Join Kosta and his guest: Johnny Blayze, Executive Director and Co-Founder of UC Makerspace.In this episode: The Upper Cumberland is changing. I'm sure people are tired of hearing us say it, but it's true. Everyday we're evolving into our next form and I see UC Makerspace playing a pivotal role in that evolution. For anyone just hearing about the concept of a makerspace for the first time, what should they know? At what point did you realize, Cookeville doesn't have anything like this, but we need it - and I'm the person to make it happen? How is a makerspace different from a co-working space? Most of us are familiar with the Biz Foundry and the concept of a shared working environment, but UCM offers different opportunities. How would you compare these two?Find out more about Upper Cumberland Makerspace: https://ucmakerspace.org/Get Tickets to the Makers Gala:https://makersgala.org/When?

In this Episode we revisit the Erika and Kat investigation.  They live in Sparta.  We play EVP's we caught on Site and talk about that investigation.  This house had a wide range of activity.  We saw shadow figures heard voices and more.  

In ancient Greece, women played important roles in their families and communities. They were in charge of managing the household and taking care of children. Some women, like those in Sparta, even received physical training and could own property. In Athens, women were expected to stay at home, but they still influenced society through their family connections. There were also famous women like Sappho, a great poet, whose works are still read today. These women helped shape the culture and traditions of ancient Greece in many ways.

Whither America? It's the question that the Swedish writer Johan Norberg examines in both a recent Washington Post op-ed as well as his new book, Peak Human. What we can learn from history's great civilizations, Norberg argues, is that they decline when they turn inward, away from both the outside world and innovation. “All Sparta, no Athens”, as he puts it. So what does that tell us not only about Trump's America but also Putin's Russia and Xi's China? And what should we make of Europe, which is neither Sparta nor Athens? And when compared with China, Russia and Europe, Norberg's vision of the American future seems relatively sunny. So maybe, with or without MAGA, the 21st century really will be the American century. * MAGA doesn't fit any traditional conservative or liberal framework. It's a radical ideology built around a strongman who has no patience for democratic process, rule of law, or compromise—precisely the institutions that classical liberalism and genuine conservatism have always sought to protect.* Declining empires are the most dangerous. Russia is “all Sparta, no Athens”—a society that builds barracks rather than innovation, extracts resources rather than creates wealth, and fears any neighboring democracy that might give its own people ideas. Putin may sense this is his last chance to rearrange the world order.* China's split personality may doom its long-term prospects. Deng Xiaoping borrowed from Athens—openness, experimentation, “crossing the river by feeling the stones.” Xi Jinping has reverted to Sparta—centralized control that can build electric vehicle factories fast but stifles the strange surprises that drive real innovation.* America's saving grace may be its constitutional limits. The courts are the only branch doing their job right now, striking down unconstitutional overreach one case at a time. Republicans know there's life after Trump—and after two centuries of championing the Constitution, they can't simply throw it aside.* Europe is Rome without the military power. The EU's great idea—an open continent that experiments with different solutions—is undermined by a Mandarin class in Brussels that insists on standardizing everything. That's why great European startups keep moving to California.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

V nejnovějším díle našeho pravidelného Space Z Letné a Strahova rozebrali Michael, Vojta a Vašek nejen těsnou výhru 2:1 v Boleslavi.Probrali jsme dopodrobna také posty, které bude Sparta nutně potřebovat posílit. Vojta také rozebral, proč český fotbal není schopný vychovávat hráče na krají pozice. Vytrhne nám i díky tomu trn z paty v Bolce debutující Ondřej Penxa?Srdcem Priskeho Sparty 2.0. je Kaan Kairinen. Zanalyzovali jsme, jak nahradíme finského dirigenta naší zálohy. Budeme muset sáhnout do zahraničí? Nebo si vystačíme s Kofodem a Vydrou?Zároveň musíme řešit, jak pracovat s reprezentanty, kteří jsou přetížení a do Prahy se vracejí pozdě. I proto ostatně v Boleslavi chyběli Birmančevič, Mercado a Preciado.Využije je Sparta při klíčovém venkovní utkání na hřišti trápící se Legie Varšava? A potrápí nás v Polsku hostující Krasniqi?Další náš Space si budete muset pustit další pondělí na našem Twitteru na @spartanske.Dejte nám follow, like a zasdílejte nás. Díky za podporu SN!

