There is so much myth and speculation around who Marie Antoinette was as a person, that it's really helpful to have historical texts from the era – like today's “Memoirs of Madame Campan” - of people that really knew her. But how reliable are her observations? ________________ If you enjoy the podcast and want to support what I'm doing, check out my Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/textory

Greg Jenner is joined in the eighteenth century by historian Professor Katherine Astbury and comedian Jen Brister to learn about French queen Marie Antoinette. Born an Austrian princess, Marie Antoinette went on to be the last queen of France before the Revolution and the abolition of the monarchy. She is famous now for saying "let them eat cake", for her love of fashion, and her supposedly extravagant spending at a time when ordinary people in France were going hungry. But how true are any of these stories, and where did these myths about her originate? In this episode, we look at Marie Antoinette's Austrian childhood and overbearing mother, her marriage to Louis XVI and time as queen of France, and the hatred directed at her by the revolutionaries. Along the way we take in her involvement in politics, her love of the theatre, and her possible Swedish sweetheart. If you're a fan of radicals and revolutionaries, maligned women from history and royal scandals, you'll love our episode on Marie Antoinette.If you want more from Jen Brister, check out our episodes on Emma of Normandy and Hernán Cortés and Malintzin.

Ignite the fight, America First warriors—@intheMatrixxx and @shadygrooove, the unyielding truth engines powering the red-pill revolution, unleash Season 7, Episode 189, “President Trump Warns Hamas; Newsom Posts Trump as Marie Antoinette, Why?” airing October 3, 2025, at 12:05 PM Eastern. As President Trump drops a no-nonsense 3-4 day ultimatum on Hamas to accept the bold 20-point Gaza peace blueprint—demanding ceasefire, hostage swaps, disarmament, and international oversight to crush the terror grip once and for all, or face a "very sad end" with full U.S. backing for Israel's resolve—these hosts dissect every angle, questioning if the mainstream spin hides deeper geopolitical maneuvers to secure lasting stability in the region. Then, they torch California Governor Gavin Newsom's sleazy AI-generated hit job, slapping Trump's face on Marie Antoinette to mock White House ballroom upgrades amid the shutdown chaos, screaming "No health care for you peasants, but a ballroom for the queen!"—a desperate deflection from his own crumbling state, as @intheMatrixxx and @shadygrooove expose the leftist hypocrisy and why this desperate smear reeks of elite panic over Trump's unfiltered America First agenda. Premium subscribers gear up for the second hour's explosive deep dive, reviewing the tangled legacy of Marie Antoinette de Lorraine d'Autriche (Hapsburg), peeling back historical layers of royal intrigue and power plays that echo today's establishment games. With razor-sharp analysis, live intel reactions, and that signature wit slicing through the fog, this is your frontline against the narrative machine—because the truth is learned, never told, and the Constitution is your weapon.

Sean and Amanda return to continue their yearlong project of listing the 25 best movies of the 21st century so far. Today, they discuss Sofia Coppola's ‘Marie Antoinette,' one of the greatest blank checks this century, starring Kirsten Dunst. They explain why this was the official Sofia Coppola selection for the list, especially over ‘Lost in Translation'; highlight the specific decision to not include Antoinette's infamous beheading; and discuss why this is a quintessential Kirsten Dunst performance.

On a warm, overcast summer's day of 1901, two English school mistresses strolled through the gardens of Versailles, unaware they were about to step into a defining moment in their lives. One minute in the present and the next in the past, Charlotte Anne Moberly and Eleanor Jourdain claimed to have crossed into a spectral vision of the court of Marie Antoinette. What began as a genteel outing quickly turned uncanny, with silent figures, oppressive stillness, and an inexplicable sense of dread creeping over their heads. Was it imagination, delusion, a ghostly breach in reality or simply a fancy dress party run amok?SOURCES Morison, Elizabeth & Lamont, Frances & (1913) The Adventure. Macmillan & Co. LTD. London, UK.

