April. From there they cover a USAID report finding more than a hundred UNRWA employees took part in the October 7th attacks, plus new sanctions avenues opening up against domestic extremist networks. The back half wanders into a genuinely interesting history detour on the Lusitania and what Woodrow Wilson knew, before closing with a Jessica Tarlov clip that has to be heard to be believed and a fresh Trump post it leads directly into. Plenty of banter and a good Friday send off.

CannCon and Ashe in America return to finish what they started, picking up the second half of Chapter 12 of The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin, and this time they actually get to the sinking of the Lusitania. The hosts walk through how the ship was quietly outfitted for war, the cargo controversy that followed it for decades, and the strange timeline of warnings and decisions that put it directly in a U boat's path. They dig into the competing explanations for why the ship went down in under eighteen minutes, from torpedoes to secondary explosions to what divers actually found in the wreck decades later. Expect some genuinely jaw dropping historical details, a healthy dose of suspicion about official reports, and the kind of ending that makes the whole setup from last week click into place.

CannCon and Ashe in America continue through The New Alchemy section of The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin, landing on Chapter 12: Sink the Lusitania. This week the hosts dig into JP Morgan's role financing England and France during World War I, and the far less patriotic reasons America may have ended up in that war at all. They trace the origin story most of us learned in school, the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, and challenge the idea that it was ever really the cause rather than just the spark. Expect a hard look at how loans, politics, and a certain infamous ship collided to shift American public opinion, along with the hosts' usual candid detours into modern health, big pharma, and everything in between. Heavy subject matter this week, handled with the show's signature mix of bluntness and heart.

On 7 May 1915, the passenger liner RMS Lusitania was torpedoed by the German submarine U-20 off the coast of County Cork. The enormous ship sank in just 18 minutes, killing over one thousands people.The sinking became one of the most controversial events of the First World War, provoking questions that remains the source of debate today. Why did the Lusitania sink so quickly? What caused the second explosion reported by survivors? How much ammunition and war material was the ship carrying? Did this cargo make the ship a legitimate military target or was the attack a crime against civilians?In this episode, I am joined by Shannon Forde, manager of the Lusitania Museum and Old Head Signal Tower in Kinsale. We discuss the history of the famous ocean liner, how it compared with the Titanic, the events of its final voyage and the experiences of those caught up in the disaster. We also examine the enduring controversies surrounding the sinking, from the Lusitania's cargo to the actions of the German submarine and the British authorities.Support the Irish History Podcast at patreon.com/irishpodcastThe Lusitania Museum & Old Head Signal Tower is open 10am – 5pm 7 days a week from March to October. https://www.oldheadofkinsale.comI will have more detail on the supporters tour mentioned in the episode later in the week!Sound by Kate DunleaMy Guest is Shannon Forde.

On this episode of The Option Block, Mark Longo is joined by Uncle Mike Tosaw of St. Charles Wealth Management and Andrew "The Rock Lobster" Giovinazzi of Option Pit. The crew kicks things off with a little Lusitania-inspired trivia before diving into a market caught between AI enthusiasm, geopolitical uncertainty, rising rates and the latest signals from the Fed. On the show: Why interest rates may still have room to move higher The increasingly tangled web of AI and NVIDIA financing What stubbornly elevated VVIX may be telling us A massive VIX options trade targeting September upside The latest options activity in NVIDIA, Tesla, Micron, SpaceX, Apple, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, Intel and AMD What the options market is pricing in for another busy week of retail earnings Unusual options activity in Kingsoft Cloud Holdings (KC) and Comstock (LODE) Using covered calls to help manage sequence-of-return risk in retirement A September VIX trade from the Rock Lobster What the crew is watching next in the S&P 500, bonds, rates and volatility Plus, the latest installment of the Option Block trivia battle and plenty more options talk along the way.

