We looked at the rise and fall of the East India Company, but what came next? This episode, we tunnel into the diamond-encrusted heart of imperial ambition. The life, times, and frankly terrifying wills of Cecil Rhodes, a man who didn't just want to annexe countries, but the future itself. Discover how his dream of a secret society to ensure Anglo-Saxon global dominance was taken up by the formidable Alfred Milner and his "Kindergarten," evolving into the influential Round Table groups. We'll trace the money trail back to the ancient Square Mile – the City of London – and yes, we'll be mentioning the Rothschilds. It's the hidden architecture of early 20th-century power, laid bare. Grab your shovel.
