Podcasts about Weimar

Jane Rogoyska explores the history of Paris's Hôtel Lutetia, which served as a haven for fleeing Weimar intellectuals before becoming a Nazi military intelligence headquarters in 1940. Rogoyska traces waves of refugees fleeing Nazi persecution, including writers Heinrich Mann and Lion Feuchtwanger. These figures struggled to warn an indifferent Europe about the dangers of fascism. Despite personal tragedies and bureaucratic challenges, literary giants like James Joyce, Samuel Beckett, and Arthur Koestler frequented the hotel, carrying poison just in case they were captured.

CONTENTS JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW 8-27-2026.Anatol Lieven warns that foreign policy establishments in both the United States and Britain have embraced a dangerous militarism. He highlights how the Biden administration failed to rejoin the nuclear deal with Iran, seeking instead a harder bargain. Furthermore, Europe faces acute escalation risks over Ukraine; Russia has warned of retaliation against Britain for authorizing the use of Storm Shadow missiles inside Russian territory. Lieven cautions that British Prime Minister Burnham's domestic agenda could be destroyed if a stray British missile strikes a Russian civilian target, triggering a direct, retaliatory attack on British soil. (1)Peter Huessy argues that nuclear deterrence remains vital but requires continuous modernization of missiles, submarines, bombers, and command systems to match Russian and Chinese advancements. He explains that conventional defense fails against nuclear attacks in military war games. Huessy advocates for "counterforce" strategies—targeting an enemy's weapons and leadership rather than innocent civilian cities ("countervalue"). He also supports adding theater nuclear systems to deter Russia's "escalate to win" doctrine, which utilizes low-yield battlefield nuclear weapons to force a NATO stand-down. (2)Andrea Stricker discusses the concerning US-Saudi bilateral nuclear agreement, which triggers a 90-day congressional review. This pact opens the door to uranium enrichment on Saudi soil, setting a dangerous precedent that could spark a regional "domino effect." Additionally, Stricker highlights unresolved risks in Syria. Despite a US-brokered deal to turn over natural uranium metal, Syria's al-Qaeda-linked leadership intends to rebuild its civil nuclear program. She urges the US to enforce the complete removal of all nuclear material from Syria rather than giving extremists a pass. (3)Mary Anastasia O'Grady explains how the US is aggressively targeting Cuban regime elites by freezing assets and revoking visas. To facilitate the regime's collapse, O'Grady stresses that the US must present a viable post-collapse plan for "Day Zero" to avoid chaos, bloodshed, or oligarchic asset-grabbing. She advocates for securing property rights to encourage external investments and suggests using multilateral peacekeepers to maintain order. She supports a transitional board of Cuban-Americans and Americans to manage investments and prevent former military elites from seizing privatized state assets. (4)Conrad Black analyzes the impending trade dispute between Canada and the United States, labeled "the dumbest trade war ever." President Trump's comments describing Canada as a "51st state" and calling the Prime Minister "governor" have sparked deep resentment across Canada. Prime Minister Carney has ended negotiations and threatened retaliatory tariffs, securing tentative public support. However, the political opposition is demanding that Carney publish the underlying negotiation documents and recall parliament to build an all-party policy. Black argues this represents a moment of great risk but also a Churchillian opportunity. (5)Jane Rogoyska explores the history of Paris's Hôtel Lutetia, which served as a haven for fleeing Weimar intellectuals before becoming a Nazi military intelligence headquarters in 1940. Rogoyska traces waves of refugees fleeing Nazi persecution, including writers Heinrich Mann and Lion Feuchtwanger. These figures struggled to warn an indifferent Europe about the dangers of fascism. Despite personal tragedies and bureaucratic challenges, literary giants like James Joyce, Samuel Beckett, and Arthur Koestler frequented the hotel, carrying poison just in case they were captured. (6)Evan Ellis details how an unprecedented "super El Niño" is battering the Americas, causing floods in Peru and severe droughts affecting the Panama Canal. He outlines political developments, including Chile's struggle to finance aging copper mining infrastructure despite high global prices. In Venezuela, the "Rodrigato" gang leadership continues to slow-walk democratic reforms while benefiting from US-supervised oil sales. Colombia's new conservative president, de la Espriella, has prioritized security and pro-business reforms. Finally, in Panama, the US is expanding security efforts to counter persistent Chinese commercial and diplomatic encirclement. (7)

In the 1920s and 1930s, Weimar was rife with contradictions, embracing both utopian modernism and Nazism. This German town's interwar story reveals how democratic dreams can die in the face of economic ills and polarising politics, as this Long Read written by Katja Hoyer explains...

What actually is a dollar? Not what you think it should be — what it actually is, right now, in the modern economy. Andy Tanner sits down with Professor J.W. Mason, heterodox economist and author of Against Money, for one of the most thought-provoking conversations in the show's history. They cover how money works as a social technology, why the Fed's "money printing" after 2008 didn't cause inflation — and why the COVID stimulus did, the real story behind Weimar-style hyperinflation, and why understanding what a dollar is might be the most important thing an investor can learn. This isn't an episode about which policy is right. It's about understanding the rules of the game well enough to play it — regardless of who's making the calls. If you're going to buy assets that produce dollars, you'd better know what a dollar actually is.

