Join us as Robert Balch shares what it was like to be the tip of the spear for the 14th Armored division during WW2. Beginning with a brutal baptism by fire in Gertwiller in November 1944, his platoon advanced as the spearhead column, crossing the German border at Wissembourg and conducting high-stakes scouting missions directly against the Dragon's Teeth of the Siegfried Line. The unit faced severe physical and psychological strain, enduring freezing foxholes during a tense "battle of nerves" near Bitche, before being forced into a chaotic, full-scale tactical withdrawal when hit by a massive German counter-offensive during Operation Nordwind, the last German counter offensive of the war. Robert reflects on their service during the post-war occupation of Germany, members of the platoon fiercely defended the purpose and conduct of the American GI, emphasizing that their resolve was permanently forged by the trauma of combat and the firsthand horrors of liberating concentration camps like Dachau and Buchenwald. Support the show

‘Elke oorlogscorrespondent moet alles lezen van Gellhorn. Ze is een monument', aldus Geert Mak over de door hem bewonderde oorlogscorrespondent Martha Gellhorn. Gellhorn was de belangrijkste oorlogscorrespondent van de twintigste eeuw en stond bekend als onverschrokken. Ze deinsde niet terug voor gevaar, sterker nog: ze zocht de oorlogshaarden op om nauwgezet, kritisch maar ook sociaal betrokken verslag te doen van wat zij zelf zag en meemaakte. Ze was ooggetuige in de Spaanse Burgeroorlog, de politionele acties in Indonesië en de burgeroorlog in El Salvador. Cruciaal moment in haar leven was haar bezoek aan Dachau; het tekende haar voorgoed. Ze had een stormachtige verhouding en huwelijk met de beroemde Amerikaanse schrijver Ernest Hemingway. Presentator en podcastmaker Nathan de Vries praat in deze aflevering met: *schrijver en journalist Geert Mak. Hij schreef het voorwoord van de Nederlandse vertaling van ‘The Face of War', een verzameling van de meest aangrijpende oorlogsreportages van Gellhorn. *Xandra Schutte, hoofdredacteur van de Groene Amsterdammer en betrokken bij het onderzoek naar Gellhorns ‘De ogen van miljoenen', een bundel persoonlijke brieven over oorlog, armoede, teleurstellingen in de liefde en haar frustratie over een beroep dat werd gedomineerd door mannen. *Minka Nijhuis, oorlogsverslaggever die ook wel ‘de Gellhorn van de polder' wordt genoemd. *en schrijver en filosoof Alicja Gescinska, die in haar boek ‘Vrouwen in duistere tijden' tien bijzondere vrouwen onder wie Martha Gellhorn portretteert.

The Nazi Holocaust of the Jews stands as one of the most horrifying events in human history, a time when Satanic hatred was organized, mechanized and carried out through a political system that marked, isolated, transported and murdered the Jewish people by the millions. The world looked upon the smoke of Auschwitz, Treblinka, Sobibor, Dachau and the other killing centers and said “never again,” but the Bible says something very different. The Bible says, “The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be,” and the same hatred that rose up under Pharaoh, Haman, Herod and Hitler will rise again under Antichrist. The Holocaust was not the end of antisemitic persecution; it was a warning shot of what fallen man and Satanic government are capable of doing when God removes restraint. And it's fixing to come again.“For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.” Matthew 24:21 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, if the Holocaust was one of the darkest valleys of human history, then the coming great Tribulation will be the darkest valley of all time. Hitler's Reich targeted the Jews in Europe; Antichrist's Beast system will target the Jews on a global scale. Hitler used trains, camps, numbers, propaganda and death decrees; Antichrist will use worship, technology, economics, global government and the mark of the Beast. This is why the Bible calls that coming period “the time of Jacob's trouble.” It is not called the time of the Church's trouble, because the Church is not Jacob. Jacob is Israel. Jeremiah says, “Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.” Jeremiah 30:7 (KJB). That verse matches perfectly with the words of Jesus in Matthew 24. The Jewish people will once again become the target of the Devil's final rage, and the nations of the world will once again turn against Israel. The Holocaust showed us what one demonized empire could do to the Jews; the time of Jacob's trouble will show what a demonized world under Antichrist will do when Satan knows his time is short. The same spirit that built the death camps is the same spirit that here in 2026 chants for Israel's destruction, funds terror, fires missiles and prepares the nations for the final satanic campaign against the Jews. The uniforms change, the slogans change, the technology changes, but the hatred remains the same. There is no new thing under the sun. The difference is that the Holocaust ended with the defeat of Nazi Germany, but the great Tribulation ends with the visible, bodily return of Jesus Christ at the Second Advent. Hitler was stopped by armies; Antichrist will be destroyed by the Lord Himself. The Holocaust left survivors to testify; the time of Jacob's trouble will leave a purified remnant of Israel who will look upon Him whom they have pierced and finally receive their Messiah. That is why Christians should care about the Holocaust, and that is why Christians should pay attention to the war with Iran. The headlines are moving in the same direction prophecy has always pointed: Israel surrounded, the nations raging, false peace rising, and Jacob's trouble waiting just beyond the horizon. Today we look at the Nazi Holocaust to see the Spirit of Prophecy carrying us headlong into the headlines!

