For centuries, the Freemasons have stood at the crossroads of fact and myth, secrecy and symbolism. Presidents, revolutionaries, artists, and ordinary craftsmen have all taken oaths behind closed lodge doors, giving rise to a legacy both admired and feared. In this episode, we cut through conspiracy chatter and look at the institution itself: its medieval origins, its Enlightenment boom, its role in revolutions from Philadelphia to Paris, and the coded rituals still whispered today.   DON'T FORGET TO SUBSCRIBE AND LEAVE A RATING OR A REVIEW!
