Speaker 1: came home the other day to present Marisa Marissa. You
1:12
Speaker 1: know what, I'm going to say both of those names,

3:48
Speaker 1: the show notes. But I know what you're thinking. You're thinking,
3:50
Speaker 1: quite your gibber jabber in fact me, In fact you
3:53
Speaker 1: I will. But first we've got to get our source on.
3:57
Speaker 1: So we have my father by Maria Resputin.
4:03
Speaker 2: The Resputin File by Edvard Dzinsky, Prelude to the Revolution,
4:07
Speaker 2: The Murder of Resputin by Ronald Simo, and Resputin The
4:12
Speaker 2: Untold Story by Joseph Furman.
4:15
Speaker 1: So let's start from the beginning, shall we, Matrila, Oh,
4:19
Speaker 1: I should also apologize straight away if I pronounce things incorrectly.
4:24
Speaker 1: I am trying my best, and I would like to
4:27
Speaker 1: hopefully use the excuse of the fact that I'm will
4:30
Speaker 1: signing to say, but please, please don't be too mean
4:34
Speaker 1: to me, considering the only thing I can say in
4:36
Speaker 1: Russian is I can say de lubia, but I can
4:40
Speaker 1: the only sentence I can say is Despina need to
4:43
Speaker 1: be jatibiat, and I'd probably pronounce him that wrong anyway.
4:45
Speaker 3: So Madriona Kurrigoryevna Rasputina was born on the twenty seventh
4:51
Speaker 3: of March eighteen ninety eight, not eighteen ninety nine, which
4:55
Speaker 3: actually says in our tombstone, but eighteen ninety eight. For
5:00
Speaker 3: years they thought it was, you know, a year later.
5:04
Speaker 3: But when the fall of the USSR the Soviet Union
5:07
Speaker 3: a lot of Russian records were opened up, they were
5:10
Speaker 3: unsealed and it had her birthdate.
5:12
Speaker 1: So now we know so yeah, she was born in
5:16
Speaker 1: this peasant village in Siberia to Gregory Rasputin and his
5:22
Speaker 1: wife Braskovia Fyodorovna Dobrovna. So yeah, she's from this wee
5:28
Speaker 1: village Pokrovskoy. I feel like I've pronounced that really wrong.
5:33
Speaker 1: In September nineteen ten, she went to Kazan and then
5:37
Speaker 1: on to Saint Petersburg. She would have been about twelve
5:40
Speaker 1: ish tirl yenish around about that time, and changed her
5:43
Speaker 1: name from Madriona to Maria to kind of to make
5:48
Speaker 1: her upwardly mobile, because her name would have been quite
5:53
Speaker 1: a peasantye name, to be honest, kind of peasante. Because
5:57
Speaker 1: she had social aspirations, she needed to make her name
6:01
Speaker 1: more befitting that. So Maria and her wee sister Varvara,
6:06
Speaker 1: they go along over Sputin to Saint Petersburg so he
6:09
Speaker 1: can make them little ladies, you know, to give him
6:12
Speaker 1: a better chance at life. Erika all that jazz, all
6:15
Speaker 1: the stuff that you know, women would have needed at
6:18
Speaker 1: that time. Cough cough. So they were refused to entry
6:21
Speaker 1: to the Smoley Institute, which was like what fun fact,
6:25
Speaker 1: was established by Catherine the Great as a way of
6:28
Speaker 1: providing formal education for girls, so they get well, they
6:31
Speaker 1: don't get in there, and they end up going to
6:33
Speaker 1: the Stublin Commenscape private prep school in nineteen thirteen, so
6:38
Speaker 1: she would have been about fifteen ish, I think fourteen,
6:40
Speaker 1: fifteen fifty. That's it. So things are going all right
6:43
Speaker 1: in Saint Petersburg. They're trying to climb the social ladder.
6:47
Speaker 1: Things are going not so bad. You see, in the
6:52
Speaker 1: summer of nineteen fourteen, a woman, believing Grigory Wesputin to
6:57
Speaker 1: be the anti Christ to assassinate him, and she did
7:02
Speaker 1: it by stabbing a knife through his abdomen. And this event,
7:09
Speaker 1: basically this attack really ignites a change in Gregory Resputin
7:15
Speaker 1: and his behavior. It's like a it's like a flip
7:18
Speaker 1: switches and like with someone, like quite a lot of
7:21
Speaker 1: people who deal with trauma, he turns to alcohol, specifically
7:26
Speaker 1: tissert Winds, which have a really fucking high alcohol content.