Chelsea Dartez, the creative force behind Cookeville Lifestyle Magazine, joins Ben Rodgers to share her incredible journey—starting with college life and karaoke shifts in a little Nashville alleyway, to discovering through gigs in Texas that the music industry wasn't where she belonged. After settling in Cookeville, she used her public relations background to shape the very first layout of the magazine, and she reflects on how far it's come since that early issue. Chelsea talks about building a dedicated team, the challenges of producing a completely free community-focused publication, and her plans to expand into Sparta, Livingston, and even a new Crossville edition under her umbrella. With a mission to highlight everyday people doing extraordinary things, she opens up about earning the trust of the community as an outsider and shares exciting details about the digital platform she's getting ready to launch—so even more readers can stay connected to the good happening right here at home.

Slovenský futbalový tréner Adrián Guľa otvorene prehovoril o svojej prvej sezóne v lotyšskom tíme FC Riga, kde hneď v úvodnom ročníku doviedol klub po štyroch rokoch k vytúženému majstrovskému titulu. V exkluzívnom rozhovore v podcaste Striedame! na ŠPORT.sk odhalil nielen detaily zo zákulisia úspešnej sezóny, ale aj momenty, keď musel zvažovať svoj odchod.Adrián Guľa neskrýva, že úvod v Rige bol dramatický. Po prvých štyroch zápasoch mal bilanciu 1 výhra, 2 remízy, 1 prehra. „Ešte som nebol ani vybalený. Býval som na akadémii,” priznáva otvorene tréner, ktorý do projektu išiel s jasným poslaním - vyhrať titul alebo odísť.Situácia bola natoľko vyhrotená, že s manažmentom klubu si museli nanovo nastaviť pravidlá spolupráce. „Dostali sme to na hranu a z nej sme sa potom odrazili do pozitívna, ale naozaj to bolo na hrane,” vysvetľuje 50-ročný kouč, ktorý v kluboch ako Plzeň či Dunajská Streda nebol zvyknutý na takýto typ riadenia.Po zvládnutí úvodnej krízy prišla nevídaná dominancia. Riga zaznamenala 15 víťazstiev po sebe a celkovo 31 zápasov bez prehry. Ako sa to podarilo? Adrián Guľa odhalil svoju filozofiu budovania tímu: „Vnímam hráčov ako ľudí, ako partnerov. Disciplína, charakter a dobrá mentalita plus silný team spirit.”Zaujímavou súčasťou rozhovoru je pohľad do fungovania klubu s hráčmi z 10 rôznych národností - od Peru cez Ghanu až po Ukrajinu. „Medzi hráčmi sa rozpráva minimálne tromi jazykmi,” opisuje Adrián Guľa prostredie, kde angličtina, španielčina aj francúzština tvoria každodenný komunikačný mix.Šokujúcim odhalením je finančné nastavenie klubu: „Pätnásť víťazstiev za sebou a jednoducho nula. Čistá nula.” Prémie boli viazané výlučne na konečný výsledok - zisk majstrovského titulu.Tréner sa venoval aj neúspešnému pokusu prebojovať sa do skupinovej fázy európskych pohárov, kde Rigu vyradila pražská Sparta. Zároveň načrtol víziu klubu do budúcnosti a hovoril aj o tom, čo by ho presvedčilo na odchod z Lotyšska.V rozhovore Adrián Guľa neskrýval ani emócie po nedávnom vysokom debakli slovenskej reprezentácie, v ktorej s hráčmi má osobné vzťahy z predchádzajúcich pôsobení.Celý rozhovor prináša úprimný pohľad na život trénera v zahraničí, fungovanie moderného futbalového klubu pod vedením ruského investora Sergeja Lomakina a detaily z prostredia lotyšskej ligy, o ktorej sa na Slovensku vie len málo.

