Join Tom and Dominic in the first episode of our series on the Nazis in Power, as they delve into how Hitler solidified his and his party’s control of Germany, the different right wing groups at play, the signs of uprising against Hitler’s rule, and the eventual quelling of all opposition.

A slight annotation to the translation used for Hitler's Reichstag speech: "I was the supreme judge..." does not quite nail it. He called himself "des deutschen Volkes oberster Gerichtsherr". Gerichtsherr has and even back then had a far more authoritarian connotation than Richter, i.e. judge. It's a throwback to feudal times when the feudal lord had ultimate jurisdiction over his subjects. The term speaks of power rather than justice, and in this context does away with even a pretense of a rule of law. So, translating it as "judge" is a bit off. I presume it is the standard English translation of the speech. Nevertheless, a suggestion for future projects: Perhaps there is an English term from feudal times that comes with similar connotations and that could be used. Otherwise: Very educative and entertaining episode. Thanks a lot.

When I was at school in the 80's my teacher invited a friend of his who was a journalist in the 1930's to speak to us. He had interviewed Hitler in the mid 30's and had been given a signed copy of Mein Kampf. He told the story of how he lost it on the way back to the airport. I can't remember the persons name, so if anyone has any knowledge of English Journalists who interviewed Hitler in the 30's it would be nice to be reminded of his name. I can't imagine there would have been that many.

Very interesting, great vid. However, Hitler wasn't actually a vegetarian as you said. He was, apparently, advised by his doctor to cut down on the sausage intake to manage his chronic flatulence, but still occasionally ate meat. As for the drinking, he gave up after getting hideously drunk on Schnapps as a youth and waking up in a field. By the way, did you know that Jagermeister once had the nickname 'Goering's schnapps' because of his fondness for the drink? Though for some reason the company does not use this nickname in its advertising today....

Rohm is a very interesting character.. after ww1 he remsined an officer in the army. He was an equipment officer in Bavaria and became known aa "the machine gun king" , controlling army supplies , which he put into secret caches for use by nationalist groups , not just nazis. His wartime service included the Stormtroops , elite fighting men. No surprise the name would be reprised for the SA. most of the SA looked to him as their leader and an alternative to Hitler in 1933.

Just realised something interesting with this. I listened to the very first few TRIH episodes when they first came out , and decided they weren't for me, even though I loved Tom Hollands book. I couldn't stand the way they talked over each other. Now watching this, I see they now separate their voice in the podcast, but not in this video. I spent 5 minutes going over the bit at 28:12 when Dominic mentions Tom is a vegetarian, and Tom talks over him, so the next bit makes no sense about why inviting Tom to a wedding would be a bad idea. But if you listen to the podcast, they've split that up so you hear both clearly.

The position of Reichspräsident wasn't " retired" after Hindenburgs death, mergely it became merged in the person of Hitler as Fuhrer (or Leader - or even better Guide). When Hitler died in 1945 Goebbels suceeded him as chancellor but Admiral Dönitz suceeded him as Reichspräsident thus spliting the positions again.

The "ö" in Röhm has kind of like a mix between an "ew' and "ay" sound. Kind of hard to explain, but for example the vowel pronunciation is similar to the classic popular song, "Danke Schoen" (which if actually written by a German, would be spelled "Schön").
