- Did Alexander the Great Know About Rome? | 95
In 323 BC, Alexander the Great lay dying in Babylon after conquering much of the known world, but one question lingers, did he know about Rome?
This episode explores the surprising connections between east and west in the ancient Mediterranean, from Greek colonies in southern Italy to trade networks, embassies, and military campaigns that linked distant civilizations.
Drawing on ancient sources like Livy, Strabo, and Pliny the Elder, we examine whether Alexander had real knowledge of the rising Roman Republic or if later historians exaggerated the connection.
Along the way, we uncover the role of his uncle’s campaign in Italy, the geopolitical reality of Rome during Alexander’s lifetime, and the possibility of a westward campaign that might have changed history forever.

15 min - English Historical Mysteries and Facts That Make No Sense
in 1810, one of the most outrageous pranks in history brought an entire city to a standstill. On a quiet street in London, chaos erupted as chimney sweeps, bakers, doctors, lawyers, and even high-ranking officials flooded a single address, all responding to urgent requests that had never been made.
This is the story of the Berners Street Hoax, a meticulously planned deception carried out by Theodore Hook, a man determined to prove just how easily society could be manipulated.
Over the course of a single day, dozens, then hundreds, of deliveries and visitors overwhelmed 54 Berners Street, turning it into the center of confusion, frustration, and disbelief.
Among those reportedly drawn into the spectacle was Prince Frederick, Duke of York and Albany, highlighting just how far the hoax reached into the upper levels of British society.
In this episode, we break down how the prank was executed, why it worked so effectively in early 19th-century London, and what it reveals about communication, trust, and human behavior long before the age of the internet.
The episode also covers 2 other interesting cases from English history.