Odwiedzamy Austrię i miejsce, gdzie mordowano także Polaków w tym 300 polskich księży. Dlaczego Austria? Większość z nas kojarzy narodziny machiny Zagłady z Auschwitz. Tymczasem zanim III Rzesza uruchomiła przemysłowe fabryki śmierci, swoje metody mordowania testowała gdzie indziej — między innymi w renesansowym zamku Hartheim w Górnej Austrii.To tutaj, pod osłoną medycyny, urzędowych formularzy i fałszywych aktów zgonu, mordowano osoby chore psychicznie, niepełnosprawne, więźniów obozów koncentracyjnych, robotników przymusowych, Żydów oraz duchownych. Hartheim był jednym z najważniejszych ośrodków programu Aktion T4, a później miejscem eksterminacji więźniów w ramach akcji 14f13.W tym odcinku pokazuję, jak działała nazistowska biurokracja śmierci, jak rodziny ofiar oszukiwano fałszywymi zawiadomieniami, jak doświadczenia z Hartheim wykorzystano później w obozach zagłady Akcji Reinhardt oraz dlaczego to miejsce jest tak ważne także dla polskiej pamięci. W Hartheim zamordowano ponad tysiąc obywateli Polski, w tym setki duchownych deportowanych z Dachau.To kolejny materiał z cyklu „Oblicza III Rzeszy”, poświęconego mniej znanym, ale kluczowym mechanizmom działania państwa nazistowskiego: ideologii, medycynie, administracji, przemocy i ludziom, którzy zamienili teorię nienawiści w praktykę masowego mordu.Cały cykl „Oblicza III Rzeszy” znajdziesz tutaj: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gIX9d3dLTk&list=PL39NJxrWDeArl6YDEyP6YjQmR7twI14whJAK WSPIERAĆ MÓJ KANAŁ:

Al castello di Itter erano rinchiusi, oltre ad alcuni prigionieri dell'Est Europa, gli ostaggi d'alto rango che i nazisti avevano arrestato in Francia: Reynaud, Weygand, Gamelin, persino la sorella maggiore del generale De Gaulle. Ma a inizio maggio del 1945, di fronte allo sfacelo del Reich, la fuga di un prigioniero jugoslavo innesca una vicenda curiosa: soldati tedeschi antinazisti e GI's americani uniscono le forze per liberare il castello e combattere le Waffen-SS. La successiva battaglia, un episodio conosciuto in Austria ma quasi sottaciuto altrove, rappresenta un esempio unico di resistenza contro il nazismo.

Professor Paul Finlayson was one of Canada's most respected marketing professors. Today, he is at the center of one of the country's most controversial debates over free speech, academic freedom, and the cost of speaking one's conscience. After publicly condemning Hamas following the October 7 terrorist attacks and expressing support for Israel, Finlayson says his career changed overnight. A professor for fifteen years with outstanding student evaluations and multiple textbooks to his name, he was suspended, investigated, and ultimately dismissed from the University of Guelph-Humber. In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, Paul shares his story for nearly an hour—describing what he says happened behind closed doors, the emotional and financial toll of losing his career, and why, despite everything, he has never regretted taking a public stand. Together, we discuss the growing tensions surrounding free expression on university campuses, the resurgence of antisemitism, the responsibilities of educators, and the moral courage required to defend deeply held convictions when the personal cost is enormous. Whether you agree with Paul's conclusions or not, this interview raises profound questions every Canadian should consider: What is the price of speaking your conscience? If universities are meant to be places of open inquiry, what happens when controversial opinions carry professional consequences? And perhaps most importantly: What would you do if telling the truth cost you everything? Five Riveting Moments 1. 12:30 — The LinkedIn Post That Changed Everything Paul explains why he responded to a Pakistani academic following October 7 and how a single social media comment ultimately led to complaints against him. 2. 18:19 — Suspension, Gag Orders, and Public Humiliation Paul describes being removed from campus, prohibited from speaking with students or colleagues, and learning that damaging rumours were allegedly spreading about him. 3. 26:55 — "Kafkaesque": The Human Cost One of the interview's most emotional moments, as Paul discusses the psychological impact on himself and his family, describing sleepless nights, betrayal, and the collapse of the career he loved. 4. 41:35 — "I'm Just Some Stubborn Irish Guy" Despite being compared to prominent defenders of Israel, Paul rejects the label of hero and explains why he simply refused to apologize for condemning terrorism. 5. 47:35 — "I've Never Had Regret" The interview reaches its emotional peak as Paul recalls visiting Dachau as a young man, reflects on the victims of October 7, and explains why—even if given the chance—he would never take back what he said. This conversation is about much more than one professor. It is about freedom, conscience, moral courage, and whether democratic societies still make room for people who refuse to remain silent. ——

