On the 80th Episode of the Album Review Crew of Shout It Out Loudcast, Tom & Zeus welcome special guest Chris L from the podcast Pod Of Thunder, to review the 1983 smash album from Huey Lewis & The News, "Sports!" In the middle of the 1980's Huey Lewis & The News exploded. Their third album, "Sports" would become the second biggest album in 1984, behind only Michael Jackson's "Thriller!" Huey Lewis & The News was led by the charismatic and vastly underrated lead singer, Huey Lewis. Guitarist Chris Hayes was the lead guitar and Johnny Colla also handled guitars and the sax. On keyboards was Sean Hopper and Bill Gibson was on drums. On bass was everyone's favorite character, Mario Cipollina. Sports was Huey Lewis & The News' 3rd album. The band made sure this album was filled with songs that could all be considered singles. Their winning formula of straight bar band old time rock, R&B, Blues and great catchy melodic songs was the key to their success. The album made it to #1 on the US Billboard charts and eventually went 7 times platinum. It was produced by Huey Lewis & The News. Sports was the start of their real success, along with their songs on the "Back To The Future" soundtrack and their next album, "Fore," the band was all over MTV and the radio. This was the Zeus' pick. So enjoy the hilarious observations of the guys and Chris L and watch out for Napoleon!

1810 stod Napoleon på höjden av sin makt. Trots detta möttes den franska ockupationen av hårt motstånd i Spanien och på vissa håll i Italien och Sydtyskland. Det var främst på landsbygden och bland bondebefolkningen som motståndet var störst. Man gillade inte de franska försöken att förändra samhället. Medelklassen i italienska städer var däremot mer positivt inställda till fransmännen.Sakta gick utvecklingen mot en slutlig konfrontation mellan Alexanders Ryssland och Napoleons Frankrike. År 1812 bröt en stor fransk armé in i Ryssland. Inte mindre än 400 000 man marscherade mot Moskva för att en gång för alla tvinga Ryssland till underkastelse.Detta är det andra avsnittet av två om Napoleonkrigen där programledaren Urban Lindstedt samtalar med Martin Hårdstedt, professor i historia vid Umeå universitet om Napoleonkrigen.Vid Borodino i september bjöd ryssarna hårt motstånd, men fransmännen tog slutligen Moskva. Men Napoleon kunde inte komma åt den ryska armén. Ryssarna backade undan och lät kylan och den brända jordens taktik slita ner den franska armén. Fälttåget blev en katastrof för Napoleon. I början på 1813 linkade de sista resterna av hans Grand Armée tillbaka in i Ostpreussen.Omgående samlades en ny allians mot Napoleon. En av de ledande krafterna var den före detta franske marskalken Bernadotte – sedan 1810 svensk kronprins. Tre arméer ringade in Napoleon vid Leipzig och besegrade honom i det största slaget under kriget som pågick fyra dagar i oktober 1813. Napoleon undslapp med en del av armén till Frankrike men tvingades i april 1814 abdikera och förvisade till den lilla ön Elba.De allierade inledde den stora fredskonferensen – Wienkongressen. Knappt hade gränserna reglerats och ordningen efter årtionden återställts innan budet om Napoleons återkomst nådde de församlade ledarna i Wien. Napoleon hade i mars 1815 undkommit från Elba och inledde hundra nya dagar vid makten. Den nya franska armén som i all hast stampades fram besegrades slutligen av brittiska och preussiska styrkor som i ilmarsch sattes in mot den franske kejsaren vid Waterloo den 18 juni 1815. Detta blev det definitiva slutet för Napoleon. Han fångades och sattes på ön St Helena i Atlanten.Slutligen fick Europa fred. Alla förändringar kunde inte återställas av Wienkongressen även om det fanns ett tydligt antirevolutionärt budskap i fredens slutdokument. De gamla kungadynastieran återinsattes på tronerna med ett egentligt undantag: Bernadotte fick behålla sin ställning som kronprins av Sverige. För Norden innebar Napoloenkrigens slut att embryot till fyra självständiga nationella identiteter skapades. Sverige och Danmark var stympade, men Norge hade fått en egen författning även om man befann sig i en påtvingad union med Sverige. Finland nådde en viss autonomi som storfurstendöme inom det ryska imperiet. Hundra år senare vann Norge 1905 och Finland 1917 sin självständighet, men det hade andra förklaringar.Bild: Napoleon och resterna av la grande armée på reträtt efter det ryska fälttåget.

