Benjamin Jacobs is the host of the Wittenberg to Westphalia podcast. His show is focused on the history of Europe with much of the content to date covering the Middle Ages chronologically. He comes on for this interview to discuss the Early Modern Period which broadly covers the time period between the fall of the Roman Empire through the Reformation. This is the third installment of our discussion. We get into the Medici, Big Tech, the evolution of the social system, the Reformation, decentralization, power behind the scenes, and more.

Part 3 of the Corona Virus Special. To wrap up this series, the focus will be on institutions, groups, and larger power players. These would be international corporations, foundations, world groups (WHO, World Bank, etc.), and governments. Mixed with this are some observations on tech, data, and surveillance and how these are contributing to the shifts being paralleled in season 2.

This is part 2 of the Corona Virus Special. I focus on the impact of this pandemic on individuals and the social psyche along with a few tangents on related information from previous episodes. I also highlight some solutions to go with these problems in the form of agorism and self sufficiency.

This is a special episode in light of the Covid-19 pandemic and the synchronicities between current events and the themes of Season 2. I've been discussing shifts in power, economics, politics, institutions, etc. and we are seeing many similar shifts playing out today. I'm taking a few episodes to highlight these parallels. This opening episode of the "Corona Special Series" is focused on an overview, my personal opinions, links to 9/11, technocracy, and the Reformation, some "conspiracy theories", ties to other content covered in the past and in upcoming episodes, and much more.

Steve Guerra is the host of the History of the Papacy Podcast, which began in 2013. In 2017, Steve began working on Beyond the Big Screen, a podcast which delves into the fascinating stories behind films through lively interviews. In this final segment of our interview, part 3, we talk about the "invention" of the numerical value of 0, the 30 years war, and a lot about institutional shifts both then and now. Although this was recorded before the corona virus outbreak, there are many aspects discussed that are very applicable with current events.
