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. Listener discretion is advised. It may not be suitable for all listeners. Statements made within this podcast are ours alone and do not reflect the views of our employers.    

Ellen Germain sieht das Erinnern an die Shoah vor einer großen Herausforderung. Die US-Beauftragte für Holocaust-Fragen befürchtet eine Verharmlosung der NS-Verbrechen. So könnten KI generierte Fotos und Videos die Geschichte verzerren oder fälschen. Engelbrecht, Sebastian www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interview der Woche

Joop en Nausicaa praten over de huidige situatie in Israel nu er geen overeenkomst tussen de VS en Iran is; de column in de telegraaf van Nausicaa over de haat tegen Jetten; Het opiniestuk van Jos Palm die stelt dat Israël de Holocaust kapot bombardeert; na 4 en 5 mei worden sommige steden gestraft met nakba-herdenkingen georganiseerd door extremistische pally-organisaties en de schande van de biënnale van Venetië waar Nederland ook aan mee deed en heel veel andere zaken.

Send us Fan MailSeit dem Ende des 2. Weltkriegs ab es einen Konsens in der deutschen Erinnerungskultur. Dieser wird seit einigen Jahren in Frage gestellt. Kampfbegriffe wie Schuldkult oder Mahnmahl der Schande werden genutzt um den bisherigen Konsens über das Gedenken an die Verbrechen des 2. Weltkriegs zu diskreditieren. Was sagt die Bibel zum Thema Erinnerungskultur und wie sollen wir als Gläubige dieses Thema betrachten? Antworten darauf erhaltet ihr in der heutigen Folge. Seid gesegnet.   Feedback und Anregungen könnt ihr gerne an prophetic.apostolic.ministry@gmail.com schicken. Music credit for podcast:Epic Cinematic Trailer | ELITE by Alex-Productions | https://onsound.eu/ Music promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.com Creative Commons / Attribution 3.0 Unported License (CC BY 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_USSupport the show

1. Spirit Airlines Bailout Debate A proposed U.S. government bailout of Spirit Airlines ($500 million for ~90% ownership) was considered but ultimately rejected. Government should not own or run private companies. Bailouts are seen as wasteful and ineffective (compared to “burning money” metaphor). Argument that free-market capitalism is more effective than government control. 2. Impact of Spirit Airlines Collapse Emphasis on human consequences, especially job losses. A retired pilot missed his final flight due to shutdown. Received a symbolic sendoff from Southwest Airlines—highlighting solidarity and empathy within the industry. Displaced workers may find jobs elsewhere, but hardship remains. 3. Tucker Carlson He spreads misinformation and makes controversial or extreme statements. Allegations that he: Attacks political figures (especially Ted Cruz). Promotes or normalizes extremist views. Makes contradictory or false claims in interviews. His credibility and audience influence are declining. Heated exchange regarding: Claims of violence and moral responsibility by public officials. Comparisons involving extremism (Nazism, Holocaust references). Sympathizes with authoritarian regimes or controversial figures. Criticizes U.S. policies and capitalism. Promotes anti-American or antisemitic narratives. 6. Pramila Jayapal and Cuban Policy Rep. Pramila Jayapal: Accused of supporting Cuba’s government by encouraging efforts to supply oil. Criticized for: Calling U.S. actions “illegal” or harmful. Describing actions against Venezuela’s Maduro as “kidnapping.” Opposing viewpoint: Siding with communist regimes over U.S. interests. 7. Anti-Communism Argument Major ideological stance: Communism is historically destructive (oppression, poverty, violence). Personal anecdote: Family experience with Cuban communism used to reinforce position. Vision proposed: A post-communist Cuba with: Free markets U.S. alignment Economic investment and tourism growth Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

The Great Repair: Emotions, Memory, and the German–Jewish Settlement after the Holocaust (Cornell UP, 2026) explores how Jews and Germans began reparations discussions fewer than seven years after the Holocaust—a momentous achievement relegated to the margins of Holocaust scholarship and memory—and the complexities that emerged from the resulting settlement. Professor Gideon Reuveni illuminates the swift transition and extraordinary chapter in postwar history from the horrors of the Holocaust to a negotiating table where Germans and Jews discussed reparations. Both sides faced the monumental challenge of addressing the injustices of National Socialism through complex deliberations on compensation for collective and individual losses, restitution of property, support for survivors, and formal acknowledgment of Nazi crimes. These negotiations marked a crucial step toward acknowledging historical responsibility and pursuing meaningful redress. The Great Repair reveals the events, actors, and decisions that led to the signing of the agreement on September 10, 1952, by West Germany, Israel, and the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany. Ultimately, the enactment of this settlement set a global precedent that genocide cannot go unpunished and moral debts must be paid. It was a historic undertaking of immense scope—unmatched in the history of international relations, just as the extermination of the Jewish people was unprecedented in human history. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

