1/4 Jews Versus Rome: Two Centuries of Rebellion and the Cost of Diaspora Revolts Professor Barry Strauss of Cornell University, Professor Emeritus and Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, discusses the history of Jewish resistance against the Roman Empire as detailed in his book Jews versus Rome. Following the destruction of the Temple and Jerusalem, rebellion continued among Jewish communities scattered across the Roman world. 1888 SULLA SACKING ROME
CONTINUED 2/4 During Emperor Trajan's campaign against the Parthian Empire, a widespread and coordinated "diaspora revolt" erupted in 115–117 AD, beginning in Libya and spreading to Egypt, Cyprus, and Mesopotamia. This was a major challenge, forcing Trajan to divert a legion, as Egypt was the empire's strategic breadbasket. The revolt was spurred by the insulting Jewish tax, the fiscus Judaicus, paid to Jupiter, and the frustrated expectation that the Temple would be rebuilt within 70 years. The Jewish community in Alexandria, possibly the largest Jewish city in the ancient world, was wiped out during the suppression, a disaster for diaspora Judaism. 1614 SACK OF TROY

PREVIEW Professor Barry Strauss discusses the Bar Kokhba Revolt, which occurred in the 130s to 140s, long after the Temple fell in 70 AD. The main thing motivating the revolt was the Roman declaration that the Temple would never be rebuilt and that Jerusalem would never again be a Jewish capital. Rome maintained its vast empire through brutal intimidation. While the Romans were brutal, the sources suggest the Jews were not intimidated, though there was some disagreement among rabbis about the usefulness of the revolts.

1. JOSEPHUS AND THE SIEGE OF JODAPATA Guest: Professor Barry Strauss The Jewish revolt against Rome, starting in 66 AD, is primarily chronicled by Josephus, a leader of the revolt and later historian. Josephus commanded the defense of Jodapata against General Vespasian. After defeat, Josephus survived a mass suicide pact, surrendered, and convinced Vespasian not to kill him by predicting he would become Roman emperor. The rebels were inspired by previous victories like the Maccabees. 1922 GAZA
In this week's episode of Across the Pond, Tate and Connor break down President Trump's latest interview with Laura Ingraham, where he defends the H-1B visa program and sparks debate across the conservative base.

SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWSomething felt different the last forty eight hours. You can sense it when Trump is unraveling, but this time the energy around him is sharper, louder, and more chaotic than anything I have seen in a long while. It is like watching a storm forming in real time.The push to release the Epstein files lit the fuse. I have never seen Trump react this fast or this aggressively to something he keeps insisting is nothing. His behavior tells a very different story and the tension around it is impossible to ignore.There is a pressure building around him that feels new. Conversations are happening. People are choosing their words carefully. And you can feel the weight of something closing in even if no one will say it out loud yet. In this episode I walk you through the tone and the temperature of that shift.Right in the middle of all of this Trump suddenly turns his attention to nuclear weapons. Not policy talk. Not strategy talk. Something stranger. Something that made me stop in my tracks and ask what exactly is going on behind the scenes. You will hear the moment it happened.His comments, his confusion, his urgency, the way he mixes up government departments and demands the impossible, it all paints a picture of a man who is nowhere near grounded. It is not normal behavior from someone who claims everything is under control.There is a mood around him right now that feels unsettled. You can hear it in the voices of the people trying to explain what he said. You can hear it in the hesitation. You can hear it in the way everyone around him chooses their phrasing like they are stepping around glass.In this episode I take you inside that atmosphere. The spike in panic. The strange nuclear talk. The rising tension surrounding the Epstein documents. The feeling that something much bigger is happening just under the surface.This is not a week of normal headlines. This is something else entirely.If you want to understand the tone of the last two days and why so many people are suddenly uneasy, this is the episode to hear.AWorldGoneMadPodcast@gmail.com

Why People Stop Trusting ScienceWhy do so many people reject science—even when the facts are clear?We are joined by Hillary Shulman, a communication scholar at Ohio State University, to learn about science populism—the growing belief that science is an elite enterprise disconnected from everyday life.They explore how distrust of experts, polarization and science, and skepticism and belief shape public understanding. Shulman explains why facts alone don't persuade, how both liberals and conservatives can fall into science populism, and what it takes to rebuild trust in scientific institutions.Text me your feedback and leave your contact info if you'd like a reply (this is a one-way text).