Napoleonkrigen 1803 till 1815 tillhör de mest omvälvande skeendena i historien. Napoleons försök att skapa ett imperium ledde till ett förödande krig som berörde stora delar av världen. Sverige förlorade också Finland till Ryssland med Napoleons goda minne.Mellan 1805 och 1807 besegrade de franska arméerna allt motstånd på kontinenten. Österrikare, ryssar och preussare fick se sig besegrade. I en serie spektakulära fälttåg och slag krossade Napoleon och hans soldater allt motstånd. Det enda Napoleon misslyckades med var att besegra den brittiska flottan.Detta är första avsnittet av två om Napoleonkrigen där programledaren Urban Lindstedt samtalar med Martin Hårdstedt, professor i historia vid Umeå universitet om Napoleonkrigen.Britterna lyckades under amiralen Nelson förgöra den förenade fransk-spanska flottan vid Trafalgar 1805. Trots denna framgång var det Napoleon som dikterade villkoren på kontinenten. År 1806 infördes blockad av brittiska varor och det tysk-romerska riket upplöstes. Sommarn 1807 träffades tsar Alexander och Napoleon i den lilla ostpreussiska gränsstaden Tilsit och förhandlade fram en fred som även innebar en uppdelning av Europa i två intressesfärer.Det franska militära systemet innebar en utveckling av krigföringen. Arméerna var indelade i självständiga divisioner och kårer. På slagfältet innebar det mindre sårbarhet om en division slogs ut av fienden påverkade det mindre den övriga delen av armén. Under förflyttning marscherade kårerna enskilt och kunde spridas över ett större område vilket innebar att det var enklare att hitta förnödenheter. Dessutom marscherade de franska soldater med minimal packning och sov i bivack eller under bar himmel. Napoleon var en mästare på att koncentrera sina trupper i rätt stund och de franska soldaterna anföll i kolonn eldade av patriotism och understödda av ett kraftfullt artilleri och kavalleri.Sverige och Danmark utsattes från 1807 för ett hårt tryck. Danmark föll för de franska hoten inte minst efter det brittiska anfallet på Köpenhamn. Sverige vägrade underordna sig och fortsatte hårdnackat att understödja britterna. I februari 1808 anföll Ryssland sydöstra Finland. Kriget blev en katastrof och innebar förlusten av Finland i freden i september 1809.Spanien ockuperades av fransmännen, som trots allt inte kunde kontrollera hela den iberiska halvön. Spanska gerillakrigare gjorde hårt motstånd understödda av brittiska soldater under hertigen av Wellington.Österrikes gjorde under intryck av de franska motgångarna i Spanien ett nytt försök att gå i krig med Napoleons Frankrike In ledningsvis vann de österrikiska arméerna vissa framgångar, men slutligen besegrades österrikarna återigen och tvingades acceptera en ännu hårdare freden än 1805.Bild: Slaget vid Austerlitz den 2 december 1805 av François Gérard digital version producerad av Réunion des Musées Nationaux Photographic Agency, Wikipedia, Public Domain.

