Last year we put out an episode called 'Immanentizing the Eschaton'. We looked at the three underlying eschatologies driving conflict between Iran, Israel and the USA.

Fast forward to February 2026, the U.S. and Israel launched Operation Epic Fury, and it's made most people epically furious.

But im not satisfied we really went deep enough, so now that things have boiled over again let's go deeper.

Turns out these modern doomsday cults didn't evolve organically. They were manufactured.

Join us as we track the geopolitical bloodlines of the apocalypse back to the 19th-century drawing rooms of the British Empire. From the linguistic grift that hardwired "Gog and Magog" into the American consciousness, to the English Masonic lodges that birthed radical Islam.

And if that's not enough for you don't worry, there's so much more to come.
