The Machiavelli Syndrome

Niccolo Machiavelli is to have faked his own death at the age of twenty-five only to return 18 years later. Was this a true event or some folk lure thought of by locals.

Fast forward the year is 1996 and rapper Tupac Shakur is supposedly shot and killed. However many of his loyal fans believe he is reenacting Machiavelli's act of faking death only to return after a certain amount of time.

Really is there a validity to any of this? That is the question we will be asking on today's show.
