The Catiline Conspiracy and the Perils of Invincibility. Guest Author: Josiah Osgood. The rivalry between Cicero and Catiline represented a clash between a "new man" and an established aristocrat. Catiline was a brave soldier from an ancient family who felt humiliated after losing the consular election to the newcomer Cicero. As the economic situation in Italy worsened due to a credit crisis, Catiline adopted a populist platform, calling for debt reform and the cancellation of loans. Cicero, who was aligned with the financial elite of Rome, viewed Catiline's plans as a threat to the republic's stability. When Catiline lost a subsequent race, he became desperate and organized a group of fashionable young men to support a conspiracy. Cicero used an extensive network of spies to monitor these developments, fueled by his own justified paranoia. He eventually denounced Catiline in the Senate, leading to a showdown where Catiline fled to lead an army. Although Catiline died in battle, the fallout from the conspiracy would eventually lead to Cicero's greatest political crisis. Cicero believed this moment was his peak, marking his place in history as the savior of the republic. 4CARTHAGE

A solid transition plan does not guarantee a clean landing. Guest Taamir Ransome left the Army with advanced education, real-world experience, and a strong résumé, but he still felt the loss of identity, purpose, and daily mission after taking off the uniform. This conversation follows Taamir from joining the Army after 9/11, serving in the 82nd Airborne, moving into EOD, supporting special operations, and becoming the first Black Tier 1 EOD operator. From there, the focus turns to the part of service that follows veterans home: the pressure, the silence, the missing pack, and the struggle to explain combat stress to people who only know the military through movies. Taamir also breaks down ideas from his book Mind of a Soldier, including why the uniform is not your identity, why veterans need people who will call them out when they are slipping, why "thank you for your service" can shut down a better conversation, and why filing for benefits or walking into a VFW can be part of fighting for yourself. This episode gives veterans a practical reminder that help exists, but you may have to approach it the same way you approached the mission: gather information, find the right people, and take the next step. Timestamps: 00:07:13 - Transition looked strong, but still hit hard 00:11:53 - The uniform is not your identity 00:15:51 - Why veterans must fight for themselves 00:19:51 - Why PTSD may not explain everything 00:22:36 - Why combat can be hard to leave Links & Resources Veteran Suicide & Crisis Line: Dial 988, then press 1 Website: https://blog.sixeight.io Follow Taamir Ransome on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ransomemindofasoldier Follow Taamir Ransome on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/taamir-ransome
In a special investigation on a "revolution" that has taken place over the past three years, Haaretz reporters Yarden Michaeli, Matan Golan and Yaniv Kubovich detailed the push to restore and drastically expand Israeli presence in the northern West Bank that was part of former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's Gaza disengagement plan in 2005. On the Haaretz Podcast, Michaeli discusses how the settler movement and far-right politicians have spent the 20 years since the disengagement took place planning how to execute their "return" to four West Bank settlements located in the largest contiguous area of Palestinian population in the area. With the ascent of the most far-right government in history in 2022, members of the movement have used their power and influence in what is essentially "the settlers' government" to "return big time," Michaeli said. In the newly published Haaretz investigation, "Undoing History," Michaeli and his team reveal how 18 new settlements and eight new army bases are cutting through the largest contiguous Palestinian population in the West Bank. The comprehensive effort includes military deployments, new bases and checkpoints, road construction, land expropriations, the displacement of more than 40,000 residents from three refugee camps and the terrorizing of daily Palestinian life in what senior military officials warn could destabilize an already volatile region. Every aspect of the plan, Michaeli warned, is "bad news" and "harmful" to the Palestinians living there, and that the infrastructure in place "will be very hard to remove" – undermining the Oslo Accords and the possibility of a two-state solution.

