About This Episode:
Alexander’s Rise: Genius, Ambition, or Conspiracy? In this insightful episode of the Jeremy Ryan Slate Show, we take a deep dive into the unparalleled legacy of Alexander the Great. Was his meteoric rise to power a testament to his military genius, sheer ambition, or shadowed by conspiracies involving secret teachings and forbidden knowledge? Join us as we critically examine his life, from his turbulent youth and tutelage under Aristotle to his breathtaking conquests across 2 million square miles of territory.
Through a unique perspective, we unravel the mysteries of his leadership—his innovative tactics, adoption of foreign cultures, and the whispers of divinity that fueled his self-image. Could hidden alliances or esoteric influences have been the key to his unmatched success? Drawing from sources like Britannica, History.com, and recent archaeological discoveries from 2025, we connect history’s dots to weave a narrative that challenges mainstream perspectives.
This must-watch episode isn’t just about history; it’s about the enduring questions that surround Alexander’s legacy. From family drama and court intrigue to his controversial death—was it natural or a conspiratorial hit?—there’s no shortage of debate. We even explore how modern elites may draw lessons from his divine playbook.

With years of podcasting experience interviewing historians and conspiracy theorists alike, I aim to inspire curiosity and spark meaningful conversations.