Doomberg stops by, and we solve the global oil crisis. We did not really solve the world's oil problems, but boy, we sure covered them.In this Energy Newsbeat podcast episode, hosts Stu Turley and Doomberg dive deep into the interconnected crises reshaping global energy markets and geopolitics. From contested claims about oil flowing through the Strait of Hormuz to Putin's stranglehold on European natural gas supplies, the conversation reveals how misinformation, geopolitical brinkmanship, and exponential technological change are colliding to create unprecedented uncertainty.Against this backdrop of energy scarcity and conflict, the hosts explore how artificial intelligence is driving explosive new demand for power, forcing a reckoning between renewable energy mandates and grid reliability. Through sharp analysis and candid debate, they argue that understanding energy flows—and who controls them—is essential to predicting everything from European political upheaval to the viability of AI infrastructure investments. It's a masterclass in connecting the dots between commodity markets, military strategy, and the future of human civilization.Check out Doomberg.com https://newsletter.doomberg.com/Shout-out to Dave, one of our great subscribers, for commenting on the live feed.1. Global Oil Markets & The Strait of HormuzThe hosts debate conflicting information about oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz, with Chris Wright (Secretary of Energy) claiming 9 million barrels per day are flowing through. They discuss how market prices haven't responded as expected, suggesting either the market is efficiently pricing in a long-term U.S. siege against Iran, or there's misinformation in circulation. The conversation emphasizes that pipelines are being built to bypass the strait, making it increasingly irrelevant.2. Houthi Attacks & Alternative Shipping RoutesDiscussion of Houthi attacks on commercial ships in the Bab el-Mandab Strait, reducing flow to less than 1 million barrels per day. They note the phrase "Houthis in the blow ships" and question whether reported attacks are actually occurring or if misinformation is prevalent.3. Ukraine War & European Energy CrisisA major focus is an upcoming Doomberg article about how Putin controls Europe's energy future through natural gas. Key points include:Ukraine's loss of the air war and closing of the Black Sea port of OdessaEurope's dangerous dependency on Russian natural gas (4.5 BCF/day through Turkstream)European gas storage at only 59% capacity (vs. 83% in 2023)If Russia cuts off gas supplies, Europe could lose 40% of its storage capacityThe precarious position of European leadership (Ursula von der Leyen, Macron, Mertz) who may need to be replaced for political solutions4. Turkey's Strategic PositionTurkey's role as a NATO member while maintaining relationships with Russia and Iran, controlling the Turkish Straits, and serving as a potential energy hub between the Middle East and Europe. Discussion of Erdogan's health and political stability.5. U.S. Grid Reliability & Data Center DemandJPMorgan's warnings about rolling blackouts driven by:Accelerating AI demandForced installation of intermittent renewablesData centers requiring massive powerComparison between Texas (abundant natural gas, allowing data center growth) and New York (restrictive policies)The concept of "natural gas pods"—data centers with gas input and data output6. AI & Exponential GrowthA philosophical discussion on:Ray Kurzweil's "The Singularity is Near" and exponential technological growthAI model doubling time shrinking to approximately 3 months (trending toward daily improvements)The "human endeavor is infinite compute" as a strong predictive mental modelComparison to the Weimar hyperinflation period to illustrate the power of exponential trendsWhy skepticism about AI data center ROI is misplaced, similar to early shale gas skepticism7. Liberty Energy & Shale Gas in AustraliaBrief mention of Liberty Energy's expansion into Australian shale gas drilling, presented as a "tell" of emerging opportunities.8. Upcoming Doomberg ContentAnnouncement of a company deep dive on Chevron, examining its global operations, business model, and various investment exposure options.The podcast emphasizes how interconnected global energy markets are and how geopolitical decisions (particularly Putin's control of energy supplies) have cascading effects on everything from European stability to U.S. grid reliability and AI infrastructure development.The podcast has rolled over 3 million podcast listens on Apple and Spotify, and Doomberg's last episode was well over 110K - let's see how this one does.