Former Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy is in for Jim on Tuesday's 3 Martini Lunch. Join Andy and Greg as they discuss the fate of Obamacare subsidies, how to stop Chinese nationals from buying land near U.S. military bases, and the leftist revolt (again) vs. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.First, as Democrats demand the extension of Obamacare premium subsidies, Andy and Greg explain how they were supposedly a "temporary" provision during the pandemic and should be scrapped. But Andy points out that the subsidies were another step in the Dems' tireless push for government-run health care, so rooting them out will be very difficult.Next, they react to reports that a convicted Chinese fraudster owns land adjacent to the Missouri Air Force base that's home to the B-2 Stealth Bombers that that targeted Iranian nuclear sites in June. Andy explains how there is some tension in law when it comes to stopping our top foreign adversary from getting so close to our most sensitive sites, but there's something far more important than the courts or Congress when it comes to stopping the Chinese from doing this.Finally, they shed zero tears for Sen. Chuck Schumer as the increasingly left-wing base revolts over how Senate Democrats handled the latest shutdown fight and Schumer's feeble attempts to appease the base through this pointless shutdown left him even more of a pariah in his own party. And as awful as Schumer has been, it's almost certain the next Senate Democratic leader will be even worse.Please visit our great sponsors:OneSkin uses the patented OS-01 Peptide™ designed to keep skin healthier, stronger, and more resilient over time.

For three years following the Russian Revolution, the small South Caucasian country of Georgia was a democracy, but Stalin later ordered the Red Army to invade and to bring the country back under Russian rule. Communist attacks on political opponents, trade unions, cooperatives, and even the church sparked resistance, and an armed uprising broke out across the nation in 1924. It was swiftly crushed, with massacres of thousands, including hostages. Social Democratic and Labor parties across Europe reacted with shock and indignation. Soviet opponents began to describe communism as “red fascism” and their own movement as “democratic socialism.” What followed—including Socialist support for the creation of NATO—resulted from the Georgian uprising and its aftermath. After the Russian invasion of Ukraine a century later, the long-forgotten Georgian experience examined in The August Uprising, 1924: The Georgian Anti-Soviet Revolt and the Birth of Democratic Socialism (McFarland, 2025) seems more relevant than ever.

Revoltă, îmgrijorare dar și întrebări cu privire la vitorul industriei și marketingului. Iată cum a relatat presa internațională deschiderea, miercuri, a primului magazin fizic Shein, într-unul dintre cele mai elegante centre comerciale ale Parisului, galeriile BHV. Le Monde descrie atmosfera de la deschiderea magazinului. ”Clienți convertiți la internet, iubitori de vouchere cadou, și Marie, „clientă BHV de treizeci și cinci de ani” care, confruntată cu această „clientelă neobișnuită”, ne sfătuiește să „fim atenți la geantă”... Toți s-au adunat, toată ziua, la Shein, „pentru a vedea” acest prim magazin parizian al gigantului comerțului electronic, care face titluri cu atât mai mult cu cât brandul este în plină frământare de la dezvăluirea faptului că păpușile cu pornografie infantilă erau de vânzare pe site-ul său”. Time notează că ”noul magazin fizic Shein – primul său din lume – iese în evidență ca o lovitură de ciocan. Citeste siPremieră mondială într-un context polemic: platforma chinezească Shein şi-a deschis primul magazin la Paris (Galerie FOTO) Retailerul chinez, cunoscut pentru gama sa de haine ieftine ultra-fast-fashion și pentru criticile pe care le primește cu privire la practicile sale de muncă și de mediu, este amplasat la etajul șase al unei clădiri vechi de peste un secol din Paris, un oraș renumit pentru moda de lux și pentru o recentă inițiativă ecologică. BHV, magazinul universal din secolul al XIX-lea care găzduiește Shein, se află și vis-à-vis de Primăria Parisului, care a lansat o campanie împotriva retailerului de fast-fashion”. The Spectator Australia deplânge situația. ”Cel mai elegant magazin universal din Paris, BHV Marais, un vast reper art deco, găzduiește acum un brand care întruchipează produsele de unică folosință. Acest lucru a stârnit demonstrații în fața magazinului și a atras critici aspre în presa franceză. Aceasta nu este doar o altă deschidere de magazine, ci o capitulare culturală. Este o dovadă că Parisul, cândva capitala mondială a modei, își închiriază acum sufletul algoritmilor chinezi. Timp de mai bine de un secol, BHV a întruchipat un anumit ideal parizian de lux accesibil, măiestrie, materiale bune și gust discret. Acum vinde poliester de unică folosință. În același timp, magazinele tradiționale de modă ale magazinului se închid unul câte unul: vechii croitori, magazinele de articole din piele, buticurile independente care odinioară defineau districtul Marais”. Și dacă, în loc să urâm Shein, l-am copia la rândul nostru? Este ideea pe care o găsim în ziarul francez de afaceri Les Echos. „Gigantul modei Shein este mai presus de toate un expert în marketing digital care știe cum să analizeze tendințele cererii într-un mod extrem de sofisticat și receptiv. A tras concluzii industriale din acest lucru, bazându-și producția pe o armată de furnizori terți care trebuie să răspundă cu o flexibilitate extremă. În modă, dar și în industrii mult mai grele, cum ar fi sectorul auto, companiile nu au de ales. Vor trebui să se îndrepte către o înțelegere mai detaliată a așteptărilor consumatorilor. Trebuie să scurteze ciclurile de dezvoltare și producție. Și trebuie să se doteze cu mijloacele pentru a-și personaliza și mai mult produsele și serviciile.”