Cijferman Bart Frouws vertelt je in Scorebordjournalistiek wat er opvalt richting speelronde 13 van de Eredivisie. Samen met Sjoerd Keizer bespreekt hij deze keer NEC, NAC en Sparta Rotterdam.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mangler du noget at se frem til i de mørke og kolde vinterdage? Så lyt med her! Vi gennemgår nemlig en hel masse film, du kan glæde dig til at se i året, der kommer. Vi taler om Hollywoods forkærlighed for nostalgi med prequals, sequals og biopics, hvorfor internettet allerede hader den kommende 'Wuthering Heights'-film, vores (lidt pessimistiske) forventninger til storfilm som 'Avengers: Doomsday' og 'Dune: Part 3' og hvorfor 'Shrek'-filmene er mesterværker. Undervejs kommer vi også ind på vores respektive bisexual awakenings og lidt farligt gætværk om, hvordan Christopher Nolan mon har det med kvinder. Så grib dine popcorn og hop med ombord. Værter: Lennon Vicktoria Dikov og Sofie Rechendorff Andersen OBS: Vi kommer på et tidspunkt i programmet til at sige, at Odysseus i 'Odysseen' er på vej hjem fra krigen i Sparta. Det er selvfølgelig noget værre sludder, han er jo på vej hjem fra krigen i Troja! En pinlig fejl, som vi beklager dybt.

Hokejová extraliga jede po reprezentační pauze znovu zběsilým tempem dál. Co musí Třinec změnit, aby se znovu vrátil na vítěznou vlnu? Bere Martin Procházka omluvu brankáře Karlových Varů Dominika Frodla po duelu proti Plzni, kdy úmyslně posunul bránu? Dočká se Matěj Blümel pořádné příležitosti v barvách Bostonu Bruins? Jak moc dobrou alternativou jsou nafukovací haly pro hokej? Je normální, že Brno a Sparta vzdali boj v Lize mistrů. Poslechněte si talkshow Čistá hra.

The tale of three city states continues as Sparta maintains their seizure of Thebes while Athens looks to reclaim their maritime dominance. Persia has war on many fronts and ever-worsening palace intrigue, making their interference or lack thereof uncertain. While the old kings Agesilaus and Artaxerxes live on, a new generation of leaders, warriors, orators and innovators are emerging throughout Greece. The continuing stories of Chabrias, Parysatis, Iphicrates and Tirabazus - featuring their best ASOIAF counterparts - plus new characters added to the mix.HoW Audience Survey - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠bit.ly/howsurvey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bonus Eps & More -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ patreon.com/historyofwesteros⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shirts & Stickers -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠historyofwesteros.threadless.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.historyofwesteros.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Intro/Maps - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠klaradox.de⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook Group -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ bit.ly/howfb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Discord -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ bit.ly/howdiscord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Nina - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠goodqueenaly.tumblr.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Tahun 431 SM, Athena dalam kondisi sejahtera. Laut Aegea dikuasai penuh dan perdagangan sedang puncak-puncaknya. Ekonomi pun tumbuh signifikan. Tapi riak-riak pertentangan mulai muncul di kawasan. Athena yang punya proyek pembangunan tembok bikin Sparta mulai was-was. Puncaknya, Athena mulai bertentangan dengan Megara, negara yang diklaimnya melakukan pelanggaran pada tanah suci dan dituduh terlibat pembunuhan pembawa pesan Athena.Athena melarang Megara berdagang di pasar mana pun milik Athena. Larangan ini dikenal sebagai Megarian Decree – sejenis embargo ekonomi versi zaman Yunani kuno. Efeknya? Megara kelaparan. Lumbung dagangnya lumpuh. Dan karena Megara adalah sekutu Sparta... Sparta pun geram. Dan boom. Perang Peloponnesia meletus.