7:31
Speaker 1: He and the other thing that people who suffer trauma
7:34
Speaker 1: also do. He really leans into religion. So he gets
7:38
Speaker 1: well into the Russian Orthodox, like really into this faith.
7:43
Speaker 1: He learns he like he's learning all about magnetism and
7:46
Speaker 1: it's uses in the human body, and this becomes the base,
7:50
Speaker 1: the foundation or whatever for his like healing hands and
7:55
Speaker 1: his magic healing skills, his mysticism and shit sae resputing
7:59
Speaker 1: is a he's known as the mad Monk, but he
8:02
Speaker 1: wasn't even seen as a monk at the time, like
8:05
Speaker 1: he was seen as a was it a steret or
8:07
Speaker 1: something starret basically like a pilgrim thing. He was like
8:11
Speaker 1: a just a mystic, a pilgrim, a healer, not necessarily
8:16
Speaker 1: a monk. I think it's more based on attire, really clothing.
8:21
Speaker 1: But okay, so because he's hanging out with the Romanovs
8:25
Speaker 1: and he seems to be the only one that can
8:28
Speaker 1: cure way Alexey. So Alexei is the he's the son
8:32
Speaker 1: of the Zar Nichels a second, and he's a hemophiliac,
8:36
Speaker 1: and he's got like a bunch of stuff wronger than me,
8:38
Speaker 1: Like he has like shakes and other kind of stuff,
8:42
Speaker 1: and Rasputin is the only one who can like calm
8:45
Speaker 1: him with the fuck down and ease him and relax
8:49
Speaker 1: him and stop his bleeding somehow. But yep, okay, you
8:55
Speaker 1: know what, that was pretty dismissive. No, seriously, Alexei. He
8:58
Speaker 1: had this condition called homophilia, which was known as the
9:01
Speaker 1: royal disease because he had inherited it from Queen Victoria, who.
9:06
Speaker 4: Was effectively the grandmother of all the royal day in Europe.
9:10
Speaker 4: It cared it pretty severe in fairness, so to the
9:12
Speaker 4: point where he actually had two navy officers sort of
9:17
Speaker 4: around him at all times, basically taking care of him
9:20
Speaker 4: and making sure he didn't injure himself, because if he
9:22
Speaker 4: got an internal hemorrhage of any kind, it literally could
9:26
Speaker 4: be it literally could be basically the end for him,
9:30
Speaker 4: and at one point it almost was. This very scenario
9:33
Speaker 4: happened and they thought he was going to die until
9:38
Speaker 4: Resputant entered and basically healed him somehow, like the swelling
9:46
Speaker 4: went down, the fever went away, he stopped fucking screaming like.
9:51
Speaker 4: Because there was this whole secrecy thing, Alexi's condition was
9:55
Speaker 4: very much kept stumpstum that you know, it wasn't really
10:00
Speaker 4: brought up so nobody, So we don't really have records
10:03
Speaker 4: of how Resputin managed to heal.
10:06
Speaker 1: Alexei or what exactly he was healing him from. We
10:11
Speaker 1: only have snippets here and there, so resputing. Because of
10:15
Speaker 1: his like healing hands and shit, he becomes this fucking
10:18
Speaker 1: sensation in Russia. And because he's the only person that
10:22
Speaker 1: can really deal with Alexe, he becomes incredibly close to
10:27
Speaker 1: the Czar and the arena. Effectively he's part of the furniture.
10:31
Speaker 1: And because he is so, as his daughter Maria, who
10:35
Speaker 1: is like pretty close in age to the rest of
10:37
Speaker 1: the the Czar's the rest of the Romanov girls, so
10:40
Speaker 1: like all good Tatiana, Maria and Anastasia, they're they're all
10:44
Speaker 1: kind of about the same age. They're all, you know, teens.
10:48
Speaker 1: Maria described them as elegant but cloistered, so like they
10:53
Speaker 1: didn't really have access to anything out with the palace walls.
10:58
Speaker 1: So Maria was like this fascinating beacon of information. She
11:04
Speaker 1: had all this information and she could tell them about
11:07
Speaker 1: the world and all this other stuff that is without
11:10
Speaker 1: their blinkers on, you know. Unfortunately, this closeness with the
11:15
Speaker 1: Romanovs really created sort of a discontent pissed people off,
11:21
Speaker 1: to be honest, because they assumed that this quote unquote
11:25
Speaker 1: mad Monk was whispering in the ear of the Cizar
11:29
Speaker 1: and he was influencing like matters of state and shit.
