  • Great Show - Annoying Scribbling

    This is a really good history show that is over shadowed by the silly scribbling. What’s the point? Please stop this annoying practice so I can enjoy the show. Thank you.

  • Helpful and insightful

    Excellent synopsis of thousands of years of history, drawing out the bright threads that influence current day events. I’m able to sift through media reports more effectively, because now I have a guideline.

  • Would be great but the audio quality is really quite difficult to listen to. It's 2026, good mics aren't that difficult to come by.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Apocalypse Now? Trump, Iran & the Return of End-Times Thinking
Q: How did apocalyptic thinking become intertwined with American politics and foreign policy especially in relation to Israel and the Middle East?
Evangelical apocalypticism has historically shaped foreign policy by advocating strong support for Israel, aligning religious aims with geopolitical goals, and encouraging politicians to address end-times prophecies as practical strategic considerations, which helped elevate religious leaders and narratives within political power structures.
Apocalypse Now? Trump, Iran & the Return of End-Times Thinking
Q: What is pre-millennial apocalypticism and why have these beliefs been so enduring in the United States?
Pre-millennialists believe the apocalypse will occur before the millennium, leading to a chaotic but transformative end times scenario that has persisted because it provides a framework for interpreting upheaval, mobilizing political action, and imagining a special role for the United States and Israel.
"Somewhere Between MORON & MONSTER" Royal Scandals Up To Andrew's Downfall
Q: Can a prince be removed from the line of succession, and what would that entail?
Parliament would need to pass specific legislation to exclude a royal from the line of succession; there is no automatic mechanism simply due to arrest or scandal, with precedents like the Abdication Act and modern reforms guiding such processes.
"DARK Day For The Monarchy" Andrew Arrested | Emergency Episode With Tom Bower
Q: How does this rank in terms of how shocking it is for the time it occurred in?
It's shocking, but modern monarchies have survived crises before.
"DARK Day For The Monarchy" Andrew Arrested | Emergency Episode With Tom Bower
Q: Will he be afforded any protection, or will he be treated precisely like a regular citizen throughout this process?
He is now being treated as an ordinary citizen, but will presumably have outstanding legal advice.