"If it is gone, human nature tells you someone in power is not going to voluntarily give that power up." Trey answers a follow-up question about whether a future Senate could ever reinstate a filibuster and explains why, in practice, once the 60-vote rule is gone it is unlikely to return. He uses history, Senate precedent, and even a lesson from Sparta to show how the filibuster serves as both a shield and a limit on majority power. Trey also recommends a favorite myth-inspired novel and offers practical advice for frustrated sports fans navigating YouTube TV's carriage dispute. Learn more about your ad choices.

A continent-spanning empire bore down on a patchwork of rival city-states—and out of that pressure, a people discovered themselves. We follow the Greek victories over Persia from raw survival to a moral origin story, showing how memory, art, and ritual transformed urgent alliance into a lasting idea: Hellenic freedom.We start with the fragile coalition that met the Persian advance at Salamis and Plataea, then uncover how the meaning of those battles grew in the retelling. Simonides' epigrams, Pindar's odes, and Herodotus' sweeping narrative forged a panhellenic lens through which courage, divine favor, and self-rule became the Greek signature. Monuments like the Serpent Column at Delphi and offerings at Olympia turned sanctuaries into archives of unity, while annual rites at Plataea and Salamis taught that freedom must be renewed, not assumed.Athens made the memory visible. Rising from a burned Acropolis, the city reframed myth as politics on the Parthenon, casting Greeks versus Amazons and gods versus giants as a code for order resisting tyranny. At the same time, naval power rewired society. Themistocles' triremes elevated the rowers—the thetes—and widened democratic voice, seeding the Delian League and a new maritime identity. That shift sharpened the contrast with Sparta's land-first conservatism, foreshadowing rivalry even as the ideal of Hellenic liberty took root.We connect these threads to later thinkers and leaders. Thucydides uses the Persian War as a baseline of necessary unity. Plato and Isocrates hold it up as a mirror for civic virtue. Alexander taps its emotion to justify conquest. Across centuries, the wars became sacred history and a durable myth: free citizens against imperial despotism, reason over hubris. Listen for a richer view of how battles end but stories begin—and how those stories still guide debates on power, identity, and the price of freedom.

In the middle of the Scottish hills, far from the museums and polite drawing rooms of Edinburgh, there's a garden unlike any other on earth. It's called Little Sparta, and it was created by one man.

The Peloponnesian War is considered one of the most famous wars of the ancient world not only because it was a massive and devastating conflict that reshaped the Greek world, but also because its thorough documentation by the historian Thucydides transformed how we understand history and war. On the face of it, the Peloponnesian War, fought over 2000 years ago in a corner of the Mediterranean, shouldn’t have made history. While the war was quite long, lasting 27 years, and oftentimes brutal, the two major parties, Athens and Sparta, were politically irrelevant within a century of the war’s conclusion. Plus the war’s cause is murky and takes a detailed understanding of Greek’s chaotic political history. And yet, it was this conflict which would be remembered for centuries. As the subject of a detailed history by Thucydides, an Athenian war general and historian, the story of the Peloponnesian War remains essential reading for politicians, historians, and students. Today’s guest is Polly Low, who authored part of a new translation of The History of the Peloponnesian War. The translation depicts the events of the war between Athens and Sparta that began in 431 BC and would continue until 404, a conflict that embroiled not only mainland Greece but Greek states from the eastern Mediterranean and as far west as Italy and Sicily.

