Podcasts about origins

STELLAR ORIGINS AND COMPETING COSMOLOGIES Colleague Professor Paul Halpern. The focus shifts to Fred Hoyle, whose musical mother taught him to read via silent film subtitles. Halpern details Hoyle's journey to Cambridge, where his ambition to work in nuclear physics was interrupted by WWII radar research. Hoyle became fascinated by astronomy, eventually authoring a key 1946 paper on stellar nucleosynthesis, proposing that elements are forged inside stars. This set the stage for the "Great Big Bang Debate." While Gamow argued for element creation in a hot, primeval explosion, Hoyle developed the Steady State theory, filling in the gaps of an expanding universe. NUMBER 2 1961

VIRGIL'S RURAL ORIGINS AND AUGUSTAN CONNECTION Colleagues Scott McGill and Susanna Wright. The guests discuss Virgil's birth in 70 BCE near Mantua and his rural upbringing, which influenced his poetry. They trace his move to Rome during civil war and his eventual connection to Augustus, noting that Virgil promised a grand epic for the emperor in his earlier work, the Georgics. NUMBER 9

At this moment, the cheapest way to create electricity is by pointing a solar panel at the sun. That's good news for the climate. It's also good news for communities who want to take control of their own electricity generation. In the heart of Brooklyn, UPROSE is helping to build a solar project that will be owned by the community, provide jobs, and help residents bring down their energy costs. In Puerto Rico, where hurricanes have devastated the power grid, community members are building solar microgrids to provide reliable electricity as the utility has proven they cannot. Meanwhile in conservative rural Virginia, Energy Right is helping farmers and rural communities adopt solar projects, touting a free market message about energy independence and security.  Guests:  Elizabeth Yeampierre, Attorney; Executive Director, UPROSE  Skyler Zunk, CEO and Founder, Energy Right  Arturo Massol-Deyá, Executive Director, Casa Pueblo de Adjuntas For show notes and related links, visit ClimateOne.org.

In this episode of Scottish Clans, we delve into Clan MacLellan, a powerhouse of medieval Galloway whose story is one of meteoric rise, bloody feuds, and tragic decline through unyielding loyalty. Emerging in the late 13th century as devotees of St. Fillan (their name from Gaelic MacGilleFhaolain), the MacLellans swiftly claimed lands around Balmaclellan, Raeberry, and Bombie in the Stewartry of Kirkcudbright. Scholar Graeme M. Mackenzie proposes an intriguing shared origin with Clan MacMillan, tracing both to 12th-century Bishop Cormac mac Airbertach – a theory bolstered by adjacent settlements in the Glenkens and early heraldic similarities. From Balliol supporters in the Wars of Independence to staunch royalists against the Black Douglases, the MacLellans earned a fearsome reputation as one of Galloway's toughest clans.Links:Scottish Clans Website Contribute to the CauseGet your Clandana and Battle ShirtsFor Speaking Engagements, email me at thescottishclans@gmail.com.Origins of the MacLellans by Graeme Mackenzie

The holidays are when drinking quietly ramps up for a lot of people. More parties, more stress, more excuses, and habits that feel temporary but often aren't. This episode is for anyone reflecting on their relationship with alcohol, substances, or compulsive habits and questioning whether those patterns are actually supporting the life and health they want going forward. This episode features host Dave Asprey joined by Luke Storey, a motivational speaker, spiritual teacher, and host of the top-rated podcast The Life Stylist, which has surpassed 10 million downloads. Luke is widely regarded as a pioneer in health and wellness, known for articulating transformative principles around spirituality, addiction recovery, and mental, emotional, and physical health optimization. Together, Dave and Luke explore why getting sober and staying sober rarely comes down to willpower alone. They unpack how addiction often shows up as biology, trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and learned coping patterns, not just substance use. The conversation expands the definition of addiction to include socially accepted behaviors like alcohol, nicotine, work, scrolling, and distraction. The discussion moves through long term sobriety, discernment around substances, the role of spirituality in recovery, and how people break free from compulsive loops by addressing root causes instead of chasing short term fixes. Nuanced topics like abstinence, nicotine, psychedelics, and altered states are explored with clear boundaries around safety, intention, and stability. You'll learn: • Why willpower alone fails to sustain sobriety • How addiction is driven by nervous system wiring and trauma • Why socially accepted habits can still be addictive • How to tell the difference between craving and intuition • What supports long term recovery beyond abstinence • Why identity and environment matter more than discipline • How sobriety creates clarity, resilience, and freedom over time Thank you to our sponsors! -TRU KAVA | Go to https://trukava.com/ and use code DAVE10 for 10% off. -Caldera + Lab | Go to https://calderalab.com/DAVE and use code DAVE at checkout for 20% off your first order. -Vibrant Blue Oils | Grab a full-size bottle for over 50% off at https://vibrantblueoils.com/dave.