Shattering the Myth of Hessian Invincibility at the Battle of Trenton. Guest: Professor Richard Bell. King George III rented 30,000 German soldiers, known as Hessians, to crush the American insurgency, leading to widespread patriot terror. Washington's victory at Trenton was a crucial symbolic blow that proved these "savage cutthroats" were human and defeatable. Following their capture, Hessian prisoners were sent to Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where they were encouraged to desert or defect to the American cause. This strategy resulted in 5,000 desertions, with many Hessians eventually becoming naturalized citizens and even contributing to early American culture, such as writing the unofficial national anthem. 518181

In this episode of Tales of the Night, members of the military share some of the most unsettling experiences they had during their night shifts. In the first story, a soldier stationed in the mountains of Mexico discovers why there's a guard post that no one wants to man. Deep in the forest, some sentries claim to have heard the laughter of a woman moving among the treetops… too high for anyone to be up there. Next, we travel to Ecuador, where a recruit recalls a night shift at a barracks surrounded by a forest marked by soldier suicides and past executions. The instructors' warnings seemed exaggerated… until a voice in the darkness began calling him by his rank. The third story takes place at that same barracks. During a foggy early morning, a soldier is relieved early by a comrade… or so he thinks. Hours later, he discovers that this comrade never left the dormitory. And to close the episode, a story submitted by a community member from Tabasco. It all began with a strange encounter his grandfather had decades ago near a trail. Since then, something seems to have stayed with his family… something that still resurfaces today. Turn off the light, get comfortable… and let yourself be carried away by these new Tales of the Night.

From there, we dig into the film's distinctive visuals and its more internal, character-led perspective, looking closely at the arcs, relationships, and themes that come up across its many loops.This week's storytelling tip is about third-act constriction: how narrowing a protagonist's options, space, and agency can intensify tension and force decisive character choices.Other stories we're enjoying include: Zerocalcare (Books), The Serpent and the Wings of Night (Book), Interview with the Vampire (Netflix), Love Through a Prism (Netflix), The Art of Sarah (Netflix), My Demon (Netflix), Cannon Busters (Netflix), Invincible (Amazon Prime), Yumi and the Nightmare Painter (Book), Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 (Disney+).Connect with Lara online:Website: https://wipcomics.co.ukinQ!

Yes, Cogforts are cool…Dan has been enlightened. As for the rest of the Cities Battletome, another solid delivery. We really enjoyed discussing all aspects of this tome, from Traits to Artifacts to Units to Armies/Regiments of Renown. However, Brendan warns that this is a very complex book that will take a lot of study and practice to get the most out of. Conversely, very rewarding and powerful once mastered.

Fields of SoulsHow a Politician, a Soldier, and a Footballer Saved Lives Without Ever MeetingIntroduction: The Heroes Nobody TrustedThe world often celebrates heroes after their victories, but rarely while they are fighting their battles.People trusted celebrities more than leaders. People trusted rumors more than facts. People trusted appearances more than character.In different corners of the world lived three individuals who had never met and would probably never meet.One was a politician.One was a soldier.One was a footballer.The strange thing was that all three carried the same burden:They wanted to save lives, but nobody believed in them.The politician was accused of seeking power.The soldier was accused of serving violence.The footballer was accused of chasing fame and money.Yet through their actions, millions of souls would be touched.Their names became whispers of hope in places they had never visited.And their stories became proof that sometimes the greatest impact is made by people the world misunderstands.
The deadly back-and-forth between Hezbollah and Israel has the potential to scuttle the U.S.-Iran agreement. Many of the Israeli soldiers are reservists, called up again to fight Israeli adversaries at great personal cost. Nick Schifrin met one Israeli officer on the border in March and recently spoke with him again after the latest fighting with Hezbollah came close to claiming his life.

Host Clay Newcomb continues his personal exploration of the Civil War with historian J.D. Huitt of The History Underground YouTube channel. J.D. surprises Clay with historical documentation of his own third-great-grandfather, Thomas Newcomb, a Confederate soldier from southwest Arkansas. As they continue through the history of the war, Clay attempts to answer one of the most challenging questions in American history: Why did ordinary people choose to fight? The search for answers leads Clay and J.D. to the Fayetteville National Cemetery and the graves of Union soldiers who were scalped after the Battle of Pea Ridge. From there, they dive into the overlooked story of Native Americans in the Civil War, exploring why thousands of Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Seminole soldiers sided with the Confederacy and the remarkable story of Stand Watie, the last Confederate general to surrender.

