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

2. TITUS'S SIEGE OF JERUSALEM Guest: Professor Barry Strauss Nero's forced suicide in 68 AD and the subsequent chaos confirmed Josephus's prophecy, leading to Vespasian being proclaimed emperor in 69 AD. Vespasian left his son Titus to lay siege to Jerusalem in 70 AD. Though Jerusalem was a strong fortress, the defenders were critically weakened by infighting among three rebel factions and their own destruction of the city's necessary grain supply. 1687

3. SURVIVAL DURING THE SIEGE OF JERUSALEM Guest: Professor Barry Strauss Before the siege of Jerusalem was sealed, two foundational groups fled: Rabbi Yohanan Ben Zakai, smuggled out to Yavneh to establish Rabbinic Judaism, and the followers of Jesus, who went to Pella. Titus focused the Roman assault on the city's weakest point, the northern wall. The overconfident Romans were repeatedly frustrated by Jewish defenders using effective irregular tactics, including raids and undermining siege equipment. 1698

PREVIEW Barry Strauss on Jews Versus Rome and the Siege of Jerusalem. Professor Barry Strauss discusses his new book, Jews Versus Rome, chronicling the rebellion of the Jews and their extreme defiance of Roman power in the first century. The core event is the siege of Jerusalem in 69 to 70 AD, when Titus, the son of Vespasian, was charged with defeating the city after his father departed to become emperor. Jerusalem was the religious center and a formidable fortress, impregnable on three sides, yet possessed a critical weakness: its northern wall. Despite the difficult siege ahead, the rebels believed they could withstand it, having laid up supplies, amassed considerable food stores, and secured access to a natural water source. Guest: Professor Barry Strauss. Retry

The venerable city of Neuss between Cologne and Düsseldorf was founded in 16 BC as a Roman army camp, making it one of the oldest in Germany. Its history is marked by the usual mix of feuds with its archepiscopal overlord and the establishment of a trading and pilgrimage hub. Despite its Roman remains, the impressive church of St. Quirinius, and proximity to where I grew up, Neuss may never have appeared on the History of the Germans Podcast, had it not sustained a 10 month long siege in 1474/1475.A siege, even a brutal and prolonged one is not sufficiently unusual to be included in the show. But this one merits almost a whole episode. Tales of the heroic defense of a small town on the Rhine against an overbearing foe intent on wiping out their way of life, coalesced the empire in a way it had not come together since the days of Frederick Barbarossa. A watershed was crossed, under the leadership of an emperor who was more surprised than anyone to be put at the head of the resistance.And that is not all, in this episode we will also cover the very first trial for war crimes ever that took place in another small town in the same year 1474.

Tara breaks down the latest ICE operation in Florida, highlighting the dangers posed by criminal illegal immigrants and the challenges posed by activist judges releasing them. She then connects immigration policy to the skyrocketing U.S. housing crisis, showing how the influx of millions of legal and illegal immigrants has created a shortage of homes and driven up rent, pushing young Americans out of the market. Tara also examines proposed “solutions” like portable and 50-year mortgages and H-1B visa misuse, arguing that current policies dilute American jobs and threaten generational wealth. This episode is a deep dive into law, policy, and the economics of immigration, exposing how mismanagement affects safety, affordability, and the future of the American dream.

The Superhero Show #607Cadillacs and Dinosaurs: SiegeThe Superhero Show: Cadillacs and Dinosaurs — “Siege” (Episode 1.04)This week on The Superhero Show, the hosts rev their engines and dive into episode 1.04, “Siege,” of Cadillacs and Dinosaurs. In this fierce chapter, Jack Tenrec and his team face a full-scale assault on Jack's Garage. As the poachers tighten their grip and alliances fracture, the danger hits close to home.A Calm ShatteredJack patrols the jungle, tracking poacher brothers Hammer, Vice and Wrench as they hunt rare tri-colour jumbucks for the black market. The hosts relish the tension when Jack upends their skirmish with a rifle blast, sets off their bikes and forces them on foot back to their camp. This moment of calm destroys the poachers' bravado and signals a shift in power.Meanwhile, Hannah Dundee arrives at Jack's Garage with a stowaway in tow—Mikla, a former poacher claiming to escape a gang life. It's here the episode pivots. Mikla's sudden appearance coincides with an ominous attack, and the seamless transition from suspicion to chaos keeps the hosts on edge. They probe her motives and the uneasy trust between Jack and his reluctant ally.The Siege UnfoldsAs the Garage comes under siege, Jack, Hannah, Kirgo and Mikla reel from multiple threats: poachers scaling walls, lava launchers malfunctioning, and Hermes the allosauric guardian messing up valves in the worst possible moment. The hosts focus sharply on this sequence, where Jack suits up in an armored lava-clearance rig and descends under volcanic pressure to save the day. They highlight how the setting itself becomes a weapon.With the Garage moat bypassed, the poachers launch grenades and take hostages. Jack and Hannah are forced to surrender—only to fight back in a blaze of molten lava, mammoth-sized creature chaos and cunning teamwork. The hosts emphasize how the action delivers both spectacle and stakes, proving this isn't just another kid's cartoon.Loyalties TestedAs the dust settles, Mikla reveals essential intel: the first strike was only a test and a bigger assault looms from “higher ground.” Hannah nurses doubts, but Jack blames no one. In this quieter moment, the hosts explore the show's deeper message: in a world rebuilt, the line between predator and protector is foggy. Earth's survivors must choose not just who to fight—but how.Final Thoughts: Siege Raises the Stakes“Siege” stands out as a standout episode of Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, blending pulpy action with emotional undertones and wild set-pieces. The hosts conclude that this episode doesn't just show Jack defending his home—it shows him defining it. Hyper-action, moral challenge and high-voltage thrills collide in a garage under fire and a hero against impossible odds.Whether you're here for dinosaurs, Cadillacs, or the human fight for balance, The Superhero Show invites you along for the ride.

