Podcasts about western empire

John and Javier Ramirez from Abya Yala Update talk about building spiritual community within the collapse of the Western Empire

Having inherited a bankrupt Western Empire, with no treasury, no army, no popular support, and no civitas, Majorian sets about achieving the impossible, knitting the West back together again.  Never before has a Western Emperor started in such dire straits, with such ambitious objectives, and with such exceptional talents.  We cannot help but wish him the very best (as we shed a tear for him, and Rome)...

I've caught up on The Remarried Empress and wow ... I have no words. Actually, I have a lot of words!

Send us a textThough Christian Zionism precedes Jewish Zionism by almost two centuries, this fact is often overlooked in discussions of Palestine and Israel. In this illuminating discussion with Prof. Robert Smith (Chickasaw), he defines Christian Zionism, pinpoints its historical origins, and connects this to the interplay between theology and Western empire in the past and present.  

Just one year after the Emperor Theodosius died in 395AD, Stilicho, his son in law and the man he trusted to carry the Empire forward, is struggling with an impossible situation.  The frontiers are overrun by an unholy coaltion of barbarian tribes, pushed inexorably towards Rome by the approaching Hun menace.  Meanwhile, Alaric and his Goths, the most powerful military force in the Empire, rampage through the Roman homeland, demanding military honors and a place to settle his people.  Over the course of the next decade, Stilicho would accomplish miracles with paltry resources, protecting Italy, while meeting, and defeating a host of enemies that breached the Roman frontier, but none more fearsome than Alaric, who Stilicho defeated in battle time and again.  Yet after each defeat, Alaric always seemed to slip away, seeding the rumors that would plague Stilicho the rest of his life.  Anti-barbarian sentiment builds.  And though half-Vandal Stilicho was born Roman, and devoted his life to serving and protecting the Empire, a plot is hatched to murder the defender of the Western Empire.  Once Stilicho is eliminated, there is nothing capable of holding Alaric, King of the Goths in check, and no one capable of protecting the City of Rome, birthplace of empire.   

With the story finished for now (by the time you actually hear this we'll have already recorded at least a couple of episodes for season 2), we look back over this last season and talk about thoughts for the future,  what made us laugh, what made us want to tear our hair out, and a whole bunch of other nonsense relating to what we just did.  Enjoy, and have a lovely Winter  Holiday from John, Harm, Obie, Ru, Ames, Roy, Steve, PJ, and Jake!Episode 24/24Content Warnings: Adult Content, Adult Language, ProfanityBailey Brown is HarmXander Freshley is JakeLeon Lysenko is RoyVirgil Valentine is SteveRachel Witsan is AmesSurviving Love is a Real Play Games Podcast production.  Dead Reign®, The Palladium Fantasy RPG®, Megaverse® and RIFTs® are © Copyright and Registered Trademarks owned by Palladium Books.  Wolfen Empire, Great Northern Wilderness, Bru-Ga Belimar Mountains, Lopan, Island Kingdom of Bizantium, Library of Blethrad, Western Empire, Eastern Territory, Land of the South Winds, Yin-Sloth Jungles, Mind Mage, Diabolist, Summoner, Tristine Chronicles, Od, Locknar, Hocknar, Wolvenar, Nar-Rabium, Defilers, Wolfen, and other names, titles, or likenesses of characters are trademarks of Palladium Books, Inc. and Kevin Siembieda.  Used with permission.If you want to know more about theThe Palladium Fantasy 2nd Edition Role-playing Game® or Palladium's host of other amazing role-playing games, you can find them all www.palladiumbooks.com or wherever fine RPG products are sold.   If you use our affiliate link included in the episode notes, you can help support the show at no cost to you whenever you purchase a PDF of a Palladium Books title on www.drivethrurpg.com!https://www.drivethrurpg.com/index.php?affiliate_id=177655Our theme song, Dreamy High Fantasy Reed Instrument Solo with Modern Backing is performed by DaveyC and is used under a license that includes synch licensing.Any similarity to or references to persons, businesses, or events, living, dead, undead, or otherwise, is completely coincidental, save for instances of parody.If you want to reach out to the Real Play Games Podcast, feel free to email us at realplaygamespodcast@gmail.com or reach us on Twitter @realplaypod, on Instagram @realplaygamespod, on Tumblr under RealPlayGamesPodcast or on Bluesky @realplaygamespod.bsky.social  If you'd like to help support the show, as well as get early access to episodes, exclusive episodes, and behind-the-scenes looks at how we make our adventures, head on over to www.patreon.com/realplaygamespod and become a Patron today!Direct Link to Episode Download - https://www.buzzsprout.com/1805131/episodes/15027772-surviving-love-season-one-reunion-special.mp3?download=trueSupport the show