Neil Lanctot examines the May 7, 1915, sinking of the Lusitania by a German submarine, which killed over 100 Americans and sparked a massive crisis for American progressivism. Wilson's advisor, Colonel House, urged severing ties with Germany—a move that typically signaled war—but Wilson resisted, famously declaring that a nation could be "too proud to fight." This restraint infuriated TR, who was simultaneously fighting a high-stakes libel trial against Republican boss William Barnes. TR argued that losing national self-respect was worse than war, though he acknowledged the U.S. was militarily unprepared. Internal administration tension peaked when Secretary of State William Jennings Bryan, a staunch pacifist and ally of Addams, resigned in protest, believing Wilson's diplomatic notes to Germany were too provocative. During this turmoil, the newly married Edith Bolling Wilson began asserting her influence, successfully maneuvering to diminish Colonel House's role by sowing doubt about his loyalty in Wilson's mind.

Hannah Murray will start by looking at the bestseller lists on Amazon.co.uk and The Sunday Times, the oldest and most influential book sales chart in the UK, and seeing what new entries there are.Ed Needham is the Editor and Publisher of Strong Words Magazine. He joins us every month with some new book reviews, which this month includes Patrick Radden Keefe's London Falling.Allen Saxton has had time to pursue two of his passions - creative writing and medical education, since retiring as a general surgeon. He currently teaches at two medical schools in the US. Told with humour and empathy 'Training in Charity' captures what it meant to begin a life in medicine before computers and technology softened the edges - a time when skill was learnt by doing, compassion was earned at the bedside, and the making of a doctor was as raw and real as the city that held him. Allen's novel is set in the gritty heart of 1970s New Orleans. Patrick Hardy is qualified as a lawyer in England. Hong Kong and Guernsey. He also holds a personal trainer certification. His debut novel 'A Death in the Gym' is a gripping murder mystery that sees a personal trainer and part-time investigator wrapped up in a case that stirs up old memories....Rebecca Pells embraced her creative passions following careers in banking and the charitable sector. As a full-time artist, her work is collected across the globe. Her debut novel 'Absent Lives' is an exploration of memory, loss, and the quiet power of untold stories. It's inspired by true Lusitania family history. Linda Hartley studied dance and creative writing and then trained as a somatic movement therapist and psychotherapist. 'Angel Wing' is the follow-up to 'Broken Line', which together tell the story of three generations of women in one family covering the themes of love, loss, guilt, trauma and betrayal. It's a beautifully written evacuee tale about a vulnerable girl without parents, guidance or safety in a world torn apart by war. Elana Sabharwal is a Goldsmith's graduate with a master's degree in Screenwriting. With a global background spanning Italy, India and South Africa, Elana brings a unique perspective to her writing. Her novel 'Of Rice, Love and War' is set against the turmoil of the Vietnam War, where the line between loyalty and betrayal is blurred.

CONTENT WARNING - Some things related to life on a German U-boat are pretty gross. If you have a sensitive stomach, skip those parts of the episode.In this wild card episode Wyatt discusses what life was like on a German U-boat. Andrew discusses some of Roosevelt's life work before he was president, specifically his time as commissioner of the NYC police.References- Dead Wake: The Last Crossing of the Lusitania by Erik Larson- The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt by Edmund Morris

¿Y si las guerras más importantes del último siglo no fueron exactamente como nos las contaron? En este podcast repasamos cómo el ascenso de Alemania amenazó al Imperio Británico antes de la Primera Guerra Mundial, el uso de propaganda antialemana en Occidente y los episodios más controvertidos del siglo XX: el Lusitania, el USS Maine, el USS Liberty o el 11S. Además, analizamos cómo la lucha actual contra China, Irán y Rusia podría responder a la misma lógica geopolítica de hace más de 100 años: controlar Eurasia, las rutas comerciales y el petróleo mundial. ¿Estamos viendo repetirse la historia?