Ja, dies ist eine dieser Folgen, die sich FC-Reporter Guido Ostrowski komplett anders vorgestellt hat. Logisch, wer will schon gerne eine Derby-Niederlage besprechen. Aber auch das gehört eben zum Fußball dazu oder um es mit den Worten von Lukas Kwasniok zu sagen: "Das Wichtigste ist, Siege mit Stolz zu tragen und Niederlagen mit Anstand zu akzeptieren." Wird gemacht, beim Thema "VAR" wird es dann allerdings richtig schwierig. Der zweifache Videobeweis im Borussia Park ist nicht nur für Guido Anlass genug für eine deutliche Abrechnung...

Der FC Bayern ist nicht zu stoppen: 16 Siege nach 16 Spielen machen mittlerweile auch der europäischen Konkurrenz ein wenig Angst. Den amtierenden Champions-League-Sieger Paris Saint-Germain besiegten die Münchner trotz 45-minütiger Unterzahl auswärts mit 2:1. Zu Beginn der Saison in der Königsklasse hatte Klubweltmeister FC Chelsea mit 0:3 gegen den deutschen Rekordmeister verloren. Die Dominanz der Bayern trägt einen Namen: Vincent Kompany. „Es sind nicht nur die Neuzugänge, sondern auch das, was er aus denen macht, die schon da waren“, sagt Almuth, die auch von der Art und Weise begeistert ist, wie der Belgier mit komplizierten Personalien und Situationen umgeht. Was ebenfalls sein Verdienst ist, sagt Roman: „Dass er die vermeintlichen, potenziellen Nebenkriegsschauplätze im Griff hat.“