This Day in Legal History: The Weimar ConstitutionOn August 11, 1919, President Friedrich Ebert signed the Weimar Constitution into force, creating the first parliamentary democracy in German history. It came into effect a few days later, ending the provisional government that had followed Germany's defeat in the First World War and the fall of the monarchy. On paper, it was a strikingly modern and liberal document—and its story is one of the most important cautionary tales in all of constitutional law.The Weimar Constitution rested on genuinely progressive foundations: popular sovereignty, a separation of powers, and an extensive bill of fundamental rights, including—remarkably for 1919—formal equality between men and women and the right to vote for both. It established a directly elected president, a parliament, the Reichstag, and a framework that looked, in many respects, like a model twentieth-century democracy. For a document drafted in the chaos of postwar Germany, it was an ambitious attempt to build a rights-respecting republic from the ground up.But the Weimar Constitution is remembered today largely for the flaw that helped destroy it: Article 48, which gave the president sweeping power to rule by emergency decree, suspending civil liberties when he deemed public order to be threatened. That emergency clause was invoked more and more frequently as the republic's politics fractured—and in 1933 it became the legal mechanism through which the Nazi regime dismantled democracy from the inside, using the constitution's own emergency powers to suspend rights and seize dictatorial control. Which brings us back to today's opening quote: the Weimar experience is the definitive real-world example of Justice Jackson's warning that an emergency power, once available, “lies about like a loaded weapon, ready for the hand of any authority that can bring forward a plausible claim of an urgent need.” The significance of August 11, 1919 is that it stands as an enduring lesson that a constitution's protections are only as durable as the limits it places on emergency power—that a democracy can be subverted not in spite of its own laws, but through them.Luigi Mangione is due back in court for a pretrial hearing ahead of his murder trial, set to begin September 8, in the December 2024 killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a Manhattan hotel. Mangione, who is 28, has pleaded not guilty to murder, weapons, and forgery charges brought by the Manhattan District Attorney, and he has separately pleaded not guilty to federal stalking charges. At today's hearing before Justice Gregory Carro, the parties are expected to take up jury selection and the thorny question of public access to what is shaping up to be one of the most closely watched trials in years. Let's talk about the real legal challenges here, because this case is unusual on several fronts. First, Mangione faces parallel state and federal prosecutions arising from the same killing—something the Constitution permits under the “dual sovereignty” doctrine, even though it can feel like being tried twice. Second, the defense has signaled it may argue that Mangione lost control of his actions due to an extreme mental-health breakdown, and notably has not conceded that he was even the shooter, despite prosecutors citing surveillance video, DNA, ballistics, and a notebook. And third—the elephant in the courtroom—is that this case became a cultural flashpoint, with a wave of public anger at the health-insurance industry curdling, in some corners, into sympathy for the accused. That makes jury selection genuinely difficult: finding impartial jurors amid saturation coverage and strong public feeling is exactly the kind of problem that tests the machinery of a fair trial. The significance is that beyond the headlines, this is a serious test of whether the system can give a fair, dispassionate trial to a defendant the public has turned into a symbol—which is precisely when the guarantees of criminal procedure matter most. Luigi Mangione due in court ahead of insurance CEO murder trial | ReutersUPI · 6abcPresident Trump has said that whether to revive the $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization fund” is now up to his newly confirmed attorney general, Todd Blanche—a statement that lands like the punchline to a story we've been telling for weeks. Recall the sequence: Blanche rescinded the fund on the eve of his confirmation to win over Republican holdouts, but Trump then acknowledged that he himself never signed the rescission order, which left the door open. Now, with Blanche confirmed as attorney general by that razor-thin 50-49 vote, Trump is saying the future of the fund rests with Blanche. And that is exactly the scenario that critics warned about. Think back to what senators extracted as the price of confirmation: a promise to kill a fund that would have used taxpayer money to pay people, including January 6 defendants, who claimed to be victims of the prior Justice Department. But a promise made by the executive branch can be unmade by the executive branch, and here the president is openly signaling that his former personal lawyer, now running the Justice Department, could bring it back. The significance goes to the very heart of the concern that dogged Blanche's nomination: the independence of the attorney general. When the president publicly frames the revival of a controversial payout fund as a decision for “his” attorney general to make, it underscores the worry that the Justice Department's most consequential choices may run through the lens of the president's personal and political interests. The confirmation fight is over, but the question it raised is very much alive. Trump says future weaponization fund is up to Blanche | ReutersForbes · AxiosA federal appeals court has cleared thousands of lawsuits to proceed against the major social-media companies over claims they deliberately designed their platforms to addict young users. The San Francisco-based Ninth Circuit rejected the bid by Meta, Google's YouTube, TikTok, and Snapchat to escape roughly 2,400 lawsuits consolidated in federal court, brought by states, municipalities, school districts, and individuals. The legal fight here is all about Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act—the 1996 law that shields online platforms from liability for content their users post. The companies argued that Section 230 also immunizes them from claims that they failed to warn about, or engineered, the addictive nature of their platforms. The court said no, and the distinction it drew is the crucial one: Section 230 protects a platform from being sued over what its users say, but it does not necessarily protect the platform's own product-design choices—the infinite scroll, the algorithmic feeds, the notification schedules engineered to maximize engagement. Claims aimed at that design, the court reasoned, are different from claims aimed at user content. If you've been listening, you know this is the federal counterpart to everything we've tracked at the state level—the New Mexico judgment, the Tennessee trial, the multistate penalty fight. The significance is that the industry's most powerful legal shield, Section 230, is being narrowed: plaintiffs are increasingly framing their cases around addictive design rather than harmful content, and courts are increasingly letting those cases through. That reframing may prove to be the key that unlocks the courthouse door for the whole wave of social-media harm litigation. US appeals court allows thousands of lawsuits against social media companies to proceed | ReutersNBC News · Al JazeeraAnd finally, in my column for Bloomberg Tax this week, I dig into a question hiding underneath the AI gold rush: who's actually paying for it? My starting point is a striking data point—Microsoft's current federal tax expense fell year over year from about $14.1 billion to just $2.5 billion, even as its revenue surged. And a big part of that drop comes from accelerated deductions in last year's massive 2025 tax law, which restored 100% bonus depreciation—letting companies write off the full cost of huge investments, like AI data centers, in the very first year.My core argument is that the tax law is financing the AI infrastructure boom, but it isn't creating it—and that distinction matters enormously before anyone declares the policy a success. The political narrative writes itself: capital spending soared after the tax cut, therefore the tax cut worked. But I think correlation is doing an awful lot of heavy lifting there. Microsoft and its rivals aren't pouring tens of billions into AI infrastructure because Congress rediscovered depreciation. They're doing it because falling behind in AI could threaten their core businesses—it's become about as close to a strategic necessity as it gets. And here's the tell: Microsoft announced its roughly $80 billion AI data-center plan in a blog post in January 2025, a full six months before the tax law was even signed. The trajectory was public, budgeted, and well underway before the depreciation rules changed.So my point to Congress is: prove it. Before congratulating yourselves, you owe the public evidence that these tax benefits actually changed corporate behavior rather than just rewarding investments companies were already racing to make. And I want to push back on the idea that this is “just” a timing benefit and therefore basically free. Timing isn't free—letting a company keep its cash now in exchange for tax revenue later is like giving it an interest-free loan, and every dollar of accelerated depreciation is a dollar the Treasury can't use for something else this year. That's a real opportunity cost, felt in deficits or forgone public investment. My recommendation is concrete: Congress should require the Treasury and the Joint Committee on Taxation to regularly estimate how much of this investment is genuinely induced by the tax break, how much was simply pulled forward, and how much would have happened anyway. Because the public is quietly helping finance the AI revolution—and if Congress intends to make taxpayers silent investors in it, it should at least have the honesty to say so, and to show the math.

