Description: Behind the ink of formal treaties lies the poignant reality of human collateral. In this episode, Ramjee Chandran details the emotional exchange that saw two of Tipu Sultan's young sons handed over as political hostages to guarantee a massive war indemnity. Uncover the behind-the-scenes political maneuvering by Mysorean vakeels to protect key heirs, the grand 21-gun procession to the British lines, and how Lord Cornwallis transformed a solemn surrender into a personal, career-defining moment of redemption following his loss at Yorktown. Key Details from the Script: Human Collateral as Guarantee: The preliminary peace articles required Tipu Sultan to yield two of his sons to the British until his three-crore-rupee indemnity (plus 30 lakh rupees in durbar expenses) was paid in full. The Diplomatic Gamesmanship: Tipu's envoys (vakeels Ghulam Ali Khan and Ali Reza Khan) artfully engineered the handover: Fateh Hyder (The Eldest): The vakeels claimed he was "obnoxious" (disliked) by Tipu. In reality, officers like Alexander Baillie noted he was an active 19-year-old military commander leading troops, making his capture an intolerable military loss. Abdul Khaliq (Middle Son): Claimed to be too sickly to leave the women's quarters; the British rejected this plea, and the 10-year-old was sent regardless. Muiz-ud-din (Youngest of the three): Framed as Tipu's "favourite" and heir apparent to project sincerity. Historians like Denys Forrest suspect the vakeels swapped Muiz-ud-din for Muhi-ud-din—Tipu's only fully legitimate son born of Ruqiya Banu Begum—fooling the British with the phonetic similarity of the names. The Grand Procession: On February 26, 1792, the two young princes (Abdul Khaliq, 10, and Muiz-ud-din, 8) departed Srirangapatna on silver howdahs atop elephants. Escorted by camel couriers, standard-bearers, 100 silver-speared pikemen, and sepoys, they were saluted by both the fortress guns and a 21-gun salute from the British camp. The Meeting with Cornwallis: Lord Cornwallis personally met the boys at his tent door, embracing them and taking each by the hand. Head vakeel Ghulam Ali declared that Cornwallis must now be their father. Cornwallis assured them of equal care to his own son, exchanging gifts of a gold watch for a Persian sword. Publicity, Medals, and Aftermath: News of the handover triggered massive public celebration in London. Matthew Boulton's Soho Mint struck a commemorative medal featuring Cornwallis with the Latin motto fas sit parcere hosti ("let it be right to spare the enemy"). Artist Robert Home sketched the famous scene, and Cornwallis was elevated from Earl to Marquess. Ghulam Ali Khan remained with the princes in Madras during their two-year captivity until Tipu fully paid the debt in March 1794. Historical Echoes & Cornwallis's Karma: This hostage event echoed theHoysala King Veera Ballala III, whose son Virupaksha was taken as a hostage to Delhi in 1311 and held for two years. For Cornwallis, receiving Tipu's sons and sword provided personal closure after his humiliating 1781 surrender at Yorktown during the American Revolution.

The Battle of the Little Bighorn didn't end when George Armstrong Custer fell. Four miles to the south, the surviving seven companies of the 7th Cavalry, under Major Marcus Reno and Captain Frederick Benteen, were pinned down on a barren hilltop and fighting for their lives. A battle that would result in two days of thirst, sniping, desperate charges, and over two dozen Medals of Honor. We'll also discuss Dr. Henry Porter's makeshift field hospital, the rescue by General Terry and Colonel Gibbon, and the burial of the dead. Then we dig into the reckoning: the Reno Court of Inquiry, Frederick Whittaker's crusade to blame Custer's subordinates, the surrenders of Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull, and the 1980 Supreme Court case and the billion-dollar settlement the Lakota still refuse to this day.   Wild West Quiz - https://wildwestquiz.com/   Check out the website! https://www.wildwestextra.com/   Email me! https://www.wildwestextra.com/contact/   Free Newsletter! https://wildwestjosh.substack.com/   Buy Me A Coffee!  https://buymeacoffee.com/wildwest   Join Patreon for ad-free bonus content! https://www.patreon.com/wildwestextra   Merch! https://wildwestextramerch.com/   Custer's Last Stand! https://www.wildwestextra.com/custers-last-stand-hero-or-fool/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Doug Soles just walked away from the most dominant program in the country, and he's not done building.The two-time NXN champion coach joins Dominic to reflect on 26 years of head coaching and his recent decision to step down at Herriman High School. Soles opens up about the toll of 12-hour days, his choice to leave teaching first, and why he's leaving his next move "wide open" rather than rushing into another job. He traces his evolution from a rookie coach in the desert heat of Palm Springs with just three athletes to building two national powerhouses, crediting the shift from copying others to developing his own philosophy as the real turning point.Much of the conversation centers on buy-in: how Soles convinces five-flat milers they're capable of greatness, why travel to big meets reframes how kids see the sport, and how he handles excuses, transfers, and kids who are "half in, half out." He's candid about losses that still haunt him, the 2009 state title he let slip away, and the lessons that shaped everything after. Soles also discusses coaching Jackson Spencer through an undefeated season and why he believes in earning success rather than handing out participation trophies.He closes with reflections on handling critics, the importance of fit over title, and passing the Herriman program to his successor, Josh Bugel, on his own terms. A thoughtful, occasionally funny, and deeply earned conversation with one of the most accomplished coaches in American distance running history.Tap into the Coach Doug Soles Special. If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!

