The woman with John Lennon in that photograph was his mistress May Pang, who was his lover, for some time with an agreement with Yoko Ono, who arranged the match, because it was common for married men in her upper class Japanese society, for married men to have a mistress, and at that time she wanted it that way. Although John went back to Yoko, he didn't entirely give up May. He was notoriously unfaithful. Norwegian Wood is about an extra marital affair, when he was married to Cynthia, his first wife.

Henry VIII also had a friendship with my 18th-great-grandfather, Thomas Cromwell, that ended badly. Just because Cromwell set him up with an ugly wife, Henry turned on him (with the goading of some of Cromwell's enemies) and threw him in the Tower of London where he lost his head, too. Luckily, Cromwell had already had children so his decendents survived.

Despite my lack of interest in the subject matter, I click on these videos because I enjoy this narrator so much that I still really enjoy the video and learn something new. Even if I'm interested in the subject matter and I click on the video and hear the other narrator, I just can't enjoy it.

che guevara was not a hero and I hate anyone who wears a t-shirt with that mad mans face on it. He inspired people to fight for causes they could never win and sooo many people died because of the rubbish he put in peoples heads.

President Theodore Roosevelt vs. President Howard Taft definitely deserve to be on this list, as do President Thomas Jefferson vs. President John Adams. In both cases they were friends turned enemies.

1: 11 I will never forget that incident.
They could be no true loyalty to any leader that killed one of their soldiers in a fit of rage like that. especially in front of the other soldiers!

8: 35 Madonna's album American Life (2003) has a graffiti portrait of Madonna cosplaying as Cuban rebel Che Guevara. (Billboard)
She is one of my favorite musical artists.

One correction. At 5: 53 you stated that. when Henry's marriage to Catherine of Aragon had failed to produce a child you should replace the word child with a male heir

3: 58 The band The Sounds have an album called Crossing The Rubicon (2009.
They consider their music to be party music.
They are one of my favorite bands.

Titus Labienus. I can't decide if that sounds more like an OBGYN or a proctologist. Either way, kinda sounds like a character from The Life of Brian.

Btw, when describing Lennon & McCartney's friendship that went bad, you were talking about Yoko Ono, but showed a photo of Lennon and May Pang.

Sometimes you find out your best friend in the world loves the SW prequels, AND the sequels, and you just have to, tearfully, let them go.

I can imagine those nicknames 3: 40. Tiny LittleAnus and the Plebs has a great ancient-Roman-middle-school-insult ring to it.