With all of the black-and-white moralizing in our world today, we decided to bring back an old show from 2011 about the little bit of bad that's in all of us...and the little bit of really, really bad that's in some of us.   Cruelty, violence, badness... in this episode we begin with a chilling statistic: 91% of men, and 84% of women, have fantasized about killing someone. We take a look at one particular fantasy lurking behind these numbers, and wonder what this shadow world might tell us about ourselves and our neighbors. Then, we reconsider what Stanley Milgram's famous experiment really revealed about human nature (it's both better and worse than we thought). Next, we meet a man who scrambles our notions of good and evil: chemist Fritz Haber, who won a Nobel Prize in 1918...around the same time officials in the US were calling him a war criminal. And we end with the story of a man who chased one of the most prolific serial killers in US history, then got a chance to ask him the question that had haunted him for years: why?

Ian Buruma discusses the moral dilemmas of survival, focusing on Stella Kübler, who betrayed other Jews to save her parents from Auschwitz. He asserts that information about the Holocaust was widely available via the BBC and soldiers' letters, meaning that for many Berliners, ignorance was a choice. (6/16)1945 

SCHEDULE OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 5-7-2026.1945 BERLIN.Ian Buruma discusses his book Stay Alive, focusing on his father Leo's 1943 decision to enter mandatory labor in a Berlin factory to protect his parents from Nazi retaliation. The narrative explores Berlin's transition from a striving capital into a city facing bombings, malnutrition, and lice. (1/16)Ian Buruma describes Joseph Goebbels as a master propagandist who used entertainment to distract Berliners from wartime horrors. He explains "unpolitical" as a psychological justification for ignoring Nazi atrocities. The segment also details the complex Nuremberg racial laws used to systematically categorize and persecute Jewish populations. (2/16)Ian Buruma defines the wartime greeting "Stay Alive" and profiles resistors like von Moltke. He discusses jazz guitarist Coco Schumann, who survived Auschwitz by playing in a band while others were executed. The segment also covers the Wannsee Conference, where the "final solution" was organized. (3/16)Ian Buruma details the "U-boats," young Jews living clandestine lives in Berlin without legal papers. He describes the city's descent into lawlessness following the defeat at Stalingrad. Survival became transactional, relying on the goodwill or opportunism of strangers in a society where Hitler was the law. (4/16)Ian Buruma examines the failure of strategic bombing to break civilian morale, which instead fostered solidarity. He recounts his father's letters from a Berlin labor barracks, describing the harsh conditions of malnutrition and vermin. He also highlights diaries showing how individuals navigated the criminal regime. (5/16)Ian Buruma discusses the moral dilemmas of survival, focusing on Stella Kübler, who betrayed other Jews to save her parents from Auschwitz. He asserts that information about the Holocaust was widely available via the BBC and soldiers' letters, meaning that for many Berliners, ignorance was a choice. (6/16)Ian Buruma recounts the final months of the war, dominated by Goebbels' "death cult" propaganda and the film Colberg. He describes the trial of resistor von Moltke, who stood up to the sadistic judge Roland Freisler, and the eventual bombing of the court that killed the judge. (7/16)Ian Buruma details the Soviet occupation of Berlin, characterized by mass looting and rape. He tracks the fates of his book's protagonists: his father Leo narrowly escaped execution by a Russian soldier, while resistance leader Borchardtwas tragically killed by a stray shot after liberation. (8/16)Anatol Lieven analyzes China's diplomatic strategy, noting Beijing's desire for a Trump-Xi summit despite Middle Eastern conflicts. China aims to manage trade tariffs and stabilize Taiwan relations, believing that U.S. involvement in external wars may ultimately weaken American alliances in Asia and strengthen China's regional standing. (9/16)Anatol Lieven analyzes reports of Vladimir Putin operating from bunkers to avoid precision strikes. He discusses Ukraine's emergence as a "drone war startup" and the resulting economic strain. Lieven notes that while the frontline remains frozen, Russian public support for the conflict is beginning to crumble. (10/16)Rick Fisher reveals China's plans to double the size of the Tiangong space station by 2030. He warns of its military dual-use potential, suggesting the station and Shuntan telescope could serve as orbital "battle stations" for surveillance or strikes, providing China with a significant new strategic deterrent. (11/16)Rick Fisher explores the militarization of the Moon, citing Chinese interest in lunar radar and "moon hoppers" for resource discovery. He describes a technological competition with the U.S. involving nuclear power plants, lasers, and satellite constellations intended for both peaceful research and potential offensive or defensive combat. (12/16)Veronique de Rugy critiques government-matched savings plans like the "Trump IRA." She argues these technocratic fixes add to the national debt without addressing core tax code flaws. She highlights how high penalties for early withdrawals and payroll taxes effectively discourage lower-income workers from saving for the future. (13/16)Jim McTague examines the AI boom, noting the high valuation of DeepSeek and its use of black-market chips. He discusses a lawsuit against Character AI for unlicensed medical advice and the economic impact of data centers, which provide local tax revenue but consume significant real estate. (14/16)Ken Croswell describes the Milky Way's structure as a barred spiral galaxy. He explains that the central bar exerts massive gravitational force. This gravity has trapped billions of "Trojan stars" into two vast whirlpools, similar to how Jupiter's gravity captures Trojan asteroids in its orbit. (15/16)Ken Croswell details the discovery of the "Hercules stream," stars resonating with the galaxy's central bar. He notes that as the bar's rotation slows, there is a 20% chance Earth's solar system will join this "exclusive club" of Trojan stars in two billion years, changing our galactic position. (16/16)

