Okay, we are alive. Hi, this is William Ramsey. Welcome to William Ramsey investigates on today's show of a returning guest, very special guest. His name is Robert Frederick. He operates the hidden life is best. And it's basically he's done so many, uh, covering covered so many of Shakespeare's plays from the writer as written by Francis Sir Francis Bacon and it's clearly

clearly um clearly Shakespeare did not write all these I mean I've done shows with

Mark Twain and Robert and we've covered all these other plays this will be our sixth

show believe or not.

We've just done one with Sir Francis Bacon and the Knox Stick English Empire.

That's true.

We did Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, The Tempest, and then we did Macbeth as well.

But today we are going to cover another one with all kinds of elements to it. And the surface story is really the most lightheaded.

You know, it's what's under the surface is the most important stuff in a midsummer night's dream.

It actually ties into kind of this midsummer paganism too, this movie that came out.

But a lot of ties into common culture, Bohemian Grove, Eyes Wide Shut. But we can talk more about

that with Robert. So Robert Frederick, welcome back to the show. Hi, William. Nice to be back.

Awesome. So for people who haven't heard our earlier shows, maybe you could talk about your interest in bacon and just kind of give people a background and then lead into a midsummer night stream.

Okay, great. Well, basically, as William said, William Shakespeare did not write the plays of William Shakespeare.

And that's now become very obvious to a lot of people because when you look at the historical

facts of the matter that are agreed upon, you know, William Shakespeare never wrote a letter.

He doesn't seem to have owned a book. Nobody spoke to him about writing.

And then the question then becomes, well, then who did write the plays? And that's a whole other world.

So there's the evidence about Shakespeare not writing it and that contention. But then the people that know he didn't write it try to figure out who did

write it. And I spent a few years looking into that, and the evidence for Francis Bacon,

Francis Bacon being the primary writer of the plays, is absolutely overwhelming. And I put it into an essay called The Overwhelming Evidence for Francis Bacon.

And it is on patreon.com or substack.com, but it is called the overwhelming evidence. Francis Bacon wrote Shakespeare.