"Those of good fellowship" [VALL]    We return to Baltimore and the rich history of one of America's oldest Sherlock Holmes societies, the Six Napoleons of Baltimore. Greg Ruby and Mike McSwiggin join us to talk about the group's origins and its upcoming 80th anniversary.    We hear about their first encounters with Sherlock Holmes and then travel back to 1946, when six Baltimore Sherlockians gathered for dinner and founded what would become the Six Napoleons. We also discuss the wonderfully complicated story behind its name, which connects a local Baltimore woman to Napoleon's family and, of course, to a famous Holmes adventure.   Today, the group continues its traditions of scholarship, trivia, and, above all, fun. We talk about their memorable "inquisition" used to induct new members, its twice-yearly meetings, and its 80th anniversary celebration this September, which features our own Scott Monty as guest speaker.    We also discuss Greg Ruby's Sherlockians of Baltimore (SOBs), a newer organization that meets quarterly, on Saturdays. It's a conversation about 80 years of Sherlockian friendship—and a reminder that the game is still very much afoot in Baltimore.   Our "Learned Societies" segment kicks off with Sherlockian society activities coming up in the first half of October. Then, it's a new edition of "Examining the Pictures," with the film critic, journalist, and author Christian Monggaard, BSI, as he begins a review of the BBC's Sherlock series. Finally, the Canonical Couplet quiz will test your Sherlock Holmes knowledge, with a copy of something from the IHOSE vaults for the winner.

More than 200 years after his fall at Waterloo, Napoleon continues to shape the modern world. His influence extends far beyond the battlefields of Europe, leaving a legacy that can still be seen in today's military organizations, legal systems, governments, and leadership doctrines.In this episode, special guest Robert C. Greenway will explore how Napoleon revolutionized warfare through the corps system, rapid maneuver warfare, mass conscription, and centralized command structures. Many of the organizational principles adopted by modern armies can trace their origins directly to the Napoleonic era.We also examine Napoleon's impact on government and civil administration. The Napoleonic Code became one of the most influential legal frameworks in history, shaping laws across Europe, Latin America, and beyond. His reforms in education, banking, merit-based promotion, and state bureaucracy helped create the foundations of the modern nation-state.From West Point to military academies around the world, Napoleon's campaigns remain essential studies in strategy, logistics, leadership, and operational art. Generals from U. S. Grant and von Moltke to Dwight D. Eisenhower have studied his methods to better understand the principles of war.Join us as we examine how a single individual transformed warfare, government, and leadership—and why Napoleon's influence remains visible in the armed forces and institutions of the 21st century.Topics Covered:Napoleon's military innovationsThe Corps System and operational warfareMass conscription and citizen armiesThe Napoleonic CodeMeritocracy and military promotionModern military doctrineLeadership lessons from NapoleonState bureaucracy and government reformThe rise of the modern nation-stateCoalition warfareX/Twitter: @andnapoleon#Napoleon #NapoleonBonaparte #MilitaryHistory #Leadership #Strategy #NapoleonicWars #HistoryPodcast #FrenchHistory #Warfare #GreatGenerals

Marek Baterowicz w książce pt "Wojna 1812 Quasi una fantasia" pisze o innym wariancie wojny z 1812. Co by było, gdyby Napoleon, zamiast iść na Moskwę, pomaszerował na Petersburg? Autor analizuje w powieści inny wariant wojny, co wpisuje się w modną od lat „historię alternatywną”, uprawianą przez wielu autorów.Posłuchaj całej godzinnej audycji radiowej tutaj...Słuchaj audycji po polsku radia SBS Polish na żywo w poniedziałki, środy, czwartki, piątki i niedziele o godz. 14.00 (czasu wschodnioaustralijskiego) na paśmie SBS Radio 1.

