Podcasts about Monarchy

In this episode of Hawk Podcasts, we dive headfirst into the bizarre and disturbing world of Curtis Yarvin, a.k.a. Mencius Moldbug—a man whose anti-democracy, neo-reactionary ideology is beloved by Silicon Valley elites like Peter Thiel, Mark Andreessen, and even JD Vance.Yarvin wants to replace democracy with a CEO-style monarchy. Yes, really. No elections, no opposition, just top-down autocratic control led by billionaires. We explore his connections to the Trump world, his shockingly racist writings, and his role in inspiring Project 2025.Along the way, we call out his bizarre terminology—“SovCorps,” “Patchwork Sovereignty,” and his casual praise for slavery as a “private welfare” solution. All from a man who claims he's not a white nationalist... even though he had to write essays explaining why.This is Part 1 of our Yarvin takedown. We'll laugh, we'll rage, we'll realign our chakras—because it's that wild.

#0185 The “Right” Has Lost Its Way, What Is The Right and Left Divide? The Origins of the Right and Left May Surprise You Historical Origins of the left and right wings:https://time.com/5673239/left-right-politics-origins/ Remember, the French Revolution was secularist and much of the desired end of the revolution was a secular utopia that ended in tyranny. There were no “good guys” in the French Revolution, the corrupt Monarchy, supported by the Impotent Church, vs the godless Secularists who murdered their way into a dictatorship that threatened to take over the World. But the “Right” has really stuck as a term for those who align with the Biblical Traditional values, whether in name or in form only. Ideological difference for Alt Right and Alt Left in Europe (Both were far Left for American Politics, look at the policies) What Has The Right Become? With all of that foundation laid, what has become of the “Right” in America? We've fought the Civil War and Civil Rights Battle, but what are we doing now? What are we known for? https://x.com/scrowder/status/1918342202356297872?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1918342202356297872%7Ctwgr%5E123b7ac32c0093c9618587f70adfea668e50cedf%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fweb.groupme.com%2Fsignin She was filmed by this fellow:https://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/us-news/who-is-sharmake-beyle-omar-rochester-man-being-linked-to-shiloh-hendricks-racial-slur-video-101746219721059.html Now this is all in context to the Austin Metcalf story and the money raised for the murderer: https://nypost.com/2025/04/30/us-news/over-500k-raised-for-karmelo-anthonys-after-alleged-stabbing/ https://x.com/TowerGangToad/status/1918700512548888800 Popular conservatives have explained this as “black fatigue”.

The New York Times asks: Can King Charles heal the fractured Royal Family before it's too late? In this wide-ranging episode, we explore that question and more — from William's growing public role and lingering “work-shy” reputation to the soaring cost of the monarchy, now £132 million a year. We examine Jeremy Clarkson's improbable return to royal favor, new claims that the William-Harry relationship is “fully broken,” and fresh criticism of Prince Harry's security choices following a solo trip to war-torn Ukraine.  Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Cyrus' exemplary leadership forged a patchwork of ethnicities into an empire that founded Persian rule in the Middle East, Professor Lynette Mitchell explains. Cyrus the Great (or the Elder) is known to many through the Cyrus Cylinder exhibit preserved in the British Museum, which tells us that he was chosen by God for his special virtues to become ‘king of the four corners of the world'.[1]  Indeed, he created a Persian empire that extended from the Greek communities of Asia Minor to the marches of India.  Ever since, virtues of a great strategic leader have been attributed to him, including by Xenophon who, as a Greek, might have been expected to be hostile to Cyrus' expansion. Instead, Xenophon took him as a model for the ideal leader in war and peace. Even today, the stories of his leadership are revered in management literature. But does the reality justify the acclaim? Professor Lynette Mitchell of the University of Exeter has discovered her interest in the life and achievements of Cyrus from her earlier research on Greek culture and customs, on which she has published widely. Her book, Cyrus the Great: A Biography of Kingship, was published by Routledge in 2023. [1] Irving Finkel (ed.): The Cyrus Cylinder: The King of Persia's Proclamation from Ancient Babylon.

