118. The Congo Free State I: King Leopold's Dream

This week, in part one of a new series, we discuss one of the greatest cons ever perpetrated in the modern age: The 19th century formation of the Congo ‘Free’ State under King Leopold of the Belgians. While in Europe Leopold was lauded as a progressive, modernist monarch, his legacy in Central Africa is one of brutality, suffering, and the wanton slaughter of millions; all in the singular pursuit of profit and financial gain. Buckle up, buckaroos. We’re in for a rough one.

114. Ancient Mysteries VI: Roman Britannia, pt. 1

We continue our long running Ancient Mysteries series this week with the beginning of a deep dive into Roman Britain and its rituals and customs. Today we begin by looking at the Druids of Britannia in the 1st Century BCE before the coming of the Romans and look at the attitudes of the Romans to the Druids during and after the conquest of Britannia. Then, we will discuss how the Roman era of Britannia brought new cults to the island and its traditions.
