Do you want to learn about one of the biggest investment fraud cases in US history? The story we’re going to tell today is a tale of two businessmen that we think all of us can use as an example of good morals and bad morals. A good leader and a bad leader. An honest man who lived by his convictions and a con man who lived a life full of lies. And finally, a man with TRUE integrity and honor and a man who doesn’t even understand the meaning of the words.

In the past 25 years, India and the United States have become closer than ever before, building strong economic and strategic ties. Their partnership has rested on shared values and shared interests: they are the two largest democracies in the world, home to vast multicultural populations, and both have been concerned about the rise of India’s northern neighbor, China. But in the past four months, that carefully cultivated relationship has abruptly gone off the rails. The return of U.S. President Donald Trump to the White House threatens to undo the achievements of a quarter century.

Lady of Death

Lady of Death

Lyudmila Pavlichenko, history’s deadliest female sniper, is considered to be a Soviet propaganda myth by some, including some people in Russia. The divorced teenage mother from the tiny Ukrainian town of Bila Tserkva is credited with killing at least 309 Nazis — she simply sounds too good to be true.

Olga of Kiev ruled the Rus’ – a medieval people in Ukraine related to the Vikings – for over 15 years. She is primarily known for her christianizing influence on the Rus’ lands during her later years in power. But the start of her regency is just as compelling a story. She became leader of the Rus’ because her husband, the grand prince, was atrociously killed by the Drevlian tribe while their son was still an infant. Obsessed with revenge, Olga’s early reign was consumed by a systemic and ruthless payback campaign against the Drevlians.

In the early 17th century, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth stood as one of Europe’s largest and most formidable states, stretching from the Baltic to the Black Sea. By 1618, its territory had expanded to twice the size of France, thanks to military victories against Muscovy during the chaotic “Time of Troubles.” But that glory also came at the cost of internal stagnation and decay. The Commonwealth’s political system was both its strength and its fatal flaw. Proudly self-identified as a “Christian Republic,” it operated under a unique elective monarchy where power was shared between the king, the Senate, and the Chamber of Envoys (Sejm), which with time would cease all progress Travel to Thailand with me ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Check out our sister podcast the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mystery of Everything⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Coffee Collab With The Lore Lodge ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠COFFEE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Bonus episodes as well as ad-free episodes on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Nigeria has gained a reputation as a "scam capital" due to the prevalence of online fraud, particularly advance-fee scams (also known as "419 scams"). This reputation is rooted in a combination of factors, including economic hardship, weak law enforcement, and a culture that, in some instances, seems to tolerate or even celebrate fraudulent behavior.

In the mid 19th century in Macon, Georgia, a man and woman fell in love, married and, as many young couples do, began thinking about starting a family. But Ellen and William Craft were both enslaved and were well aware that any of their future children could be ripped away at any moment and sold as property. So, they devised a bold escape plan.

War elephants were elephants that were trained and guided by humans for combat. They were used to charge the enemy, break their ranks and instill terror and fear. Elephantry is a term for specific military units using elephant-mounted troops.In addition to their role in combat, elephants provided an excellent means of transportation and could be used to move heavy equipment and supplies over large distances. They were also their own form of cavalry, able to charge at tremendous speed. Their sheer size made war elephants all but unstoppable.

A scandal involving Greek use of EU agricultural funds is set to play a role in the EU Parliament’s discharge of the Commission budget later this year, the co-chair of the European Parliament’s Intergroup on Anti-Corruption has told Euronews. Five high-ranking Greek government officials, including a minister and three deputies, resigned on Friday following allegations of involvement in the case, which stems from the alleged mismanagement of EU subsidies for agriculture between 2019 and 2022 by OPEKEPE, a government agency tasked with handling the funds.

For most of the 20th century, Bell Labs was the beating heart of American innovation. Founded in 1925 as the research arm of AT&T and Western Electric, it was the world’s preeminent industrial research laboratory. If you used a phone, accessed the internet, or wrote code, you were benefiting from Bell Labs' innovations—even if you didn’t realize it. Bell Labs wasn’t just another corporate R&D division; it was a nation-state-level research operation embedded within the private sector. It didn’t just respond to markets—it created them.

In medieval Europe, legal divorce as understood today did not exist; instead, marriages were primarily dissolved through annulments or legal separations. Annulments declared a marriage invalid from the start, while separations allowed spouses to live apart, but did not allow remarriage.  In the case of Royalty this got really messy at times Learn more about your ad choices.

How did we get to modern divorce rates? Divorce laws and practices have evolved significantly throughout history, from ancient codified rules to modern no-fault divorce systems. The earliest evidence of divorce laws can be found in ancient Mesopotamia, with the Code of Hammurabi (1760 BC) outlining divorce procedures. Modern divorce patterns emerged in the 18th and 19th centuries, influenced by changing societal views on marriage and the concept of "love marriages". In the United States, the shift towards no-fault divorce, exemplified by California's 1969 law, dramatically increased divorce rates. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

A good podcast & the main host is great- however, the female really takes away from the quality & brings nothing but annoyance when she speaks. It's much better when she doesn't "participate". She tries to act cute & it's not. BUT... I really do recommend this podcast. I enjoy it & it's on my "favorites" list. The above description of the female co-host is only my personal opinion & someone else may disagree w/me. So give it a chance & listen.

As to the “buffer forces” term I’ve heard the term “trip wire forces” used to describe US and allied troops in South Korea today. Not enough to permanently forestall and invasion, but to defend until larger forces can deploy. Love your stuff!

I'm just going to say her input and taking the history so personal was kinda off-putting 'like killing allied men women and children because of their skin color makes sense '