What happens when someone decides a legacy is too important to let fade? In this episode, David Peters shares the story behind Ten Boom Coffee and how Corrie ten Boom's life deeply shaped his family.  What began as a vision for a coffee shop in Jerusalem became something much bigger: a mission centered on remembrance, reconciliation, and standing with the Jewish people.

History teaches that antisemitism is a disease which begins with the Jews but does not end with them. Once antisemitism is unleashed, it knows no bounds and can attack the very fabric of society. This deadly strain of hatred often turns against other minority groups too, not to mention foundational democratic values, beginning with equal rights and equal protection before the law. Therefore, antisemitism should be viewed as a universal human rights issue of importance to all, and not solely as a parochial Jewish or Israeli concern.Antisemitism: What Everyone Needs to Know (Oxford UP, 2025) explores how, in the 21st century, antisemitism is once again resurgent. In recent years, the FBI reported that well over half of all religiously motivated hate crimes in the United States targeted Jews, even though Jews comprise just over two percent of the population. It is striking how little understood antisemitism, including the term itself, still is. This extends quite widely to political leaders, educational authorities, law enforcement and the judiciary, civic groups, and media outlets. Polls have also shown how knowledge of the Holocaust, which was widely considered to be a firewall against the resurgence of antisemitism, is declining, notwithstanding ongoing attention to the topic in education, museums and memorials, and culture.

As Europe commemorates the 81st anniversary of the Allied victory over the Nazis this May 8, many in Germany are discovering long-buried family secrets. Nazi party membership lists – saved from destruction in 1945 – are now available online. In just a few clicks, the Nazi past of millions of German families is within reach.

New Hampshire Corrections Commissioner William Hart says his department is struggling to find enough people to staff the state's positions. Currently half of the positions in the corrections department are vacant. The state Executive Council voted Wednesday to approve $12 million to cover overtime for guards currently working at the state prisons. Gov. Kelly Ayotte says she's committed to making sure young people at the state's youth detention facility are properly treated. That comes as the state Attorney General continues to investigate claims of physical abuse at the Sununu Youth Services Center. And state lawmakers are moving ahead to formally censure state Rep. Travis Corcoran for inflammatory social media posts, including referencing the Holocaust in response to a Jewish colleague's invitation to a bipartisan Karaoke event. We discuss these stories and more on this week's edition of the New Hampshire News Recap.