History often remembers the invasion: the beaches, the Soldiers, and the first waves crashing ashore on D-Day. But in the days before Allied forces reached Normandy, another battle was unfolding behind closed doors. A battle of judgment, uncertainty, and leadership under immense pressure. In this episode of Army Matters, LTG (Ret.) Leslie Smith sits down with filmmaker Anthony Maras, director, co-writer, editor, and producer of Pressure, now in theaters. This historical thriller focuses on the 72 tense hours before D-Day and the difficult decisions that faced General Dwight D. Eisenhower and meteorologist Captain James Stagg. The film examines a rarely considered side of history: decision making in times of uncertainty with millions of lives hanging in the balance. Known for building tension through films rooted in real events, including Hotel Mumbai, Maras discusses leadership under emotional pressure, how to make slow-moving weather patterns thrilling, and what really happened in the moments leading up to D-Day.

Heights High 100 Years 100 years ago, back when gas cost 23 cents and the president was Calvin Coolidge, Cleveland Heights High School at Cedar and Lee Roads was constructed. Thousands of alumni and guests from around the country and beyond will be returning to the Heights to celebrate this milestone, and participate in a three-day festival this weekend hosted by the Heights School Foundation. Part of the goal of the festival is to help raise money for the district, which announced last month that it is needs to make at least $5 million in budget cuts over the next two years due to expected revenue losses. We'll spend time on Wednesday's "Sound of Ideas" talking about the role the school has played in the lives of so many over the last century, preview the weekend of festivities, and look towards the future of the district, which has churned out a host of prominent alumni like NFL brothers Travis & Jason Kelce and the Mitchells Ice Cream brothers, Pete & Mike Mitchell. Guests: - Laura Loebl, Executive Director, Heights Schools Foundation, Class of 1987 - Jayla Scruggs, Class of 2026 - Kathy Blackman, Owner, Grog Shop/B Side Lounge, Class of 1986 - Liz Kirby, Superintendent, Cleveland Heights-University Heights School District Juneteenth Celebrations Juneteenth is coming up this Friday, marking five years since then-President Joe Biden made the day a federal holiday. The holiday signifies the day in 1865 where slaves in Texas were informed of their freedom more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed. Many communities in Northeast Ohio are commemorating the holiday Friday. We'll highlight some of those events for the rest of the show and learn more about the origins of Juneteenth. Guests: - Talise Campbell, Artistic Director of Djapo Cultural Arts Institute - Greg Palumbo, Executive Director, Cuyahoga County's Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument - Tameka Ellington, Ph.D., Curator for Black History, McKinley Presidential Museum and Library

Can Britain still defend itself? It sounds like the sort of question once heard in gloomy pubs from men who owned atlases and distrusted decimalisation. Yet here we are, asking it seriously.In this episode of Mark and Pete, we look at Britain's armed forces, the shrinking Army, shortages of personnel, ageing equipment, thin ammunition stocks, delayed defence spending and the uncomfortable possibility that the United Kingdom has spent decades assuming somebody else would deal with the unpleasant bits.Britain still has nuclear weapons, aircraft carriers, submarines, Typhoon jets, intelligence capabilities and capable servicemen and women. This is not a story about helplessness. It is, however, a story about whether a country can keep cutting, postponing and reorganising defence while still expecting the machinery to work when needed. Governments have become fond of strategic reviews. Soldiers, one suspects, would also quite like ammunition.Pete and Mark discuss whether the British Army is now too small, whether the Royal Navy has enough ships, how drone warfare has changed the battlefield, and why conflict is no longer confined to tanks crossing borders. Cyberattacks, sabotage, undersea cables, satellites, energy infrastructure and misinformation all belong to the defence of the realm now. The castle walls have become invisible, which makes neglecting them wonderfully easy.There is also the moral question. A nation cannot praise its armed forces on ceremonial occasions, send them into danger, and then house families badly, delay procurement and hope recruitment improves by magic.The episode takes its theme from Psalm 127: “Except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.” That verse does not excuse poor preparation. Quite the opposite. The watchman must still watch. The city must still be guarded. But national security cannot finally rest in weapons, budgets, speeches or polished men standing beside flags.Can Britain still defend itself? Probably. But “probably” is not usually the word one wants printed across a defence policy.
The Rapper Ye, formerly know as Kanye West is returning to Chicago to perform concerts on September 3rd and 4th. Ye generated several controversies when he started making antisemitic and bigoted remarks in 2022. Last January, Ye took out a full-page ad in The Wall Street Journal to apologize for the comments. However, his concerts in France, Italy and Poland this year have been cancelled, citing concerns over Ye's alleged antisemitism.
Pulaski is often built up into an almost mythic figure who represents patriotism, bravery, freedom, independence, and the U.S. as a melting pot. a nation of immigrants.

