What does it mean to be great—truly great? Once, the title was thundered through history: Alexander the Great, Catherine the Great, Peter the Great. It meant something vast, undeniable—power, vision, audacity, and impact that bent the world.

But today? The word feels… dusty. Loaded. Hesitant.

In this episode, Keith asks the uncomfortable questions: What really defines greatness? Is it conquest, cultural legacy, or something deeper? Have we moved beyond the age of towering individuals—or are we simply afraid to name greatness when we see it?

From ancient empires to modern hesitation, join us as we dive into the lives that shaped history—and the shadows they cast on a world that no longer knows what to do with them. Greatness may not be gone… but it may be harder to recognize than ever.