For most of history, the name Napoleon has been associated with conquest, ambition, and empire.  But decades after the first emperor's fall, his nephew of the same name rose to power and attempted to reshape France and the world.  His reign was marked by grand projects, dramatic victories, and a catastrophic downfall that brought an empire to an end.  Learn more about The Rise and Fall of Napoleon III on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Stephen Moss, author of Ten Birds That Changed the World, Part One: Moss discusses how birds shaped human history, starting with the Wild Turkey, which nearly became America's national bird and was essential to pilgrim survival. The naming of the Turkey stems from 16th-century confusion regarding Turkish merchants and African Guinea Fowl. Moss contrasts the Turkey with the Bald Eagle, a symbol of predatory power adopted from Roman traditions and later by Napoleon and the Nazis. The segment explores the Pigeon, the "great communicator" crucial for military messaging during D-Day and World War I, including the heroic pigeon Cher Ami. A significant portion debunks the myth of Darwin's Finches, noting that Charles Darwin initially misidentified them and failed to label their specific islands. The discussion touches on the intelligence and convergent evolution of Australian species like the Magpie and Willie Wagtail. Finally, the Dodo is introduced as the "icon of extinction." This flightless bird's demise on Mauritius, caused by human-introduced predators like monkeys and rats, forced humanity to confront the reality that species could vanish forever. Moss notes that while the Dodo is gone, its story inspired modern conservation efforts to save birds like the Pink Pigeon and Mauritius Kestrel. (1)

Efter lunch den 21 oktober 1805 bröt den brittiska flottan in i den fransk-spanska flottans linje utanför Kap Trafalgar. I spetsen för anfallet seglade det stora linjeskeppet HMS Victory med amiralen Nelson ombord. Det som sedan utspelade sig är ett stycke klassisk sjökrigshistoria.Krigets till sjöss under Napoleonkrigen avgjordes till brittisk fördel i och med Nelsons förkrossande seger över den fransk-spanska flottan vid Trafalgar. Hotet om en fransk invasion av de brittiska öarna var därmed undanröjt. Historien om slaget vid Trafalgar blir inte sämre av att hjälten själv Nelson stupade och fördes hem i en tunna med brandy.I avsnitt 42 av Militärhistoriepodden tar Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved sig ann ett av sjöhistoriens mest berömda och betydelsefulla slag. Slaget utgör slutpunkten på de stora seglande linjeskeppens epok. Under 1800-talet skulle teknikutvecklingen så småningom göra dessa artilleriplattformar i ek obsoleta.Britterna inledde med från 1805 en mer än hundra år lång dominans på de sju haven. Napoleon behärskade visserligen ännu ett årtionde kontinenten, men britterna lade grunden till ett världsomspännande kolonialimperium.Nelson var på många sätt en innovatör när det gällde sjökrigstaktik – även om han byggde vidare på förändringar som satts igång av andra. Han valde att bryta mönster och förlita sig på den brittiska flottans avgjorda kvalitativa övertag över sina motståndare. Inte minst hade de brittiska fartygen ett effektivare artilleri med mer välövade besättningar. Till det kan läggas en överlägsen förmåga att segla i formation och samordna attackerna på en motståndare som dessutom många gånger uppträdde passivt.Mycket har skrivits om Trafalgar och Nelson för att inte tala om Napoleonkrigen. Ur den digra högen av litteratur går det ändå att föreslå Alan Schoms bok Trafalgar. Countdown to battle 1803-1805 (1990) och Roger Knights The Pursuit of Victory. The Life and Achievement of Horatio Nelson (2006). Lite kortare med bra skisser i Ospreys serie Angus Konstans Horatio Nelson.

What happens when a controversial surgeon arrives on one of the world's most remote islands? St Helena, a tiny British territory in the South Atlantic, is famous for Napoleon's exile and for Jonathan the tortoise, the world's oldest living land animal. Journalist Luke Jones, who you might remember from The Pitcairn Trials, is back investigating another shocking scandal. He travelled to St Helena to speak to Islanders who were meant to benefit from the arrival of a top orthopedic surgeon 2015. Instead, residents say he caused devastating harm and are now in a fight for justice.It's very rare that I recommend another podcast but I'm bringing this one to you today simply because I found it fascinating and I hope you will too.