Send us a textGiants fans are sending a message — and this week, it was written across the New Jersey sky. Before kickoff, not one but two planes flew over MetLife Stadium carrying banners aimed at ownership. One read, “Mr. Mara, get well and watch the Giants Nation Show,” and the other pulled no punches: “Mr. Mara, enough is enough. Clean house.”The message was clear — Giants fans have had enough. From empty seats to early exits, frustration is boiling over in Big Blue Nation. We dive deep into what this means for the team, the front office, and the relationship between the franchise and its loyal fans.Then, we tackle the latest Evan Neal trade buzz, after Josina Anderson reported that the Giants had exploratory talks with the Raiders about moving the struggling offensive lineman. What's real, what's smoke, and what's next for a former first-rounder fighting for his spot?Meanwhile, Deonte Banks finds himself under the spotlight after a report from the NY Post claimed he dodged reporters — literally sneaking out after a tough game. Is it immaturity, frustration, or just bad timing? We break down what accountability means in a locker room on the edge.And then, there's the viral postgame presser moment — Coach Brian Daboll being asked if he was crying after the loss. His reaction, the context, and what it says about the emotional toll of this Giants season all get the Goofball treatment.Finally, we wrap up with a full Week 9 NFL recap — every major game, key takeaways, and a few tangents that only the Goofball Army could deliver.From angry skies to locker room whispers, this week had it all — and we're here to break it down with humor, honesty, and a little Giants pain therapy along the way.
The Siege, Starvation, and the Start of the Communard Revolt. Sebastian Smee discusses how during the Prussian siege of Paris, Parisians suffered terribly in the coldest winter on record. Radical Republicans grew furious at the moderate government's failure to defeat the Prussians. When the government surrendered and accepted severe conditions, the radicals decided to revolt. The revolutionaries, gathering in March 1871, seized cannons and established the Commune. The Communards were more libertarian than communist, aiming to democratize society. They were violent immediately, and the government forces retreated to Versailles. Paris found itself besieged again by French government forces directed by Adolphe Thiers.
Paris 1874: The Artistic Revolt Against the Salon and the Birth of Impressionism. Sebastian Smee discusses how on April 15, 1874, an exhibition opened marking the birth of Impressionism. The group, including Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, Sisley, Cézanne, Degas, and Berthe Morisot, set up the show deliberately outside the established Salon. The Impressionists were frustrated by repeated Salon rejections and were in revolt; they wanted to paint contemporary life and fresh landscapes, rejecting the hierarchy and "made-up landscapes." The name Impressionism originated as an insult from a critic, inspired by Monet's painting, Impression, Sunrise. Critics found the paintings unstructured and lacking deep meaning. A crucial figure absent from the exhibition was Édouard Manet, considered the "father of Impressionism," who still believed success required Salon acceptance and saw the Impressionist show as a small, isolated "silo."
Harvey Levin and Mark Geragos dive into Harvey's fiery “OWTA” movement — short for “Out With Their Asses” — aimed at holding Congress accountable for the ongoing government shutdown. Harvey says both parties are to blame for the chaos, calling it “an abomination” that hardworking Americans like air traffic controllers are going unpaid. The guys debate whether this could be the start of a nationwide revolt against political incompetence. Hosts: Harvey Levin & Mark Geragos Learn more about your ad choices.

