Did Hitler Survive? World War II Conspiracy Theories (Co-Conspirators Podcast Episode #10)
Description
The saying goes that there are two sides to every battle, but we aim to dig deeper than that as we scrutinise one of, if not, the most devastating conflicts in world history, World War II.
In this episode, Calum assesses the Japanese attack on Peal Harbor. Did the US ignore advance warnings of a potential attack, or even try to provoke the Japanese into striking so they could have a valid reason to fully enter the war? John offers an fascinating alternate take on the events of Hitler's apparent defeat and suicide. Is there any truth to the rumours that Hitler and other prominent figures in the German military were able to flee across the Atlantic Ocean to seek refuge in Argentina? Finally, Luke uncovers some of the potentially dark secrets behind Switzerland's infamous neutrality, suggesting that the Swiss may have been more involved in the war than the country would like to let on.
This podcast aims to offer an informal yet informative insight into some of the explanations and suggestions that the internet has to offer, discussing the factual and the far-fetched, in a light-hearted conversation between three close mates. With theories ranging from the plausible to the preposterous, can we be certain that anything is 100% true?
