Teddy Roosevelt Nearly Died in a Cavalry Charge Against German Machine Guns in WW1

Sat, 26 Aug 2023 09:10:02 +0000

Teddy Roosevelt faced many challenges at the end of his life. Racked by rheumatism, a ticking embolism, pathogens in his blood, a bad leg from an accident, and a bullet in his chest from an assassination attempt. But none of that stopped Roosevelt from attempting to reassemble the Rough Riders for a final charge against the Germans in World War One, pushing them into a likely suicide mission of a cavalry attack against 50 caliber machine guns.

Suffering from grief and guilt, marginalized by world events, the great glow that had been his life was now but a dimming lantern. But TR’s final years were productive ones as well: he churned out several “instant” books that promoted U.S. entry into the Great War, and he was making plans for another run at the Presidency in 1920 at the time of his death. Indeed, his political influence was so great that his opposition to the policies of Woodrow Wilson helped the Republican Party take back the Congress in 1918. To look at Roosevelt’s final years, Scott Rank, host of History Unplugged, speaks with Bill Hazelgrove, author of “The Last Charge of the Rough Rider.” It was Roosevelt’s quest for the “vigorous life” that, ironically, may have led to his early demise at the age of sixty. "The Old Lion is dead,” TR’s son Archie cabled his brother on January 6, 1919, and so, too, ended a historic era in American life and politics.

Key Battles Of American History - An Unsettled World Germany and the Allies 1918-1930

Mon, 17 Apr 2023 10:00:02 +0000

The roots of the Second World War in Europe lie within the First World War. The 1919 Treaty of Versailles formally ended the war between Germany and the western Allies, but the geopolitical situation it created was far from stable. Ten years later, the Great Depression made things even worse. In this episode preview from Key Battles of American History (the first in the World War II in Europe series), James and cohost Sean McIver discuss the unsettled state of Europe between 1918 and 1930 and the gradual fracturing of the uneasy peace that it enjoyed.

They Live: Body Slamming Science Fiction, Social Commentary and Aliens

Thu, 09 Feb 2023 09:00:01 +0000

Today, we will be discussing the 1988 movie They Live, directed by John Carpenter. They Live is a science fiction, action, and horror film that tells the story of a drifter who discovers a pair of sunglasses that allows him to see the world as it really is: a dystopia controlled by aliens hiding among us. The protagonist, played by Roddy Piper, must then fight against the aliens and their control over humanity. The movie explores themes of consumerism, conformity, and class struggle, as the aliens control the world through their manipulation of media and consumer goods. The film also touches on themes of individuality and the power of dissent, as the protagonist fights against the aliens and their control. They Live received mixed reviews upon its release, but has since become a cult classic. It has been praised for its commentary on consumerism and its memorable fight scene, which has been parodied in various forms of media. They Live is a thought-provoking film that still resonates today, with its commentary on consumerism, conformity, and class struggle. If you haven't seen it, we highly recommend checking it out. Thanks for listening, and join us next time for more movie discussions!

Two Days in November Sam Giancana, The Chicago Mafia and the Kennedy Assassination

Thu, 26 Jan 2023 09:00:02 +0000

In this episode of the podcast, we will be discussing the soon to be released movie written by Nick Celozzi, which delves into the John F Kennedy assassination and the possible involvement of Sam Giancana and the Chicago Mafia. Nick Celozzi is the nephew of Chicago Mafia boss, Sam Giancana. The movie, which is based on extensive research and the personal recollections of Nick and his uncles, suggests that the assassination of President Kennedy was not just the work of Lee Harvey Oswald, but rather a larger conspiracy involving powerful individuals and organizations. One of the key players in this theory is Sam Giancana, the head of the Chicago Mafia at the time of the assassination. Giancana had a strong motive for wanting Kennedy out of office, as the President was actively working to undermine organized crime in the United States. The movie also presents evidence of a possible connection between Giancana and Oswald, as well as other individuals and groups who may have been involved in the assassination. If you're interested in learning more about the John F Kennedy assassination, the new movie written by Nick Celozzi, and the possible involvement of Sam Giancana and the Chicago Mafia, be sure to check out this episode and use the following hashtags to join the conversation: #JFKassassination #NickCelozzi #SamGiancana #ChicagoMafia #conspiracytheory #coverup #Kennedyassassination Original Publication Date: 1/26/2023 Learn More About our Guest: Nick Celozzi https://www.monaco-films.com/ You can learn more about Beyond the Big Screen and subscribe at all these great places: www.atozhistorypage.com www.beyondthebigscreen.com Click here to support Beyond the Big Screen! https://www.subscribestar.com/beyondthebigscreen https://www.patreon.com/beyondthebigscreen Click to Subscribe: https://www.spreaker.com/show/4926576/episodes/feed email: steve@atozhistorypage.com www.beyondthebigscreen.com https://www.patreon.com/historyofthepapacy Parthenon Podcast Network Home: parthenonpodcast.com On Social Media: https://www.facebook.com/groups/atozhistorypage https://www.facebook.com/HistoryOfThePapacyPodcast https://twitter.com/atozhistory Music Provided by: "Crossing the Chasm" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License