In this episode, we welcome Julia Cooke to discuss her new book, Starry and Restless: Three Women Who Changed Work, Writing, and the World, which profiles three pioneering women journalists: Rebecca West, Emily "Mickey" Hahn, and Martha Gellhorn. Cooke explores these writers' shared temperament and celebrates their work as a forerunner to New Journalism. Throughout our interview, we learn about Gellhorn: her life before Hemingway entered the scene (in a letter, she would describe her younger self as "starry and restless”), her short-lived relationship with Hemingway, and her later years in which she adopted a son and experienced a rather complicated motherhood. Cooke also immerses us in Gellhorn's writing, focusing on how her war journalism weaves together harrowing scenes with humanizing details and how her witnessing of Dachau toward the end of WWII was truly transformative.

Falls ihr zum Beispiel gerade auf der Suche nach einem neuen Hobby seid, dann bekommt ihr hier heute Inspiration von Annika alias Annikazion! Sie ist Vollzeit-Creatorin. Die meisten kennen sie vermutlich von ihren Reaction Videos auf Youtube. Da kommentiert Annika Reality-TV-Formate und kritisiert zum Beispiel toxisches Verhalten oder feiert schöne Momente ab. Bis zu unserem Gespräch hab ich mich immer gefragt, wie sie es schafft, neben ihren Youtube- und Instagram-Kanälen noch SOVIEL andere Sachen nebenbei zu machen. Und damit meine ich nicht ihre große Leidenschaft für Sport - die hat sie nämlich auch. Ich meine eher, dass ihre Inhalte sich manchmal anfühlen, als würde sie jeden Tag ein anderes Leben leben. Mal lernt sie nähen oder Brot backen, dann radelt sie von München nach Wien, und am nächsten Tag bringt sie sich selbst bei, wie man Schlösser knackt. Die Antwort darauf, WIE sie das alles unter einen Hut bekommt, hat mich dann doch überrascht – genau wie die Tatsache, dass diese vielen verschiedenen Sidequests von Annika sogar mal der Auslöser für Ängste und Unsicherheiten waren.Außerdem habe ich für Annika auch wieder eine Überraschung dabei. Das hatte ja in der letzten Folge schon so gut geklappt, als zu Mirella Precek plötzlich noch Louis Klamroth auf die Bühne kam. Dieses Mal hatte ich eine Botschaft von Coldmirror dabei und hach, das war ein richtig schöner Moment.

Issue de la mode, la photographe Lee Miller est l'une des rares femmes à couvrir la Seconde guerre mondiale. Elle photographie les camps de Buchenwald et Dachau ; elle n'en revient pas indemne.Plongez dans l'incroyable parcours de Lee Miller, une photographe américaine qui a couvert les événements marquants de la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale en Europe.

Step into the eerie world of The Twilight Zone in this chilling podcast episode, where hosts Freddy Morris and Joe Juvland are joined by Professor David D. Perlmutter, Ph.D—author of Blogwars and Policing the Media. This week, the discussion centers on the haunting episode "Deaths-Head Revisited" (Season 3, Episode 9), which follows a former SS officer returning to the ruins of Dachau, only to be confronted by the ghosts of his past atrocities. Together, the hosts and Professor Perlmutter explore the episode's powerful themes of guilt, justice, and the inescapable weight of history, making this a must-listen for both fans of the series and those interested in media and morality.

