  • DESCRIPTION
    [Part 1 of 3]
    The Silk Road was an ancient network of trade routes that started in China in the 2nd century B.C. Via a combination of roads, and sea routes, goods like silk, paper and spices were transported from the producers in Asia to markets in Europe. Eventually, it wasn’t just goods that were traded - there were also ideas, customs, religions and even diseases…

    Oddly I couldn’t get into this episode the first few times I started them. However, after 2 rainy days I’ve sat through all 3 parts and found it absolutely mesmerizing and informative. Well done

    This 3-parter is so incredibly thrilling, well-presented, suspenseful, exciting... I agree with commenters on part 3 that this is my favorite bit of podcasting, ever. It's seriously like watching an incredible movie, or reading a novel. Excellent research, excellent narrating! The whole team really knocked it out of the park with this one.

      @PoetofHateSpeech Před 3 lety +3

      Yep I had a similar experience. My then ex gf said your hobby or me... So 5 minutes later I purchased $500 things for my hobby.
      Luckily I did it because she has become such a hypochondriac and jealous if any else gets attention. Her father who I'm still friends with recently has been diagnosed with lung cancer and she is actually acting jealous lol

      Well, if he had just chose her and had abandoned his project, we would have never had any of this but he would have retained his life and freedom up to this day. Instead, we would now have another story in how underground marketplaces for drugs had came out, and Ross would be laughing at that story since he knows he had been there first before but decided to take it down at the proper time.

    • @luzibel289
      @luzibel289 Před 3 lety +1

      Also, Ross was an entrepreneur who have had invested a great amount of time, effort and work to help him succeed at creating the code for the website and then at launching it with an innovative model of business behind it. It isn't surprising at all which path he would have retained. Probably I'll have done the same thing (if I didn't know my nearest future was prison for life).

    What boomers. Drugs aren't the real problem, it's crime around it that is.
    I'm not a Lobertarian but I do believe drugs should be legalised. Before one jumps up and down, remember alcohol is a drug, is legal and most people don't decide to get wasted everyday

      Lobertarian's aren't against making money, in fact some take it to the extreme including thinking that kids should be able to sell themselves to paedophiles.
      What they are against is paying taxes, and having any government control