PREVIEW Guests: Scott McGill and Susanna Wright. Rice University classicists McGill and Wright discuss their new translation of Virgil's Aeneid, a "Hollywood worthy" epic detailing the origins of Rome. The narrative follows Aeneas leading a band of refugees from the burning ruins of Troy westward to their destined home in Italy. Their journey is fraught with the goddess Juno's opposition, leading to a detour in Carthage and a tragic romance with Dido. The poem concludes with a fierce war in Italy, ending abruptly as Aeneas kills his rival Turnus, securing the legacy where Trojansultimately become Romans.

In this solo episode of The SuperLife Podcast, Darin Olien dives deep into the true biology of energy—not motivation, not stimulants, not willpower, but the mitochondria themselves. Inspired by a groundbreaking conversation between Dr. Andrew Huberman and Dr. Martin Picard, Darin reframes energy as an emergent property of how we live, not just what we eat or how much we sleep. This episode explores how mitochondria act as signal translators, listening to your food, stress, sleep, movement, emotions, purpose, and environment—and turning those signals into either vitality or depletion. Darin connects cutting-edge mitochondrial science with real-world practices around recovery, meaningful stress, consistency, connection, and alignment, showing how true longevity and resilience are built at the cellular level.     What You'll Learn in This Episode 00:00  – Welcome to SuperLife & the mission of sovereignty and vitality 00:32 – Thera Sage sponsor: family-built healing tech & red light 02:10 – Why this episode is different: diving into cellular energy 02:42 – Inspiration from Huberman & Picard's mitochondria conversation 03:11 – Rethinking mitochondria: not just ATP, but information processors 04:03 – Energy as potential for change, not calories or fuel 04:39 – How thoughts, emotions, food, and stress shape energy 05:05 – Energy is dynamic, adaptive, and responsive to how you live 06:02 – Mitochondria as signal integrators: sleep, hormones, purpose, connection 06:50 – Mitochondria as antennas, not factories 07:16 – Translating life experience into biological energy 08:09 – Why we don't feel "energy," we feel energy flow 08:53 – Flow states, purpose, and why passion creates vitality 09:32 – Different organs, different mitochondrial roles 10:26 – Why energy optimization is not one-size-fits-all 10:49 – Energy resistance: the hidden cause of fatigue and burnout 11:47 – Chronic stress, poor sleep, and ultra-processed food as energy blockers 12:12 – Why recovery is non-negotiable for longevity 12:20 – Caldera Lab sponsor: clean, performance-driven skincare 14:20 – The danger of constant output without recovery 14:45 – Sleep as a mitochondrial reset and repair system 15:40 – Exercise, adaptation, and why recovery completes the signal 16:22 – Intentional stress vs. chronic stress 17:29 – Food as information, not just fuel 18:05 – Time-restricted eating, fresh food, and metabolic signaling 18:27 – Meaning, purpose, and emotional states as cellular inputs 19:23 – Mitochondria, aging, and the potential reversibility of decline 20:06 – SuperLife framework: alignment over optimization 20:37 – Consistency beats intensity at the cellular level 21:19 – Stable rhythms: sleep, nourishment, hydration, movement 21:45 – Stillness, meditation, and parasympathetic repair 22:35 – Growth requires both resistance and recovery 24:44 – Connection, community, and loneliness as biological signals 25:27 – Eliminating fatal conveniences to restore vitality 26:02 – Your mitochondria are listening—change the signals 26:21 – Honoring Huberman & Picard's contribution to human health 27:12 – Energy flow as the foundation of a SuperLife 28:11 – Closing reflections and invitation to apply this work     Thank You to Our Sponsors Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Caldera Lab: Experience the clinically proven benefits of Caldera Lab's clean skincare regimen and enjoy 20% off your order by visiting calderalab.com/darin and using code DARIN at checkout.     Join the SuperLife Community Get Darin's deeper wellness breakdowns — beyond social media restrictions: Weekly voice notes Ingredient deep dives Wellness challenges Energy + consciousness tools Community accountability Extended episodes Join for $7.49/month → https://patreon.com/darinolien     Find More from Darin Olien: Instagram: @darinolien Podcast: SuperLife Podcast Website: superlife.com Book: Fatal Conveniences     Key Takeaway "Your mitochondria are not broken.

