Did William Shakespeare really write the greatest plays in the English language… or have we been sold a 400-year-old lie?

For centuries, schools, universities, and institutions have defended the official story of a small-town actor with no higher education, no travel record, and barely any surviving documents — somehow becoming the most brilliant writer who ever lived.

But the deeper you look, the stranger it gets.

In today’s episode, we dive into the Shakespeare authorship conspiracy — exploring why so many historians now question whether Shakespeare was the real author… and who the true writer might have been.

We break down the three most compelling suspects:

🔥 Edward de Vere — aristocrat, scholar, multilingual traveler

🔥 Francis Bacon — philosopher, political insider, alleged code-writer

🔥 Christopher Marlowe — genius playwright whose death may have been faked

And the biggest question of all:

Why would the elite hide the identity of the real author — and what does this reveal about power, culture, and history itself?

Was Richard III really the child-murdering villain Shakespeare portrayed…or the victim of one of history’s greatest smear campaigns?

In this deep-dive conversation, I’m joined by historian and Gone Medieval host Matt Lewis to unpack the truth behind Richard III, the Princes in the Tower, Tudor propaganda, and the infamous bigamy claim that changed the English succession.

We dig into:

* Did Richard III order the deaths of the Princes in the Tower?

* How Henry Tudor rewrote history to justify his own reign

* Shakespeare’s role in cementing Richard as the ultimate villain

* The bigamy allegation against Edward IV and what it really meant

* New research and projects challenging the traditional story

If you’re obsessed with the Wars of the Roses, the Tudors, medieval power politics, or just love overturning the “official” version of history, this episode is for you.

Imagine flying over the Bahamas on a routine trip… and suddenly finding yourself inside a rotating tunnel of clouds, your instruments failing, your compass spinning, and time itself no longer making sense.

In this episode of the Jeremy Ryan Slate Show, pilot Bruce Gernon shares the full story of his infamous 1970 flight through the Bermuda Triangle — the day he encountered a strange “lenticular” cloud, a spinning vortex tunnel, “electronic fog,” and a possible space-time warp that got him to Miami in nearly half the normal flight time.

Bruce breaks down:

* What he saw inside the vortex tunnel over the Great Bahama Bank

* How the mysterious electronic fog attached itself to his plane

* Why his instruments and compass went crazy

* How scientists now use his experience to study warp drive and space-time

* Why he believes the Bermuda Triangle is real — and what might be behind it

If you’re fascinated by the Bermuda Triangle, time anomalies, and real-world “history’s mysteries,” you do not want to miss this conversation.