It's episode 69, hey hey, and the ladies are not going to mention it. Jackie shares the pet photo challenge submissions including her bird who tried to drink her reflection water, and Ashe tells the proper version of Caleb's eighth birthday in Manhattan involving the Intrepid, Spider-Man dropping web from the rafters, Dylan's Candy Bar, and one harrowing taxi near miss. Christy unpacks the British idiom getting the sack, complete with a 1525 Zach spelling and the mental image of a Victorian raccoon hauling its belongings out the door. Ashe walks through a packed week in history covering Alan Shepard going to suborbital space (allegedly), Bobby Sands and the idea that everyone has a part to play, the Roger Bannister sub-four-minute mile, the Channel Tunnel, the Chinese Exclusion Act and its modern TPS parallels, the Lusitania, VE Day, Coca-Cola's first glass at Jacobs Pharmacy, Olympic boycotts as psyop fuel, Ben Franklin's Join or Die cartoon as the first political meme, the end of the Civil War, the Schuman Declaration as the birth of globalism, the transcontinental railroad golden spike, and Deep Blue defeating Kasparov as the original AI fear porn rerun we are still being sold today. Plus Gart updates and why all roads lead to Mark Elias being upset.

Che cosa riesce a creare la scrittura? È una domanda impegnativa e dalle molte risposte. Ormai da alcuni anni “Alice” è presente a Chiasso Letteraria con un appuntamento in diretta che coinvolge due o più scrittori. Gli ospiti del nostro magazine letterario raccontano i loro romanzi, si soffermano su questioni formali e stilistiche, accettano di dipanare i fili della matassa narrativa, ma più di ogni altra cosa entrano in dialogo tra loro interrogandosi anche sulle motivazioni profonde dello scrivere. La scrittura è un processo creativo che si compie in solitaria, che richiede tenacia, dedizione, che dovrebbe sempre risponde ad un'urgenza autentica. Quest'anno, ai nostri microfoni e sul palco dello Spazio Officina, Dejan Atanackovic e Giorgio Falco dialogheranno partendo dai loro nuovi lavori: Lusitania e Di ora in ora. Libri molto diversi e, forse proprio per questo, adatti più di altri caratterizzati da temi, ritmi e atmosfere simili, a restituirci un ventaglio di proposte e suggerimenti ricco di rimandi alla nostra contemporaneità. Una contemporaneità da intendersi sia dal punto di vista sociale e politico sia da quello intimo e personale. Uno scambio ancora più fertile perché i due scrittori sono legati a doppio filo alla cultura visiva: l'arte per Atanackovic e la fotografia per Falco rappresentano un dispositivo critico di messa in discussione della realtà, della storia e perfino di cosa significhi essere un'artista. Poter proporre uno scambio tra due intellettuali, rappresentati della stessa generazione, cresciuti però in contesti lontani e dalle esperienze di vita e di impegno nate e sviluppatesi in Paesi divisi dalla storia e dalle ideologie, significa entrare nel vivo del dibattito delle idee.

In 1915, a German U-boat torpedoed the Lusitania, sinking it off the Irish coast, and killing over 1000 people. The attack devastated the American public, and justified America's entry into World War I. But rumors of a top-secret British navy operation, the ship's hidden second manifest, and a decades-long cover-up all led people to ask: Was the sinking an inside job?

Send us Fan MailIn this documentary, we are going to examine the events surrounding probably the most significant sinking of a ship by a U-boat during the entire conflict. It is an event that would have far reaching consequences for the war, and beyond which wouldn't be fully realised until a generation later. This is the story of the sinking of the RMS Lusitania and how it lit the path to war for the United States of America. Welcome to Wars of the World.Support the show