David E. Scherman et Lee Miller, Lee Miller dans la baignoire d’Hitler, Munich, 30 avril 1945 Photographe et modèle : Lee Miller fut les deux, et la très belle exposition que lui consacre le Musée d’art moderne témoigne de ce double statut puisque les images présentées sont tout autant des photos qu’elle réalisa que des photos où elle figure. Est en particulier exposée, vers la fin du parcours, la planche contact de la série de photographies que David E. Scherman et elle prirent, dans l’appartement munichois d’Adolf Hitler, le 30 avril ou peut-être le 1er mai 1945, jour ou lendemain du jour du suicide de Hitler, et notamment celle de ces photos où on l’on voit Lee Miller se laver dans la baignoire de cet appartement. La planche de contact Cette photo fut publiée dans Vogue, pour lequel elle travaillait, magazine qui publiera également, sous le titre Believe it, les terribles images de la libération des camps de Buchenwald et Dachau. C’est justement en revenant de Dachau et des horreurs qu’elle y avait vues que Lee Miller conçut, avec son acolyte David E. Scherman avec lequel elle couvrait, depuis l’été 1944, la libération de l’Europe ; c’est en revenant de Dachau que Lee Miller conçut la scène, la scène très mise en scène, du bain. Elle expliquera qu’il s’agissait d’abord pour elle de se laver, de se laver de la saleté et des atrocités vues et photographiées à Dachau. Et on aperçoit effectivement, au pied de la baignoire, la paire de rangers maculées qui laisse sa trace noirâtre sur le tapis de bain. À Dachau, comme quinze jours auparavant à Buchenwald, Lee Miller a vu des choses terribles qu’elle a eu le courage et le professionalisme de photographier et de documenter de façon précise et rigoureuse pour qu’elles ne soient pas contestables. Que David E. Schermann et elle éprouvent ensuite le besoin de se laver, de se purifier de ces choses vues, côtoyées, senties, touchées, qui pourrait en douter ? Mais la mise en scène dit plus, fait plus, et justifie le statut iconique de cette photographie. En la concevant, c’était bien un doigt d’honneur, un magnifique doigt d’honneur (two fingers up, comme ils disent en anglais) qui était, par delà le fleuve des enfers, adressé à Hitler. Il y a d’abord la démythification, brutale : qu’elle est petitement bourgeoise, banale, modeste, voire ridicule, cette salle de bain du dictateur, avec ses carreaux de céramique, les crèmes diverses que l’on devine à gauche sur le bord de la baignoire, cette brosse et ces trois porte-savons (pourquoi trois, pourquoi donc trois ?). Il y a, évidemment, le geste de victoire, le geste non de triomphe mais de mépris, de morgue du vainqueur qui occupe la place du vaincu et essuie ses bottes, ses bottes sales, sur le linge blanc de l’ancien maître. Il y a la revanche de la vie, la revanche de cette femme épanouie s’adonnant nue au plaisir simple du bain, sur la mort, la mort symbolisée par le portrait de cet homme engoncé dans son uniforme, cet homme mortifère qui était mort avant même que d’avaler sa capsule de cyanure. Il y a la revanche de la femme sur l’homme, de cette femme sensuelle aux formes arrondies sur ce masculin grotesque, rigide, aux gestes de pantin. Il y a enfin la revanche de la Belle, de la belle Lee sur la Bête, la Bête immonde et désormais crevée et qui n’aura plus jamais le plaisir de voir ou de faire cela parce que, malgré toute sa puissance, malgré tout le mal qu’elle fit, elle n’est désormais plus rien. Je me demande tout de même : comment a-t-elle fait, comment a-t-elle fait, elle qui voulait se laver des horreurs des camps, comment a-t-elle fait pour oser poser son corps nu dans cette baignoire maudite ? Pour cela aussi, pour concevoir, mettre en scène et oser jouer elle-même ce pied de nez, cet immense pied de nez à l’histoire, il en fallait, du cran. Je crois que, moi, je n’aurais jamais osé, de peur de salir mon corps sur cet email blanc ; de peur d’être infecté, de peur des cauchemars. Il existe plusieurs versions colorisées de l’image originale C’est une de ces versions colorisées qui a servi de base à la reprise de la scène dans un récent biopic ou Lee Miller est incarnée par Kate Winslet. La célébrité, méritée, de la photo du bain ne doit pas faire oublier le reste du travail de Lee Miller. Il y a, dans cette exposition, de très belles images.

Before she was Kate Winslet, Lee Miller was a groundbreaking surrealist photography artist and photojournalist. You probably know the famous photograph of her in Hitler's abandoned bathtub, washing the mud from Dachau off, hours after she had witnessed (and photographed) the liberation of the concentration camp.  Join Hannah and Nicola for Season 4 (we're back, baby!) as they discuss how a model from Poughkeepsie became a war correspondent for fashion magazine Vogue and ended up taking some of the most important photos of the Holocaust. Women of War is written and recorded on the lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to their Elders, past and present, and any First Nations listeners today. Sovereignty was never ceded.  This episode contains mentions of sexual abuse and rape, suicide, atrocities committed by the Nazis in WWII, the Holocaust, and surrealist art.