This episode confronts one of the most controversial questions in modern Christianity: should believers celebrate Christmas at all? We examine historical records, ancient pagan traditions, and biblical silence surrounding December 25 to uncover whether Christmas aligns with Christian doctrine or pagan ritual. This is not satire, tradition, or opinion—it is a serious, evidence-based discussion meant to challenge assumptions many have never questioned.

Happy holidays to all! As is our tradition, and as we aren't going to run out any time soon, the week of Christmas we read three stories of the holidays in Gotham. One is a little holiday kinda-noir from Bat legends Denny O'Neil and Frank Miller, one is a perplexing animated series style Brave and the Bold that might explain the intergalactic origins of Santa and the final is a mini-series where Batman teams up with one of the men who trained him: Kris Kringle himself.

Christian scholar Dr. Tim Larsen joins the show to explain the real origins of the Christmas traditions we hold dear today—from Santa Claus and reindeer to ornaments and the December 25th date itself. He debunks the persistent myth that Christmas is a pagan holiday, explores how centuries of tradition shaped modern celebrations, and helps separate historical fact from popular fiction. And yes—we settle the age-old question: Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?   Dr. Timothy Larsen is a Professor of History at Wheaton College in Illinois and the president of the American Society of Church History.  His scholarly expertise is the Victorian era, the period that has done so much to shape our Christmas celebrations today, and he is an expert on Christmas.  He is the author or editor of over twenty books, including Twelve Classic Christmas Stories: A Feast of Yuletide Tales and The Oxford Handbook of Christmas.

In my annual holiday special for 2025, I examine discrepancies in the gospels relating to Jesus's lineage and parentage, as well as the gospel authors' use of common biblical tropes, their incorporation of prophecy and philosophy, and early church apologists' embrace of comparisons between Christ and pagan mythology, to demonstrate that, though Jesus was a real person, the gospels are crafted narratives, not the histories that biblical literalists make them out to be.

On this episode of HALO Talks, host Pete Moore welcomes industry veteran Steve Roderick, the man behind Bozeman, Montana's Ridge Athletic. Steve began his career in the HALO sector serendipitously—thanks to a chance encounter in a Wyoming bar—Roderick talks about how his love for athletics fueled his vision to elevate community health and wellness. From building the Ridge from the ground up to navigating the constantly evolving landscape of Bozeman, he reflects on the importance of creating a multi-generational, welcoming environment, his strategies for growth, and the value of relationships—both inside the club and across the industry. Whether you're an entrepreneur, an operator, or a passionate member of the HALO sector, Steve's story is packed with insights on building culture, driving community impact, and staying ahead through collaboration. When it comes to the secret of building out a great team Roderick jokes, "If you're gonna run a business, the thing you need to do is hire people smarter than you. And I said, 'Well, that's gonna be easy!'" Key themes discussed Origins and evolution of Ridge Athletic. Strategic location and real estate development. Building brand equity and community presence. Facility design and member demo. Growth of Bozeman and regional opportunities. Creating strong company culture and staff retention. Importance of networking and industry learning. A Few Key Takeaways:  1.Building from the Ground Up and Taking Risks: Roderick got his (very) unexpected start in the fitness club business when he was literally handed the keys to a 30,000 square foot facility in Wyoming that was going out of business. He didn't know much about running a gym but dove in, learned quickly, and eventually built his own fitness center from scratch in Bozeman. 2. The Importance of Location and Vision: When developing Ridge Athletic, Steve  chose a piece of land on the outskirts of Bozeman, trusting that the community would eventually grow around the facility. Over time, his vision proved spot-on, with Bozeman's expansion making The Ridge a hub of activity and fitness in the center of town. 3. Community and Brand Equity: Maintaining both a main facility and a satellite downtown location allowed The Ridge to reach diverse demographics and reinforce its presence. Steve recognized the value of building relationships in the business district while also expanding with a larger, flagship facility. 4. Creating a Welcoming Culture for Staff and Members: A key to The Ridge's success is the positive, team-driven culture Steve built for both employees and members. He focuses on hiring people who are passionate and smarter than himself, fostering an environment where staff feel respected and motivated, which translates to a better experience for members. 5. Catering to All Ages and Building for the Future: The Ridge is intentionally inclusive, offering programs and spaces for everyone—from children to seniors. He emphasizes that creating meaningful programming for kids encourages family memberships and helps foster lifelong fitness habits. He also stresses the need for continued professional growth and industry connection, citing the value of mastermind groups like REX Roundtable.