TL;DR: In this raw, no-BS breakdown, Connor MacIvor (ex-LAPD, Realtor CALDRE 01238257, AI investigator) exposes the massive water thirst of AI data centers—up to 12M gallons/day per gigawatt facility. From Marie Antoinette analogies to WUE metrics, cooling tech (open vs. closed loops, immersion), city water comparisons, salt water hurdles, and game-changers like room temperature superconductors. Practical fixes for businesses, families, and real estate pros to demand transparency and efficiency before it's a crisis. As a Gen X'er who's lost 135lbs via fasting and built AI systems, I cut through the hype—AI can save us, but not if it dries us out first.Dive into the hidden water crisis powering the AI boom. History's Marie Antoinette said "let them eat cake" to the starving—today, it's like leaders saying "let them drink Diet Coke" while data centers guzzle millions of gallons for cooling. This video unpacks Water Usage Effectiveness (WUE): total gallons used divided by kWh of server energy. Lower WUE means smarter water use. A 1GW center (1M kW) over 24 hours? That's 24M kWh—at 1.9 gallons/kWh, 45.6M gallons/day (high end). Efficient designs drop to 0.7 gallons/kWh, around 16.8M gallons/day.We compare to cities: 12M gallons/day is 2.8% of LA's 426M, 1% of NYC's 1.1B, 4-6% of Phoenix's 200-300M, a huge chunk of SF's tens of millions. Scaling to 10GW? 120M gallons/day. 1TW? 12B gallons—rivaling entire regions. But is the water "lost"? Mostly evaporates, potentially recyclable via clouds, but local impact matters in drought zones.Cooling methods decoded: Open systems (cooling towers) spray and evaporate—water-heavy. Closed loops recirculate with radiators—low water. Immersion submerges servers in non-evaporative fluid—near zero water. Cost trade-off: Cheap = water-inefficient; expensive = efficient. Salt water? Abundant but corrosive, fouling-prone, pricey to filter, with discharge rules—hybrids exist but tough.Future hope: Room temperature superconductors carry electricity zero-resistance at ambient temps—no waste heat, slashing cooling needs. But rollout challenges: Patent wars, retrofit costs, like curing a disease but losing pharma profits. Power side: Fossil fuels quick, nuclear cleaner but slow—Elon-style speed needed.Silence from operators on WUE? Push for reporting, mandate efficient cooling (closed/immersion/hybrids), recycled water, superconductor R&D. As someone who's patrolled LAPD streets, sold Santa Clarita homes, and adopted AI early, I'm telling it straight: We solve this with transparency, not bans.

Dans l'Europe du XVIIIᵉ siècle, un nom suscite fascination et crainte : Cagliostro. Derrière ce personnage aux mille visages se cache Giuseppe Balsamo, né à Palerme en 1743. Aventurier, escroc, guérisseur autoproclamé, alchimiste et occultiste, il devient l'une des figures les plus énigmatiques de son temps.Cagliostro se rend célèbre d'abord par son talent à jouer des apparences. Doté d'un charisme certain et d'un verbe flamboyant, il parcourt l'Europe en se présentant comme comte, mage ou médecin. À Londres, à Strasbourg, à Varsovie ou encore à Saint-Pétersbourg, il attire curieux et puissants grâce à ses promesses de guérison miraculeuse, ses séances de magnétisme et ses expériences d'alchimie. Ses remèdes, parfois efficaces, souvent mystérieux, lui donnent une réputation de thaumaturge.Mais ce n'est pas tout. Cagliostro se rapproche des loges maçonniques et fonde son propre rite, la « maçonnerie égyptienne », où il mêle symbolisme, rites initiatiques et pratiques occultes. Dans une Europe avide d'ésotérisme et de secrets, il séduit de nombreux adeptes, renforçant son aura de prophète moderne.Sa célébrité atteint cependant son apogée à Paris, à la fin des années 1780, lors de la fameuse affaire du collier de la reine. Cette escroquerie retentissante, qui éclabousse Marie-Antoinette, alimente les rumeurs et la haine contre la monarchie. Bien que son rôle réel soit resté mineur, le nom de Cagliostro est associé à l'intrigue. Emprisonné à la Bastille puis finalement acquitté, il en sort auréolé d'une réputation sulfureuse. L'opinion publique voit en lui soit un génie des arcanes, soit un charlatan dangereux.Sa fin est moins glorieuse. De retour à Rome, il est arrêté par l'Inquisition en 1789, accusé d'hérésie et de pratiques occultes. Condamné à la prison à vie, il meurt en 1795 dans la forteresse de San Leo.Pourquoi Cagliostro reste-t-il célèbre ? Parce qu'il incarne à lui seul les ambiguïtés de son siècle : entre foi dans les sciences nouvelles et fascination pour l'occultisme, entre rationalité des Lumières et goût pour le mystère. Il symbolise aussi l'Europe d'avant la Révolution française, marquée par la crédulité, la soif de merveilleux et la peur des complots.De Giuseppe Balsamo à Cagliostro, le personnage a inspiré d'innombrables récits, de la littérature romantique aux études historiques. Charmeur, imposteur, guérisseur, mystique… il demeure une énigme vivante, et c'est bien ce qui explique sa célébrité durable. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.
Journalist Mary McCarthy has been avoiding motorways for years, even planning her life around how to dodge them. She tells Kylie Pentelow how she discovered it's a far more common problem than you might think, especially among women in mid-life.England are through to the Rugby World Cup final. They face Canada next Saturday but who will we see lift the trophy? Former player Kat Merchant gives her view.Who is Erika Kirk? Kylie speaks to Anne McElvoy, executive editor at Politico and host of the Sam and Anne political podcast, about the wife of Charlie Kirk, American activist and influencer, who was shot dead on 10 September. Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Suzan-Lori Parks discusses her new adaptation of The Harder They Come, based on the classic 1972 film whose legendary soundtrack brought reggae to the world. She joins Kylie to explain her process for adapting classic stories and how she rewrote the rules for language and structure in theatre.The UK's first ever exhibition dedicated to the life of the French Queen Marie Antoinette has just opened at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Marie Antoinette Style explores the lasting influence of the fashionable icon, showcasing more than 250 objects, some of which have never been seen outside of Versailles. So, who was this ill-fated queen and how does her style still resonate with us today?
The last Marie Antoinette episode ended with how Marie Antoinette herself experienced the weird drama of The Affair of the Necklace. It makes sense to revisit this classic episode about Jeanne de la Motte and History's Ugliest Necklace, now that we all know more about the context of the heist.