If Alexander The Great Hadn’t Died, He Might Have Conquered Europe, Circumnavigated Africa, and Built His Own Silk Road “And Alexander wept, seeing as he had no more worlds to conquer.” That’s a quote from Hans Gruber in Die Hard, which is a very convoluted paraphrase from Plutarch’s essay collection “Moralia.” Despite the questionable sourcing, there’s plenty of truth in that unattributed quote from Mr. Gruber. Alexander the Great’s death at 323 BC in Babylon marked the end of the most consequential military campaign in antiquity. He left behind an empire that stretched from Greece to India, planted the seeds of the Silk Road, and made Greek an international language across Eurasia, all in 13 short years. He became and remained the biggest celebrity in the ancient world, probably only replaced by Jesus a few centuries into the Christian era. But what if he had not died as a young man? What if he had lived years or decades more? How much more influence could he have had? We have clues about Alexander’s plans for the future – and they come from Greek chroniclers Diodorus and Arrian, writing centuries after his death. They include conquering the Mediterranean coast all the way to the Pillars of Hercules (Rock of Gibraltar), building a tomb for his father Philp that would be as large as the Great Pyramid of Giza, and transplanting populations from Greece to Persia and vice versa to unite his domains through intermarriage. To explore this hypothetical scenario is Anthony Everitt, author of “Alexander the Great: His Life and Mysterious...

When Movies and Books Depart and Converge

Thu, 01 Dec 2022 09:00:02 +0000

Today we will shoot for the stars and maybe shoot some bugs as we talk about the 1997 film Starship Troopers. The movie is based on the 1959 novel Starship Troopers by Robert Heinlein. In this episode, Mustache Chris and I will talk about some of the big themes about society and humanity that this film and movie bring up.

Vampires Taken Seriously – Fright Night

Thu, 27 Oct 2022 09:00:02 +0000

Today, we are going to take a chomp out of the 2011 vampire movie Fright Night. The 2011 version of Fright Night is a remake of the 1985 cult classic original. The 2011 version takes some of the satirical elements of the original, but with a pre-covid early 2000s twist. This movie has more going on than it appears at first glance.

Sci-Fi Meets Horror: The Thing

Thu, 20 Oct 2022 09:00:02 +0000

This year for Halloween, instead of talking about one movie, Mustache Chris and I are going to talk about three! For the next few weeks, we will look at horror movies from a few different perspectives. Today, we have the horror/sci-fi classic, John Carpenter’s The Thing from 1982. This movie blends and bends genres and styles. Does this 40 year old move still scare? Let’s find out!

Big Fans Gone Too Far

Thu, 13 Oct 2022 09:00:10 +0000

Sports fanatics make professional sports even more engaging than they already are. To the biggest fans, professional sports turns from a hobby or a diversion to something approaching religion. At what point does professional sports fanaticism go too far? Mustache Chris and I will try to find the line that some fans cross or maybe we will further blur it.

The Changing Face of American Football Texas Style

Thu, 06 Oct 2022 09:00:02 +0000

Today we are joined yet again by our regular contributor and cohost Chris to talk about the 1979 football classic North Dallas 40. This movie exemplifies the hard life of football players both on and off the field. This was the time of the real change of football from a sport to a multi-billion dollar business. Have sports lost some magic since this time period?