In episode 119 astrologers Kristina Martin and Tara Redfield visit Royalty and take on the requested 73-year long marriage between Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.    We start with Queen Elizabeth's natal chart and see a hard-worn and hard-earned Capricorn rising. Coupled with a Saturn in Scorpio exact on her Midheaven. Power, duty, and public responsibility was always going to be part of her story. The longest ruling monarch in British history of course had a persevering Taurus Sun, which also described her wealth, opulence, and connection to the physical world and nature. Complete with a regal Leo Moon, royalty was in her blood.    Next, we look at Prince Philip's natal chart and see a charismatic and attention attracting Leo rising, but with the Moon also present, he was more guarded and protective. We also see a cheeky Gemini Sun that lives to lighten the mood but, with an exact square from Saturn, his  service to the Monarchy likely felt heavy.    Their synastry unveils a profound connection: a Moon-Neptune conjunction fostered emotional idealism, while a Mars trine Mars ensured a strong working partnership. Yet, Mercury-Pluto aspects hint at private power struggles and withheld communication. Did these tensions challenge their legendary longevity, or did their Venus-Saturn opposition cement their commitment? Tune in to uncover the astrological secrets of the British monarchy's most enduring love story.   Book a Reading with us!

During the past few weeks, there have been ongoing demonstrations in Nepal, some by pro-monarchists and some by those who oppose them. Whilst the major political parties have denounced protests, a section of Nepalis are in support of the monarchy's restoration. In our continued efforts to bring you regular reports, analyses, and diverse perspectives about the latest developments, in this podcast episode, our Nepal correspondent Prayas Dulal speaks to Bhadra Prasad Nepal, popularly known as Swagat Nepal, who is the spokesperson for the Joint Movement Mobilisation Committee for the Restoration of Monarchy.

Send us a textIn this second episode of a three part series, my favorite cohost Ellen and I survey the development of the papacy from the eighth through the early eleventh century. Among the topics we discuss are who and what the Merovingian and Carolingian dynasties of Francia were; Pope Zacharias' legitimization of Pepin the Short's deposition of a puppet Merovingian king and his elevation to the throne; the "donation of Pepin" that created the papal states; the "Donation of Constantine," forged in the papal chancery to justify the donation of Pepin; the partnership between Charlemagne and the papacy in reforming the Western Church; Pope Leo III's coronation of Charlemagne as Emperor of the Romans on Christmas Day, 800; and how the papacy was reduced once again to being the local bishops of Rome under the control of the Roman aristocracy in the tenth century after the collapse of the Carolingian empire. This is the period that historians see as the nadir of the institution that featured some memorably bad popes, though we conclude with a few good ones under the Ottonian emperors.This episode includes audio snippets Musician Ernst Stolz playing the pilgrims' song,  "O Roma nobilis" on tenor vielle, recorder and gemshorn.

This week, I'm welcoming fellow substacker and Tolkien nerd, Charles McBride, whose essay 'Shire Anarchy' caught my eye in the cultural curiosity that is the substack notes app. We're diving into the political imagination behind Middle-Earth – a world where having a king is perfectly fine, as long as he's quite far away or, better yet, long dead. From childhood obsessions with Tolkien to the strange bedfellows his work creates in modern fandom, Charles and I explore what it means when the villain of the story isn't a particular people, but the very desire for total control. How did this Franco-supporting Catholic writer end up crafting one of the most compelling visions of localism and self-governance in modern literature? And what might the hobbits teach us about freedom in an age of empire? "I think Shire anarchy is best described in a sentence I wrote in the piece, where I said that all the affairs of hobbits are organized under the assumption that having a king was basically a good idea, so long as he was quite far away, or better yet, long dead. And I think that that kind of cuts to the heart of what this concept of Shire anarchy is. You have a society that holds a reverence for the past. And they believe that their system of political and social organization is derived from something authoritative in their deep, distant past." Show Notes Charles's amazing essay, Shire Anarchy.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports a US scholar in Thailand is jailed pending a trial on charges of insulting the monarchy.