The Guardian talks to protesters in Nepal, Madagascar and Morocco – as well as Chatham House fellow Dr Nayana Prakash – about the gen Z movements toppling governments across the world
The ICE rioters have had a bad few days as many have messed around and found out, the consequences that is, another Trump win. Newsom continues with his push to be the leader of the democratic party by continuing to talk tough, saying to his democratic peoples that this is a revolution. There is a liberal media civil war happening as some networks are cleaning house and other networks attacking fellow liberal networks, it's crazy and we're here for it. Plus, day 30 of the shutdown, Jennifer Welsh is pure evil, the IRS is too, Brandon Johnson still dumb, and a Prescott Arizona Judge is poopin' in the streets, never a dull moment.
Kenneth G. Appold joins Jana Byars to talk about his new book, Luther and the Peasants: Religion, Ritual, and the Revolt of 1525 (Oxford UP, 2025). The German Peasants' Revolts of 1525 were a defining moment both for the Protestant Reformation and the history of European culture. But while the conflicts are well-studied, they are typically analyzed today from political and socioeconomic perspectives, whereas the protagonists themselves framed them in religious and theological terms. Luther and the Peasants takes these perspectives seriously to offer a novel and timely reinterpretation of the uprisings. A detailed examination of peasants' religious lives reveals commitments to peace, social harmony, and the environment that came into conflict with spiritual priorities of the Protestant Reformation, notably with those of Martin Luther. Drawing on the peasants' own documents, such as the famous manifesto The Twelve Articles, the book provides a thorough re-examination their actions, including their negotiations with lords and their organization into bands and Christian brotherhoods, and a fresh analysis of their behavior in battle. This ritual reconstruction makes peasants' statements and behaviors historiographically legible for the first time, effectively giving voice to an illiterate rural people, and offers new ways of reading Luther's 1525 writings on peasants, which are among his most challenging works. In this context, the 1525 conflict between Luther and the peasants comes to light as the collision of two different religious worlds, each incomprehensible to the other. This, in turn, reveals the important role played by religion in a defining moment of early modern European history. Kenneth G.

Ansley Hutchinson, Tess Menzies, and Meredith Erin from the Boredwalk content team sit down to discuss all the recent(ish) happenings in the U.S., including: • A potential revolt brewing within MAGA, as luminaries such as Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green, Oklahoma governor Kevin Stitt, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski, and others decry the impact of deploying National Guard troops from one state to subjugate law-abiding citizens and legal immigrants in another state, covering up child abusers, and driving up costs via tariffs and the expiration of health insurance subsidies • Ongoing threats against citizens in states engaging in peaceful protests against the regime's authoritarian activities • The moral schism between those on the left and those on the right and their respective perceptions thereof Our hosts briefly check in on the latest dispatch from Troll-sylvania, this week's sick burn coming from someone trying (and failing) to insult members of our team by accusing us of sounding like we "must've went to college," which is hilarious on two counts: Thinking that a college education means you're stupid The incorrect grammar baked into the unsuccessful insult In an effort to take things out on a high note, our hosts wrap up the episode by trading answers to questions pulled from our Delve Deck conversation card sets! This week we answer the questions "who's been the worst influence on you?", "what is your worst habit?", and "what is the best feeling?" Thanks for stopping by to hang out, commiserate, and (hopefully) laugh with us!

Episode 4870: Revolt Of The Luddites
When Palestinian Arabs rose up against the British in 1936, what repressive tactics were used to quell the revolt? Who was the WW2 hero “Bomber” Harris, and why did he bomb Palestinians in the 1930s? How did Christians, Muslims and Jews who had once co-existed in the region turn against each other in a divisive civil war? William and Anita are joined once again by Caroline Elkins, author of Legacy of Violence: A History of the British Empire, to discuss how unexpected characters from the web of British imperial violence appear in Palestine during the Revolt of 1936-1939.