Originally released September 15, 2025. During the Civil War, hundreds of people assigned female at birth served in male disguise. Some did it out of patriotism, some for love, and for others, it was about living as the gender they knew themselves to be. In this episode, we uncover the stories of Albert D.J. Cashier, Lyons Wakeman, Frank Thompson, Samuel Blalock, Mollie “Melvin” Bean, and Mary “John” Burns — individuals who challenged 19th-century gender norms and risked everything to serve as the men they truly were. Then we chat with Comedian, Kitty Long. Did you know The Internet Says It's True is now a book?

I'd love to hear your thoughts - send me a text hereWorld War II continues in Europe and the Pacific, while Bob Dole continues to train on the home front and wonders if he will ever make it overseas, like his younger brother Kenny who is an experienced combat veteran by summer 1944. When Dole gets another chance to attend OCS and become an officer, he jumps at it - and this time he gets a class slot. The Army has a shortage of lieutenants and needs to quickly train more. Dole is happy to replace an LT but never stops to ask why so many need to be replaced.
What if leadership isn't about having all the answers?What if success isn't determined by outcomes alone?And what if the most important lessons in life are the ones nobody ever teaches you?In this episode of Be All You Can Be MSC, I sit down with recently retired Command Sergeant Major Erano "Buma" Bumanglag, a senior executive and Army leader whose 31-year career spanned Special Operations, Army Medicine, the Pentagon, disaster response, and Joint Task Force–Civil Support under U.S. Northern Command and NORAD.Our conversation explores the realities of leadership at every level from junior Soldiers to senior executives and the life principles that helped shape his journey.We discuss:▪️ Why senior leaders don't have all the answers▪️ Emotional intelligence versus rank▪️ The relationship between officers and senior enlisted leaders▪️ Learning from failure instead of fearing it▪️ Tactical versus strategic leadership▪️ The power of humility and removing ego▪️ Why relationships matter more than credentials▪️ His "4 Fs" philosophy: Faith, Family, Fitness, and Finance▪️ The inspiration behind his book Life Craft Strategies: $h!t You Don't Learn in SchoolOne of my favorite takeaways:"Do the best job you can in the role you have today. Stop chasing the next position and become exceptional where you are."Buma's book is a collection of practical life lessons drawn from decades of leadership experience, self-reflection, and observation. As he describes it, it's about the things we learn through failure, resilience, relationships, and experience—not from a classroom.
Peter Huessy discusses the history of "tactical" nuclear weapons and the 1950s Desert Rock exercises where U.S. troops were exposed to nuclear detonations. He details the health risks soldiers faced and parallels these actions with Sovietmaneuvers, highlighting the "ludicrous" idea of trying to operate militarily in a post-detonation environment.

In this conversation recorded live at Symbolic World, John Heers sits down with Mother Agapia for a deep, unfiltered account of life on the ground in the West Bank: the building of the wall, the expansion of settlements, the targeting of Christian communities, and the complicated, often beautiful relationship between Orthodox Christians and their Muslim neighbors.Mother Agapia is an American Orthodox nun who spent decades living and working in Bethany, Bethlehem, and Jerusalem — running a school where 98% of the students were Muslim Palestinians. What she witnessed about the fate of Christians in the Holy Land is rarely spoken of in Western media.Topics covered:• How Mother Agapia ended up living and working in Palestine for decades• The spiritual geography of the Holy Land and who actually lives there• The Second Intifada and the moment everything changed• Soldiers confiscating crosses and icons at checkpoints — in broad daylight• Christian Zionism: a critique from someone who lived inside the conflict• Why Mother Agapia believes this is now a direct attack on Christianity• Her work in Washington DC and what changed when she returned• The Tucker Carlson interview and the message it carriedThis is not a political debate. It is a first-hand witness testimony from a woman who gave 30 years of her life to the people of Palestine — Christian and Muslim alike.⏱ Timestamps:0:00 – John Heers intro2:40 – Interview begins: How did you get to Jerusalem?10:00 – The geography: "The size of New Jersey"15:00 – Before the wall: life in Bethany22:00 – The Second Intifada and the settlements28:58 – Soldiers at checkpoints: crosses thrown in the garbage33:00 – Tucker Carlson and the Western media narrative36:00 – Christian Zionism: a false theology?40:00 – Raising the alarm: why it's different now42:30 – John Heers closing: wine, words, and the SupraFind this episode on Youtube: __

