    582. Napoleon i Egypten

    Napoleon Bonapartes egyptiska fälttåg är ett av historiens märkligaste militära äventyr. En ung revolutionär general seglar mot pyramiderna med en armé, en flotta och ett helt sällskap av vetenskapsmän. Han besegrar mamlukernas kavalleri, rider in i Kairo som en upplyst farao – och blir sedan avskuren från Europa när Nelson krossar den franska flottan vid Abukir. Vad som börjar som erövring förvandlas snabbt till överlevnad. Vi följer Napoleon från landstigningen i Alexandria, genom ökenmarscher, pestutbrott och brutala belägringar, till det ögonblick då hans österdröm dör vid murarna i Akko. Det är berättelsen om hur sin tids största general för första gången möter nederlag – och hur han därefter lämnar sin armé i Egypten för att segla hem och ta makten i Frankrike. Dysenteri, kanoneld, egyptologi och imperial hybris. Varmt välkomna. Läslista: Blom, Tomas, Napoleon, Historiska Media, Lund, 2024.

    Epstein Files Declassified: Mossad, Israel and Ghislaine Maxwell (Ep 2)

    It has been alleged that Robert Maxwell, father of convicted child sex offender Ghislaine, had connections to the Israeli intelligence agency, Mossad. Through these links, some have suggested that Maxwell recruited Jeffrey Epstein, who then also became an Israeli asset. While this has never been confirmed by Mossad, conspiracy theories are rife.  In their second episode on Epstein’s intelligence connections, David and Gordon examine the validity of these theories and answer the question of whether Epstein was actually a spy. ------------------- Make someone a Declassified Club Member this year – go deeper into the world of espionage with exclusive Q&As, interviews with top intelligence insiders, regular livestreams, ad-free listening, early access to episodes and live show tickets, and weekly deep dives into original spy stories.

    #140 Hakkereita, tietotekniikkaa ja keksintöjä

    Jaksossa keskustelemme hakkereiden ja tietotekniikan historiasta. Pohdimme jaksossa, minkälaisia taitoja hakkereilla on ja minkälaisia kykyjä tietotekniikassa on muutaman vuosisadan aikana tarvittu. Minkälaisia jälkiä hakkerit ovat hyvässä ja pahassa jättäneet tietotekniikan historiaan? Koska on keksitty maailman ensimmäinen tietokone? Onko tietoturvan asiantuntijoita tarvittu yhtä kauan kuin tietotekniikka on ollut käytössä? Jakson vieraana on itseään nörttidosentiksi kutsuva, tietojenkäsittelyn tohtori ja tietokirjailija Linus Nyman. Jakso on toteutettu kaupallisessa yhteistyössä Kustantamo S&S kanssa.