11:33
Speaker 1: Oh and also he was like a filthy horror apparently
11:38
Speaker 1: AnyWho so kelsy praise. A bunch of aristocrats say fuck
11:45
Speaker 1: this for a game of soldiers, and they decide to
11:49
Speaker 1: assassinate Resputing. So this is his second assassination attempt slash slash.
11:57
Speaker 1: This is the second time someone tries to assassinate him,
11:59
Speaker 1: so which turns out to be a rather difficult task.
12:03
Speaker 1: So he gets stabbed and poisoned and shot and then
12:08
Speaker 1: thrown into a river. And it's only when he is
12:11
Speaker 1: thrown into the icy Neva river that he drowns and dies.
12:17
Speaker 1: And here's the thing, and it's Maria who has to
12:20
Speaker 1: identify the body of her father via a galosh that
12:24
Speaker 1: was stuck to the bridge from which the killer had
12:28
Speaker 1: supposedly thrown him off of. For a way while after that,
12:31
Speaker 1: Maria and her sister Varvara, they are still staying in
12:35
Speaker 1: the palace with the Romanovs. But Empress Alexandra the z Arena,
12:41
Speaker 1: she coldn't really see that shit is going down, and
12:44
Speaker 1: so she gives the two younger Sputan girls fifty thousand
12:49
Speaker 1: rubles and tells them to get the fuck out of dodge.
12:54
Speaker 1: She tells them they're going to be imprisoned. Shit's going down.
12:57
Speaker 1: They better just get out and save them. So else,
13:01
Speaker 1: being you know, smart girls, they absolutely listen to what
13:05
Speaker 1: Alexandra says and they flee with the help of Boris Soloviev,
13:10
Speaker 1: who who is a fucking arsehole because he tries to
13:14
Speaker 1: cash in on the missing moment of the thing by
13:18
Speaker 1: hiring girls to pretend to be like Anastasia, you know that,
13:23
Speaker 1: the whole, the whole, mythod but her still being alive,
13:26
Speaker 1: they yeah, dick move. So Maria she marries Boris and
13:33
Speaker 1: I'm not going to say that Sloviev. She marries him,
13:36
Speaker 1: and they have two daughters, and they who they name
13:38
Speaker 1: Tatiana and Maria, named after the Grand duchesses her friends.
13:43
Speaker 1: So they flee to Europe and this is all that's
13:48
Speaker 1: left for Maria in her life. She has her two daughters,
13:51
Speaker 1: and she has Soloviev, her mom and her brother. Her
13:56
Speaker 1: mother and brother disappear in the Soviet labor camps, the
14:00
Speaker 1: fucking gulags in Siberia, and her sister dies under mysterious circumstances.
14:07
Speaker 1: So some say she like starved to death. Others say
14:10
Speaker 1: that she was poisoned. We're not, We're not entirely sure,
14:14
Speaker 1: but old bull bull will get that and it again.
14:16
Speaker 1: So in nineteen twenty six, Boris Oliviev dies of tuberculosis
14:23
Speaker 1: or consumption as it would have been known back then,
14:25
Speaker 1: and she has to find a way to support herself
14:29
Speaker 1: and her two daughters. There's no widow's pension her shit
14:31
Speaker 1: back then, and she uses the only thing she has
14:34
Speaker 1: to her advantage, her name. So, although we're not a
14:39
Speaker 1: dancer by any stretch of the imagination, because she's got
14:43
Speaker 1: a very famous name, which is incredibly rare in the area,
14:47
Speaker 1: she gets a job dancing in a cabaret because she's like, yes,
14:51
Speaker 1: money please, because you know, she's got fucking mouths to
14:54
Speaker 1: feat And she ends up taking dance lessons and she
14:57
Speaker 1: had to sort of hone her performance, and she's in
15:00
Speaker 1: this act where people are dressed up as her father
15:05
Speaker 1: and his murderers in the re enact the murder of
15:09
Speaker 1: her dad in front of her, Like, I don't that
15:14
Speaker 1: just seems like per taste regardless of what era you're in,
15:17
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Anyway, she says, fuck this
15:20
Speaker 1: for a game of soldiers and literally runs away to
15:23
Speaker 1: join a circus. So, yeah, she's part of a traveling
15:27
Speaker 1: circus going through Europe, basically cashing in all her chips,
15:31
Speaker 1: using her last name to her advantage, you know, basically
15:34
Speaker 1: using the resputant name to get as many gigs as
15:37
Speaker 1: she fucking can, and you know what, good for her.