Barack Obama joins David Waldman and KITM in encouraging voting "Yes" for redistricting in Virginia. We would have had him on, but our Friday story backlog is a killer. Kristi Noem has been fired. Not for killing dogs, or goats, or people, but for telling the truth under oath. As far as Donald K. Trump knows, that's the only unpardonable offence. Noem had no reaction, as she had those surgically removed last year. Kristi and her young ward Corey Lewandowski will now be "employed" as agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, which might stand for Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation, but really stands for pretending to roll the ICE atrocities odometer back to zero by pretending that serial nosepicker Markwayne Mullin is now the guy in charge. ICE is building camps and closing camps and building and closing camps. Do ICE agents wear masks because they fear Covid? This is a common mistake for stupid people to make. Of course, the economy crashes and Americans die, but Trump isn't going to let any of that ruin this experience for him. Jesus Christ hired him to pull the greatest heist of all time, and Donald isn't about to let God and Vlad down while recreating the world in their image. Pete Hegseth is Trump's crusader thrill-killer, his fiery sword of bro-alpha-America laying low the scourge of children and the defenseless. Pete did a Lusitania on an unarmed Iranian ship, sinking it, and watching the crew drown, because we don't do stupid rules of engagement anymore... Democrats witness all this and say, "but..."? Dan Crenshaw is known to be a pretty touchy guy yet discovered that he was no match for a touchy billionaire. Robert Marling knocked Dan out for the bargain price of $675,000. Crenshaw loses the primary to Steve Toth, an unknown, who we at least know is not related to Lazlo Toth, or László Tóth, but possibly Laszlo Toth.

Neil Lanctot describes the sinking of the Lusitania forcing Wilson to navigate war demands, leading to William Jennings Bryan's resignation and the rise of Edith Galt's significant influence on the president. 3

La organización territorial de España es el resultado de un largo proceso histórico que refleja su diversidad cultural, política y geográfica. Desde la Antigüedad, la Península Ibérica fue un mosaico de pueblos prerromanos, pero sin unidad política. Roma impuso la primera estructura administrativa con provincias como la Tarraconense, la Bética y la Lusitania, una división que influyó en futuras fronteras. Tras la caída del Imperio Romano, los visigodos unificaron el territorio ubicando la Corte en Toledo y manteniendo a grandes rasgos la organización territorial romana, pero la invasión musulmana de 711 fragmentó la península, con un emirato que luego se transformó en califato en el sur y núcleos cristianos en el norte (Asturias y la Marca Hispánica). La Reconquista trajo reinos independientes como Castilla, León, Aragón, Navarra y los condados catalanes, que configuraron las bases de regiones actuales. Los Reyes Católicos unieron Aragón y Castilla por arriba, pero cada uno de los reinos siguió manteniendo sus instituciones y leyes propias. Felipe V tras la Guerra de Sucesión, trató de centralizar el poder con los Decretos de Nueva Planta pero Navarra y el País Vasco conservaron sus fueros. En el siglo XIX, la reforma de Javier de Burgos (1833) dividió España en 49 provincias (50 tras dividir Canarias en 1927), inspirada en modelos franceses y liberales. Buscaba uniformidad administrativa para poder gobernar de forma más racional. Esta estructura, basada en capitales provinciales y criterios puramente administrativos se mantuvo en todas las constituciones, incluyendo la de 1978, y sirvió de base para las autonomías. El concepto moderno de regiones surge en el siglo XIX, pero la autonomía regional, que tuvo un primer intento en los años de la segunda República, solo se consolidó tras la Transición. La Constitución de 1978 reconoció “nacionalidades y regiones”, creando 17 comunidades autónomas entre 1979 y 1983. Años más tarde, en 1995, las dos plazas de soberanía del norte de África (Ceuta y Melilla) se convirtieron en ciudades autónomas. Este modelo, ni federal ni unitario, equilibra centralización y descentralización y trata de adaptarse a la diversidad geográfica y cultural del país. · Canal de Telegram: https://t.me/lacontracronica · “Contra el pesimismo”… https://amzn.to/4m1RX2R · “Hispanos.

