The Rest Is History
656. The Ku Klux Klan: Birth of a Nation (Part 3)
How did the second incarnation of the clan, born in Georgia in 1915, grow into a seemingly indomitable nation-wide fraternal organisation, numbering millions? Who were its new targets? And, with the Klan’s momentum seemingly unstoppable and an election on the horizon, would their appalling violence be publicly condemned?
Join Tom and Dominic as they chart the second rise of the violent, tyrannical, Ku Klux Klan….

The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul Alex
Building Emotional Calluses
If one bad client, refund, or comment can ruin your day…
You’re not ready for scale yet.
In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down the importance of building emotional calluses—the ability to handle pressure, criticism, and client friction without losing focus or momentum.
As your business grows, so does the volume of problems. More clients means more feedback, more complaints, and more situations that test your patience and emotional control.
The key isn’t avoiding problems…
It’s learning how to handle them without letting them control you.
Paul explains how elite entrepreneurs detach emotion from outcomes, enforce strong boundaries, and operate from logic instead of reacting to every situation.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why friction with clients is normal and expected at scale
How taking things personally can hurt your performance and decision-making
Why enforcing boundaries protects your time, energy, and margins
How developing emotional resilience helps you stay consistent under pressure
You can’t control how people act…
But you can control how you respond.
Because when you build emotional strength and stay grounded, nothing in the market can shake your focus—and that’s what separates average entrepreneurs from elite operators.

Smile
They say that smiling requires fewer muscles than frowning, so why not smile? That doesn’t seem to be true, or at least unproven, and there is lots more about smiling that will keep you glued to your earbuds in this fun episode.

The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul Alex
The Danger of the Backup Plan - Absolute Commitment
A backup plan can feel safe.
But sometimes it is the very thing keeping you from going all in.
In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why absolute commitment is one of the strongest forces in business.
Let’s be real…
If you are keeping one foot out the door…
If you are constantly preparing for failure…
If you are already planning your escape route…
You are not fully committed to the mission.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why Plan B can distract you from Plan A
How partial commitment creates partial results
Why hunger forces creativity, urgency, and execution
How burning the boats can unlock a completely different level of performance
The truth is simple:
Comfort does not create massive breakthroughs.
Pressure does.
When your back is against the wall…
When failure is not an option…
When retreat is no longer available…
You start executing differently.
You move faster.
You think sharper.
You fight harder.
Most people want the rewards of going all in…
While still keeping the safety of the shore behind them.
But if you want to take the island…
You have to burn the boats.
Stop preparing to fail.
Cut the backup plan.
Trust your work ethic.
And commit fully to the future you say you want.
