Historian-researcher Michael Anthony Alberta joins Wake Up with Miya to explore “coded history”: how Renaissance actors may have reshaped the past through printing, forgery, and cryptography. We discuss Leon Battista Alberti, repeating “phantom” events, why timelines might be compressed, and who benefits when the record is rewritten. Clear, accessible, and practical—Michael shares simple ways listeners can verify claims for themselves.Guest links: Get Michael’s free book and articles at http://www.michaelanthonyalberta.comand find his videos via his site.Disclaimer The views expressed by the guest are their own and do not necessarily reflect those of this show.