The Roman caesars were the rulers of the Roman Empire, beginning in 27 BC with Julius Caesar's heir Augustus, from whom subsequent caesars took their name, and lasting until around the fall of the Western Empire in 476 AD. The caesars transitioned the Roman Republic to autocratic rule, consolidating vast territories under centralized authority and shaping Western governance, law, and culture. Their reign marked one of history's most influential periods, laying the groundwork for modern empires and enduring legacies in political and architectural innovation.They also left behind some instructive leadership lessons, in both what and what not to do.Here to unpack some of the Roman Empire's most significant caesars as both histories and leadership case studies is Barry Strauss, who is a classicist, professor, military historian, fellow at Stanford's Hoover Institution, and the author of numerous books, including Ten Caesars. Today on the show, Barry shares how Augustus consolidated power by initially cleaning house, a redeeming quality of the otherwise infamous Nero, the strategies Vespasian and Severus used to gain legitimacy as outsiders, why Marcus Aurelius was an insightful philosopher but struggled as an emperor, the emperor under whose rule the empire began its decline, what Constantine understood about the idea that if you want things to stay the same, everything must change, and much more.Resources Related to the PodcastBarry's previous appearance on the AoM podcast: Episode #487 — Leadership Lessons From the 3 Greatest Ancient CommandersBarry's forthcoming book: Jews vs. Rome — Two Centuries of Rebellion Against the World's Mightiest EmpireAoM Podcast #346: The Fall of the Roman RepublicAoM Podcast #969: The Making of a Stoic EmperorConnect With Barry StraussBarry's websiteBarry's faculty pageBarry on LinkedIn

On this episode of Unsupervised Learning Razib talks to archeologist and historian Bryan Ward-Perkins about his 2005 book The Fall of Rome: And the End of Civilization. Ward-Perkins was born and grew up in Rome, a son of architectural historian and archaeologist, John Bryan Ward-Perkins. Educated at Oxford University, Ward-Perkins eventually became a fellow of Trinity College at the same university, from which he has since retired. An archaeologist with a deep interest in economic history, Ward-Perkins' standout book The Fall of Rome was to a great extent a restatement of traditional understandings of the Roman fall in the wake of academic revisions stimulated by Peter Brown's 1989 World of Late Antiquity: AD 150-750. Ward-Perkins scholarship focuses on the outputs of economic production: fine pottery, grand public buildings and copious coinage. In contrast, Brown and his fellow travelers tended to focus on religious innovation and creativity in the centuries coincident with Rome's fall. The Fall of Rome documents in crisp, dense prose the material collapse attendant with the dissolution of the Western Empire in the late 5th and 6th centuries, from the vanishing of pottery in Britain to the cessation of the construction of massive buildings across  the Italian peninsula. Razib also asks Ward-Perkins his opinions on his colleague Pete Heather's book The Fall of the Roman Empire: A New History of Rome and the Barbarians.  Ward-Perkins sees Heather's work as complementary; while Ward-Perkins is interested in the material aspects of everyday Roman life, Heather documents and narrates the diplomatic and military affairs of the Roman elite. Ward-Perkins also comments on Chris Wickham's work in books like The Inheritance of Rome: Illuminating the Dark Ages 400-1000, which outlines how the Roman and post-Roman states differed, in particular, the disappearance in Europe of professional soldiers paid in currency, rather than feudal levies. They also discuss  Walter Scheidel's Escape from Rome: The Failure of Empire and the Road to Prosperity, and whether Roman citizens were actually materially better  off than their medieval successors. Ward-Perkins also gives his estimation of the time measured in centuries until Western Europe reattained Roman levels of social, technological and political complexity.

The German government has also called on people to build their own bomb shelters and form citizen armies to defend nuclear facilities as the government admits it has run out of resources to protect itself. In the recent statement by Bundeswehr General Carsten Breuer, he also acknowledged that conscription could be coming soon. The UK has also called for conscription as well as the US War College. Russian President Vladimir Putin has maintained that there are no plans to attack Europe and that doing so would be "insane." However, the west really wants war. Whether in the middle east alongside Israel against Iran, or in Eastern Europe alongside Ukraine and NATO against Russia. The truth is, both sides are working together as they have been for a century to collapse the western empire. The dollar has purposely been destroyed as has the supply chain, energy grid and housing market to replace with BRICS, a CBDC, 15 Minute Cities and carbon credits. Demoralization has been forced on children in the west as well as convenience to weaken the masses. This is a coordinated effort to destroy western civilization and bring on a "Great Reset." Yet, people sit on their hands and pick sides not realizing they're all work towards the same goal. Stay tuned for more from WAM!

So the US and the UK just bombed the poorest country in the middle east for trying to stop a genocide. Not only that, they bombed the very same country in which they just spent years backing Saudi Arabia's genocidal atrocities which killed hundreds of thousands of people between 2015 and 2022 in an unsuccessful bid to stop the Houthis from taking power. Reading by Tim Foley.

It took little more than a single generation for the centuries-old Roman Empire to fall. In those critical decades, while Christians and pagans, legions and barbarians, generals and politicians squabbled over dwindling scraps of power, two men – former comrades on the battlefield – rose to prominence on opposite sides of the great game of empire.Roman general Flavius Stilicho, the man behind the Roman throne, dedicated himself to restoring imperial glory, only to find himself struggling for his life against political foes. Alaric, King of the Goths, desired to be a friend of Rome, was betrayed by it, and given no choice but to become its enemy. Battling each other to a standstill, these two warriors ultimately overcame their differences in order to save the empire from enemies on all sides. And when Stilicho fell, Alaric took vengeance on Rome, sacking it in 410, triggering the ultimate downfall of the Western Empire.To discuss this critical decade in Western history is Don Hollway, author of “At the Gates of Rome: The Fall of the Eternal City, AD 410.”This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3101278/advertisement