15:40
Speaker 1: And while she's at the circus, she trains to become
15:44
Speaker 1: a lion tamer. Now this is very much of that,
15:47
Speaker 1: it was a different time. Then she becomes a fucking sensation,
15:52
Speaker 1: and she very cleverly bills herself as performing magic overwhelmed beasts,
15:59
Speaker 1: just as her father does weated men. The other way
16:01
Speaker 1: she build herself was the daughter of the famous mad
16:05
Speaker 1: monk whose feats in Russia astonished the world. Like, yes,
16:09
Speaker 1: use everything to your advantage, you may as well. So
16:13
Speaker 1: when she's in a circus, when she's like doing shit
16:16
Speaker 1: with the animals, she gets asked like, are you know
16:18
Speaker 1: not scared of being in a cage, to which she responds,
16:23
Speaker 1: why not? I have been in a cage with Bolsheviks.
16:27
Speaker 1: So the circus trip goes to America, so she's in
16:31
Speaker 1: the state. They're traveling around, and fuck, here's what happens.
16:36
Speaker 1: So the circus is traveling around the US and Maria
16:41
Speaker 1: gets mauled by a fucking bear in nineteen thirty five,
16:46
Speaker 1: but even so, she stays with the circus until it
16:49
Speaker 1: gets to Miami, and then she just quits because fair enough.
16:53
Speaker 1: And Maria at this point is very aware of what
16:57
Speaker 1: grumblings can lead to, of the horror of war. So
17:00
Speaker 1: by in eineteen thirty eight, world War two is in
17:03
Speaker 1: full swing and she's trying to get her daughters over
17:06
Speaker 1: to the States and out of Europe. But both of
17:09
Speaker 1: her daughters are denied entry to the US and Maria
17:13
Speaker 1: is ordered to leave the country within ninety days. Customs
17:15
Speaker 1: are like, get the fuck out. Being a smart okay
17:18
Speaker 1: that she is. Maria marries a childhood friend of hers,
17:22
Speaker 1: Gregory Bernardsky. She knew bernard Sky because he was a
17:25
Speaker 1: former member of the White Russian Army and then a
17:28
Speaker 1: crazy random happenstance they had bumped into each other. Even
17:31
Speaker 1: though their marriage didn't last, she was able to become
17:35
Speaker 1: a US citizen after they divorced. So yes, world War
17:38
Speaker 1: two is in full swing and she does her judy.
17:42
Speaker 1: She becomes a riveter like Rosie the Riveter that yeah, anyway,
17:47
Speaker 1: and she stays, you know, doing factory work until about
17:51
Speaker 1: nineteen fifty five, which is when like the red scare
17:55
Speaker 1: is really building. So basically, a lot of Western countries
18:00
Speaker 1: were really terrified of communism, like to the point where
18:05
Speaker 1: like not just communism, Marxism, Leninism, communism, socialism, the whole
18:10
Speaker 1: thing everything, they put it all into one blanket, and
18:14
Speaker 1: as such they were like, oh yeah, actually, and so
18:18
Speaker 1: they were accusing Maria Resputmin of being a communist, which
18:24
Speaker 1: really fucking pissed her off because it was the Bolsheviks
18:28
Speaker 1: and the whole communism thing, which is the reason that
18:32
Speaker 1: her friends were murdered, that her mother and brother were killed,
18:38
Speaker 1: and that she had to flee her home. This woman
18:41
Speaker 1: may have been a lot of things, but she was
18:43
Speaker 1: not a fucking communist. So Maria retires and moves to
18:48
Speaker 1: La surviving along social security benefits, teaching Russian and babysitting.
18:54
Speaker 1: She did do like a couple of interviews and stuff.