John Droz, an independent physicist with over 40 years of experience in state and national issues, discusses the severe deficiencies in the K-12 education system, particularly the infiltration of left-leaning propaganda and the suppression of critical thinking. He highlights the adoption of Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) by 49 states, which he argues undermine the traditional scientific method and promote conformity. Droz proposes a solution involving the formal teaching of critical thinking in K-12 education and a reformation of the Federal Department of Education to serve an advisory role rather than a regulatory one.00:00 Introduction and Guest Background02:07 Critical Thinking and Its Importance07:18 Differences Between Left and Right30:47 Focus on Science Curriculum37:53 The Role of State Boards in Education42:48 The Origins of Common Core43:22 Introduction of Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)45:28 Critique of NGSS and the Scientific Method50:56 The Push Against Critical Thinking53:17 Adoption of NGSS by States57:23 The Need for Critical Thinking in Education01:04:07 Efforts to Implement Critical Thinking Standards01:13:53 The Role of Federal and State Education Departments01:20:44 Conclusion and Final Thoughtshttp://wiseenergy.org/https://election-integrity.info/https://c19science.info/https://criticallythinking.substack.com/John's email: aaprjohn@northnet.org=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

In this episode, your hosts Daniel Bridge-Gadd and Tristan Bowling dive into the fascinating history of presents during Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights. Join us as we unravel the origins, meanings, and some of the best gifts throughout Hanukkah history. The Rich History of Hanukkah Gifts Hanukkah, celebrated for eight nights, goes beyond just the lighting of the menorah. The tradition of gift-giving is a relatively modern development, but it carries profound significance. Origins of Hanukkah Historical Background: Hanukkah commemorates the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem and the miracle of the oil that lasted eight days. Understanding Hanukkah's historical context helps illuminate why gifts have become integral to the celebration. Evolution of Gift-Giving Early Traditions: Originally, Hanukkah was a time for joy, not necessarily gift-giving. Children received "gelt," or chocolate coins, symbolizing the importance of education and the story of Hanukkah. Modern Adaptations: In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly in America, Jewish families began to adopt the tradition of giving gifts, similar to Christmas practices. This shift reflects wider cultural influences and the desire to create festive family traditions. Best Presents in Hanukkah History During this episode, we'll discuss some of the most memorable presents gifted during Hanukkah. From meaningful tokens to extravagant surprises, these gifts not only bring joy but also convey messages of love and heritage. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Discover the interconnectedness of peddling and factory work, the surprising origins of the Aloha shirt, and the key role Syrian workers played in major labor actions like the 1912 Bread and Roses strike in Lawrence, Massachusetts. Associate Professor of History at the University of California and author of "Unmentionables: Textiles, Garment Work, and the Syrian American Working Class" Dr. Stacy D. Fahrenthold discusses her work which offers a class-conscious history of the Syrian-American diaspora, a community of about half a million people in the 1910s, 1920s and 1930s. While the "peddler" is often the central figure and icon of this diaspora's economic history for over a century, Fahrenthold shifts the focus to the new immigrants who came to the U.S. and found work in the textile industries. The conversation explores the hidden role of Syrian-American garment workers, particularly young women, who produced goods like "kimonos", undergarments, stockings, and household textiles. 