In this episode of The History AI Podcast, Chuck and Marco dive into the life and legacy of Ramesses the Great, Egypt’s longest-reigning and most ambitious pharaoh. From his early days as a warrior prince to his colossal building projects and his legendary family of over 100 children, Ramesses II crafted a legacy that still towers over Egypt—literally. Discover how he turned a near-disastrous battle into a propaganda masterpiece, why he’s often linked to the biblical Exodus, and how his mummy ended up with its own passport. Whether you’re a history buff or just curious about ancient power players, this episode is packed with epic tales, surprising facts, and a dash of royal drama.
Stick around until the end to hear “Ramesses II - The God King” by BL&C, a powerful track that perfectly captures the grandeur and might of Egypt’s iconic pharaoh.