Patrick K. O'Donnell, guest author, explains that following Blazer's capture, Harry Harrison Young took command of the Union's special forces assets under Phil Sheridan. Only 5'5" but "absolutely fearless," Young transformed the Jesse Scouts into a vital strategic asset. These scouts, often operating in Confederate uniforms, conducted suicide missions and used elaborate disguises—such as peddlers or Southern recruiting officers—to gather real-time intelligence. The hazards were so extreme that most Jesse Scouts did not survive the war, though the unit ultimately earned seven Medals of Honor. As Sheridan moved to join Grant at Petersburg, the scouts performed an epic mission: delivering messages to Grant by riding 100 miles through enemy territory with the orders wrapped in tin foil in their mouths. During the final campaign, the Jesse Scouts acted as Sheridan's "eyes," seizing critical bridges and providing the intelligence needed to find weak points in Lee's lines. They played a pivotal role at the Battle of Five Forks, where they discovered that Confederate leaders were distracted by a "shad bake" (fish luncheon) and failed to hear the opening of the battle due to an atmospheric anomaly. The scouts even used misinformation to direct retreating Confederates to the wrong locations and intercepted orders meant to supply Lee's starving army at Amelia Courthouse. By disrupting Lee's logistics and securing vital supply trains, the Jesse Scouts and Sheridan's cavalry effectively "sealed the coffin" for the Army of Northern Virginia. The Unvanquished (7)

The chaos level on today's episode somehow exceeded “Florida news headline” and entered full-blown county fair fever dream territory. The gang kicks things off by honoring local legend Steve Lewandowski with the first-ever Swamp Justice Medal of Freedom after his heroic moment at a Cardinals game. It's heartfelt, inspiring… and immediately derailed by improvised ceremonial music, fake government awards, and discussions about “elite Midwestern restraint.” Honestly? The Smithsonian should already be calling.Then things take a sharp left turn directly into the corn dog dimension when Rafe discovers that Reba McEntire is engaged — and absolutely does not take the news well. What follows is one of the most unhinged love monologues in recent show history involving disguises, wedding sabotage, miniature donkeys, emotional support corn dogs, and a Tennessee ranch showdown that somehow feels both illegal and deeply patriotic. Rex Lynn, if you're listening… maybe hire security.But wait. The internet got weird again. The crew dives headfirst into the disturbing trend of “ball maxing,” where dudes are apparently inflating themselves like carnival prizes in pursuit of alpha status. If you've ever wanted to hear grown adults discuss saline-filled testicles with the seriousness of a congressional hearing, congratulations: this funny podcast has arrived precisely for you.And because the universe clearly wasn't finished humiliating humanity, the gang uncovers reports of “Ozempic penis,” inspiring an all-time fake 1970s TV theme song for Inner Shaft — the private investigator whose confidence grew three inches overnight. There are disco vocals. There are inappropriate metaphors. There's at least one sentence that should probably be studied by scientists.Also included in today's disaster:Pointfest hype and backstage chaosFake medals for journalistic integrityCorn dog-based relationship counselingReba fan-fiction nobody asked forMen voluntarily becoming water balloonsThe greatest cassette tape “discovery” in show historyA level of stupidity that should qualify for federal fundingIf you love sarcastic humor, weird news, ridiculous commentary, celebrity chaos, and a morning show that routinely derails itself before 8am, congratulations — this is your new emotional support broadcast. The Rizzuto Show continues proving that no topic is too dumb to overcommit to.Whether you're here for the swamp justice, the corn dog seduction arc, or simply because hearing the phrase “Ozempic penis” in traffic makes your commute less depressing, this funny podcast has exactly what your damaged little heart needs.And remember: if a stranger ever hands your spouse a corn dog at a wedding… it may already be too late.Thanks for listening to another episode of the funny podcast proudly lowering the national IQ one segment at a time.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, Breht speaks with Mohanad Alsayed about his memoir Scars and Medals (Iskra Books), a powerful and deeply human account of growing up Palestinian under occupation, carrying exile across continents, and trying to make sense of memory, loss, family, and resistance. Through the story of his grandmother Jamila, his missing uncle Ghazi, and his own journey from Palestine to the United States, Alsayed offers an intimate portrait of how dispossession enters not only history and politics, but childhood, identity, and the inner life. The conversation explores occupation as a lived and psychological reality, the tension between assimilation and memory, the many meanings of resistance, and the current situation across West Asia - including how Palestinians view Iran. At once personal and collective, Scars and Medals opens onto the wider Palestinian experience with honesty, dignity, and emotional force.   Buy or get a FREE pdf of Scars and Medals here: https://www.iskrabooks.org/books/p/scars-and-medals   ----------------------------------------- Check out a great new resource for revolutionary education, Unlearning Capitalism: https://unlearn.capital/ Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio   Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio https://revleftradio.com/

This week we're revisiting one of the most beloved episodes in High Performance history — our conversation with Mel Marshall, former head coach to Adam Peaty and one of the most compelling thinkers on leadership, coaching and human development we've ever had on the show.Mel went to Athens in 2004 as the world's fastest swimmer in her event. She came home without a medal. From that moment, she built an entirely new philosophy — and went on to coach Adam Peaty to multiple Olympic gold medals from a club pool in Derby with dodgy lane ropes and no gym.In this episode, Mel talks about why people always come before performance. How she builds commitment culture. The art of giving feedback that actually changes behaviour. And the question she plans to ask Adam at the end of his career that has nothing to do with medals.One of the most complete conversations we've had on this show — and one that will stay with you long after it's finished.Heights