Clear Buck

Thu, 29 Sep 2022 09:00:02 +0000

Buck Weaver was a third baseman of incredible raw talent during the years immediately before and following World War 1. He was a member of the legendary 1919 Chicago White Sox. Poor Buck went down with the players who threw the World Series, but should he have had his career destroyed? We are joined today by Dr. David Fletcher of the Clear Buck Foundation to make a case for why Buck Weaver should have his named cleared, even though these events occurred well over a century ago.

Possibly the Greatest Sports Team of All Time – The 1919 Chicago Black Sox

Thu, 22 Sep 2022 09:00:03 +0000

In today’s episode, Chris and Steve pick up our mitts and try to get to the bottom of the story of the Chicago Black Sox of 1919. Was this team the greatest sports team of all time? Why would such an incredible team throw away their pride and drive to win for a rather small amount of money? This story gets more and more complicated!

In today’s episode, Chris and Steve swing for the fences and talk about the history, background and controversy around the 1919 World Series. We will use the movie and book 8 Men Out, along with recently released documents from the Society for American Baseball Research’s Black Sox Scandal project to think about why arguable the greatest team to have ever stepped onto a baseball field would purposefully lose the World Series. Why do you think they would?

Joseph is More than a Colorful Coat

Thu, 30 Jun 2022 09:00:03 +0000

Title: Joseph is More than a Colorful Coat

Description: Today we are joined by frequent guest of the History of the Papacy, but first time guest on Beyond the Big Screen, Gil Kidron of A Podcast of Biblical Proportions. We talk about the year 2000 animated film Joseph: Man of Dreams. Is this movie another kids film that misses the point of a biblical story or does it get the story more right than it even should have?

Events that Should Be History, A Parthenon Exclusive

Tue, 21 Jun 2022 09:00:02 +0000

All of us have terrible regrets. Accepting that job that became dead-end. Marry someone from high school who ended up being a kleptomaniac with halitosis. Emptying out our life savings to invest in Logan and Jake Paul’s NFT collections. Don’t you wish you could take it all back?
While we can’t help you with your personal problems, we are pleased to let you know that the hosts of the history programs that make up Parthenon Podcasts are here to get rid of some of the worst events in history and cleaning up our timeline. In just one hour, we will do the following:

•Prevent the Civil War and Emancipate all U.S. slaves in 1861
•Prevent Saddam Hussein from seizing power in Iraq, thus prevent the Iran-Iraq War and both Gulf Wars
•Prevent half a century’s worth of conspiracy theories that sprung up in the wake of the JFK assassination
•Accelerate the invention of the printing press by 1,500 years by stopping the Bronze Age Collapse
Hope you enjoy this talk with James Early from Key Battles of American History, Josh Cohen from Eyewitness History, Steve Guerra from History of the Papacy and Beyond the Big Screen, Richard Lim from This American President, and Scott Rank from History Unplugged.

I want to thank Scott Rank of the History Unplugged, James Early of the Key Battles of American History Podcast, Josh Cohen of the Eyewitness History Podcast and Richard Lim of This American President for all coming together for another great Parthenon Network round up episode on what event would we delete from history. In previous round up collaborations, we’ve killed historical characters, we’ve saved historical characters, well now were are going to edit out important events from history and see what happens. Who knows? You’ll have to listen to find out!
Look for more of these episodes from the Parthenon Podcast Network. To see show notes and learn more about these great podcasts, go over to Parthenon podcast dot com. If you have an idea for a Round Up episode, please send me an email or reach out on social media. You can send me an email to steve at a to z history page dot com or find me on social media platforms at A to Z history. I will talk to you soon!

Inglorious World War 2

Thu, 26 May 2022 09:00:02 +0000

We are joined by Josh Cohen of the Eyewitness History Podcast as we work our way through each of Quentin Tarantino’s films. This time we are talking about 2009’s Inglorious Basterds. This is a complicated movie. As with all Tarantino movies, it is incredibly well acted, has a complicated plot and a ton of violence. Does the violence take away from the clever aspects of the movie?

