Cesare Borgia: The Rise and Fall of Power's Mastermind

CYOL with Jeremy Ryan Slate Archive 1

Step into the captivating world of Renaissance power plays in this insightful episode, "Cesare Borgia: The Rise and Fall of Power's Mastermind." Join us as we take a deep dive into the life and legacy of Cesare Borgia, the cunning warlord who inspired Niccolò Machiavelli's "The Prince." Was Cesare a visionary leader on the brink of unifying Italy, or a reckless tactician undone by fate? Through a critical examination of his meteoric rise and eventual downfall, we uncover the raw truths about power, ambition, and the fragile balance of control.

In this must-watch episode, we explore Machiavelli's fascination with Cesare's ruthless strategies, from his swift conquests to his chilling acts of betrayal, and the pivotal role his father, Pope Alexander VI, played in his ascent. We also analyze the lasting impact of Machiavelli's "The Prince" on modern politics, corporate leadership, and personal ambition—offering a unique perspective on why this 500-year-old text remains a blueprint for power in 2025.

As the CEO and co-founder of Command Your Brand, I’m passionate about helping individuals combat cancel culture and amplify their voices in new media. Together, we’ll unpack the lessons from Cesare Borgia’s story, while asking the big questions: Who controls the narrative? How do we prepare for the unexpected? And who are today’s masterminds of power, one step away from triumph—or collapse?