0:00 Introducing Unmentionables & Shifting the Icon from Peddler to Laborer0:40 Lawrence, Massachusetts: The Second Largest Arab-American Community1:48 Who Was The Syrian American Working Class?2:41 The Gap in Arab-American Diaspora History3:14 Textiles and Garment Work4:50 The Peddler: Icon vs Reality7:12 Labor Experience In The U.S. vs Greater Syria8:50 Skilled Silk Weavers and First-Time Proletarians10:14 Syrian Workers and Global Labor Movements11:27 The Bread and Roses Strike of 191215:09 Dynamite, Arrests and Militarization of the Syrian Neighborhood19:16 Scale of Syrian Immigration Compared to Other Groups22:14 The Majority of Textile Workers Were Women24:43 The Connection to the Silk Industry in Mount Lebanon27:28 A Look Inside a Syrian-American Garment Factory29:04 The Kimono: Branding and Orientalism31:50 The Effacement of Origins in the Marketplace35:36 Economic and Social Mobility For Syrian-American Families39:03 The Legacy of Syrian-American Textile Companies40:01 The Lebanese Origins of The Aloha Shirt43:14 Marghab Linen and Racial Stereotyping44:22 Geographic Dispersion of Syrian Communities47:09 Illicit Activity and Contraband in the Diaspora49:22 Recommended Readings In Arab-American History Stacy Fahrenthold is a historian of the modern Middle East specializing in labor migration; displacement/refugees; border studies; and diasporas within and from the region. Her new book "Unmentionables: Textiles, Garment Work, and the Syrian American Working Class" examines how Syrian, Lebanese, and Palestinian immigrant workers navigated processes of racialization, immigration restriction, and labor contestation in the textile industries of the Atlantic world. It recently received the Middle East Studies Association's 2025 Nikki Keddie Award for "outstanding scholarly work in religion, revolution, and/or society." Her award-winning first book, "Between the Ottomans and the Entente: The First World War in the Syrian and Lebanese Diaspora" examines the politics of Syrian and Lebanese migration to the Americas during the First World War, the fall of the Ottoman Empire, and the rise of European Mandates in the Middle East.

In this Substack Live conversation, Katie Farinas is joined by fellow midlife coach Sue McCreedie to explore the powerful difference between setting goals and living from soul-aligned intentions.Both Katie and Sue share their journeys from medical professionals into midlife coaching, and why the new year is a natural inflection point—a time to reflect, release, and consciously choose what we want to bring forward.They discuss why goals often leave us feeling like we either succeed or fail, while intentions allow us to live in alignment with our deepest values and soul's desires. From that place, aligned goals can naturally emerge.Sue introduces numerology and explains how it can guide us through 2025 and 2026. Tarot cards are used as symbolic mirrors for each year, helping tap into the subconscious. Katie then guides Sue through a body scan, breathwork, heart chakra activation, and visualization meditation to connect with a soul word for 2026.Listeners are invited to play along, reflect, and listen for what their own soul is asking for next.

Celebrating 75 Years of Formula 1 at the Pebble Beach Concours. To celebrate the 75th anniversary of Formula 1, the 2025 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance traced the full history of Formula racing — from cars representing its origins in Grand Prix racing through to cars on the starting grid today. The 1910 Benz 21/80 Prinz Heinrich Renn Wagon makes its way down Highway 1 on the Tour d'Elegance. Origins of Formula 1: Grand Prix 1906–1940 While the cars in this class were exhibited rather than judged, they were not at all static: two out of the seven cars participated in the Pebble Beach Tour d'Elegance. These cars included the 1910 Benz 21/80 Prinz Heinrich Renn Wagon and the 1927 Delage Type 15 S8 Grand Prix. This class demonstrated the elegance and attitude that came from these racing greats that played a role in the rise of Formula 1. 75th Anniversary of Formula 1: 1950-1973 class Restored in 2010 to its 1967 Watkins Glen specification, the 1967 Lotus 49 Formula 1 took First in Class for the 75th Anniversary of Formula 1: 1950 to 1973. Its engine, the Ford Cosworth DFV, became the most successful Formula 1 engine in history, winning 155 Grand Prix. This car also drove over the ramp a second time to receive the Tony Hulman Trophy, which is awarded to the most significant open wheel race car. Another standout moment for this class was the first American-built F1 race car, the 1960 Scarab Formula 1, in motion on the Tour d'Elegance.