Cabaret, la célèbre comédie musicale, fête cet automne ses 60 ans. Depuis plus de vingt ans, ce spectacle basé sur le livre de l'écrivain Christopher Isherwood se joue tous les étés à Berlin, là même où se déroule l'histoire, au début des années 1930 dans un Berlin hédoniste, mais où déjà les nazis gagnent du terrain. Un spectacle qui, près d'un siècle plus tard, conserve son actualité à l'heure où l'extrême droite bat des records en Allemagne. De notre correspondant à Berlin, « Willkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome » : c'est par un hymne à la capitale allemande que commence la célèbre comédie musicale Cabaret. Le KitKatClub symbolise le Berlin hédoniste des années 1920, une ville tolérante où l'émancipation est à l'affiche et où l'avant-garde culturelle fleurit. L'écrivain Christopher Isherwood, qui s'y installe en 1929, quitte sa prude Angleterre pour les « boys » dans une ville qui compte 170 lieux de rencontre homosexuels.   « Nous y sommes. Nollendorfstrasse 17, c'est là que se joue Cabaret, c'est là où Isherwood a habité », indique l'Irlandais Brendan Nash, qui propose depuis une quinzaine d'années une visite guidée consacrée à l'écrivain. « C'est fascinant et cette époque reste actuelle. Les Allemands ont l'impression que Weimar a été un échec et pensent à l'hyperinflation, à la crise économique et à la catastrophe qui suit avec les nazis. Mais ces 14 années sont aussi une période exceptionnelle », affirme celui qui a écrit lui-même trois livres sur la période. Une fascination que partage ce participant de la visite guidée : « C'est une période d'optimisme marquée par des idées progressistes, même si nous savons que ça s'est terminé par une tragédie. C'est fascinant pour moi. » Christopher Isherwood livre en 1939 dans son livre Adieu à Berlin un panorama de cette « danse sur un volcan » à la fin de la République de Weimar que symbolise la chanteuse de cabaret Sally Bowles. Une République à l'agonie marquée par une crise économique et sociale et la montée du nazisme. Depuis plus de vingt ans, Cabaret est joué chaque été à Berlin sous un chapiteau en face de la chancellerie. « Le spectacle se déroule à Berlin durant une des périodes les plus marquantes de notre histoire. Les touristes veulent voir les traces du mur mais aussi en savoir plus sur le Troisième Reich et viennent voir Cabaret, une pièce intimement liée à Berlin et à l'Histoire allemande », explique Eric Schmidt-Mohan, qui dirige le Tipi am Kanzleramt. À écouter dans La marche du mondeHitler et les nazis : comment la haine est arrivée au pouvoir ? « Cabaret est plus actuel que jamais » « La vie est un cabaret » : Sally Bowles préfère rester faire carrière à Berlin.

La logeuse Mademoiselle Schneider renonce à se marier à son locataire juif Herr Schultz. Le nazi Ernst Ludwig lui a fait comprendre que ça n'était pas une bonne idée. « Qu'est-ce que j'aurais fait ? Est-ce que j'aurais été courageux ? A posteriori, on peut se demander si cela aurait été une bonne idée de résister. Nous voulons poser ces questions au public », questionne Thimo Pommerening, responsable de la production au Tipi.

Frankie Val warns you up front: no feel good material tonight. This is a demons and schizophrenia special. Returning guests Jerry Marzinski and Judy Gregerson, a former schizophrenic turned deliverance practitioner, share fresh cases, including a woman visited by talking orbs, and press the show's recurring theory that not every inner voice is your own. Frankie runs live audience polls (most say yes, they have heard a thought that did not feel like theirs) and plays clips from an Instagram creator narrating his own hallucinations in real time. Before the guests, expect a detour through Reddit covens trying to hex Trump, MAGA mages casting counter spells, and a raffle featuring a hyperinflated 1923 Weimar papermark to commemorate the coming $40 trillion debt. The back half turns practical and grim: police in Wisconsin using Flock cameras to track a man across state lines and build a pretext search, plus the rising public resistance to the sprawling Flock network and the specter of fabricated, synthetic crime.

