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.

51:00 Totally unrelated quote: "You will never have to read another newspaper again. I will do all your reading, and I will tell you what to think about it.” -Rush Limbaugh, a man completely unrelated to the topic described at this timestamp

On the note of how recent old timey stuff actually is: I learned to sail from my dad. My DAD learned to sail as a small kid from an old man who worked the fishing boats. That man went to see as a hand before the mast on SQUARE RIGGERS and remembered the first steam ships entering use.

This all reminds me of refugee policy in Australia. On another note, love that this background continues the long tradition of leaving New Zealand off maps, nice work.

Or the Covid lockdown policy in Australia.

Note: the The Shop on Main Street (1965) is not at all about Russia and Russian peasants. It was made in Czechoslovakia and the plot takes place in Slovakia during the war. Slovakia was at the time a client state of Nazi Germany. Slovakia was never a part Russia, it was a part of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy before the WW1 and a part of the democratic state of Czechoslovakia between wars. The plot is described accurately by Robert but it never could have happened in any part of Soviet Union occupied by Germans because the Jewish widow wouldn't be able to keep her shop under the Soviet Union.

For anyone interested in the film, Second Run Dvd has released a region-free blu-ray of it

The constant braying about "Groomers" from the Right hasn't abated honestly, and it is just a matter of time before some person or group in the United States gets torn apart by a mob that has been directed towards them via some manufactured outrage on social media. Such events have happened in other countries and frankly, a strong argument could be made that Jan. 6th was precisely that.

Except...the only person killed on January 6th, was an unarmed female Trump supporter.

I just came across this from Reddit where people were talking about the coming US 2024 election and this podcast was crazy to listen to. It's scary that it could happen anywhere. :(

7:51 Hitler was also TIME's Person of the Year at some point in the late 30s as well, of course.

@Taskicore 2 ай бұрын

To be fair though, TIME's Person of the Year isn't an endorsement. It's more of a "this person was extremely influential" type thing. However in recent years I think they've started to step away from that method of selecting a person of the year.

this podcast simultaneously aged like a fine wine and like milk, and the irony that october 7 is a major date noted in this particular episode. either we as a people have truly learned nothing, or the people in power selectively learned just enough to get their way, or both, and every possibility is sobering

This kind of conspiratorial nonsense is better suited for the Illuminati episodes

@strangewigglytuff 2 ай бұрын

@thomaswillard6267 bro im literally just referring to how weve collectively learned nothing from warmongers like kissinger based on the ongoing genocide. pointing out an unfortunate coincidence in the date is not "conspiratorial nonsense"

Absolutely chilling, but necessary, to see the humanity in those who - begrudgingly or not - helped the Holocaust happen. Because they weren't otherworldly monsters, who we "decent people" could never become. They were people just like us. Like the Trapps who chose to carry out orders they knew were atrocious. Why? Surely the Eisentzgroupen knew they could have refused and not suffered more than the potential inconvenience of a transfer, or some ribbing by other soldiers. But maybe that social shame was too scary to risk. Maybe Trapp's tears were for the shame he felt for his lack of courage. Albeit my life has never put me in such a situation with such high stakes, I can't say I've never tearfully opted for the "practical" or "reasonable" choice instead of what my soul was screaming for me to do instead. I could be a Trapp. Seeing this in myself is sad and terrifying, but it is only when we see our failings that we can take corrctive action.

I can't help but disagree with the colleague Meyer interviews at 52:45. It's probably due to my own lack of trust in other people and their likelihood of reliably doing the right thing when they need to in large numbers... but to me, it seems like by the time the regime has reached "loyalty oath, which if you don't take it, you lose your job" levels, it's too late to just do conscience-based, "refuse to take the oath and defy the regime" actions, and expect that to have any real-world effect. Or at least, a real-world effect on par with hiding a bunch of people from the Nazis who would otherwise have died in concentration camps. I didn't live through it and Meyer's colleague did, I guess, but it seems wrong to decide "it's more ethical for me to refuse to do this one symbolic thing, even though it means a whole bunch of people who previously would have been saved will (realistically, IMHO) probably die now, versus getting my hands figuratively dirty by taking the terrible oath (falsely, and then not abiding by it at all), and then saving a bunch of people's lives." I guess I just differ with his colleague's idea that if he'd refused, everyone would have, and the regime would have fallen. Like, in an extremely theoretical universe, maybe, but I just don't think that's how real life works. That hasn't been my experience of real life.

So, how it is possible that Holocaust survivor considers the guy who took him from his house a "decent" person? Probably by comparison with all that happened to him and to people who spoke about. If there was no outright violence from the guy who took him away, no pushing, no name calling - well, this being a starting point of hell on Earth would look extremely "decent" compared to anything that happened next.

This is why Liberals are so dangerous. They don't actually give a shit and are aggressively committed to not helping. As long as "decorum" is observed, they're pleased.