Trump brings Gaza war crimes home to US autistics.Using starvation to subjugate people is a war crime, whether at the point of a gun or denying SNAP benefits.November 1st, SNAP halted. Healthcare funding threatened. Social Security could vanish, Trump warns. 42 million Americans face losing food assistance. Not someday—right now.A nation that uses starvation on its own civilians? I'm no lawyer, but I'd argue that's tantamount to war on its own people. Any day of the week. And I consider it a crime in its own right, even if courts reserve “war crime” for armed conflict.I can hear it already: “You're being dramatic. That's hyperbolic. You can't compare domestic policy to Gaza.”Watch me.Medieval siege techniques. Surround them and starve them out. Whether it's Gaza or Indiana.What's Actually Happening?The Trump administration threatens benefits we count on to exist as political leverage during government shutdown negotiations. Support promised to the American public for decades, transformed into weapons to get what Trump wants.Here's what international law says about that. The Rome Statute explicitly classifies starvation of civilians as a war crime, a crime against humanity. Around the world, deliberately depriving people of food for political gain—that's defined as genocide.These aren't my words, they're international law.Gaza starvation: internationally recognized war crime.SNAP weaponization: They can call it an unfortunate policy choice, but it's the same tactic, just a different population. Location doesn't change that. Denying food to gain power simply is withholding food, withholding life for power. They're not negotiating. They're holding a gun to our heads.Why Autistics First?Numbers tell you everything you need to know. Autistics face an 85% unemployment rate. So we depend a lot on SNAP—I do. Most of us depend on Medicaid to see our doctors, and many of us are disabled, unable to work. So SSI dependency just to live, it's a high priority.The government knows exactly who gets hit when they pull these levers: autistics, neurodivergents. We're the most vulnerable first. We have the least political power of any minority group, I think.And look at the language they use. “Efficiency.” “Streamlining.” “Reducing dependency.” It's the old Nazi “useless eaters” logic dressed up in techno-bro management appeal. Killing off the weak, dusted off and wrapped in budget terminology. We're the testing ground, that's how it always works. Start with disabled people. Normalize the tactic. See who complains, see if you can get away with it. Then expand to the next group.We're the canaries in the coal mine. We die first. And we're already choking.The Roll Call of History: Every Empire Does ThisWant to know how I know this is a war crime? Because every failing empire does exactly this. Brings colonial violence home. Every. Single. One.France took torture techniques from Algeria, brought them home for Paris riot control. The U.S. militarized policing in the Philippines, deployed in Ferguson. Britain did the exact same thing: tactics used in the Irish colonies, in India, that came home to British workers as labor disputes escalated.This isn't speculation. This is documented history. The Ottoman Empire in its death throes: Armenian genocide, Greek genocide, Assyrian genocide. Ancient Rome. Ancient Egypt. Every single one.The pattern is always the same. It starts with unpopular groups: Jews, immigrants, disabled people, people they call “defective,” “foreign,” “unproductive.” Test on them first, see if anyone notices, see if anyone stops you, then expand.Scholars have a term for this: the “boomerang effect.” Or “internal colonialism”—when you apply colonial logic to your own people. Black radical thinkers saw this first, by the way. They recognized the pattern decades ago.The Gaslighting Ends HereSo when someone says “You're being dramatic”? No. I'm being historically accurate.“That's hyperbolic.” The Rome Statute disagrees. I can read you the details.“You can't compare domestic policy to war.” Every empire in history already done that. They already made that comparison for me.We're not comparing tragedies. “Who's suffering more than who?” We're recognizing tragedy.When policy debates require trigger warnings like this article, like this livestream, maybe it's not policy.When negotiations threaten survival, maybe they're not negotiations.When efficiency means starvation, maybe it's not efficient. It's fucking violence.That need for trigger warnings says it's violence. Not discourse. We're not being fragile. We're being informed. We're watching it happen in real time. Hell, it's obvious in every bowl of beans I eat instead of a hell of heavily tariffed hamburger.What We DoLiving through empire in decline: deadly for many. But here's what we do.We call it as we see it. We refuse sanitized language.When they say “policy,” we call it violence. Because starvation kills as sure as a bullet. Just slower.When they say “negotiate,” we name it hostage taking for the purpose of political power.When they say “efficiency,” we shout starvation tactics.It's medieval siege by budget. No catapults. No cannons. Just clean spreadsheets.We document the pattern. We recognize what's really happening while it's happening. We tell the truth about what we're witnessing. And we survive together.How? Let's talk again soon on meaningful resistance, survival, and mutual aid. I'm nearly ready to share my thoughts next week in my next livestream.The Picture I Want to Leave You WithTrump brings Gaza war crimes home. Not as a metaphor—as a moral diagnosis.Same tactics, similar intent, different location, same fucking outcome.Starvation is starvation. Siege is siege. Death is death. Even if the law reserves “war crimes” for battlefields and guys in uniform.Starting with autistics, starting with disabled people, starting with poor people, starting with anyone who needs to eat and expanding from there. Because that's how it always works.That's not drama, not autistic overreaction. If I ever hear that again—fuck the gaslighting we've lived through all our damn fucking lives.That's international law in definitions. That's documented history in its examples. That's pattern recognition across eras. We're just the ones recognizing it first.ClosingListen, that's all I got really. This episode, it's why I do these livestreams. Why I need this community, you guys.Because when they gaslight us, we need witnesses. We need truth.When they isolate us, we need each other.When they threaten our survival, we need to document what's happening in real time.See you next week around the same time. We'll talk resistance, mutual aid. What actually works when the empire comes home.Till then?Stay weird.Stay fierce.Stay alive.Key Timestamps for Chapter Markers:* 0:00 - Opening Thesis* 1:08 - What's Actually Happening* 2:23 - Why Autistics First* 3:19 - The Roll Call of History* 6:35 - The Gaslighting Ends Here* 7:50 - What We Do#AutisticAF Out Loud Newsletter is a reader-supported publication.

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.