En el verano de 1934, el destino de Alemania se selló con sangre. Adolf Hitler, ya nombrado canciller, se enfrentaba a una encrucijada interna que amenazaba su control absoluto: el poder desmedido y las ambiciones revolucionarias de Ernst Röhm y sus millones de camisas pardas de las SA. La solución de la cúpula nazi no fue política, sino criminal. Entre el 30 de junio y el 2 de julio de 1934, la operación Colibrí —conocida históricamente como la Noche de los Cuchillos Largos— descabezó a las SA y eliminó de paso a viejos rivales políticos de la República de Weimar, como Kurt von Schleicher o Gregor Strasser. Con esta purga sangrienta, el régimen no solo neutralizó la disidencia, sino que selló un pacto de sangre con el ejército regular (la Reichswehr) y entregó el control del terror a las SS de Himmler. En este episodio de Antena Historia, analizamos los antecedentes, las tensiones de poder dentro del NSDAP y las consecuencias geopolíticas y sociales de un fin de semana que transformó el Estado de derecho alemán en una dictadura totalitaria perfecta. Un ensayo sonoro sobre cómo el terror institucionalizado se convirtió en la principal herramienta de consolidación del Tercer Reich.

Entre el 30 de junio y el 2 de julio de 1934, la operación Colibrí —conocida históricamente como la Noche de los Cuchillos Largos— descabezó a las SA y eliminó de paso a viejos rivales políticos de la República de Weimar, como Kurt von Schleicher o Gregor Strasser. Con esta purga sangrienta, el régimen no solo neutralizó la disidencia, sino que selló un pacto de sangre con el ejército regular (la Reichswehr) y entregó el control del terror a las SS de Himmler. En este episodio de Antena Historia, analizamos los antecedentes, las tensiones de poder dentro del NSDAP y las consecuencias geopolíticas y sociales de un fin de semana que transformó el Estado de derecho alemán en una dictadura totalitaria perfecta. Un ensayo sonoro sobre cómo el terror institucionalizado se convirtió en la principal herramienta de consolidación del Tercer Reich.

Für die neue Folge unseres Podcasts sind wir verabredet mit Tobias Dahl und Patrick Martin. Im Leipziger Waldstraßenviertel führen die beiden, deren Zusammenarbeit in den Nullerjahren über das gemeinsame Studium in Weimar begann und eng mit der Geschichte von M Books verknüpft ist, das Büro Happy Little Accidents, kurz HLA. 2019 erhielten sie für ihr im Kettler Verlag zu einer Ausstellung des NRW Forums erschienenes Buch „Im Zweifel für den Zweifel - Die große Weltverschwörung“ den Förderpreis für junge Buchgestaltung der Stiftung Buchkunst. Zuletzt hatten die beiden einen regelrechten Lauf: Zwei Mal hintereinander gestalteten die Wahl-Leipziger eines der „Schönsten deutschen Bücher“: Im Wettbewerb der Stiftung Buchkunst wurden sie 2024 für das bei Park Books erschienene Architekturbuch „Ontologie der Konstruktion“ ausgezeichnet, 2025 waren sie mit „Constructive Disobedience“, publiziert bei Birkhäuser, unter den schönsten 25. Im Podcast sprechen wir mit Tobias und Patrick über Wege vom Studium in den Job, über das Suchen und Finden von bezahlbaren Büroräumen und Qualitäts-Maßstäben, über das Gestalten von Büchern, Magazinen, ganzen Ausstellungen oder Platten-Artworks und die manchmal lähmenden Mahlwerke öffentlicher Wettbewerbe und Ausschreibungen. Und schließlich übers kreative Pingpong zweier herausragender Gestalter, das – Grüße gehen raus an Bob Ross! - alles andere als ein Unfall ist. Dank wie immer an Carolin Blöink (Layout, Audioeinbindung), Steffen Brosig (Schnitt) und Gert Mothes (Fotos): Ohne euch gäbe es das hier nicht! https://happy-little-accidents.de

Yascha Mounk and Katja Hoyer also discuss what the Islamist attack on Berlin's Pride parade says about the state of Germany. Katja Hoyer is a visiting Research Fellow at King's College London and a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society. Her latest book is Weimar: Life on the Edge of Catastrophe. In this week's conversation, Yascha Mounk and Katja Hoyer discuss why the Weimar comparison is so tempting (and so often misleading), what genuine enthusiasm for democracy in 1919 Germany can teach us about how democracies fail, and whether political fragmentation or economic crisis was the more decisive factor in Weimar's collapse.

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageA signature can look like safety, right up until the day it becomes worthless ink. We take you back to 1933 Germany to watch a deal get made with Adolf Hitler and then dismantled piece by piece, revealing why legal guarantees cannot protect anyone when an authoritarian regime treats law as theater.We set the context most people miss: German Catholics had lived through decades of hostility stretching back to Bismarck's Kulturkampf, and the chaos of Weimar Germany made the desire for a binding national promise feel urgent. When Hitler needs the Center Party's votes to lock in power, he offers a trade that sounds “practical” on paper: the Reichskonkordat will protect Catholic schools, parishes, and legal standing, and in return the Church steps out of politics. Then the reality hits. Youth groups disappear, priests are surveilled, and the regime's attacks on human dignity keep escalating.From there, we draw a clear modern parallel to the Vatican's agreement with the Chinese Communist government over bishop appointments, renewed through 2028, and Cardinal Joseph Zen's public warnings about the underground Church being left behind. The question underneath both stories is the same: what actually protects the vulnerable when the people in power do not believe truth is real?We end with the turning point in 1937, when Pope Pius XI releases Mit Brennender Sorge, smuggled into Germany and read from pulpits under the Gestapo's nose, calling Catholics to spiritual resistance and naming the poison even when politics refuses to. If you care about religious freedom, church-state relations, and the limits of diplomacy under authoritarianism, this one will stay with you. Key Points from the Episode:• German Catholics shaped by decades of harassment under Kulturkampf  • Weimar instability fueling a desire for national legal guarantees  • Hitler trading “protection” for the Church's silence in politics  • The Reichskonkordat's promises contrasted with immediate Nazi violations  • Why agreements fail when leaders reject truth and justice  • Parallels to the Vatican's China agreement and Cardinal Joseph Zen's warnings  • Mit Brennender Sorge as a shift from diplomacy to defiance  • The covert distribution effort and the risk taken by clergy and laity  • The persecution that followed, including imprisonment and deaths at Dachau  Be sure to check out our show page at TeamMojoAcademy.com, where we have everything we discussed in this podcast as well as other great resources.  Links