Putin oslavuje koniec ruskej vlasteneckej vojny a premiér Fico je v Moskve opäť pritom. Na vojenskej prehliadke sa zúčastniť neplánuje a pred Moskvou bol v Nemecku, kde sa poklonil pamiatke umučených v bývalom koncentračnom tábore v Dachau.Situácia v Iráne je medzi tým neprehľadná a vyzerá to na krehké prímerie. Stredobodom pozornosti je Hormuzský preliv, ktorým pred vojnou prúdilo 20 % svetovej produkcie ropy a plynu. Prezident Trump poslal Iránu svoju mierovú dohodu, no tvrdí, že Irán riadia blázni a varuje pred ďalšími útokmi.Čo znamená premiérova návšteva Putina, ktorú niektoré štáty únie považujú za podporu agresora pre Slovensko? Čo z toho, že náš premiér chodí do Moskvy vlastne máme?A ako to vyzerá v Iráne? Je možná mierová dohoda, alebo bude vojna, ktorá má potenciál uvrhnúť svet do recesie, pokračovať ďalej? Aké sú možné scenáre? Braňo Závodský sa rozprával s generálom vo výslužbe a predsedom DS-ODS Pavlom Mackom.

When we talk about the Holocaust, most of us immediately think of death camps like Auschwitz or Dachau, chilling symbols of the Nazis' “Final Solution”. But before they reached that level of industrialised brutality, the Nazis explored other ways to remove Jews from Europe. One plan, both absurd and terrifying, was to send all Jews to the distant island of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean. How on earth did the Germans come up with that idea? What happened for the plan to take off in 1940? Why didn't it happen then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

The ladies kick things off with $5,000 sterling silver mint juleps, a full jar of fucks, and a pet photo challenge featuring a baby bird whose mother is auditioning for grounded mom of the year. Ashe takes us through a weird week in history covering the Kontiki voyage, the liberation of Dachau, the fall of Saigon, George Washington begging not to be president, Thomas Jefferson rationalizing the Louisiana Purchase, CERN releasing the worldwide web (and the eternal reminder that if it's free, you're the product), the Empire State Building, Bush's mission accomplished disaster, the King James Bible, Gone With The Wind, Kent State, and the Haymarket Affair. Christy explains why a blue moon used to mean something absurd or impossible centuries before astronomers got involved, and somehow that means Ashe owes everyone dinner on May 31. Then Michelle takes the wheel for a whole segment on intentional dressing, why we hide behind clothes, finding your three power pieces, dressing for your body shape, and the radical idea that anxiety lives in the waiting and confidence shows up after you take the step. Plus: Brian rage quitting over the spelling of Grogu, and a wiener dog t-shirt origin story.

Nazistledaren Heinrich Himmlers (1900–1945) intresse för germansk rasmystik gav honom ett särskilt engagemang för Sverige, där han trodde sig kunna finna ariernas ursprung. Inom SS finansierades arkeologiskt färgade expeditioner till Bohuslän – bland annat kring Tanums hällristningar – i syfte att “bevisa” en uråldrig germansk kulturgrund.Himmler var Reichsführer-SS och blev 1936 även chef för den tyska polisen (Chef der Deutschen Polizei). Säkerhetstjänsten SD (Sicherheitsdienst) leddes däremot operativt av Reinhard Heydrich, men Himmler stod över organisationen genom SS-maktapparaten och den samlade polis- och säkerhetsstrukturen.I denan repris av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med författaren Lennart Westberg, aktuell med boken Himmlers Sverige – Visioner och verklighet (Historiska Media).Som SS-chef var Himmler en av huvudarkitekterna bakom Förintelsen och den nazistiska terrorstaten. Under hans ledning växte SS explosionsartat och blev en politisk maktfaktor som gav honom stort handlingsutrymme. År 1933 var han med och etablerade koncentrationslägret Dachau, som kom att fungera som ett slags modell för lägersystemet.Redan 1935 initierade Himmler organisationen Ahnenerbe, vars uppgift var att med skenbart “vetenskapliga” metoder ta fram belägg för germanernas påstått ärofyllda förflutna och rasmässiga överlägsenhet. Forskning och propaganda flätades samman för att legitimera erövringskrig och avhumanisering av judar och andra grupper som nazisterna stämplade som mindervärdiga.I Himmlers föreställningsvärld utgjorde Sverige ett kärnland för den “germanska rasen”. Därför fick landet en roll i hans visioner om ett framtida storgermanskt maktblock i Nord- och Västeuropa. För att omsätta idéerna i praktik försökte SS bygga nätverk i Sverige. Enligt Westberg handlade det om påverkan, värvning och kontakter i miljöer som polis, läkarkår, jordbrukets intresseorganisationer och bland svenska frivilliga till Waffen-SS. Tanken var att krigsvana frivilliga skulle kunna bli lokala maktbärare i ett framtida “Storgermanien”.Himmler beordrade 1940 uppbyggnaden av ett nätverk av underrättelse- och säkerhetsfunktioner kopplade till Sipo/SD med syfte att samla information och påverka utvecklingen i Sverige – bland annat för att bevaka att landet inte närmade sig de allierade.Bild: Riksfürern för SS, Heinrich Himmler, besöker koncentrationslägret Dachhaus 1936, Bundesarchiv, Bild 152-11-12 / CC-BY-SA 3.0, Wikipedia, Public Domain.Musik: SS Machiert in Feindesland, SS kampsång under andra världskriget,Lyssna också på Sveriges balansakt mellan Sovjet och Nazityskland.