18:57
Speaker 1: You know, she claims to be a psychic, and this
19:00
Speaker 1: is glorious. She says that she's a psychic and that
19:03
Speaker 1: Betty Ford spoke to her in a dream. The other
19:06
Speaker 1: thing she does is she writes a bunch of books
19:09
Speaker 1: about her father and that so she says that when
19:13
Speaker 1: she was writing books, when she wrote these books about
19:15
Speaker 1: her dad, that it wasn't for her to make money,
19:19
Speaker 1: it was so she could clear her father's name. And
19:21
Speaker 1: when you read these books, you can really see that,
19:23
Speaker 1: you can see that everything is painted with pure I
19:27
Speaker 1: don't want to say optimism, but like rose tinted glasses.
19:30
Speaker 1: It really paints her father as a complete more of
19:33
Speaker 1: a saint effectively. But yeah, like he may not have
19:37
Speaker 1: been a magical evil with Berryman, but he wasn't a saint.
19:43
Speaker 5: So when she writes her last book was Putting the
19:45
Speaker 5: Man Behind the Myth in seventy seven, and she, you know,
19:49
Speaker 5: she fills up with her own memories and you know,
19:51
Speaker 5: diary entries and basically her time living in Russia.
19:56
Speaker 1: And but lots of people just really weren't convinced. They
20:00
Speaker 1: thought she was bullshitting because especially around this time, lots
20:04
Speaker 1: of people had been coming forward stating that they were
20:06
Speaker 1: like one of the missing Romanovs, usually Anastasia. But it
20:10
Speaker 1: wasn't just the Romanovs that people were pretending to be.
20:13
Speaker 1: A bunch of people came forward pretending to be the
20:16
Speaker 1: heir of for Sputin. Now, this was kind of easy
20:20
Speaker 1: to do at the time because no one was really
20:22
Speaker 1: sure how many children he had. At least now now
20:26
Speaker 1: that all the records are unsealed, we can see them.
20:28
Speaker 1: The researchers were able to find this information, and on
20:31
Speaker 1: the twenty seventh of September nineteen seventy seven, Maria Rasputin
20:36
Speaker 1: passes away from natural causes, and so ends the story
20:42
Speaker 1: of Maria Resputin. So what have we learned today? That
20:46
Speaker 1: sometimes the more fascinating people use everything you can to
20:50
Speaker 1: your advantage, especially if you're in a situation that has
20:55
Speaker 1: that puts you on a lower rung. Like you if
20:59
Speaker 1: you need to step up that ladder, if you need
21:01
Speaker 1: to get up those stairs, you hold on to the handrail.
21:04
Speaker 1: You do what you can. And this kind of host
21:06
Speaker 1: for everything. You should be able to utilize all the
21:10
Speaker 1: cards in your deck, you know, and not just because
21:13
Speaker 1: I'm not saying like, like I know we have a
21:15
Speaker 1: habit of being like, oh, I don't want to ask
21:17
Speaker 1: them or I don't want to like I'm really bad
21:19
Speaker 1: for that. Actually I'm really bad at promoting myself. I'm
21:22
Speaker 1: like fucking worse of promoting myself because I don't want
21:25
Speaker 1: to bother people. I feel like it's a bother you know.
21:27
Speaker 1: I feel like it's like and I need to get
21:30
Speaker 1: out of that headspace. It's like, No, you should be
21:33
Speaker 1: able to message these people, you know in these positions
21:36
Speaker 1: and go, hey want to share this, or hey, I
21:39
Speaker 1: have an idea for you. Do you want to do that?
21:42
Speaker 1: But I I just don't want to be a dick.
21:46
Speaker 1: Like if you have a skill or if you have
21:49
Speaker 1: a route that is open to you, unless you're a
21:52
Speaker 1: straight white rich man, in which case use that to
21:55
Speaker 1: help other people, because fuck you and your privilege. Anyway,
21:59
Speaker 1: that is what you've learn today. So it is recommendation time,
22:04
Speaker 1: and we are going to recommend we who'se we? I
22:08
Speaker 1: am going to recommend listening. I think you should listen
22:11

22:17
Speaker 1: grandchildren could have been dancing to that. It's all I'm saying.
22:20

22:27
Speaker 1: I will watch all of them all of the time.

22:34
Speaker 1: recommend it absolutely one hundred percent. So reading reading wise,
22:41
Speaker 1: you know what, read your Christmas list, and if there
22:43
Speaker 1: isn't a donation to somebody on it, if you can

Speaker 1: afford it, you know, donate to something. Are we fiver
22:49
Speaker 1: or something if you have it, Donate to a charity,
22:52
Speaker 1: Donate to somebody who needs it. And I really need