The work of Rod Dreher has a consistent theme: doom. He believes the collapse of Christianity has ushered civilizational decline in Europe, that we've traded our humanity for comfort, and he worries that totalitarianism is around the corner for the United States. “I'm worried about Weimar America,” he tells me. “It may not be Hitler 2.0, it may not be Stalin 2.0. It might be something all American, but it's not going to be what we're used to.” It's best not to dismiss him; he's been right before. We discuss how we got here and the dangers that still lie ahead when we grant godlike powers to our technology. 0:00 - Intro 1:41 - The role of Christianity in Western society 12:26 - Free speech in Western Europe 17:40 - Immigration and de-Christianization 23:55 - Viktor Orbán's Hungary 34:50 - "Weimar America" and the coming crisis 46:45 - Dreher's personal journey 55:12 - Dark re-enchantment and A.I. as a "vector for the demonic" (A full transcript of this episode is available on the Times website.)

Laura Ragone"Quattro volte me"Maria LazarEdizioni Adelphiwww.adelphi.itTraduzione di Laura RagoneA cura di Albert C. EiblLe piccole donne di Maria Lazar sono Grete, Anette, Ulla e l'anonima narratrice che parla in queste pagine. La sua confessione, concitata e rapinosa, suscita in noi un crescente turbamento, perché la sua voce si mimetizza con le altre, a scuola le capita di dimenticare il suo nome, di rispondere all'insegnante con la voce di Grete, di scrivere un tema con la grafia di Ulla, di patire nella carne il dolore delle amiche. Una presenza, che lei chiama «l'Estranea», la spia dagli specchi e dalle finestre, e si fa via via sempre più ardita e invadente. Ma è proprio questa natura frantumata e plurima a fare di lei la cronista di una storia collettiva. La storia di Grete, che sembra sedere «in una nube tiepida e fragrante»; di Ulla, «occhi d'acqua ghiacciata», atletica e sagace; della frivola e svagata Anette, dalle «lunghe gambe a pertica» – e di tante altre. Di tutte le giovani donne travolte dall'ansia e dallo spaesamento che spirano come un vento malevolo nell'aria di Weimar. Donne inassimilabili l'una all'altra, eppure accomunate da un unico destino: sopravvivere alla miseria, alle violenze maschili, alla degradazione – o consegnarsi alla desolante sicurezza del matrimonio. Sepolto in uno scatolone per cento anni, in attesa di essere scoperto, Quattro volte me di Maria Lazar riemerge in un'epoca che pensava di aver detto tutto sulla «situazione delle donne». E forse non era vero.Maria Lazar (Vienna, 22 novembre 1895 – Stoccolma, 30 marzo 1948) fu una scrittrice, giornalista, traduttrice e drammaturga austriaca. Nata in una famiglia ebrea benestante di Vienna, frequentò la scuola fondata da Eugenie Schwarzwald, importante centro della vita culturale viennese. Negli anni Venti iniziò a collaborare con giornali austriaci, svizzeri e scandinavi e si affermò come autrice di romanzi e opere teatrali.Nel 1930 ottenne un notevole successo letterario, anche grazie allo pseudonimo Esther Grenen. Con l'ascesa del nazismo fu costretta all'esilio: nel 1933 si trasferì prima in Danimarca e poi, nel 1939, in Svezia. Le sue opere, spesso caratterizzate da forte sensibilità sociale e da una lucida critica dei totalitarismi, caddero nell'oblio dopo la sua morte.Tra i suoi lavori più noti figurano Die Vergiftung (L'avvelenamento, 1920), Leben verboten! (Vita proibita!, 1932) e Die Eingeborenen von Maria Blut (1937). Negli ultimi anni la sua produzione letteraria è stata riscoperta e rivalutata dalla critica come una delle voci più originali della letteratura austriaca del Novecento.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Isaac Butler's phenomenal new book, “The Perfect Moment: God, Sex, Art, and the Birth of America's Culture Wars,” is a detailed examination of the intersection of art and politics in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s — just like Bob Fosse's 1972 film adaptation of the Weimar-set Broadway smash.

In this episode with Katja Hoyer I learned how Weimar's choice as the new republic's capital wasn't random; it was strategic. Small, cultural, and safe from political upheaval, it symbolized a fresh start. But beneath that veneer, extremism was already brewing — Nazis testing their power, violence simmering just beneath the surface. The town's evolution shows how politics and culture collide, and how ordinary people's lives are impacted during times of chaos — from factory workers to hotel owners. When history feels distant, these stories remind us how much is at stake in every decision.