In this episode, Dr. Yael Ziegler shares her thoughtful and layered approach to the study of Tanakh. Known for her deep literary readings and her commitment to both peshat and the broader interpretive tradition, she explains how elements like structure, repetition, and intertextuality shape her analysis of the biblical text. We explore her perspective on Midrash—not as a rewriting of the narrative, but as a sophisticated form of interpretation. Hazal, she explains, were keen readers of both peshat and derash, and even midrashim that appear far from the plain meaning often reflect a deep sensitivity to language, themes, and textual echoes found elsewhere in Tanakh. These interpretive moves open up new layers of meaning while remaining anchored in the biblical text. Dr. Ziegler illustrates this approach through striking examples involving Rachel and Leah, Moshe, Eliyahu, and more. She also reflects on the role of classical commentators like Rashi, Ibn Ezra, Radak, and Ramban, pointing out that these thinkers were highly attuned literary readers—even without the benefit of the modern tools we rely on today. Their insights continue to offer profound guidance in how we read and engage with Tanakh. Toward the end of the episode, Dr. Ziegler briefly touches on her book Ruth: From Alienation to Monarchy, and how it exemplifies her broader methodology: combining rigorous textual analysis with a deep respect for tradition. This conversation offers a window into a kind of Tanakh study that is both intellectually grounded and deeply rooted in the interpretive legacy of our tradition.---*This episode is dedicated to the refua shelema of our dear friend Yaakov ben Haya Sarah Malakh and to the neshama of Meir ben Moshe a'h — Abdolrahim Ilian, the late father of our dear friend, Rod Ilian. ---• Bio: Dr. Yael Ziegler is the Rosh Batei Midrash and Academic Director of Matan and an Assistant Professor in Tanakh at Herzog College.

Send us a textIn this first episode of a three part series, my favorite cohost Ellen and I survey the development of the papacy over its first seven centuries. I have to confess that along the way I got somewhat off topic talking about the Roman persecution of the Christians. But it is an interesting subject in itself and worth exploring, and as 31 of the first 32 popes are venerated as martyrs--some with more reason than others--it seems relevant to a discussion of the first centuries of the papacy. In this episode Ellen and I also talk about Christological disputes that divided the early Church, the position of the bishop of Rome vis-à-vis other bishops, and the papacy's relationship with the Emperor Constantine and his successors. That's my way of saying that it turned out longer than I expected. But I hope that you'll listen and enjoy it.This episode includes musician Ernst Stolz playing the pilgrims' song,  "O Roma nobilis" on tenor vielle, recorder and gemshorn.

Recently, Donald Trump had a surprisingly warm reaction to the news that Britain's King Charles would extend a “secret offer” for the United States to join the British Commonwealth, something that the Founding Fathers fought and died to exit nearly 250 years ago. It would represent the clandestine moves by the Monarchy to solidify the kingdom for the reign of the Rex Orbis and is very symbolic for rolling out of the eschaton or the establishment of the Golden Age. Furthermore, with Pope Francis back in the picture, we are beginning to see that the revived Imperial Cult wishes to create an all-encompassing reset in the major religions as well. Tonight on Ground Zero (7-10 pm, pacific time on groundzeroplus.com), Clyde Lewis talks with prophecy researcher and author, Tim Cohen about PAX ANTICHISTI - BEWARE THE SATANIC MILLS. #GroundZeroPlus #ClydeLewis #SatanicMills #AntiChrist #ImperialCult

In one of the most bizarre headlines of the year, multiple British media outlets report that King Charles is preparing a secret offer to President Donald Trump: associate membership for the U.S. in the Commonwealth. Trump has reportedly expressed openness to the proposal, calling it a symbol of his admiration for Britain and the Royal Family. As wild as it sounds, this story isn't satire—it's real. Meanwhile, tensions continue to rise globally, from mounting chaos at Heathrow Airport to secret Pentagon briefings with Elon Musk and talks of dividing Ukraine.Rick Wiles, Doc Burkhart.