Na otwarcie dziewiątej już serii podcastu bardzo osobista rozmowa z Agnieszką Drotkiewicz – pisarką, dziennikarką, autorką esejów i wywiadów, znawczynią opery i twórczynią libretta operowego „Antonin. Tętent”. W swojej najnowszej powieści „Rekonstrukcja. Połowa twarzy tonie w mroku” (opublikowanej w Wydawnictwie Osnova) pisarka odsłania zaszytą w historii jej bohaterki Ewy, swoją własną historię dorastania dziewczyny z widoczną wadą wrodzoną – rozszczepieniem podniebienia i nosa. Przyglądamy się dzieciństwu rozmówczyni pomiędzy domem, a szpitalami i kolejnymi operacjami twarzy, zmaganiu się z własną cielesnością i wizerunkiem w okresie dojrzewania. Rozmawiamy o warszawskim dorastaniu w latach 90. i wczesnych 2000., głośnym debiucie Agnieszki w wieku 22 lat książką „Paris, London, Dachau. Rozmawiamy o tym czego Drotkiewicz nauczyła się od wielu swoich rozmówców, a także zagłębiamy się w jej literackie, operowe i kulinarne pasje. Ale przede wszystkim rozmawiamy o budowaniu samoświadomości i oparcia w sobie, bo jak mówi bohaterka jej książki: „Muszę sama siebie uratować. Chrząstka po chrząstce, oddech po oddechu.”Podcastu „Jak ona to robi” możesz posłuchać na platformach Spotify, Apple Podcasts oraz YouTube.

Host Radell Lewis breaks down Ohio's 2026 State Auditor race between Republican Frank LaRose, Democrat Annette Blackwell, and Libertarian write-in Aidan Jeffery, then runs through a wild week of Ohio political news on Purple Political Breakdown. This episode covers why the Auditor's office matters (hint: it's the only statewide office with the power to catch public officials misusing your tax dollars), how current Auditor Keith Faber's run for Attorney General is part of what reporters are calling a "musical chairs" pattern among term-limited Ohio Republicans, and whether LaRose's Secretary of State record (including the 2023 Issue 1 reversal, a Hatch Act complaint, and 1,200 alleged voter fraud cases referred to the DOJ in late 2025) matches the job description of Ohio's chief accountability officer. On the other side of the aisle, Maple Heights Mayor Annette Blackwell pitches 16 years of accounting experience and a documented fiscal turnaround that won the Auditor's own Clean Audit Award three years running. In the news roundup: Ohio quietly adds "Trump Wildlife Area" as an official name through administrative rule, podcaster Myron Gaines performs a Sieg Heil salute on the steps of Ohio University's Memorial Auditorium in the first real test of Senate Bill 1, Columbus restaurant La Chatelaine cancels a Casey Putsch fundraiser over his comments about Hitler and Nazis, Governor Mike DeWine honors his late father's role liberating Dachau, a 2019 Bexley police report resurfaces on Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton, Signal Ohio reporter Jake Zuckerman exposes Ohio nursing homes dumping medically fragile patients at homeless shelters, and a DraftKings-linked super PAC places over $1.1 million in ads backing Ohio Republican legislative primary candidates.

This sermon calls Christians to recognize Christ's suffering not as a substitute that removes their own trials, but as the perfect model by which they are to measure and endure their own crosses. Emphasizing that Christ descended, suffered, and endured mockery to lead humanity into glory with Him, the message insists that the path to resurrection always passes through suffering. Drawing on the witness of the martyrs and the profound prayer of St. Nicholas Velimirovich—written amid the horrors of Dachau concentration camp imprisonment—the sermon highlights the transformative power of suffering when embraced with humility, even to the point of blessing one's enemies. Ultimately, believers are exhorted to bear the particular cross given to them with patience and love, trusting that through these trials God conforms them to the image of Christ and leads them into true spiritual freedom and eternal glory.

For 25 years, Erin Blankenship has dedicated her life to preserving the stories of Holocaust survivors and educating the next generation.