Dive into Christmas true crime, Santa Claus history, and holiday folklore with the real medieval relic heist that helped shape the legend of Santa. In 1087, sailors from Bari, Italy break into the tomb of St. Nicholas in Myra (modern Turkey)—and the world's most famous Christmas icon gets a disturbingly real origin story.Inside the candlelit crypt, witnesses claim the tomb is flooded with mysterious liquid—the “manna” of St. Nicholas—and the thieves interpret it as a sign the saint approves. But back on shore, the people of Myra collapse into grief and fury, pleading for even a single fragment. And when the relics reach Bari, the celebration turns volatile: church power struggles, blood spilled in the saint's name, and a brand-new basilica built to lock the prize in place.Then the rivalry escalates. Venice returns to Myra and scoops up what Bari left behind—tiny fragments, crushed pieces, a second claim to the same saint. Centuries later, science steps into the story: anatomical studies, missing bones, and the unsettling realization that Santa's “origin story” includes grave-robbing, propaganda, and a relic war that rewrote Europe's holiday traditions.Inside this episode:The 1087 relic heist: how Bari's sailors infiltrate Myra and break into the tomb“Furta sacra”: the medieval logic that framed theft as holy rescueThe grief of Myra: a town begging for any piece of their protectorBari's power play: riots, control of the relics, and a basilica built for a stolen saintBari vs. Venice: the second “collection” of bones and a centuries-long relic rivalryMiracles and manna: the eerie liquid linked to St. Nicholas and why skeptics argue backThe Santa connection: how this crime helped carry St. Nicholas into Western Europe's Christmas traditionWe're telling that story tonight.

Renato (Ren) Circi, co-founder of SAVA, a London based MedTech company building a new generation of minimally invasive continuous glucose monitors and molecular wearables.In this episode we rewind to the underground labs at Imperial College London where Ren and his co-founder Raph first immersed themselves in biosensors and began questioning the status quo of health monitoring. Ren explains how their shared obsession with measuring the body more effortlessly led to SAVA's founding and what it really looks like to push through years of scientific failure in order to build a complex medical device platform.We dive into why SAVA manufactures everything in-house, how their micro sensor architecture differs from traditional filament based CGMs and why controlling every layer from chemistry to algorithms is essential if you want to iterate fast on performance. Ren sets out SAVA's long term vision of continuous molecular tracking for everyone, not just people with diabetes, and what could be unlocked once you can monitor many molecules in real time from a single patch.We also talk about regulatory expectations for CGMs, the reality of one way product decisions in medical devices and the difficulty of fundraising for a consumer facing yet highly regulated deep tech company. Ren closes with candid reflections on what he would do differently, how he protects time for family and why working on a problem you truly care about with people you genuinely like is the only way to survive the journey.Timestamps[00:00:21] Origins at Imperial and discovering biosensors[00:01:59] Long horizons, repeated failure and staying in the game[00:03:56] Why SAVA manufactures everything in-house[00:06:46] How SAVA's micro sensor CGM platform actually works[00:09:36] From diabetes to universal molecular health monitoring[00:12:02] Patient experience and CGM adoption in healthcare systems[00:13:43] When CGMs become cheaper than finger-pricks[00:15:15] Misconceptions about CGM and continuous molecular sensing[00:17:21] Why building CGMs is one of the hardest engineering challenges[00:22:54] Fundraising in unconventional deep tech MedTech and advice for foundersConnect with Ren - ⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/circi/⁠Learn more about Sava - ⁠⁠https://www.sava.health/Get in touch with Karandeep Badwal - ⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/karandeepbadwal/ ⁠⁠⁠Follow Karandeep on YouTube - ⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@KarandeepBadwal⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the Podcast