Legendary pioneering film director, original bad boy auteur, visionary…bit of a dick. Fritz Lang's personal life was almost as dramatic as his films. He's in Paris for the febrile pre-war days of 1914, showing real acts of bravery on the Galician front. Driving to work at the UFA studios on the days of the Spartacist Uprisings and conveniently dodging Goebbels in 1933.Not the most reliable narrator, particularly when it comes to his first wife and his departure from Berlin in 1933, but if there were ever a man of his time, it's Fritz Lang. His work would span the turbulent era from silent to sound, and later from Europe to the US. Obsessive and dictatorial on set, he directed some of the most recognisable films of the Weimar era, Metropolis and M.++++++  

The majority of the societal weakening an cultural poisons are now done away from the streets and clubs. The tech age has allowed for more discretion, and less noticeable moral decay is happening right at people's homes, at their desks, on their tablets, PCs, laptops, and phones. It's a new age of perversion that can creep right into your home and obsess or corrupt your family members. They needn't sneak out or ever run away to become essentially prostitutes. They can do it in their bedrooms, and even order elicit, life destroying addictive substances from the internet while making the "easy money." It's an epidemic and along with it, weak males, simps, gooners, and degenerate social misfits with arrested development are on the rise. The probability is low that these porn addicted young males will ever function in real life. The convenience of the internet, the opportunities it provides, the money that can be made for the price of your dignity and self-respect are extremely powerful temptations for many young women. The promise isn't always equal to the actual payout. And the reputation damage, the scarlet letter they forever after carry, cannot be erased or bought out of existence. The evidence remains, and no one will ever look at you without thinking about what you do or did for pay.One way to ensure your favorite indy channels remain is to Follow, Subscribe, and leave likes and comments.

Katja Hoyer is a German-British historian who has made a career out of explaining Germany to the world—and, just as importantly, to Germans themselves. Born in East Germany in 1985 and now based in Britain, she has written acclaimed histories of the German Empire, the GDR, and most recently the Weimar Republic. Tyler and Katja discuss why communism made East Germans more loyal to the system while it bred dissidents in Poland and Hungary, how happy or unhappy life in the GDR actually was, Tyler's own bleak day-trip to East Berlin in 1984, the underrated literature of the GDR (Christa Wolf, Brigitte Reimann), whether Good Bye, Lenin! got the era right, why it's no coincidence that Richter and Polke came from the East, the strange coexistence of communist prudishness and Germany's nudist culture, what Merkel's East German background did and didn't give her as a chancellor, why East Germans remain dramatically underrepresented in leadership positions today, what makes Weimar the cultural and spiritual heart of Germany, why relatively few Jews ever settled there, how much the citizens of Weimar knew about Buchenwald, what actually killed the Weimar Constitution, how she'd rewrite the Treaty of Versailles, Hitler's citizenship problem, underrated German thinkers, the complacency behind Germany's current economic decline, which side of the Weißwurstäquator she'd choose to live on, and much more.

This week on Truth to Power, we bring you a conversation about "Interwar Germany and the U.S. Today: Are They Comparable Cases of the Failure of Democracy and the Rise of Dictatorship?" This virtual community conversation with Christopher R. Browning, Professor Emeritus of History at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, took place on February 24, 2026, and was organized by the Oberlin Club of Washington, D.C. Given the propensity to invoke Hitler, Nazism, and fascism in current political discussion, historians of Europe in the era of fascist dictatorship, World War II, and the Holocaust should set a high bar for responsible and informed analogizing, against which facile and distorted attempts can be measured and found wanting. This talk will attempt a careful comparison and contrast between Hitler and Trump as personalities and politicians, as well as between the fall of Weimar and rise of Nazi dictatorship on the one hand and current events and trends in the U.S. on the other. Professor Browning will do so operating from the premise that insights based upon knowledge of the past are very important for illuminating and understanding our current situation, but the careless weaponizing of the past simply to stigmatize one's opponents is self-defeating. Christopher R. Browning is the Frank Porter Graham Professor History Emeritus at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill where he taught from 1999-2014. He is a specialist on the Holocaust and renowned for work documenting the Final Solution, the behavior of those implementing Nazi policies, and the use of survivor testimony. Earlier, he taught at Pacific Lutheran University from 1974-1999. Christopher is the author of nine books, including three–Ordinary Men (1992), The Origins of the Final Solution (2004), and Remembering Survival (2010)—which received the National Jewish Book Award in the Holocaust Category. He has served as historical expert witness at two Holocaust denial trials: Ernst Zündel v. Crown Prosecution in Toronto in 1988, and David Irving v. Deborah Lipstadt and Penguin Press in London in 2000. Christopher was a History major at Oberlin and was awarded an Honorary Doctorate in 2014. He earned his PhD in History from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He currently resides in the Pacific Northwest with his wife Jenni Horn Browning '67.