Tara dives deep into the twin crises shaping modern America: the threat to free speech under proposed global censorship regimes and the unprecedented social pressures facing Gen Z in a world where every private moment can go viral. From Barack Obama's calls for “new journalism” to international efforts targeting platforms like 4chan, to the chilling effects of viral humiliation on young men's dating lives, Tara exposes the stakes for freedom, privacy, and society's next generation. When censorship and digital shaming collide, freedom and trust hang by a thread. In this episode, Tara examines the growing threats to free speech in the U.S., highlighting efforts by political and global actors to establish a worldwide censorship regime using social media platforms. She details meetings involving Barack Obama, John Brennan, European officials, and tech leaders, revealing plans for a centralized international oversight of digital content. Simultaneously, Tara explores how social media is reshaping the lives of young men, who now face public humiliation for everyday interactions, from asking someone out to private conversations. These viral moments create mistrust, defensiveness, and an erosion of personal confidence, while the fear of exposure fundamentally alters social behavior. Tara connects the dots between political censorship and digital culture, illustrating how both are transforming freedom, privacy, and social trust for all generations.

What did it take to end the War for Independence? When we think of the American Revolution's final chapter, we think of the Siege of Yorktown. Between September 28 and October 19, 1781, British forces endured a siege by the Franco-American forces that ultimately led to a triumphant Franco-American victory, British recognition of American independence, and the birth of a new nation. But the real story of the Yorktown victory is far more layered. It involved international alliances, enslaved people seeking freedom, and years of hardship. Today, we're revisiting the events of October 1781 as we revisit Episode 333. In this episode, we join three historians–Marcus Nevius, Ed Ayers, and Gretchen Johnson– who help us uncover: How American, French, and British forces converged at Yorktown The vital role of the French army and navy in securing victory And what this final battle looked like on the ground for soldiers, civilians, and Black Virginians alike Show Notes: https://www.benfranklinsworld.com/333 EPISODE OUTLINE00:00:00  Introduction00:03:59 Siege of Yorktown00:05:13 The British Military Approach00:08:50 The Importance of Virginia's Regions00:18:57 The Impact of War on Yorktown00:28:03 Dunmore's Proclamation and the British Strategy00:33:44 The British Invasion of Virginia00:48:00 Aftermath and Legacy00:55:49 ConclusionRECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODES

LONDINIUM 91 A.D.: Roman Siege Tactics and Russian Attrition: A Study in Political Vengeance and War Strategy Gaius (John Batchelor) and Germanicus (Michael Vlahos) Gaius and Germanicus open by discussing fresh swan meat in Londinium before moving to the main topic of political vengeance, noting that Romans recognize it while American editorialists are discovering it afresh due to Emperor Trump. They review the war in Ukraine, where Russians are employing a strategy of attrition to achieve the collapse of the Ukrainian army. Germanicus explains that Ukraine's strategy of refusing to retreat has led to disproportionate losses and the encirclement of up to 10,000 soldiers in "cauldrons" near Pokrovsk and Kupyansk. Gaius relates this situation to successful Roman siege tactics used at Carthage and Jerusalem. Historically, the reward for Roman soldiers breaking a siege was to ransack the city, causing the prices of gold and slaves to plummet. Germanicus asserts, however, that the Russians are taking pains to signal that leveling cities is not their way, emphasizing mercy due to the kinship between the two related peoples. The hosts also mention the delay of a summit involving Vladimir Putin and Mr. Trump's proposed Greco-Roman style building at the White House. 80 BCE SULLA SACKS ROME

The Book and Its Premise (Order Eric's new Book HERE!) Under Siege is presented as Eric Trump’s account of what is “the greatest governmental corruption this nation has ever seen.” Trump and is family were victims of political persecution, media bias, and systemic weaponization of institutions. Claims of Government “Weaponization” Eric Trump accuses the DOJ, FBI, and state-level prosecutors (Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, Jack Smith, etc.) of targeting his family for political reasons. He recounts the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago as an overreach and describes it as “staged” and politically motivated. Mentions being “the most subpoenaed man in history,” claiming to have received over 100 subpoenas. Debanking and Corporate Retaliation Eric Trump says that hundreds of bank accounts belonging to Trump businesses and affiliates were closed due to political pressure. Specific banks named: Capital One, JP Morgan, Bank of America, First Republic. He frames this as an example of private-sector “weaponization” against conservatives. Financial and Legal Struggles The family spent around $400 million defending themselves from investigations and lawsuits. Describes how banks, courts, and insurance companies were allegedly pressured to avoid doing business with the Trump Organization. Personal Reflections and Family Dynamics Speaks warmly of his father as a calm, strong leader under pressure and a strict but loving parent. Emphasizes a childhood of discipline, work ethic, and learning through labor rather than wealth. Contrasts the Trump family’s “moral integrity” with Hunter Biden’s alleged misconduct. Political and Cultural Commentary Denounces DEI initiatives, “wokeness,” and progressive policies as threats to American values. Frames the Trump family’s experience as symbolic of a broader national struggle between conservatives and “corrupt elites.” Presents cryptocurrency as a form of financial freedom against institutional control.
