Great SHOW! Thanks!
Shawn , not sure but I had heard that we got our word , “ salary “ from the word salt because salt was used to pay Roman soldiers. Salt was Valuable due to its food preservation properties. I haven’t finished this podcast so maybe the gentleman says this. I love y’all . I need yall . Peace
most of the printed currency goes overseas in the same way the Somalis did it.
2:03:49 when he nukes Iran because Israel wants it
The praetorian guard / CIA Mossad
What’s everyone’s go to Roman Empire book to read
Pax Romana failed……..because Cesarian was the chosen one??mt vesuvius explodes flash back to the bronze age collapse?? no wait he wasn’t from the house of David (Ay? maternal uncle of Akhenaten last of the royal line?) descendant of the 18th Dynisty of Egypt ? …..
A friend quoted something once that is making more sense every day…..he said….The rise and fall of the romam empire only to rise again through the elect.
Not sure who made tjat quote.
Thoroughly enjoyed the interview.
Threw a log on the fire, poured a good drink, sat in a comfortable chair…and watch from beginning to end.
👊🏼🇺🇸
01:53:45 that was a lot off mental gymnastics, trying not to say ☪️🥷🏿 culture
VERY eye opening episode. It’s like I’m hearing the entire history of the USA
“Future Time Bombs” That’s exactly what is happening!
Everyone in New York voted for who??… and now they see! He said Free bus rides! FREE everything. He said we’re going to tax the wealthy! Then the wealthy leave the state… and guess what!? Middle class and lower class get taxed up the ass! It’s a bad plan that never works
“Rome had politics”
“WoOAaowW we are literally Rome” 😮😮😮😮
One of your best guests for me Bro. Italian and a history buff 💯
Homosexual democracy as well as today????(?
Do an episode on The Crusades
Might help if we didnt pay influencers hundreds of millions, aswell.
How does Shawn get.. war started by religion.. to “you see war started by Christianity and then he is pushing Christianity”… Constantine was already at war when he had his vision.. likely didn’t know enough to convert until after the battle.. placing christians in power is nowhere equivalent to “imposing” Christianity.
Thx Mike Benz shit is total nonsense he is an ass clown bought and paid for which became even clearer when he starts talking about needles in haystacks and these guys had the time of their life they just just big oke dummies who go suckered hmmmm maybe cuz mike Benz is a dish bitch for reed hoffman.. also the bullshit about us-aid Mike Benz pathetically speaks on.. yes the cia uses it to pay for shit on the low and makes it look terrible reality is most of it was soft power by sending food to starving people etc.. Mike Benz speaking in “it has to be surgical the patient is sick aka usaid 😂” it’s 0.03 percent of the budget funny Elon missed all the corporate welfare him an his friends and Mike Benz benefactor enrich themselves with as they grow the budget bigger rob us blind and say waste fraud and abuse yes Biden was a clown but if you can’t face the robbery ride your being taken in well trump pardons every crook who robbed people blind an Chinese spies and Arabs so long as they buy his crypto by th millions and billions… welp if ya can’t understand I implore you to tak all of your money and invest it in Donald trump crypto and companies 😂😂😂 so far 33 people made 800 million an 83,000 lost 1.1 billion and that was some time ago but please invest in the great business men who knows your so weak you’ll break over th hated foreigner schtick and woke schtick from the very people who stiff small business and brought the immigrants in to lower your wages hahahaha good luck w riding for them see how it work out❤
22:54 Danger danger sounds like a DJT pedo lover….. I hope I’m wrong.
If you need any machining done contact LZK MFG !!!
This guy’s actually really good. The clip made it look like he glossed over a lot, but it seems like it just didn’t come up because you guys were talking about other things. I love a good historian who does their due diligence.
The only difference between a democracy and a dictatorship is in the democracy everyone of eligibility is afforded one vote for the dictator of their choice!
Jimmy Corsetti , Kurt WUCKERT Jr , Dr Craig S Wright
….this is a terrible misrepresentation of Rome, Roman history, the general history of the world at that time, sense of the times….there is so many painfully incorrect statements mixed with historical facts either misplaced, misunderstood, misrepresented its literally innumerable at just 15:43. I just hope the size of this platform encourages people to study the real and interesting history associated with the fall of Rome.
I’m not a Trump lover! But to say he’s going to be a tyrant in my opinion is absolutely lunacy!