Bible Study: Jeremiah 17:5-10 – The verb here for “trust” means “to rely on”. This may seem harsh but this is good advice. Jesus did not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people in John 2. To expect from a human being only what you can get from God is idolatry. You can trust human beings to be human but not God. (10:24) Luke 16:19-31 – This is a joke, this is funny. Who is Jesus talking about, he is talking about the high priest Caiaphas who dressed in purple linens. The high priests were supposed to be descendants of Zadok, but the Maccabees coopted the Monarchy and High Priesthood to which they had no right. Jesus is talking about the Pharisees and he is telling a story of a Sadducee in Hell. Isn’t it curious that Jesus calls his poor man Lazarus? Fr. Simon talks about how Jesus is using humor here talk about the Sadducees. (16:29) Letters: Anonymous – Why do priests have to wear a stole while hearing Confession? (24:02) Greg – What do we do when it is very hard to forgive someone and what is the prayer that you say to help with this? When you find that you cannot forgive someone you give permission to God to forgive them. (30:10) Word of the Day: "Compadre" (34:18) Phones: Lee- Today is the feast of St. Hubert of Derwenwater (38:48) Marsha - I go to daily Mass, pray the Rosary and the Chaplet, saying the apostle Creed 3 times in the day, seems to be not necessary. What are your thoughts? (40:05) Liz - Say you don't get to Mass on Sunday, but you watch it on TV. Is it still a sin? (42:50) Mike - In Revelation, why does it says that we shouldn't have images of heaven or hell in our homes? (46:21)

Former King Gyanendra Shah's supporters see him as a ray of hope. They believe he can bring back political stability to the country, which has remained a distant dream for 17 years.----more----https://theprint.in/opinion/why-gyanendras-return-sparked-monarchy-chatter-nepal/2551561/

As the disposed King Gyanendra Shah returned from the tourist city of Pokhara to the Nepali capital Kathmandu last week, thousands of Nepali people were seen in the streets in his support. However, one journalist says the whole act is motivated by the idea that some things can be achieved by creating chaos. Nepal correspondent Prayas Dulal spoke to journalist Durga Khanal about the chances of the monarchy being restored in the Himalayan state. - आइतबार, ९ मार्चमा पोखराबाट काठमाण्डू फर्केका ज्ञानेन्द्र शाहलाई त्रिभुवन विमानस्थलमा राजावादी दल तथा समर्थकहरूले स्वागत गरेका थिए। सोसल मिडियामा मात्र नभई मूलधारका सञ्चार माध्यमहरूमा पनि विभिन्न कोणबाट टिका-टिप्पणी एवम् चर्चाहरू भएका छन्। लामो समयदेखि नेपालको राजनीतिका विषयमा कलम चलाउँदै आएका पत्रकार दुर्गा खनालसँग नेपाल संवाददाता प्रयास दुलालले नेपालमा भएको पछिल्लो प्रदर्शन र राजनीतिक दलहरुको धारणाका बारेमा गर्नुभएको कुराकानी सुन्नुहोस्।

“From this place and from this day forth commences a new era in the world's history, and you can all say you were present at its birth!” By September 1792, the Prussians, under the leadership of the formidable Duke of Brunswick, were closing in on revolutionary Paris. There, the streets roiled with the clanging of church bells, thousands of volunteers, patriotic songs and slogans, and of course; the dead bodies of all those killed during the September Massacres. It was against this feverish backdrop that on the 20th, the new National Convention - the most democratic of the assemblies yet, with unlimited powers to remake the nation - met at the famous Riding School. And though it was riven by internal rivalries under the contentious three headed triumvirate of Danton, Marat and Robespierre, remake the nation it did. Voting to abolish the monarchy once and for all, the Convention declared the institution of a new world and a new beginning for France, with all state documents from that day forth bearing the immortal words, ‘Year One'. But, with their Prussian enemies baying at the gates, would revolutionary France survive to see more than one year? A great military reckoning was approaching, which would decide the fate of the new Republic and perhaps, universal liberty. As the armies of France and Prussia met for what would prove to be one of the most ideologically significant battles of all time, political tensions were mounting in Paris… Join Dominic and Tom for this crucial, tremulous episode of the French Revolution. With Prussia closing in, bodies littering the streets, and the revolutionary leaders hungry for each other's blood, would the Revolution survive?

Bridget sits down with Curtis Yarvin, political theorist and writer formerly known as Mencius Moldbug. They discuss the road that brought Curtis to this point, his debate with Ilya Shapiro, whether capitalism requires democracy, whether oligarchs are more concerned with the outcomes of power rather then power itself, the Arab Spring, debating “isms”, why he believes the most peaceful and stable form of government is the monarchy, the truth about revolutions, why he's selective about his conspiracy theories, the Great No, the power of the executive branch, and why all Libs are basically conformists.