Bob Boeke was 16 years old when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor in December 1941. Nearly two years later, he enlisted in the U.S. Army as part of a program to help get a college education and become an officer. But the program soon closed down. After basic training, Boeke was assigned to an intelligence and reconnaissance unit within the 86th Infantry Division.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Boeke tells us about intelligence and reconnaissance training, finding and removing German mines on the Normandy beaches, dealing with German mortar fire on the way to the front, and what he experienced after getting to the front lines.Boeke also shares how he and other recon soldiers scouted out whether the Germans had evacuated the villages they came to or whether they had retreated, how he got across the Rhine, and horrors he witnessed at Dachau. You'll also find out how Boeke ended up in the Pacific at the end of the war.Finally, we'll learn how the 75th anniversary of D-Day helped to reunite Boeke with the girlfriend he had to leave in the 1940's and how they tied the knot all these years later.

The Creed says that Christ descended into hell. In 1942, hell had barbed wire.This episode tells the story of St. Titus Brandsma , Carmelite priest, journalist, mystic, and martyr, who was imprisoned in Dachau for refusing to cooperate with Nazi propaganda. In the middle of a death camp, he smuggled the Eucharist, heard confessions, consoled the dying, and showed radical kindness to the very guards who beat him.This is not just a historical account. It is a reflection on redemptive suffering, the Eucharist in darkness, martyrdom, and what it means to carry Christ into places that seem beyond redemption.St. Titus did not simply die in Dachau. He lived there as a priest. And in doing so, he mirrored Christ's descent into the depths.May his witness teach us how to love in the darkest places.St. Titus Brandsma, pray for us.

President Trump has named the members of his 'Board of Peace' that will oversee the second phase of the Gaza peace plan. Among them are the US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, and the former British prime minister, Sir Tony Blair. But no Palestinian or Arab has been appointed. Also, two tiny fragments of one of mediaeval Europe's greatest artworks, the Bayeux Tapestry, have been returned to France from Germany years after they were stolen. Reza Pahlavi, the exiled son of the late Shah of Iran, has called on the international community to protect the Iranian people by degrading the Islamic regime's capacity for repression. A group of British parents take TikTok to court, saying their children died after taking part in dangerous viral trends. And the story of rare drawings by a prisoner at the Dachau concentration camp which are being sold in New York.

In this episode of Explaining History, Nick revisits Nikolaus Wachsmann's monumental study, KL: A History of the Nazi Concentration Camps.We explore a critical and often misunderstood aspect of the Holocaust: the relationship between the Concentration Camps (KL) and the extermination camps of the East. Why were Jews initially marginalized within the KL system? How did the failure of the war against the Soviet Union in 1941 shift Nazi policy from the exploitation of Soviet POWs to the mass enslavement and murder of Jews?We delve into the infamous Wannsee Conference, decoding the euphemisms of "resettlement" and "natural wastage," and examine how chaotic decision-making at the top of the Nazi hierarchy led to the transformation of Auschwitz-Birkenau into an industrial center of death.Plus: Stay tuned for an announcement about an upcoming live masterclass on the Russian Revolution and Stalinism for students.Key Topics:The KL vs. Death Camps: Understanding the distinction between camps like Dachau and extermination centers like Treblinka.The Wannsee Conference: How bureaucrats planned genocide over lunch.Annihilation Through Labour: The shift from Soviet POWs to Jewish slave labour.The Transformation of Auschwitz: How Birkenau became the primary site for the "Final Solution."Books Mentioned:KL: A History of the Nazi Concentration Camps by Nikolaus WachsmannThe Third Reich at War by Richard J.

Hello Poison Friends! We are carrying on with our series on Human experimentation during WWII and we are still discussing that done by Nazi doctors and the like. This episode is specifically on the diseases that were intentionally spread to prisoners and experimental subjects being kept at concentration camps, mainly Dachau, Sachsenhausen, Natzweiler, and Auschwitz (not that it did not happen elsewhere). The main studies were those concerning Malaria, Epidemic Jaundice (or Hepatitis A), and Typhus. The excuse behind such horrific actions was the study of possible testing, diagnosing, and treating these illnesses for the benefit of Nazi soldiers. They subjected originally healthy people (apart from the recent issues of starvation and malnutrition also caused by the Nazi's disregard for human life) to terrible diseases and many died as a result, some from the disease and some from the treatments. For the malaria experiments, prisoners were often cut on the arm (sometimes superficially, sometimes deep) and malaria from cultures would be applied to the area. Some were also infected by being made to hold small cages of infected mosquitoes or by being forced to keep their hands in infected mosquitoes cages. Still others were directly injected with malaria infected blood from others who had specifically been exposed to the illness for such a purpose as to provide the infectious blood. Hepatitis A was also intentionally given to prisoners to see the effects and the outcome was brutal, also leading to deaths. The resulting liver disease in many of these patients was a slow and painful death. Some also died during testing procedures or when given experimental drugs. Epidemic Typhus is spread via lice, and this had become a problem for Nazi soldiers who had invaded the Soviet Union. War is a dirty business in many ways. Prisoners were exposed to infected lice, but more often they were injected with infected blood. Victims often suffered great illness and pain before death, again from the illness or experimental treatments. We will be mentioning the doctors indicted and convicted of such horrors as well as those not at the Nuremberg Medical trials simply because they had already been charged and convicted and sentenced to death in previous trials. Main trigger warnings for this episode include mentions of torture and death (including mentions of suicide). There is nothing graphic, but the crimes themselves are despicable.