Los Reyes Católicos unieron Aragón y Castilla por arriba, pero cada uno de los reinos siguió manteniendo sus instituciones y leyes propias. Felipe V tras la Guerra de Sucesión, trató de centralizar el poder con los Decretos de Nueva Planta pero Navarra y el País Vasco conservaron sus fueros. En el siglo XIX, la reforma de Javier de Burgos (1833) dividió España en 49 provincias (50 tras dividir Canarias en 1927), inspirada en modelos franceses y liberales. Buscaba uniformidad administrativa para poder gobernar de forma más racional. Esta estructura, basada en capitales provinciales y criterios puramente administrativos se mantuvo en todas las constituciones, incluyendo la de 1978, y sirvió de base para las autonomías. El concepto moderno de regiones surge en el siglo XIX, pero la autonomía regional, que tuvo un primer intento en los años de la segunda República, solo se consolidó tras la Transición. La Constitución de 1978 reconoció “nacionalidades y regiones”, creando 17 comunidades autónomas entre 1979 y 1983. Años más tarde, en 1995, las dos plazas de soberanía del norte de África (Ceuta y Melilla) se convirtieron en ciudades autónomas. Este modelo, ni federal ni unitario, equilibra centralización y descentralización y trata de adaptarse a la diversidad geográfica y cultural del país. · Canal de Telegram: https://t.me/lacontracronica · “Contra el pesimismo”… https://amzn.to/4m1RX2R · “Hispanos.

Op 26 december 1991 schreef de toenmalige correspondent van de New York Times in Moskou, Serge Schmemann, een aangrijpend stuk over het einde van de Sovjetunie. Hij koos de vorm van een necrologie. Wat een vondst. ‘De Sovjet-staat’, zo luidde de eerste zin, ‘gedurende zijn korte maar tumultueuze geschiedenis gekenmerkt door grote verworvenheden en vreselijk lijden, is vandaag, na een lang en pijnlijk verval, gestorven. Hij was 74 jaar oud.’ Hopelijk is het allemaal minder dramatisch, maar in een groot deel van Europa heerst een vergelijkbaar sentiment over onze tijd: het einde van de schijnbaar in gietijzer gegoten alliantie met de Verenigde Staten. Al het gepraat over de dreiging van oorlog op het Europese continent, het aanleggen van noodpakketten, bezorgde ministers van Defensie en het groeiende besef dat de grote, strategische paraplu waaronder we sinds de Eerste Wereldoorlog konden schuilen wordt opgeklapt, markeert het afscheid van een tijdperk. Hoewel gemijmer zinloos is, moeten we ons wel afvragen of Amerika beseft wat het verliest, niet alleen historisch en cultureel, maar puur strategisch. Het land wilde niet meedoen aan de Eerste Wereldoorlog tot 1917, toen Duitse onderzeeërs het passagiersschip Lusitania tot zinken brachten. De Amerikanen dachten dat de Britten garant stonden voor de verdediging van de Atlantische Oceaan, maar toen de Lusitania zonk beseften ze dat de oorlog in Europa tot aan hun oostkust kon komen. In de Tweede Wereldoorlog deed zich iets vergelijkbaars voor. Onder druk van de isolationistische en pro-Duitse ‘America First’ beweging eind jaren ’30, kreeg president Roosevelt het Congres niet mee om te luisteren naar de smeekbedes van Winston Churchill om Groot-Brittannië te steunen. Tot 7 december 1941, toen Japan met de aanval op Pearl Harbor de VS de oorlog in sleurde. Ook de Pacific bood, net als de Atlantische Oceaan, geen garantie voor veiligheid. In de fragiele situatie in Oekraïne en de waarschuwingen over gevaar voor de rest van Europa zou Donald Trump de historische parallel moeten zien. Als Europa valt, is er alleen nog een oceaan, en die doorkruist Rusland permanent. De explosieve ontwikkeling van de Chinese krijgsmacht, met vliegdekschepen, jachtvliegtuigen en onderzeeërs, bedreigt de Amerikaanse westkust. Dat houden zelfs nieuwe Amerikaanse schepen van de Trump-klasse niet tegen. De uitdaging voor diplomaten zit ‘m niet in het bedelen of Trump alsjeblieft met ons mee blijft doen, en de beschermende paraplu niet helemaal opklapt, maar in het laten zien dat Europa – hoezeer Trump ook op ons neerkijkt – onmisbaar is voor de Amerikaanse veiligheid. De lessen van twee wereldoorlogen zijn overtuigend: Amerika heeft een primair belang: niet ons, of Oekraïne, maar zichzelf.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