Volgens Arnon Grunberg is moralisme niet alleen streng, maar ook onhaalbaar. „Mij zijn echt heel veel slechte dingen niet vreemd.” Hij vertelt open dat hij vroeger naar bordelen ging en dat hij tijdens een ruzie zijn ex een keer aan de haren over de vloer trok. „Ik ben niet zonder fouten. Ik ben ook gewoon een gemiddelde zondaar.” Wie verwacht dat mensen perfect zijn, vraagt volgens hem het onmogelijke: „Dan ben je voortdurend teleurgesteld.”De mens is verleidbaar, volgens Grunberg. Die overtuiging hangt samen met zijn achtergrond. Als iemand die in de schaduw van de Holocaust is opgegroeid, nu in de Verenigde Staten woont onder de zweep van Trump en een zus heeft die in een Israëlische nederzetting leeft, vindt hij de belofte van een perfecte wereld misleidend: „Waarom zouden wij recht hebben op een paradijs, totale gelijkheid en de ware rechtvaardigheid? De geschiedenis is een aaneenschakeling van catastrofes.”Heeft u vragen, suggesties of ideeën over onze journalistiek?

Deutschlands grausame Vergangenheit im Bezug auf den Antisemitismus ist uns allen bewusst, doch die Wurzeln dieses Hasses reichen weit über die Zeit des Nationalsozialismus hinaus. In dieser Folge begeben wir uns auf eine historische Spurensuche: Wie konnte es dazu kommen, dass Jüdinnen und Juden über Jahrhunderte hinweg dämonisiert wurden? Wir beleuchten die Anfänge in der hellenistischen Antike, als religiöse Unterschiede erstmals zu massiven Spannungen führten , und untersuchen den folgenschweren Wandel zum christlichen Antijudaismus. Wir diskutieren, wie aus theologischen Konflikten die gefährliche „Gottesmordlegende“ entstand und warum Konzepte wie „Othering“ bereits im Mittelalter genutzt wurden, um jüdische Gemeinden systematisch auszugrenzen. Von grausamen Verschwörungserzählungen wie der „Blutlüge“ und der Brunnenvergiftung während der Pest bis hin zur wirtschaftlichen Stigmatisierung und den antijüdischen Schriften Martin Luthers: wir zeigen auf, wie sich Vorurteile über die Jahrhunderte verfestigten. Den tragischen und industriell organisierten Höhepunkt findet diese Entwicklung im Holocaust, in dem sechs Millionen Menschen der systematischen Entmenschlichung und staatlichen Gewalt zum Opfer fielen. Diese Folge ist mehr als nur ein Blick in die Geschichtsbücher, sie ist auch ein Appell für die Gegenwart. Denn wer versteht, wie antisemitische Denkmuster entstehen und funktionieren, kann ihnen heute entschlossener entgegentreten.

History teaches that antisemitism is a disease which begins with the Jews but does not end with them. Once antisemitism is unleashed, it knows no bounds and can attack the very fabric of society. This deadly strain of hatred often turns against other minority groups too, not to mention foundational democratic values, beginning with equal rights and equal protection before the law. Therefore, antisemitism should be viewed as a universal human rights issue of importance to all, and not solely as a parochial Jewish or Israeli concern.Antisemitism: What Everyone Needs to Know (Oxford UP, 2025) explores how, in the 21st century, antisemitism is once again resurgent. In recent years, the FBI reported that well over half of all religiously motivated hate crimes in the United States targeted Jews, even though Jews comprise just over two percent of the population. It is striking how little understood antisemitism, including the term itself, still is. This extends quite widely to political leaders, educational authorities, law enforcement and the judiciary, civic groups, and media outlets. Polls have also shown how knowledge of the Holocaust, which was widely considered to be a firewall against the resurgence of antisemitism, is declining, notwithstanding ongoing attention to the topic in education, museums and memorials, and culture.

