Profiles in Contrast

Sofie delivers her thoughts on the life and times, traits and exploits of Rasputin and then contrasts him with a notable modern age figure who is similar in the arc of their life, their personal credo, and how they have been treated by history. She begins with a brief biographical sketch of Rasputin, followed by a tease in which she describes the modern era contrasting figure before revealing their identity. She then explains her reasoning for choosing the modern era figure and contrasts the two of them before concluding with summary comments and a personal statement about which one she finds the more compelling figure and why.This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.https://www.buzzsprout.com/2599997/episodes/18768959