Edit: I mean that with other presidents! He’s really no different
Trading commodities and intrinsic items is not black market trading. That is bartering. 😂
Hahhah DELETING COMMENTS NOW?? WEAK AF
That ain’t Trump’s fault that he has to rule by executive order. It’s the congress’s fault because they’re they won’t do anything. Why don’t you guys run for president and see how great you do
Thank God for Trump at least he’s trying to fix some of the stuff he’s not sitting on a podcast, trying to be a armchair quarterback
Imho, one should be looking to the fall of the Republic to Empire as the relevant period to contrast with today.
Hands down one of the best interviews
Shawn, I seriously love your show! But I just have to correct something. I have lived in Minnesota all my life. Your guest said something about Minnesota and I want to set the record straight. I am a proud white American woman. I live about 20 minutes from Minneapolis. I can proudly say I can go anywhere in Minnesota like a free bird and feel safe. The cops aren’t scared of going anywhere here. The thing that people don’t understand about Minnesota is we welcome different cultures and ethnicity here. No one lives in different sections or areas apart from one another. We all live side by side together. I live in a suburb neighborhood with White, Blacks, Somalians and Hispanics. There has never been a problem the whole 15 years of living in my neighborhood. I have shared amazing Somalian tea, the best tacos you would ever eat, and the ultimate tater tot hot dish (Minnesota traditional dish) with my neighbors. I can walk down the Main Street in Minneapolis and feel safe. What the media has shown the country about our state is so mistakenly untrue. I welcome anyone to come to Minnesota. Come taste our food, meet our neighbors, and see the beautiful nature this state has to offer. That’s even at -40 degree weather. I promise you Minnesota is a great state for many reasons. I truly wouldn’t want to live anywhere else. ❤
God in your mind is th delusional blood magic human sacrifice you believe in… and culturally drilled into you so you think yours is important I’ll fight and die fo you to believe in whatever fairy you like just know it’s the sam as Zeus and the gods they sacrificed people fo in mexican pyramids… the one thing that made America great was neutering religion it’s a systematic cult of genocide slavery and child predators that’s a couple thousand year old fact nobody looks into Judaism was made up from pieces of Zoroastrians in Persia an Christianity after that it’s no more real than any other god but blessing when it helps you an life is ok mysterious ways when it’s thousands or millions starving dying getting diseases and butchered in places far from you… so mysterious an yet you know his will when life is ok here smfh believe what you want but keeping your head down and suspending reason brings forth monsters it’s ok to keep around as a cute ignorant people of the past thing just remember those great cathedrals
Were built on scamming lying and playing on the desperation of the poorest people of their time.. but worth it huh cuz it’s god will to believe this nonsense is a joke dodo if you like just keep it away from government at all costs and reverence it deserves none individuals who do selfless acts good for them but if you only do kind things because your a dominated owned
Subject of god well enjoy the heaping praise and sprawling on your knees next to the converted child molesters don’t worry it’s mysterious so just sit next to him beg and heap praise on god bud but America is not in any way a Christian nation so say th founding fathers an it’s the most important thing about our country ❤
I guess im crazy bc i still have faith we can get rid of the patriot act. Same with obama care. We just got rid of the EPA car crap. We just need all these old Congress people to die or leave. We need a new type of voting as well. Something more accurate to what the people want, not what 2 senators representing millions vote for. We also need new money, backed by something real. Ill take real gold standard or Bitcoin standard or something similar but the money and the old people are the biggest problems. We also need to make lobbying illegal. If they want to pass a law or fix something they should source the people in the field and ask them, themselves. Not have endless money from pharma or whoever constantly in our government whisperping and even WRITING the bills. Its completely bogus.
Looking forward to this episode
Revelation 17:5 KJV
And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Okay this was super fun to listen to. I was engaged the entire time. I feel like I learned a LOT. Very fun listen!!
Shawn u ve become too big to have such low lvl discussions raise the bar and stop indulging the uneducated audience
Great interview! Jeremy explains all of Roman history in a way that flows and is easy to understand. Awesome
Can you imagine if history in high school was THIS cool?!
God bless you two. Thank you for everything Shawn. I love you brother.
Why are you pushing Chinese and Russia gold makes no sense
If rome fell then how is it almost all the presidents are related?
John Parshall is a wonderful historian
Holy Cow on those coins!! My first ex took all mine lol!😂
Grain Dole = Universal Basic Income (UBI)
Catholics dont want to go there, but the Church is clearly described in Revelation and it isn’t good!