Weimar Was a Real Place Before It Became a Political WarningThe “Weimar Republic” has become shorthand for collapse, extremism, and economic chaos — but as historian and author Katja Hoyer argues in this episode of History Rage, Weimar was first and foremost a real town with a rich cultural history stretching back centuries. Home to Goethe, Schiller, Liszt and Nietzsche, Weimar was long considered the spiritual and intellectual heart of Germany before it ever became associated with democratic failure. In this fascinating conversation, Katja dismantles the clichés surrounding interwar Germany by exploring how ordinary people experienced extraordinary political change. Through the lives of Weimar residents — bookbinders, teachers, social democrats and shopkeepers — she reveals how hope, apathy, fear and economic despair gradually transformed a fragile democracy into a dictatorship. From the optimism surrounding Germany's first truly democratic elections in 1919 to the devastation of hyperinflation, the Great Depression, and the rise of Nazism, this episode explores how extremism becomes acceptable when people feel abandoned by politics. Katja explains why the Nazis initially remained a fringe movement, how the economic crash of 1929 changed everything, and why so many ordinary Germans convinced themselves to look away from the horrors developing around them. The discussion also examines Weimar's proximity to Buchenwald concentration camp and the uncomfortable realities of what civilians knew — or chose not to know — as Nazi brutality escalated. This is a powerful exploration of how democratic societies fracture, and why understanding the everyday experience of historical change matters now more than ever. Katja's new book, Weimar: Life on the Edge of Catastrophe, is available here: https://uk.bookshop.org/a/10120/9780241681244You can also hear Katja on her podcast Reichs and Republics, and follow her work here: Substack: https://www.katjahoyer.uk/X/Twitter: https://x.com/hoyer_kat

• It's Podmasters' 10th birthday! Get an extra 10% off a year's Patreon backing. The German town of Weimar exudes a dark fascination, and not just because Hitler loved to visit it. How did Germany's cultural capital – home of the Bauhaus, Goethe, Schiller and the doomed inter-war experiment with democracy – also become one of Nazism's earliest strongholds and the location for the Buchenwald concentration camp? Why did the Weimar Republic fall?

What can an art exhibition, a concert hall and Classical town tell us about twentieth century German history? On Radio 4's weekly discussion programme, setting the cultural agenda every Monday, Samira Ahmed leads a conversation exploring what inter-war Weimar, the Nazi's obsession with so-called 'degenerate art' and the programming of German music at the Wigmore Hall in London reveal about the course of German history and our responses to it. Katja Hoyer's last book, Beyond the Wall was a history of East Germany which concentrated on the consequences the Nazi rule and the Second World War. Now the Anglo-German Historian has turned her attention to Weimar, the town that gave its name to the ambitious republic whose failure paved the way to Nazism. Looking at the stories of a series of varied individuals, she asks how a nation that prided itself on its culture and civility enabled Nazism and why it haunts us to this day because we fear a repeat. Weimar: Life on the Edge of Catastrophe is BBC Radio 4's Book of the Week for a fortnight.Art historian John-Paul Stonard's new book is The Worst Exhibition in the World: Degenerate Art, 1937. The exhibition of Entartete Kunst ('degenerate art') was held in the Hofgarten arcade in Munich in the summer of 1937. Just a few weeks earlier, the same paintings and sculptures by modern German artists had been on display in some of the most prestigious museums in Germany. An extensive propaganda campaign of confiscation and defamation by the Nazis saw the condemnation of works by Jews, Bolsheviks and the enemies of the German Reich. It remains one of the most visited exhibitions ever - and it shaped views of modern art well into the second half of the twentieth century.Julia Boyd's There is Sweet Music Here: The World of Wigmore Hall tells the story of London's privately run music venue. During the Second World War it was possible for audiences to hear exiled German and Austrian Jewish musicians playing Beethoven among a wide range of recitals. Other concerts programmed included Entartete Musik (forbidden or so-called 'degenerate Music'), including the banned composer Gustav Mahler. Producer: Ruth Watts

Tonight with Jake Shields for a hard-hitting exposé on how a pedophile-protecting foreign nation has hijacked our government and turned America into Weimar 2.0. From Epstein's files and elite blackmail to Trump's betrayal and the suspicious questions around Charlie Kirk's death, we pull no punches. They're calling us demons for speaking the truth, but I won't stop — just like Candace Owens exposing Charlie Kirk's widow. This girl is no grieving widow, she's a sociopath twerking with rappers, scrubbing her past, and acting insane while the corrupt machine shoves her in our faces and silences us. Jake Shields joins me to expose how the Jewish banking cabal seized America in 1913 with the Federal Reserve, ADL, and debt slavery system now controlling Trump and Israel-first politicians. This is a battle for America's soul — support Dan Bilzerian against traitor Randy Fine before these parasites destroy our nation.

The town of Weimar looms large in German history. This ancient town nestled in the heart of the country was home to some of Europe's greatest thinkers, Goethe and Schiller, Liszt and Nietzsche among them. It gave its name to the ambitious Weimar Republic crafted in the aftermath of the First World War. But it was also where fascism took hold. Where Bauhaus architects first experimented with new ways of living, Buchenwald was dug out of a beech forest. German-British historian Katya Hoyer has drawn on a wealth of new archival research to tell the story of Weimar through the lives of some of its citizens from the years 1919-1939.  In this episode, she talks to historian Sophie Scott-Brown about some of these vividly drawn characters who, as the events of history swept them up, became witnesses, perpetrators, victims and bystanders. How did Germany, within a few years, turn from one of the most liberal democracies in the world to a genocidal dictatorship? What choices did individual Germans make that enabled this? And what lessons can we learn to avoid repeating their mistakes?  Katja Hoyer is Visiting Research Fellow at King's College London and a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society. She is the author of Weimar: Life on the Edge of Catastrophe.
