⚡ PINT-SIZED HISTORY TAKES ON THE NAZIS⚡

From beer halls to blitzkrieg, we talk about how a certain failed Austrian painter captured the imaginations of the disillusioned in Weimar Germany, preyed on vulnerable public morale and eventually formed one of the deadliest regimes in history.

In this two-part special, we’re diving headfirst into the dark rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party.

We’re unpacking the chaos of post-WWI Germany, the incredible speaking ability of the future Fuhrer, the propaganda machine that helped build him, and the deadly political manoeuvring that dragged him to the top step of German politics.

This isn’t just a history lesson, it’s a story of how easily extremism spreads as Europe dives headfirst into a modern right-wing resurgence.

In Part One, we cover:

⚡Hitler's youth - The early years which brought him from obscure Austrian artist in Vienna to German political icon.

⚡The Treaty of Versailles – How post-WWI humiliation, hyperinflation, and hopelessness laid fertile ground for extremism.

⚡ Rise to popularity – The inspiration from Benito Mussolini and his political takeover in Italy, and the other mechanisms he used to gain infamy

Join us as we break down the rise of fascism in Germany — the key events, the key players, and the terrifying consequences that followed.

🎧 So grab a pint, press play, and get ready for a chilling walk through all too recent history.