El año 69 d.C. es uno de los más agitados y caóticos de la historia del imperio romano. En poco más de un año, cuatro hombres se hicieron con el trono tras la muerte de Nerón: Galba, Otón, Vitelio y Vespasiano. Este período demostró que, una vez desaparecido el prestigio de la dinastía julio-claudia, el Senado era ya un mero órgano decorativo y la dignidad imperial dependía exclusivamente de contar con el apoyo de las legiones. Nerón se suicidó el 9 de junio del año 68. Sin heredero, el vacío de poder desató una guerra civil. El primer beneficiario fue Servio Sulpicio Galba, gobernador de la Tarraconense. Hombre de linaje patricio y 73 años, fue reconocido por el Senado y la Guardia Pretoriana. Llegó a Roma en octubre de ese año, pero su gobierno fue un desastre desde el primer día: recortó gastos, se negó a pagar el donativo prometido a los pretorianos y adoptó como heredero a Lucio Calpurnio Pisón, un aristócrata sin carisma ni apoyos militares. Tres meses más tarde las legiones de Germania Superior e Inferior se sublevaron y proclamaron emperador a Aulo Vitelio. Cuando la noticia llegó a Roma los pretorianos asesinaron a Galba y a Pisón en pleno Foro. El Senado, aterrorizado, proclamó emperador a Marco Salvio Otón. Otón, antiguo compañero de juergas de Nerón y gobernador de Lusitania, tenía el apoyo del Pretorio y de parte del pueblo romano. Intentó negociar con Vitelio, que ya marchaba hacia Italia con sus legiones. La negociación fracasó. El 14 de abril del año 69 se libró la primera batalla de Bedriacum (cerca de Cremona). Las tropas de Otón fueron aplastadas. Al recibir la noticia, Otón se suicidó, pero no sin antes pronunciar una frase que ha pasado a la historia: “Es más justo que muera uno por todos, que todos por uno”. Había reinado 91 días. Vitelio entró en Roma en julio entre desfiles, banquetes y celebraciones. Su gobierno fue un espectáculo de despilfarro y crueldad: ejecuciones masivas de oficiales fieles a Otón, disolución de las cohortes pretorianas para sustituirlas por sus tropas germanas y un despilfarro que dejó exhausto el tesoro imperial. Entretanto, en Oriente, las legiones de Judea, Siria y Egipto proclamaron emperador a Tito Flavio Vespasiano, el general que se encargaba en esos momentos de la revuelta judía. Vespasiano controlaba los envíos de grano de Egipto y tenía el apoyo de su hijo Tito y del prefecto de Egipto, Tiberio Julio Alejandro. Las legiones del Danubio que estaban al mando de Marco Antonio Primo invadieron Italia en octubre. A finales de ese mes se libró la segunda batalla de Bedriacum y las tropas de Vitelio fueron aniquiladas. En diciembre, Antonio Primo entró en Roma. Vitelio intentó abdicar y esconderse, pero fue descubierto, arrastrado desnudo por las calles y arrojado al Tíber tras ser torturado. El día 21 de diciembre del año 69, el Senado proclamó a Vespasiano, que aún estaba en Alejandría. Con él comenzó la dinastía Flavia. Para hablar de este año tan importante en la historia de la Antigua Roma nos acompaña hoy Federico Romero, que ya pasó por aquí hace unos meses para hablarnos de aquellos bárbaros que se significaron en su defensa del imperio.