How did a state founded in the shadow of catastrophe arrive at this moment of profound crisis?In this urgent and deeply reflective conversation, historian and genocide scholar Professor Omer Bartov joins the Britain Palestine Project to examine the political, moral, and historical trajectory of Israel from its founding to the present day.Drawing on decades of research into nationalism, war, memory, and mass violence, Bartov explores the ideological foundations of the Israeli state, the long-term consequences of occupation, and the growing international debate around human rights, apartheid, and genocide. He also reflects on the changing role of Holocaust memory in Israeli political culture, the collapse of the peace process, and the dangers posed by rising extremism and dehumanisation.This episode asks difficult but essential questions: What went wrong? Could it have been different? And what might accountability, justice, and coexistence look like now?Professor Omer Bartov is an Israeli-American scholar and Dean's Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Brown University. He has written extensively on war crimes, interethnic relations, nationalism, and genocide.His books include:Anatomy of a Genocide: The Life and Death of a Town Called Buczacz (National Jewish Book Award winner)Genocide, the Holocaust and Israel-Palestine: First-Person History in Times of CrisisIsrael: What Went Wrong?

Sogenannte Stolpersteine erinnern an die Opfer des Nationalsozialismus und des Holocaust. Die goldfarbenen Gedenktafeln aus Messing sind etwa so gross wie ein Pflasterstein. Es gibt sie in ganz Europa, auch in der Schweiz. In Zürich sind sechs neue dazugekommen.

In this special bonus show, Gaslit Nation reminds you that Hitler and Trump rose to power in very similar ways, and why we must stay grounded in that historical truth. The fate of the world literally depends on it. The Holocaust and World War II happened, because people didn't want to believe it would be so bad. Normalcy bias is a dangerous coping mechanism.  As the world marks the 81st anniversary of Victory in Europe Day, with Putin, like Hitler, hiding in his bunker, reports of his hands shaking, of parades canceled or scaled back across Russia–it's a reminder that we can stand up to fascism, when we align our will with a higher purpose, like Ukraine and its allies.  To celebrate the power of remembering, and Andrea's birthday (caaaaake!), we're opening this Monday's Gaslit Nation Salon at 4pm E.T. with a reading of the first 10 pages of her screenplay, about the power of forbidden love in a time of fascism. To join us, look out for the Zoom link posted Monday morning on Patreon. This week's bonus show, available in full for our subscribers at the Truth-teller ($5/month) level and higher, we continue on with Gal Beckerman about his new book How to Be a Dissident.

David Harris is joined by Meng Yang, a professor who teaches China's first university-level Yiddish course and lectures widely on Jewish civilization, the Holocaust, and contemporary antisemitism.

At a sparsely attended funeral for a once-prominent philanthropist, an unexpected tenth man completed the minyan — and led the gathered mourners to another grave. There lay an unnamed Holocaust survivor, nearly erased from memory. Two funerals on one day revealed a haunting truth: in Jewish tradition, death is not the end — being forgotten is. And remembering is an act of redemption.

In this powerful episode of the Bible and Theology Matters Podcast, Dr. Paul Weaver interviews Dr. Michael Rydelnik as he shares the gripping story of his parents' survival during the The Holocaust and how their experiences shaped his life, faith, and ministry.Dr. Rydelnik recounts growing up in an observant Jewish home, discovering that his mother was secretly a believer in Jesus Christ (Yeshua), and the personal journey that led him from skepticism to faith through the persistent prayers and faithful witness of those who believed the gospel is for the Jewish people.This episode explores:The reality of Holocaust survival and generational impactThe rise of antisemitism and Holocaust denial todayWhat it means to be a Messianic JewThrough this deeply personal story, you'll gain a greater appreciation for how God works in the lives of the Jewish people. This episode helps listeners better appreciate His covenant purposes through the lived experience of Dr. Rydelnik.

In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to. [x] Websters 1828 – Webster’s Dictionary 1828 – Probity > Primarily, tried virtue or integrity, or approved actions; but in general, strict honesty; sincerity; veracity; integrity in principle, or strict conformity of actions to the laws of justice. probity of mind or principle is best evinced by probity of conduct in social dealings, particularly in adhering to strict integrity in the observance and performance of rights called imperfect, which public laws to not reach and cannot enforce. ‘On This Day’ Related [x] WW3 – Albert Pike and the Three World Wars > The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the ‘agentur’ of the ‘Illuminati’ between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion. We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time.