When a mother heard her own voice from five hours earlier coming through her baby monitor, she realized she was witnessing something that shouldn't be possible—a tear in time itself. What would you do if you walked into a movie theater and suddenly jumped three hours forward, or if your car transported 20 miles in an instant to escape a traffic stop? A Victorian man appears in 1950s Times Square, two women slip back to Marie Antoinette's era, and a father and son lose an entire day in five minutes. These people swear they've experienced time slips, dimensional rifts, and impossible jumps through time—and their stories might make you question reality itself.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: Time travel, time slips, lost time, traveling to other dimensions and realities.

durée : 00:10:58 - En 1789, les Etats Généraux ont-ils déclenché la Révolution française ? 3/5 : 5 mai 1789, l'ouverture des Etats Généraux. - par : Stéphanie Duncan - Dans l'épisode précédent, nous avons vu comment les Français, dans les cahiers de doléances, expriment leurs difficultés, mais aussi leurs aspirations à une société nouvelle, plus libre et plus égalitaire. Arrive enfin l'ouverture des Etats Généraux. Il y a foule à Versailles le 5 mai 1789 pour assister sous un soleil radieux à l'ouverture des Etats Généraux. La mise en scène de cette cérémonie très codifiée est grandiose.Un faste qui peut surprendre alors que le peuple a faim, les révoltes grondent et que les caisses de l'Etat sont vides. Les hérauts du roi, accompagnés de trompettes et timbales, qui annoncent l'événement dans toute la ville… L'arrivée de Louis XVI dans un carrosse tiré par huit magnifiques chevaux, suivie de celle de la reine Marie-Antoinette, des princes et des princesses de sang.. Le roi en habit et manteau de drap d'or, porte sur son chapeau Le Régent, le plus gros diamant de l'époque. La reine est vêtue d'une robe d'or et d'argent. La procession des 1177 députés qui, à pied, deux par deux, un cierge doré à la main, se dirigent vers la salle des Menus plaisirs du roi qui a été spécialement aménagée pour accueillir pendant plusieurs semaines les Etats Généraux.

We're in our Marie Antoinette era, and you can't understand her story without knowing about her mother, Empress Maria Theresa! Because Maria Theresa is largely responsible for what happened to Marie Antoinette! Because she was not a good mother! But what Maria Theresa was skilled at was ruling over a truly perplexing number of territories. All the most impressive when you realize Maria Theresa got zero training and had to learn it all on the job (while in the midst of constant wars).

Versailles, 15.8.1785: Kardinal de Rohan wird verhaftet - wegen eines Betrugs um ein Collier von unfassbarem Wert. Ein Vorspiel zur Französischen Revolution. Von Anja Reinhardt.

Et pourtant le destin s'est chargé de les rapprocher à Versailles puis sous la lame de la guillotine… et malgré ces épreuves communes, elles se sont haïes. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Note: there is a slight audio issue when the interview begins, and it clears up by 3:59. Our editor did her best to fix it, sorry for the inconvenience! We're getting into the Marie Antoinette of it all! From today and until we're done, every week will be a Marie Antoinette event! Marie Antoinette's appearance was a big part of her reputation (good... then less good) and Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun was her Law Roach in that respect, helping craft an image for the people of France to recognize. And Elisabeth's life was tumultuous and fascinating as well! We're joined by author Jordana Pomeroy, art history expert and author of the new book Daring: The Life and Art of Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun to discuss the life of this artist.

Professor Suzannah Lipscomb is joined by Professor Jan Clarke to explore the life, legend, and legacy of Jean-Baptiste Poquelin — better known as Molière. From his audacious rejection of bourgeois expectations to his controversial plays that rattled the Catholic Church and delighted the King, Molière's story is as theatrical as his work. So what can be learned about gender, religion, power, and performance in Louis XIV's France through Molière's comedies?Together, Suzannah and Jan unravel the myth from the man and discover how Molière's biting satire, his savvy court politics, and his deep understanding of human nature made him a foundational figure in French literature and European theatre.MORE:Louis XIV and his Mistresseshttps://open.spotify.com/episode/2bvIaoji5oM65WbU5bFESwMarie Antoinettehttps://open.spotify.com/episode/69l3JrCvivIuKI5pmQLrYbPresented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.

The last Queen of France before the French Revolution, Marie Antoinette is best known today for her extravagant lifestyle and controversial legacy. Initially admired for her grace and charm, as revolutionary fervour gripped her adopted homeland, she became a symbol of royal excess, and a lightning rod for public resentment. But did she truly deserve her reputation of vain indifference? To what extent did misogyny and xenophobia shape her downfall? And did she ever utter those infamous words, ‘Let them eat cake'? This is a Short History Of Marie Antoinette. A Nosier Production. Hosted by John Hopkins. With thanks to Laura O'Brien, Associate Professor at Northumbria University, and author of The Republican Line: Caricature and French Republican Identity, 1830-52.
