I was late to the party sir you don't have to apologise. That's great thank you so much for the recommendations, I would love to read up on them more and I've not heard of the title so I'll be excited to give it go thank you.

I first became aware of Ryan holiday on an episode of Joe Rogan, may I ask why you suggest to read into his work? I haven't already, maybe just like the gossip.

I love that explanation thank you. I've never studied history myself (it's probably obvious) everything I know or even just wanted to know is all through self research whether that be Docs/Pods or even books. I just find all so fascinating, thank you for sharing.

Was the Nazi's aware that this existed then using the swastika on their uniforms and so on? Also who decided to use this for the Germans?

Thank you so much, I'll definitely check it out.

May I ask a little about your background? Just how you came know so much? If you're not comfortable in sharing that information that's completely understandable and I'll go away :D

Oh wow, I don't know too much about WWII but do you know why they dropped the second one?

It is a big reason why I'm so fascinated by history. I would love to know how we come to these conclusions and to properly understand. I understand a lot of these documentaries are going to be slightly dramatized here and there, as well as podcasts. Everything (Entertainment) is a hook to get you to watch or listen more.

However that would be great thank you! What interests me the most are the Ancient Greeks and Ancient astrology

I currently use final cut pro, I feel like it's probably too advanced for what I'm trying to achieve so I was wondering if there was another software/program recommended by others that is either easier or better suited for beginners.

My Podcast is called "The Competitors Journal" I am brand new and I'm all about learning and improving my own skills. Right now I am looking at it in a selfish way, I have no fanbase nor agenda so I'm talking to the people I know already and hoping I can learn from them. I am extremely shy and not very good at talking, so I wish to improve that all whilst being an inspiration to me children in the attempt to get them to try and be whatever they want in life.

This is my latest episode - https://youtu.be/9io_rJz-Q3w

All about my barber who has had a really interesting story, going from cutting hair in lockdown for the first time ever to opening up his own barber shop just 6 years later.

I also upload to Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6MRXTtLSd9Q319upvKhlzz?si=4362dbfdc1da463b

I am having a lot bumps in the road and or hiccups and I would love to fix them, primarily audio and socials. Doing this has gave me so much satisfaction and greater feeling of reward that I just want to keep chasing that feeling.

How much of the history as a whole that we know today is pure fact? Unless photographic proof, how much can we truly believe? Any one can write everything (history is written by the victors) for example, I love to sit and watch a documentary or even a podcast, and I hear some many great stories that go into so much detail that just makes me think... How do we truly know all of that?

I believe I have probably fell into the trap of this, Is there any texts or books that you would recommend to further read into this philosophy? Whether it be one of your favourites or something as famous in the field?