Produced by KSQD 90.7, 89.5 & 89.7FMThe American Dream at its best is an ethical ideal and a moral compass. If respected and sustained, it can guide the United States through Trump 2.0. Anchored in the US Constitution, Saving the American Dream features meditations for dark times. Meditations are intentional acts of focused attention. They seek insight—a clear and deep understanding—about critical issues.What, for example, is most important for the United States today? Are we Americans doing the best we can? How may inquiry about the American Dream advance the reflection and action needed now to support and defend the Constitution of the United States?Saving the American Dream is a journey that goes where such questionslead. Its fundamental premise is that individuals moved to communal action by warned awareness and committed resistance are indispensable to meet challenges that grow by the day. Guidance from reliable American writers—philosophers, historians, novelists, poets, essayists, religious thinkers—maps the way.”Interview Guest: John Roth, is the Edward J.

Send us Fan MailWe're joined by American expat resident Cherie Siebert to trace Vienna from its Habsburg-scale grandeur to its everyday pleasures. Vienna can feel like a living museum and a laid-back neighborhood on the same afternoon. We talk through how easy it is to get around on foot and by public transportation, where palace areas like Hofburg, Schönbrunn, and the Belvedere fit into a real day, and why seasonal markets mix architecture, craft, and local tradition. From St Stephen's Cathedral's tower and crypt to the surprising places where Roman ruins appear under your feet, Vienna keeps handing you history.Then we follow the sound. Cherie shares her favorite place to hear classical music, the Musikverein Golden Hall, plus the pull of the Vienna State Opera. As for art, the city's deep museum bench, including Gustav Klimt's iconic “The Kiss.” We also make room for the city's hard truths, including Holocaust memorial reminders found by simply wandering the center.To round it out, we get into Vienna coffeehouse culture, where to skip long tourist lines, why locals treat cake and coffee as a ritual, and how wine bars and nearby wine inns expand the food story. We also cover parks, Danube swimming spots, the Prater Ferris wheel at night, and easy day trips by train to Salzburg, the Wachau Valley, Bratislava, Budapest, and even Prague. If you enjoyed this, subscribe, and share the episode with a fellow traveler.**Cherie Siebert is an expat who lives in and loves Vienna.

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!

Erich Fromm, the prominent twentieth-century public intellectual and psychoanalyst, was recognized for his courageous stand against fascism, racism, and human destructiveness. Until now, however, little has been known about the extent to which Fromm's personal experience of Nazi Germany and the Holocaust shaped his outlook and work.In Edge of Catastrophe: Erich Fromm, Fascism and the Holocaust (Oxford 2024), Roger Frie introduces for the first time the unpublished Holocaust correspondence in Fromm's family. The letters provide insight into Fromm's life as a German-Jewish refugee and help us to understand the effect of Nazi Germany's racial terror on Fromm and his German-Jewish family. In the aftermath of the genocide, Fromm returned again and again to the themes of responsibility, social justice, and human solidarity, yet without revealing his own experience. As this book powerfully shows, Fromm's social, political, and psychological writings take on new meaning in light of the traumas and tragedies that he and his family experienced.The image of Fromm that emerges from this book enriches our understanding of what it means to be both a social critic and practicing psychologist. In light of the racial hatred and antisemitism we see today, Frie demonstrates that a politics of engagement and a psychology of well-being go hand in hand. Frie suggests that there is much to be learned from the urgency in Fromm's writings as we seek to respond to the social crises and the renewed threat of fascism in our present age. Roger Frie is Professor of Psychoanalysis and Education at the University of Vienna in Austria, Affiliate Professor of Psychiatry at the University of British Columbia, and Professor Emeritus at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, Canada. He is also Faculty and Supervisor at the William Alanson White Institute of Psychiatry, Psychoanalysis and Psychology, and the NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis, and associate member of the Columbia University Seminar on Cultural Memory in New York. He is a clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst in private practice as well as a trained historian and social philosopher and brings both of these perspectives to bear in his publications. He is author most recently Wounds of Silence: Legacies of Genocide and Racial Violence (Oxford 2026), Edge of Catastrophe: Erich Fromm, Fascism and the Holocaust (Oxford 2024) and Not in My Family: German Memory and Responsibility after the Holocaust (Oxford 2017). His most recent edited book is Culture, Politics and Race in the Making of Interpersonal Psychoanalysis (Routledge, 2022, with Pascal Sauvayre). He is additionally co-editor of Contemporary Psychoanalysis. Your host for this episode, Ben Greenberg, PsyD is a psychoanalytic psychologist and founding director of both the Center for Dynamic Practice (CFDP) in Santa Fe, NM and Southwestern Alliance for Psychoanalytic Psychology (SWAPP).