Every schoolchild in the English-speaking world learns William the Conqueror's name. What most of them never hear is that William spent his final years bitter about another Norman knight — a man his own contemporaries considered the more accomplished conqueror of their generation.His name was Robert Guiscard. He was born to a minor noble family in Normandy with too many sons and too little land. He arrived in Southern Italy as a bandit stealing horses in Calabria. Twenty years later he was Duke of Apulia, had defeated the Byzantine Emperor in battle, and was planning to march on Constantinople itself. When William landed at Hastings in 1066, Guiscard had already been ruling more Italian territory for seven years than William would ever hold in England.And Guiscard wasn't alone. He was one of twelve brothers. Between them, the sons of a minor Norman lord named Tancred de Hauteville built the Kingdom of Sicily — a multicultural state employing Muslim scholars, Byzantine bureaucrats, and Latin monks in the same government.

Den franska revolutionen är en unik händelse i världshistorien där det rådande statsskicket och feodalismen avskaffades i floder av blod. Usla statsfinanser och skriande orättvisor banade vägen för omvälvningen.När den franska monarken Ludvig XVI inkallade ständerna för att genomföra skattehöjningar startade kungen en utveckling han inte klarade av att hantera. Ludvig XVI var svag och vankelmodig. En rad händelser och kungens kontakter med fientliga makter ledde till att han avrättades 1793. En tid senare avrättades även hans gemål Marie-Antoinette.I avsnitt 136 av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med professor Dick Harrison vid Lunds universitet som är aktuell med boken Franska revolutionen.I början av 1793 dömdes så Ludvig XVI, nu ”medborgare Louis Capet”, med knapp majoritet till döden för förräderi och giljotinerades 21 januari. Efter avrättningen utbröt kontrarevolutionära oroligheter på landsbygden som utvecklades till ett inbördeskrig.Den demokratiska författningen från juni 1793 sattes ur spel och ny lagstiftning stadgade dödstraff för revolutionens fiende. Allt mer radikal lagstiftning infördes och snart inträdde fasen som efteråt kallades skräckväldet när tiotusentals människor avrättades som revolutionens fiende. Revolutionen kom att börja äta sina egna barn i en allt bittrare strid om makten.Skräckväldet banade sedan vägen för en militärdiktatur och att Napoleon kröntes som kejsare.Bild: Avrättningen av Ludvig XVI (”Louis Capet”) den 21 januari 1793 på Place de la Révolution i Paris, ett avgörande ögonblick i franska revolutionen som markerade monarkins fall och republikens radikalisering.

Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan of the New York Times join Donny to discuss their bestselling book Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump. They reveal how they landed remarkable access to sources still serving inside the administration, and walk through two of the book's most stunning scenes: the bizarre Oval Office moment when Trump had an aide read out a list ranking him among history's most powerful figures (alongside Napoleon, Hitler, and Genghis Khan), and the extraordinary Situation Room meeting where Netanyahu personally pitched Trump on an Iran regime-change operation — only for the CIA director to call the plan "farcical" the next day. They dig into how a gut-driven decision led to the U.S. bombing Iran, why Trump's inner circle now trusts his instincts over expert warnings, the administration's evolving stance on AI regulation, and rapid-fire one-line verdicts on JD Vance, Scott Bessent, Howard Lutnick, Susie Wiles, Pete Hegseth, and Stephen Miller.

