This week we went deep into the wild life and times of Count Saint Germain—seriously, it’s like this guy was living in a historical action-adventure flick. From time-traveling antics to secret peace talks and political intrigue, Saint Germain’s life was far from boring!
Saint Germain wasn’t just your average storyteller; he was flinging around wisdom that had people scratching their heads in utter amazement. Imagine chatting with someone who’s supposedly 45 but knows way too much for his age. We kicked things off with his involvement in peace talks between King Louis XV and England, which, of course, ended in major political drama and the king ultimately giving him the boot. Even after he warned the king about France losing its New World territories to England, no one took him seriously—bummer.
One of the more eyebrow-raising moments was our chat about the "Le Marchant box" or "cage of desire." It’s some kind of pleasure-inducing object, and yeah, we had our fair share of laughs and innuendos about that one. Plus, we couldn’t ignore how talented he was—50 musical compositions! The man was a one-man symphony.
Things get even more intriguing with the whole immortality or time travel theory, especially since he looked like he hadn’t aged a day for decades. His travels to Persia and India? Just another layer of his knowledge about nature, precious stones, and gem manipulation. Legend has it he could even turn flawed diamonds into something more valuable—alchemy at its finest.
His Russian escapades were straight out of a spy novel. He was involved with Catherine the Great and even disguised himself as a Russian general. Can’t forget about the drama around his supposed death in 1784 either—people aren’t convinced he actually died, which leaves us all scratching our heads and eager for part two.
Our episode was packed with all this intrigue, sprinkled with some of our usual banter and pop culture shoutouts. We even shared some behind-the-scenes fun for our Patreon fam and managed to chat about Colonel Sanders and mashed potatoes. Because, why not?
So, what did we learn? Count Saint Germain’s story is a wild mix of myth, history, and a ton of “wait, what?” moments. He’s a legend for a reason, and we’re just getting started. Stick around for part two—this ride is far from over!