On May 7, 1915, nearly a year into the First World War, the British steamship RMS Lusitania was sunk by a German U-boat off the southern coast of Ireland. Over 1,100 people were killed, many of whom were civilians from the United States who were not participants in the war. Although the loss of life in the attack was great, the sinking of the Lusitania stands out due to its indirect role in encouraging the United States to enter the conflict.   Learn about the sinking of the Lusitania and its impact on World War I on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In the lead-up to Veterans Day, which also marks the end of World War I in 1918, we are discussing the history of the war. Today we discuss why the United States joined the war. Picture: Sinking of the Lusitania. Engraving by Norman Wilkinson, The Illustrated London News, May 15, 1915. P. 631.

¡Vótame en los Premios iVoox 2025! A partir de 1914, Alemania llevó la guerra al mar con una estrategia inédita: la campaña submarina. Sus U-Boote, silenciosos y letales, pusieron en jaque el comercio marítimo aliado, buscando asfixiar a Gran Bretaña cortando sus líneas de suministro. La guerra submarina sin restricciones cambió las reglas del combate naval y provocó tensiones internacionales, como la entrada de Estados Unidos en el conflicto tras el hundimiento del Lusitania. En este episodio analizamos cómo los U-Boote transformaron la guerra moderna, los dilemas éticos que plantearon y el legado que dejaron en la historia naval del siglo XX.

Were the Vanderbilts visionary aristocrats building a lasting legacy, or history's most spectacular example of how to lose an unfathomable fortune in three generations? In this episode of History's Greatest Idiots, we explore the family that controlled 10% of all money in circulation in America and turned it into absolutely nothing through the revolutionary strategy of building 250-room houses nobody needed and throwing $8 million parties to impress people who already hated them.This is the story of the Vanderbilt dynasty: from ruthless railroad tycoon to 120 descendants without a single millionaire among them in less than a century. Featuring marble palaces, forced marriages to British dukes, and enough champagne-fuelled bad decisions to sink the Lusitania. Oh wait, that happened too.What You'll Discover:How Cornelius "The Commodore" Vanderbilt built a $200 billion fortune (in relative economic terms) by being brilliant, ruthless, and too cheap to buy a new coatWhy his son William Henry was the last competent Vanderbilt, doubling the fortune before his descendants set it on fireThe $265 million "summer cottage" with 70 rooms that required 40 full-time servants (The Breakers in Newport)Alva Vanderbilt's $8 million costume ball that forced New York society to accept them (one guest came dressed as a working lightbulb)George Vanderbilt's 250-room Biltmore Estate that accidentally became a successful tourist attraction by losing so much moneyHow Consuelo Vanderbilt was literally sold to the Duke of Marlborough for $95 million and a fancy titleReginald Vanderbilt's masterclass in drinking and gambling away $400 million in just 23 yearsWhy Alfred Vanderbilt survived cancelling his Titanic ticket only to die on the Lusitania three years laterThe 1973 family reunion where 120 Vanderbilt descendants gathered and not one was a millionaireHow Anderson Cooper became the last wealthy Vanderbilt by doing something radical: getting a jobThe Mathematics of Disaster: The Commodore leaves $95 million to one son. That son splits it among eight children. Those eight split it among dozens of grandchildren. Each generation builds million-dollar mansions requiring hundreds of thousands in annual maintenance. None of them work. All of them spend like the money is infinite. Spoiler: it wasn't.The Gilded Age Arms Race: We explore how the Vanderbilts competed with the Astor's and other old money families by building increasingly absurd monuments to their wealth: Fifth Avenue châteaux that were demolished 40 years later because nobody could afford the property taxes, Newport "cottages" with indoor swimming pools and two-story libraries, and enough marble to build a small Italian village.Three Generations of Wealth Destruction:First Generation (The Commodore): Builds empire through ruthless business practices and penny-pinchingSecond Generation (William Henry's children): Maintains wealth while building increasingly expensive houses and establishing lavish lifestylesThird Generation: Drinks it, gambles it, and watches their houses get torn down because they can't afford the heating bills.⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/HistorysGreatestIdiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠Artist: Sarah Chey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.fiverr.com/sarahchey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Animation: Daniel Wilson⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/wilson_the_wilson/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music: Andrew Wilson⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/andrews_electric_sheep⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