Hello Poison Friends! We are back with more horrible acts committed by Nazis in WWII. The focus for this episode is a series of experiments done mainly at Dachau, as far as we know from records that were recovered, and they centered around proposals put forth by the Air Force and Navy in Nazi Germany at that time. I will also go over some of the doctors and other personnel responsible for these horrors, such as Dr. Sigmund Rascher, and what eventually became of them. The High Altitude experiments involved forcing prisoners into a machine that could be sealed and allowed for serious pressure changes. The idea was to test the reaction of the human body to free fall from the heights of up to 68,900 ft. The pressure and lack of oxygen at that height would be devastating, especially when forced into a quick ascent and just dropped. However, this is what hundreds were made to experience in the chamber they were sealed in. Many died as a result.The Freezing Experiments were also torture. Prisoners were subjected to freezing water or made to stand naked in the freezing cold outside to simulate hypothermia and the like. They practiced various rewarming techniques on these victims as well. There were many deaths from these as well. We are also discussing experiments done on prisoners (some who had also survived previous experiments) in which they were starved and given seawater to drink. Those performing these experiments watched the victims suffer from severe dehydration and organ failure as a result.

HEADLINE: Remembering Resilience and a WWII Hero: The Children's Tree and the Legacy of Edward Shames GUEST NAMES: John Batchelor (Host), Thaddeus McCotter of American Greatness, and Malcolm Hoenlein 200-WORD SUMMARY: The program discussed the dedication of the Children's Tree in Battery Park, a powerful symbol of resilience and hope grown from cuttings of a tree secretly nurtured by Jewish children at Terezín (Theresienstadt) concentration camp during the Holocaust. In 1943, teacher Irma Lauscher courageously smuggled the original sapling into the camp so that children could celebrate Arbor Day and maintain a connection to life and normalcy amid unimaginable circumstances. The children sacrificed their precious water rations to care for the tree, demonstrating extraordinary determination and spirit. The 15-foot tree now standing in Battery Park will be cared for by children at the Battery Park School, ensuring that this legacy of hope continues for future generations. The segment also paid tribute to the late Edward Shames, the last surviving member of the legendary Band of Brothers (Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment), who died at age 99. Shames participated in D-Day (Operation Overlord) and was among the first members of the 101st Airborne Division to enter Dachau concentration camp upon its liberation, witnessing firsthand the horrors of the Holocaust. In a remarkable footnote to history, he later acquired Hitler's private cognac from the Eagle's Nest, a personal memento from the fall of the Third Reich. 1698 JERUSALEM The segment also paid tribute to the late Edward Shames, the last surviving member of the legendary Band of Brothers (Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment), who died at age 99.

As our show aired Erev Yom Kippur, we again presented excerpts of our past interviews on The Yiddish Voice/דאָס ייִדישע קול with Holocaust survivors who died during the past year. Since our previous episode, we've lost Ben Lesser, who died the first day of Rosh Hashona, so we were unable to include this in our previous week's show. The remainder of the show is a repeat of the previous week's show. Ben Lesser (died September 23, 2025, age 96) - Ben was a Holocaust Survivor, Author, Lecturer, and visionary founder of The ZACHOR Holocaust Remembrance Foundation. He was known around the world for his courageous testimony, tireless advocacy and unwavering commitment to education and remembrance. Born in Krakow, Poland in 1928 to Shari Segal and Lazar Leser. Ben was the second youngest of five children, Moshe Leser, Lola Lieber-Schwartz, Goldie Leser and baby brother Naphtali Leser. At age ten his life as a boy was forever changed. He endured four concentration camps, a seven-week death march, and two death trains, one of which was the notorious ill-fated death train from Buchenwald to Dachau where of the 6,000 inmates that walked on, only 18 walked off. Ben was the last living survivor from that train. We reached him by Zoom on Apr. 17, 2023. Originally aired April 19, 2023.