In this episode, we sit down with Efrat Fenigson—independent journalist, public speaker, and host of You're the Voice—for a courageous conversation about sovereignty, power, and the systems that shape human behavior. Drawing from her lived experience growing up in Israel, Efrat speaks openly about identity, collective trauma, propaganda, and the psychological cost of questioning state narratives from within. From there, the conversation quickly widens to examine how control operates at a deeper structural level—through money. Efrat breaks down how the modern fiat monetary system erodes human agency and why Bitcoin represents a radically different model rooted in decentralization and personal sovereignty. This is a nuanced, unsanitized dialogue connecting geopolitics, psychology, sound money and a sober yet inspiring look at what it means to reclaim authority over your life in an age of control.Time Stamps(00:00) Episode Teaser (00:22) Opening Conversation (04:29) Guest Introduction & Personal Journey (09:02) Growing Up in Israel (16:51) Peace Activism and Political Realizations (21:06) Complexities of Israeli-Palestinian Relations (38:52) Understanding Sovereignty (47:51) Fraudulent Fiat Economic System (55:03) Fractional Reserve Banking Explained (01:01:08) Bitcoin…The Solution to Fiat's Failures (01:18:56) Bitcoin's Origins and Global Impact (01:23:50) El Salvador's Bitcoin AdoptionGuest Linkshttps://linktr.ee/efenigson Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

Tudor Christmas wasn't just celebrated at home or in church, it was performed. In this episode of my Tudor Christmas Advent series, we step into the vivid, noisy, emotional world of Christmas mystery plays, public dramas staged in streets, market squares, and churchyards across medieval and early Tudor England. You'll discover: - What mystery plays really were — and why the word “mystery” meant craft, not confusion - How towns like York, Chester, and Coventry brought Christmas to life with pageant wagons and street drama - Why King Herod was played as a terrifying, shouting tyrant - How shepherds' humour made the Nativity relatable to Tudor audiences -  And how one of our most haunting carols, Coventry Carol, comes directly from a Christmas mystery play These plays didn't just tell people the Christmas story, they made them feel it. This video is part of my Tudor Christmas Advent series. If you've enjoyed it, please like, subscribe, and ring the bell so you don't miss tomorrow's episode. Question for you: Would you have watched a Tudor Christmas mystery play, or found it too intense? #TudorChristmas #MysteryPlays #CoventryCarol #TudorHistory #ChristmasHistory #MedievalDrama #BritishHistory #EarlyModernEngland

In this special Christmas episode of the Professor Liberty Podcast, we explore the history behind December 25th and challenge the claim that Christmas is merely a pagan holiday in disguise. Drawing from biblical accounts, Roman history, early Christian writings, and astronomical evidence, your favorite social studies teacher examines when Jesus was likely born and why December 25th became the traditional date. From the Roman census and the birth of John the Baptist to the Star of Bethlehem and ancient planetary alignments, this episode shows that December 25th was not chosen at random but carries deep theological and historical significance. While the exact date of Jesus' birth remains uncertain, the evidence reveals a tradition rooted in early Christianity—not pagan imitation.

**I was recently invited (back) to be a guest on the Mommin' Together podcast to discuss the pagan origins of Christmas! She was kind enough to allow me to upload a copy of the episode for my listeners.The Surprising History of Christmas: Uncovering the Origins of our TraditionsIn this episode of the Mommin' Together podcast, host Michelle Barnett is joined by Chasity Jameson, host of the Ancient Conspiracies podcast, to explore the surprising pagan roots of modern Christmas traditions. The episode dives into the historical origins of Santa Claus, December 25th as a significant date, and various Christmas practices like Christmas trees and gift-giving. They discuss how these elements were woven into Christian celebrations and offer perspectives for believers on how to navigate this information. By examining these traditions, they aim to encourage listeners to align their celebrations more closely with their faith.For more information on the Mommin' Together Podcast:Instagram: @Mommin_TogetherFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1484794095771993For more information on the Ancient Conspiracies Podcast:Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.ancientconspiracies.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FB: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠facebook.com/groups/ancientconspiracies⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram, Truth Social: @ancientconspiraciesYouTube: @ancientconspiracies
