Description

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.

I love this podcast, but the mismatch of audio makes it impossible to listen to. I understand they have different advert systems to their orignal platform, but sometimes you listen, and it jumps back 10 minutes randomly. it is nearly every episode. They have said they know this problem exists on Reddit but seem to have done nothing about it.

Holly fuck I was in civil air patrol, had no idea the KKK was involved. could have got a pilot's license with a discount from that organization, but I discovered weed and women, became a proud slacker.

Dr Laura does give some good advice to dumb people. For real. I’m so glad I listened to this to learn she did the things she rips people another a hole over. I listened to her for years here and there and I’m positive she helped a lot of people who have zero clue about life.

Just wanted to drop a note to say how much I appreciate 'Behind the Bastards.' The show’s ability to delve into the darker corners of history with such thorough research and engaging storytelling is truly impressive. https://www.thomasnet.com/company/cake-boxery-30984299/profile
