7 - Rasputin Pt 2: Mad Monks & Magic Hats

  • Résumé


  • In part 2 of their Rasputin series, Sam and Toby unravel the rise of the "Mad Monk" as he climbs from mystic peasant to the most trusted confidant of Tsar Nicholas II and Tsarina Alexandra.


    This week they explore Rasputin’s hypnotic influence over Russia’s royal family, his unconventional (and oddly egg-focused) methods and the web of powerful friends and bitter enemies he cultivated along the way.


    Was Rasputin a cunning manipulator, a misunderstood healer, or just a weird holy man with a bizarre sock habit?


    Dive into the scandal, seduction and intrigue of Rasputin’s ascent to power.