Here we are, God's daughters, under attack. Every day the enemy attacks with the hopes of distracting us or distancing us from God. That's why we must put on the full armor God has offered us. He doesn't want his girls vulnerable to the devil, he wants us victorious. Last week we studied the first 3 pieces of our God given armor for the spiritual battle: The Belt of Truth The Breastplate of Righteousness The Shoes of Peace Now, it's time for us to pick up our shield. Ephesians 6:16, “In addition to all these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil.” Okay girls, let's learn about this shield and about those fiery arrows coming our way. Roman soldiers had 2 kinds of shields. One was a small, handheld shield. This is not the shield Paul is talking about. Paul is talking about the other type of shield – the one almost as big as a door. This shield was called the scutum (pronounced sk-U-tum). This shield, the sputum was about 4 feet high and 2 feet wide, made of layers of laminated wood, then covered with leather and bound with iron. The shield was big enough for a soldier to crouch behind and be completely protected. You've likely seen the movies where soldiers are carrying these large rectangular shields and when the enemy forces shoot their arrows, the soldiers stand together in formation with their door like shields held tightly ,forming a barrier all around them, in front of them and above them. That's the precise image of our faith as a shield. We are protected, but not only protected, we are enabled to move forward even while under attack. In this formation with their shields fully protecting them on all sides, the army wouldn't just crouch and endure the attack, they would MOVE FORWARD. Forward towards the objective. Forward towards the goal. Forward towards their mission. Forward, even while the enemy attacked. This is the power of our shield of faith. Now, what bout those arrows? Paul says the devil shoots “fiery arrows” at us. Soldiers in these days would often dip their arrows into a flammable liquid, then light them on fire before launching them at their enemy like a missile. AND THAT IS SATAN'S STRATEGY AGAINST US. Fiery, blazing arrows. His objective is to destroy you and he'll use every single thing at his disposal to do so. Don't be so naive to think he won't come after you. Scripture says he's “like a roaring lion”, and honey, lions don't care if you're cute, they don't care if you're happy, they don't care if you're rich, they don't care if you've got a whole family depending on you … lions want to kill you. Period. You have been under attack. No doubt, it's been happening. Even just this past week, fiery arrows were flying at you. Let me help you identify them: Arrow 1: Tempt you to sin Arrow 2: Get you to ignore the things that would help you Arrow 3: Make you miserable Arrow 4: Make you doubt Arrow 5: Make you settle Remember when you just ignored praying about it? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you didn't make time to open your Bible? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you thought it wasn't a big deal and you could hide it? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you felt so tired, so defeated and so discouraged that you just sat there? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you checked the box but didn't really give it your best? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you knew you should, but you didn't – Yip that was an arrow. Remember when you felt guilt and shame over it – Yip that was an arrow. Not to mention all the things you've been dealing with that make you scared, make you hurt, and make you question – All arrows. Now do you see the attacks you are continually facing? This is your every day reality. Girl, you are always under attack. That's why you need this shield of faith. To put it quite simply, the way you defend yourself from Satan's attacks is on a very practical level TRUST WHAT'S TRUE ABOUT GOD. Faith isn't just hearing about God – Faith isn't even just knowing about God – Faith is actively positioning God's promises between your vulnerability and the enemy's fiery assaults. The devil is going to shoot his fiery arrows to tempt you, distract you, discourage you, detour you and defeat you, but that big ol' shield of faith in God's promises is what you actively pick up and hold up to protect you. I know my God. I know his ways. I feel his presence. I receive his strength. I believe his promises. I trust my God. My sister, that is your defense! Faith is what will protect you when the fiery arrows are coming at you. Faith is what will help you advance even when you're under attack. Faith is not optional for this battle, it is essential! So really, what is faith? What a really hard thing to describe. If we're not careful, faith becomes nothing more than hoping or wishing. You