Parthenon Roundtable: Which Person From History Would You Keep From Dying Too Soon? (And You Can’t Choose JFK)

Sat, 19 Feb 2022 12:00:02 +0000

A couple of months ago, the guys from Parthenon Podcast Network (James Early, Key Battles of American History; Steve Guerra, History of the Papacy; Richard Lim, This American President; and Scott Rank, History Unplugged) discussed who they would erase from history of they could. This time, instead of destroying, we are going to do some saving. If you could save one person in history from an untimely death, who would it be? How would their survival make a positive impact?

The only ground rule is that you can’t choose JFK. Stephen King already showed us this was impossible in 11/22/63.

Men's gold metal hockey team as portrayed through the 2004. Miracle. I highly suggest you listen to power. One of this episode before we drop the puck on power too.
Don't worry. We'll be waiting for you beyond the big screen.
Per Brooks got this team together just when they're getting ready to go to lake Placid for the Olympics, they played a series of games against different teams. How did those turn out for the team USA team did her Brooks [00:01:00] demonstrate and those early games that they were ready to take on the Soviet juggernaut team two to two examples.
One is famous. Anybody who knows the story is going to get to know this one. They play. Team Norway. And they tied them three to three. And Herb's mind that is a game they should have won outright. No two ways about it. They should have destroyed team Norway because Hurd had been training them so hard that they were in the best shape of their lives.
He said that you might not be the most skilled team in this. But I swear to God, you will be the most conditioned. And it's, it's funny. I have to deviate for a second with my own local team, the blue jackets, we got a new president of hockey operations a few years ago. I don't know if he consciously borrowed this from herb or if it was just the planets aligning or what, but he said, you know, we might not be the most talented team out there, but we will be the best condition we will [00:02:00] play all, all 60 minutes.
And I thought that was a really good way to do it. Cause you can lose a game. And the flick of a switch. I mean, it, it's, it's very easy. And so you, you, you want to play all out all the time and, um, and that's what herb was doing to them and getting them in shape for, because. If they couldn't do that against a quote unquote...

Help us understand and more deeply enjoy. Our next step is sewed on the 2008 film. The wrestler, you can enjoy these episodes separately, but they're an excellent pair as a tag team. And I know you're really excited to talk about this topic. Yeah. Because. I don't think people really understand just how deep wrestling history is and like how far back it goes and how, we're only going to be scratching the surface on this...

, [00:00:00] this is beyond the big screen podcast with your host, Steve Guerra. Welcome back to beyond the big screen today, we are very happy to be joined by Eric of the reconsider podcast. And today we're going to take a deep dive into the movie blade runner 2049. And if you listened to last week's episode, we talked about blade runner from 1982.
So these are two great episodes to listen to back to back. Uh, so I highly suggest you go back and listen to. Episode, but it's not required, obviously, uh, not so much because you need that as background knowledge for this movie or episode it's just because it was a great show. So thank you so much, Eric, for being on today.
Yeah, my pleasure. I love your show and I love this movie and I love talking about great. Thank [00:01:00] you. So reconsider as a podcast about politics and news, but it's really much more than just the news of the day sort of thing that you can get on TV or radio Zander and Erik, which I'm sad to say. Zander, wasn't able to join us today.
But they help you contextualize current politics and history and the broader forces and in political theory. Reconsider helps you rise above the one-liners the 140 character politics and the tribal narratives, their motto is we don't do the thinking for you and they really don't. And that's why I think it's such an amazing podcast.
Do you have anything you could add to that, Eric? No, thanks, man. I, I think one of the things that I really like about reconsiders that Zander and I don't always agree on everything and we do a great job. I think showcasing how to discuss stuff in a way. Um,...

Parthenon Podcast Roundtable: Who Would You Eliminate From History? (And No, You Can’t Choose Hitler)

Sat, 01 Jan 2022 10:00:02 +0000

Today is a group discussion in which the four guys that make up the Parthenon Podcast Network (Steve Guerra from Beyond the Big Screen, Richard Lim from This American President, James Early from Key Battles of American History, and Scott Rank from History Unplugged) discuss a beloved hypothetical that our listeners have separately asked each of us many times: if you could eliminate one person from our timeline, who would it be?

And to force us to think outside of the box, we've eliminated Hitler as a choice. That one is too obvious.