Hugh Hallman, Attorney, Educator, and former Mayor of Tempe, joins Seth in studio for the full hour to each a pastrami sandwich, discuss the 1914 assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Hugh shares the real history about Gavrilo Princip, the assassin, and how he ended up enjoying a sandwich at a deli in Sarajevo. This leads to a discussion about the consequences of failing to educate ourselves about our history and the principles of democracy. They also discuss the contents of the now-public personal diary entries of former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Anthony Fauci. Seth and Hugh highlight the need to understand the egotistic characteristics of great leaders like Alexander, Caesar, and Napoleon, and how they can threaten a democracy when seen in individuals like Dr. Fauci. They also discuss the failure of the education system to teach these essential lessons, leading to a generation of citizens who are ill-equipped to recognize the dangers of tyranny and the importance of civic virtue. The conversation also touches on the role of Dr. Fauci in shaping public opinion and the media's complicity in promoting his narrative, highlighting the consequences of failing to question authority and the importance of a free press in a democratic society.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“The statesman is an educator who leads through language — who gives a people the language they need to think about themselves.” — Steven B. Smith on what makes a statesman Was Odysseus a statesman? The Yale political philosopher Steven B. Smith — who, by the way, can't beg, steal or borrow a ticket to Christopher Nolan's cinematic epic — offers a cautious yes. While Odysseus wasn't exactly a founder of states, he was, to borrow one of Homer's favorite words, “polytropos” — which translates as many-sided, a master of the political adaptability that Machiavelli demanded of his Prince. In his forthcoming On Statesmanship, Smith distinguishes the true statesman from the mere leader. All 195 states in the world have leaders, he says, almost none are blessed with statesmen. A genuine statesman, he explains, is an educator who leads his fellow citizens through language. So Lincoln's Gettysburg Address gave Americans new words to think about themselves. Just like de Gaulle's “certain idea of France” and Churchill's uncompromisingly defiant language in 1940. For statesmen, timing is everything. “Fortune is a woman,” Machiavelli advised his Prince, so she should be mastered adventurously. Many are called, few are chosen. But then they are unchosen. That same unbowed Churchill spent a decade in the political wilderness before 1940, then got booted out of office at the end of the war. Hegel called such figures world-historical individuals — used by history, then cruelly discarded. Ironically, it's “great” men of history like Odysseus and Churchill who are most vulnerable to its female fortune. On Statesmanship is equally clear about who doesn't qualify for this exclusive club. Smith argues that Lenin, Hitler, and Napoleon might have founded states, but weren't statesmen because they had no respect for the rule of law. Nor is the club purely Western, white, or male. Mandela, Havel, Gandhi, and MLK all qualify as “statesmen without states.” Singapore's Lee Kuan Yew makes the cut as a constitutionalist if not a democrat. Fortune might be a woman, but Margaret Thatcher and Indira Gandhi mastered fate with more adventure than their male colleagues. Political leadership these days, Smith says, is monopolized by either technocrats or demagogues. In fact, Smith can only name one true contemporary statesman — Volodymyr Zelensky who, he says, is “doing a stirring imitation of Winston Churchill.” Otherwise the world is drifting into Thucydides' trap where the strong do what they like and the weak suffer what they must. Thus our longing for many-sided leaders like Odysseus. Which is why Nolan's blockbuster is such a hit that Steven Smith has yet to see it. One small footnote to this conversation. Afterwards, Smith sent me a note expressing a correction of how he described Obama: “Reflecting back on the conversation, I was embarrassed about what I said about Obama lacking ‘civil courage.' That is not exactly what I meant. Probably a