At the outbreak of war in 1914, most still believed that the key sea battles would be fought above the waves. But beneath the surface, a revolution was beginning. Germany's U-boats, small, cramped but lethal, would soon challenge the mighty Royal Navy and the rules of war itself. From prize law to the sinking of the Lusitania, this episode charts the U-boat's rise - and the controversy it left in its wake.

Cette règle, vous le savez, est souvent associée aux scènes de naufrages maritimes, où elle est censée guider l'évacuation des passagers en donnant la priorité aux personnes perçues comme les plus vulnérables. Mais d'où vient vraiment cette règle ? Est-elle une tradition ancienne, une norme sociale… ou un mythe romantisé par la littérature et le cinéma ?Une origine bien précise : le naufrage du HMS Birkenhead (1852)La formule prend racine dans un événement réel : le naufrage du HMS Birkenhead, un navire militaire britannique, survenu le 26 février 1852 au large des côtes d'Afrique du Sud.Le navire transportait environ 640 personnes, dont des soldats et quelques femmes et enfants. Lorsqu'il heurta un rocher, les embarcations de sauvetage étaient en nombre insuffisant. Le commandant donna alors l'ordre de faire embarquer en priorité les femmes et les enfants, pendant que les soldats restaient au garde-à-vous sur le pont, sans paniquer.Grâce à cette discipline exceptionnelle, toutes les femmes et les enfants survécurent, tandis que près de 450 hommes périrent. Ce sacrifice héroïque inspira l'expression « the Birkenhead drill », qui désignait cette conduite de calme et de discipline face à la mort.Une règle sociale… plus qu'une loiContrairement à ce que l'on pourrait croire, il n'existe aucune loi maritime internationale imposant « femmes et enfants d'abord ». Il s'agit plutôt d'une norme morale et culturelle, valorisée par l'imaginaire victorien puis par la littérature et le cinéma, comme dans Titanic.Cependant, son application a été très inégale dans l'histoire. Par exemple :Lors du naufrage du Titanic en 1912, le capitaine ordonna effectivement de donner la priorité aux femmes et aux enfants. Résultat : 74 % des femmes mais seulement 20 % des hommes survécurent.À l'inverse, lors du naufrage du Lusitania en 1915, dans un contexte de panique totale, aucune règle de priorité ne fut respectée.Une construction culturelleCette règle renvoie à des valeurs paternalistes héritées du XIXe siècle : les femmes sont vues comme fragiles, les enfants comme innocents, et les hommes comme protecteurs. Elle a été largement romancée et idéalisée, surtout dans les récits anglophones. En réalité, lors de nombreuses catastrophes, c'est souvent l'instinct de survie qui domine, et la priorité aux plus vulnérables dépend davantage du capitaine, du contexte et du chaos que d'une règle universelle.En somme, « femmes et enfants d'abord » est une belle idée, parfois appliquée, parfois trahie, mais toujours chargée d'un poids symbolique fort, reflet des normes d'une époque… et des histoires qu'on aime se raconter face au drame.

Just about everybody knows the story. A supposedly unsinkable ship hit an iceberg and sank, proving the folly of humans. But there are many facts which are not widely known as well as prevalent myths which need to be debunked. Learn what really happened, what caused the disaster, and who were the heroes and who were the villains. 

In 1915, a German submarine torpedoed the passenger liner RMS Lusitania, killing nearly 1,200 people, including many Ohioans. We tell the story of the tragedy through the lives of people like Charles Frohman, a Sandusky native who coined the term "stars" for describing beloved actors, and Theodate Pope, a Cleveland woman who became one of the first licensed architects in the country.