Athens, Sparta, Thebes, and their neighbors fought a seemingly endless series of civil wars worthy of Westeros. But just like the War of Five Kings, Greece should have been more concerned with uniting against a greater threat massing to the North - one capable of conquering or enslaving them all. This is a grand story of deeds as infamous as the Red Wedding, as heroically selfless as Dunk or Brienne, and as disturbing as the worst Targaryen incest or Bolton torture.HoW Audience Survey - ⁠⁠⁠bit.ly/howsurvey⁠⁠⁠Bonus Eps & More -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ patreon.com/historyofwesteros⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shirts & Stickers -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠historyofwesteros.threadless.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.historyofwesteros.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Intro/Maps - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠klaradox.de⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook Group -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ bit.ly/howfb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Discord -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ bit.ly/howdiscord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Nina - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠goodqueenaly.tumblr.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Empires can lose in stages—and the moments in between can matter most. We dive into the chain that turned Xerxes' massive gamble into Greek momentum: the trap at Salamis, the phalanx at Plataea, and the “forgotten victory” at Mycale that shifted the war from survival to liberation. Step by step, a divided world of city-states learned to think as one, using geography, coalition discipline, and psychological pressure to unmake Persian dominance of the Aegean.We start with the strategic stakes of 480–479 BCE, when Athens and Sparta put rivalry on hold to exploit narrow seas and favourable ground. Salamis shows how triremes, tight channels, and local knowledge shattered a larger fleet and denied Persia the supply lines that kept its army viable. Plataea follows with a land reckoning: Pausanias' coalition absorbed missile fire, closed ranks, and broke Mardonius' force, clearing central Greece and puncturing the myth of Persian inevitability.Then comes Mycale on the Ionian coast, where the meaning of victory changes. Persian ships beached, Ionian units peeled away, and Greek hoplites stormed fortified positions—liberating cities that had long lived under satrapal rule. Near-simultaneous success at Plataea and Mycale delivered a morale shock the Persians couldn't absorb and gave the Greeks ports, partners, and purpose. The result: a transition from defence to projection, the seeds of the Delian League, and a lasting story about unity, freedom, and the power of coordinated land–sea strategy.Support the show

“THIS… IS… EPISODE 300!” Join Ian, Liam, Megs & Kev as we hit a huge milestone with our 300th episode by reviewing Zack Snyder's visually explosive, slow-motion-soaked epic 300 (2006). Four hosts, six-packs optional, and absolutely no capes required — though Kev may or may not have shown up in one. This week we discuss: 300 episodes strong — how did we get here, and who yelled the loudest doing it? How 300 redefined the look of early-2000s cinema and became the blueprint for a decade of digital epics. Is 300 the natural endpoint of a cinematic obsession with masculinity that began with Braveheart and Gladiator? Just exactly how much does this movie borrow from these films and which elements does it outright steal How the film balances mythic masculinity with questionable historical accuracy — and does it matter? Megs is here to give us some historically accurate statements on the battle of Thermopylae We've got a classic BFE taste test of a product you won't believe Several people reach out to congratulate us and some familiar voices show up to toast with us  Which one of us would make the best Spartan, and which one would be sent to tell the story? The surprising cultural impact of “This is Sparta!” — and which line from the movie we've all been yelling at each other for days. Ian breaks down the film's visual language and pacing — why Snyder's comic-book literalism both elevates and limits the story. And finally, whether 300 is the Best Film Ever—or just the most gloriously sweaty milestone we could've picked.

Popular culture has mythologised The Spartans as militaristic warriors who enjoyed nothing more than battling to the death. But how much of what we think we know is actually true?

Thucydides called his work a “possession for all time,” and his History of the Peloponnesian War has been essential reading for generals and politicians for centuries.    Robin Waterfield's translation of Thucydides's sweeping narrative vividly depicts the events of the war between Athens and Sparta that began in 431 BCE and would continue until 404, a conflict that embroiled not only mainland Greece but Greek states from the eastern Mediterranean and as far west as Italy and Sicily. The only extant contemporary narrative of this conflict, Thucydides's History brims with military, moral, and political reflections, offering critical commentary on challenges that still dominate our world today, from the strife of civil war to the devastation of widespread plague to the nature of political power.   Thucydides died before completing the account—it ends in 410—but his legacy is timeless. One of the great masterpieces of classical Greece, The History of the Peloponnesian War offers an incisive and timely window into the conflicts of the past. BUY THE BOOK

Air Date 9/20/2025 The escalations are happening so fast now that even though this episode is about Russia increasing tensions by violating NATO airspace in Poland with drones and Israel intensifying their belligerence by bombing inside Qatar, those aren't even the most recent incidents now that Russian jets have entered NATO airspace in Estonia and Israel has launched a new attack on Gaza City while Netanyahu says he wants Israel to become like the doomed city-state of Sparta, which was weird.
