Send us a text Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is walk away. In this episode I explore the lives of two men who understood that truth better than anyone: Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus and George Washington. These were leaders who were given immense power during times of crisis. They led with strength and resolve. But when their duty was done, they stepped down. They went home. This isn’t just a history lesson. Whether you’re building a business, navigating a relationship, leading ...

Christianity's First Rival: The Cult of Mithras - Ep.4
Send us a text Before the cross, there was the bull and dagger. Before churches rose across Rome, underground temples echoed with chants to a forgotten god. In this episode of Talks History, we dive into the shadowy world of Mithras—the bull-slaying mystery deity who once rivaled Jesus for the soul of the Roman Empire. Who was this caped god born from stone, worshiped by emperors and legionaries alike? Why did Mithraism flourish across the empire only to vanish without a trace? And what might...

Can Sports Prevent War? - Ep. 2
Send us a text In this episode of Talks History, I explore a question that’s been quietly echoing in my mind for weeks: do sports actually prevent war, or are they just another arena for our instinct toward violence? The more I looked into it, the more I became captivated by how deeply modern sports reflect the language and structure of warfare. We draft players like soldiers, we suit them in uniforms, we rally around tribal banners, and we praise strategic assaults like blitzing the quarterb...

3 Ingredients of Apocalypse - Ep. 1
Send us a text I remember distinctly from the early 2010s that it felt like we were culturally obsessed with the end of the world. Everywhere you looked — movies, TV shows, video games — we were surrounded by visions of apocalypse: zombie outbreaks, nuclear wastelands, collapsing civilizations. But why were we so fascinated by it? And what if the end of the world wasn’t just fiction? In this episode, we explore three moments in history where the apocalypse wasn’t imagined — it was real. The S...