better formulation would be to say that he lacked what Plato called ‘thymos,' a kind of public-spirited anger. His rationality and ‘coolness' — in many ways admirable traits — gave the impression that he was too aloof from the rough-and-tumble of politics. Anger and indignation when judiciously employed, as my former student Amia Srinivasan has argued, remain formidable tools in the statesman's tool kit.” Five Takeaways •       A Leader Is Not a Statesman. There are 195 states in the world and every one has a leader; almost none has a statesman. The concept is an ideal of what leadership aspires to be, running from Plato's Politikos and the philosopher-king to the present. The statesman has the usual leadership virtues — foresight, courage, determination, a willingness to say unpopular things — but Smith's central claim is different: the statesman is an educator who leads through language, giving a people the words they need to think about themselves. Lincoln's Gettysburg Address shaped how Americans understand their republic; de Gaulle led with “a certain idea of France”; Churchill and Disraeli wrote the British self-image.•       Timing — and the Tragedy. Statesmanship is a matter of the ripe moment, and the moment is cruel. Churchill spent the 1930s in the political wilderness, changed parties, presided over Gallipoli — and yet when 1940 came, he was there, prepared; the instant peace was established, the voters discarded him. Lenin resolved the Marxists' endless debate about whether Russia was “ripe” by deciding that ripeness was a matter of willpower. Hegel called such figures world-historical individuals — Caesar, Napoleon, Alexander — whom history uses for its purposes and then throws away. Even without Hegel's grand narrative, Smith notes, statesmen are routinely and cruelly discarded by their own people. There is a tragedy built into the art.•       Who's Out — and Who's In. Lenin, Hitler, and Napoleon founded states, but founders of tyrannies are not statesmen: for Smith the modern statesman is inseparable from constitutionalism — rule of law, balance of powers, the capacity to listen and accept less than the whole loaf. Nor is the club white, Western, or male. Mandela, Havel, Gandhi, and Martin Luther King appear as “statesmen without states,” shaping nations before or without holding office; Lee Kuan Yew qualifies as a constitutionalist if not a democrat; Thatcher — who famously told a wobbling American president to stiffen — and Indira Gandhi practice statecraft at the highest level. As for the word itself: Smith keeps “statesman.” “Statesperson,” he rules, is ugly.•       The Anti-Statesmen: Technocrat and Demagogue. Smith's chapter on anti-statesmen identifies the two failed models of modern leadership: the technocrat, a problem-solver-in-chief without a narrative, and the demagogue — a Greek word, and a breed democracies reliably produce — who rules through fear, intimidation, and humiliation. Trump, mentioned barely twice in the book, is filed under the latter, classically. Obama remains Smith's enigma: civic seriousness and dazzling rhetorical gifts — yet lacking, Smith suggests on reflection, what Plato called thymos, a kind of public-spirited anger. Obama's rationality and coolness, admirable in themselves, gave the impression of a man too aloof from the rough-and-tumble of politics; anger and indignation, judiciously employed — as Smith's former student Amia Srinivasan has argued — remain formidable tools in the statesman's tool kit. The Democrats, Smith argues, are trapped between both failed models, and need what Lincoln, FDR, JFK, and Reagan had: an affirmative story of America to embed themselves in.•       One Statesman Standing. Asked to name a contemporary statesman, Smith offers exactly one — “and I say God bless him”: Volodymyr Zelensky, doing a stirring imitation of Winston Churchill, showing guts and magnanimity in a horrible moment for his people. Otherwise: seven British prime ministers in a decade, and a paucity everywhere else. Statesmen, Smith warns, cannot simply be willed into existence. And the alternative is already visible — the world of Thucydides, where the strong do what they like and the weak suffer what they must, carved into spheres of influence by Iran, Russia, and China. That is what a w...

