The Jeremy Ryan Slate Show
Jeremy Ryan Slate
The Jeremy Ryan Slate Show is a bi-weekly investigation into how power really works—across history, empires, and the modern world.Each episode draws on two core lenses:Hidden forces behind history—royal murders, lost colonies, financial systems, modern elites, NGOs, propaganda, and the quiet mechanisms that shape events long before they reach the headlines.And the Roman pattern—the idea that today’s crises aren’t new. Currency collapse, political division, border chaos, military overreach—Rome faced them all first. The Roman Empire spent centuries making every mistake a civilization can make, and left behind a playbook we’re following again, page by page.Through expert conversations with historians, researchers, and serious thinkers—and deep dives into primary sources, documents, and records—this show connects ancient history to modern power with evidence, not opinion.You’ll learn to: • Recognize collapse signals before they’re obvious • Understand modern crises through ancient parallels • See how empires actually rise, decay, and fall • Spot the patterns shaping what comes nextFrom medieval conspiracies to modern cover-ups, from Augustus to Constantine, from ancient Rome to today’s global order—this is history as investigation.No spin. No narratives. Just receipts.New episodes twice a week.

96: Cold Showers and the Four Hour Body
Its always been a funny thing to say to someone to "Take a cold shower," but it may be one of the best tips that you have ever been given. There are many benefits of taking a cold shower if you can handle it. I have been doing it for about three weeks now, and in addition to diet, have seen a pretty nice drop in body fat. I recently started reading the 4 Hour Body and have tried a bunch of the crazy experiments to see exactly how they work. I have found many positive results in my body and will continue to experiment and see exactly where this rabbit hole leads. Cold showers burn fat:this is initially what attracted me to them. In the 4 Hour Body, Tim Ferriss speaks about a massive increase in body fat burning. He started by looking at swimmers and why they can consume such a massive amount of calories and not go up in body fat. Their massive amount of swimming, 3-4 hours daily can contribute to this, but they still do not swim enough to burn the massive amount of calories, such as the 12,000 taken in by Michael Phelps a day. When looking at it, they found the high level of heat of the pool really magnified calorie burn, but to an extreme. So a NASA scientist, looking to make himself a bit skinnier and not willing to sit in a pool for 4 hours a day, checked out cold exposure and found that it burned more calories in significantly less time; 10-20 minutes. So Ferriss looked at this and started taking ice baths for 20 minutes a day, I'm totally not doing that because of the immense amount of pain it can potentially create. Then, there was a break through in types of fat that the human body carries. We have two types of fat in our bodies, white and brow. The brown fat is actually a fat that burns other fat, like the type in muscle milk, is stored in the back of your shoulders and activated by extreme cold or extreme heat. So, set your timer for ten minutes, clean yourself quick, then turn the water cold. Make sure to focus all of that shower on the back of your neck and upper shoulders and let the body fat burn! Cold showers boost workout recovery:Ever heard of pro athletes sitting in an ice bath for 20-30 minutes to recover faster? Well, not you can have most of those results in a significantly shorter and less painful time. Cold showers stop lactic acid build up as well as removing inflammation that may be starting in a muscle or the whole body for that matter. Cold showers can enhance mood:your heart rate increases from a cold shower and thus your body process speed up a bit. Therefore, they wake you up and make you feel a bit better by catching your groggy body up with the rest of the world. Cold showers enhance immunity:Remember since cold showers are speeding your metabolism, they are actually speeding up your total metabolic rate. With that comes a greater sense of wellness and a greater ability to fight off disease. You may think I'm bit crazy, but remember to put on a timer. Also, go back and reference the first reason: you only need to do it for ten minutes a day and it only needs to hit your neck and shoulders. Your body will actually really appreciate your new found sense of adventure. Now, go take a cold shower.

95: The Keys to Building a Digital Course — Boomer Mueller and Tyler Tashiro
Boomer Mueller and Tyler Tashiro are hustlers. They very quickly created a podcast called "The Rising Entrepreneur," which saw very quick success. Then, they took their knowledge and in only 48 hours put together the content for their first online training course. The two see not only importance in the originally of their content but also in the speed with which they create it. In this episode, we cover the creation of their course from start to finish; why they acted quickly, why they tried to leave no questions. The two had a pet peeve about other course creators that didn't give all the data, hoping to sell course number two. Rather they wanted to give their customers the best possible product to create a future relationship with them. These two guys believe in going for it, and you're along for the ride. In This Episode: The Importance of Journaling. Why your projects need to be bigger than yourself. The importance of original content. Creating raving fans.

89: Why Your Business Idea Needs to Scale— Vick Tipnes
Vick Tipnes was born in London, England and immigrated to Florida as a young boy with his Family. He always knew that he wanted to be an Entrepreneur from a very young age. He gave college a shot, but after 6 months he decided to drop out and pursue his goals. Vick then struggled through various businesses that he started and sold, but didn’t really reach his full potential, when compared to the image he had in his mind. It wasn’t until he was 35 years old that he really woke up and realized that he needed to truly invest in himself if he was going to become anything in life. Once that ball dropped for him, everything changed. He took massive action to learn and educate himself as much as he could. He became obsessed with bettering himself, and invested every dollar he. At the time he had little or no money, he didn’t even have a sofa, but he had belief in himself. He started Blackstone in 2012; his purpose was to help as many people as he could, through better cost, access and quality. He started this business from a 400 sq.ft office, with no revenue, one employee and a loan from an investor. Today he has over 30 employees and is a multi-million dollar revenue company. He has grown into a national company that does business in over 38 states. In This Episode: The importance of having a scalable business. Why working on yourself is pivotal to success. How familiarity with a vertical can reveal a business opportunity. The timeframe to profitability. The importance of paying your employees first. The importance of learning to observe. The difference between entrepreneur and business owner. The talent to be a CEO, what is it? Vick's Favorite Quote: "Never regret yesterday, life is in you today and you make your tomorrow."