know when you apply for a job and you'r pretty sure you're not going to get it because you're not even remotely qualified for it and someone says, “Well, you've got to have faith.” No, that's not faith. That's not what our Bible is talking about. That kind of faith is not a defense. When you're under attack, just wishing that something is true will never give you the defense you need. Let's give faith a real definition. I read about a missionary named John Paton – someone you've likely never heard of before. He was a Scottish missionary who went to the islands of the South Pacific in the 1800's to tell these remote people about Jesus for the first time. He wasn't welcome there. His wife and child died. Yet, he continued. He learned their language, then he set out to translate the entire Bible into their language so they could know about Jesus. While translating scripture, he got to Ephesians chapter 6 and he was stuck on verse 16, “Hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil.” Their language had no word for faith. Faith was non-existent in their world, without even a word for it. As John sat in his island hut, stuck on translating this word “faith”, a local man came running and and flopped himself in a chair. He said to John, “It's just so good to rest my whole weight in this chair.” And that's when John knew – that's what faith is. This is how he could explain faith to the islanders. Faith is resting your whole weight on God. With that translation, the islanders understood faith and they came to put their whole weight on God through Jesus. Faith is putting your whole weight on God. If God said it, then it's true, and I believe it. That is faith. Faith is believing what Jesus has done for us, believing what God says about us, and living it out because it's THE truth. That's a shield of faith. Protected from the attacks of the enemy and able to advance! Through the Bible, we know: • God has chosen us. Before this world even began, he predestined that we would be his girls. He chose us first, gave us the family name, and bestowed upon us all the privileges of being his daughters. • God has blessed us. In everything that God has done for us, his intention is to bless us and give us what we don't deserve. • God has sealed us. He put his mark on us saying we belong to him and we're protected by him. • God has promised us an inheritance. We are in line to inherit the kingdom of God and eternal life. Through Jesus, it's our guaranteed destiny. Girl, that's where you're heading and today you're one day closer! God has held absolutely nothing back from you. He's given his all, he's given his best. He's actively taking everything in your life and making it work together for eternally good purposes. And when you put your whole weight on that, you will be able to survive the attacks of the evil one. Not only survive, but advance! When the fiery arrows come flying at you, and they always do – When you're tempted to doubt, leaning towards fear, hurting and questioning, avoiding the very things that will help you most, wandering down paths not meant for you and knocking on the wrong doors – STOP AND REMEMBER WHAT YOU KNOW OF GOD. Remember his promises for you. Remember what he's already done for you through Jesus. But don't just think about those things, LIFT THEM UP. Lift up that shield of faith by actually leaning into what you KNOW IS TRUE ABOUT GOD. Put your full weight on him. You know what you need to do in that moment of wandering, wallowing, wondering and wavering … you need to have a good talk with yourself. Listen here, self, stop this depressed, unhappy nonsense. Stop this wavering. Stop this delaying. Stop wallowing. You stop it now. Stop letting this steal your praise. Stop letting this distance you from Jesus. Stop it. Put your full weight on God. Remember his promises. Lean on them now! It's not going to be easy, but we all need to do this. We need each other to do it for us. Preach to yourself. Remind yourself of God. Arrange your life so that you're in the path of grace as much as possible — reading Scripture daily, praying, surrounding yourself with the right people. Know where you're vulnerable. Look to God, who will grant you the strength that you need. Then put your whole weight in what we know to be true about God. Remember the Roman shield formation? It's one thing to be a single soldier with a shield. Something much better happens when we come together with faith. As we create a shield-wall of faith, we'll be able to advance even when we're under attack. That's why you and I are connected. That's why God has given us an Army of sisters here. We fully put our weight on God in this together and we move forward even while under attack. Where are you being attacked? What fiery arrows are coming your way? What truths about God can you lean into today? Take up your shield of faith!