Historian and author Lord Conrad Black joins Secrets of Statecraft _to discuss the third volume of his monumental _Political and Strategic History of the World, covering the turbulent years from the reign of Louis XIV to the outbreak of the First World War.

In the eighth and final 15 minutes of our screenplay treatment, Napoleon really is trying to get this one last job done by completing the Brumaire coup. But his bid for his ultimate goal requires an unexpected sacrifice and is dependent on an essential contribution from his now thoroughly beloved Josephine. With a new framing device underlining the crucial role of Paul Barras in this story as the antagonist, we're sprinting for a finish line - and a certain comfy chair for our leading man.Yes, it's episode nine of our screenwriting escapade, in which we complete our mission of crafting a top-notch screenplay treatment about the life of Napoleon Bonaparte. Alex Stevenson is joined by James Topham (who knows a thing or two about screenwriting) and Ben Deery (who knows a thing or two about acting) to put the movie world to rights. Having analysed the pitfalls and frustrations of Ridley Scott's Napoleon 2023 in the first season the Napoleon Movie Quarter-Hourly, this time round the team have tried their uppermost to come up with the magic themselves.As our resident artificial aide-de-camp NAIpoleon Bot-aparte puts it:[02:27] The Recap of the "Rotten Pear": James catches us up on Act Three so far, featuring Napoleon's desertion from Egypt, a "titanic" row with Josephine, and a dinner with Barras that changes everything.[12:12] History is a Farce: Alex reads from Zamoyski's biography, revealing the hilarious historical reality of the coup: a bucking horse, a stress-induced facial rash, and a very "undone" Napoleon.[17:03] Dramatic Masterstroke or "Sh*tshow"?: The team debates whether Napoleon's historical bungling of the coup is a screenwriting disaster or an ironic opportunity for a "stunning performance."[19:13] The Ultimate Sacrifice: Alex pitches a thematic climax where Napoleon trades his "Great Man" dignity and romantic ideals for the grubbiness of actual power.[21:45] The Novella as a Blunt Instrument: Ben suggests a high-action alternative involving Napoleon beating a man unconscious with his own rolled-up novella manuscript.[28:35] The Framing Device Rabbit Hole: A deep dive into the art of the framing device, featuring references to The Princess Bride, Amadeus, and the "triangle" used in the World Snooker Championship.[33:10] Perspectives on a Dinner: The hosts pitch a circular narrative structure that uses a dinner with Barras to show how the "urbane puppet master" became the man who "owes Napoleon everything."[43:03] Marinara in the Sticks: Exploring the "fitting end" for Barras—sidelined to a provincial town like Ray Liotta at the end of Goodfellas with nothing but bad pasta sauce for company.[45:28] The Bonaparte Whisperer: Josephine finally gets an active role in the heist, proving she is a master survivor who knows exactly how to handle smitten Directory presidents and resignation letters.[52:36] The Dictator's Comfy Chair: The team lands on a final image involving a circular seating arrangement, an enigmatic grin, and the most crucial question of the production: "Who is going to play the pug?"Help us produce more episodes by supporting the Napoleonic Quarterly on Patreon: patreon.com/napoleonicquarterly

In 1811, Britain's aging king could no longer rule, and his extravagant son stepped in as Prince Regent.  The years that followed saw the defeat of Napoleon, rapid industrial growth, political unrest, and a cultural style still associated with elegance and excess.  At the center of it all was the future George IV, a man remembered as much for his buildings, clothes, debts, and scandals as for his reign.  Learn more about the Regency Era and George IV on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The French Revolution didn't end in tyranny. It invented a new kind.History calls Napoleon a genius. That story isn't wrong — it's just incomplete. The real engine wasn't genius. It was architecture. Ballot boxes surrounded by bayonets. Referendums written before the votes were cast. Prefects in every province. Bonds that turned rich men into loyalty machines. Then Louis Napoleon ran the same playbook forty years later — a December coup, a midnight constitution, and Haussmann's boulevards designed for troop movement, not just beauty.The Bonapartes didn't seize power. They built a machine that asked the people to hand it over and engineered only one possible answer. This video walks the full autopsy — the five architectural pieces that held plebiscitary empire together, why Waterloo didn't kill the template, and what the modern version of the same machine looks like.═══════════════════════════════

A single night of terror in the mountains of Haiti in 1791 ignites a slave revolution that forever alters America's destiny.  This episode follows the astonishing chain of events leading to the Louisiana Purchase, the greatest land deal in American history.  Napoleon's collapsing Caribbean empire, Thomas Jefferson's constitutional dilemma, and Robert Livingtson's high-stakes negotiations all collide in a moment that doubles the size of the United States overnight.  Then, follow Meriwether Lewis, William Clark, Sacagawea, and the “Corps of Discovery” on their 8,000-mile expedition into the unknown.  It's a story of ambition, survival, discovery, and the complicated growth of a continental nation.
