There’s a reason the History Channel has produced hundreds of documentaries about Hitler but only a few about Dwight D. Eisenhower. Bad guys (and gals) are eternally fascinating. Behind the Bastards dives in past the Cliffs Notes of the worst humans in history and exposes the bizarre realities of their lives. Listeners will learn about the young adult novels that helped Hitler form his monstrous ideology, the founder of Blackwater’s insane quest to build his own Air Force, the bizarre lives of the sons and daughters of dictators and Saddam Hussein’s side career as a trashy romance novelist.
New episodes twice a week on iHeartRadio.

A doubloon is gold and was worth 32 reales. A piece of 8 is silver (about the size of a silver US dollar,) and worth 8 reales. I know this was a long time ago and nobody cares, but I love collecting 8 reales they’re beautiful coins with a lot of interesting history behind them. Peruvian silver mines and the production of Spanish silver coins is probably a good candidate for behind the bastards. Lots of indigenous people getting their hands cut off by the Spanish for not producing enough silver.

Idk. I care. This knowledge may not be useful. It may not be relevant to my everyday life. But it is definitely relevant to my interests.

So that's what the 8 in piece of 8 is? Good to know. I didn't realize these were Spanish currency denominations.

@@MrGksarathy yeah they’re Spanish, until the 1840’s it was very common to use them in the US when American made coins were hard to find.

Let's be real, Tintin wasn't as bad because for the most part, he acted as a journalist uncovering pre-existing conspiracies as opposed to galivanting around foreign countries for the heck of it.

I am reading 'Through the Dark Continent' now and I can safely say Sir Henry M. Stanely is no bastard. A very large portion of the book documents African culture and geography, an endeavour that was not murderous, much rather honourable. The title of your hypersexual podcast does not realise the context of the situation Stanley found himself in when he was killing. Once he amicably passed through East Africa, befriending many tribes, he had to traverse the Congo. Because of the geography, extremely dense jungle and no navigable river, the natives were insular and mostly cannibals. Stanley did his upmost to convince them to allow him safe passage, with a small number of tribes it worked, alas, nothing would stop the cannibals from viewing the expedition as merely meat. Therefore, it was necessary to use force for not only his preservation, but the preservation of his many followers, the followers of which he regarded as family.

"Through the dark continent" was written by Stanley himself, you do realize? You're treating it as an honest account of what happened? You're literally applying a 1890 level of critical thinking.
