In this episode, we make our first foray into outer space as we cover the Apollo 11 Moon Landing, what led to it, and how there are now people who doubt that we ever made the trip.  We discuss the astronauts on the flight, their histories and how they combined to make the Moon Landing the success that it was.  In his corner, Arthur discusses Aardwolves and a whole host of colorful fancy people get discussed on this week's episode of the Family Plot Podcast!  You should listen, it's outta this world!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.

A season finale is upon us. A lot remains to be said about Lysenko, epigenetics and that original cliffhanger regarding Darwins repressed theory of pangenesis. Not all has been said about Kruschev and the nuclear-bomb-corn of American Big Ag during the creation of the first truly global market of grain speculation, all has not been said about x-ray Mullers letter to Stalin that kickstarted the purge of the natural sciences or how Huxley got him into the soviet union and how they helped exiling Serebrovsky's deserter students to take part in radiation sterilisation experiments in Nazi Germany. Not much has been said about Lysenko's teachers themselves, Michurin and Timiryazev who, though already seniors when the winter palace was stormed, nonetheless gladly supported the communist reorganisation of their scientific fields.  We have yet to explore the great around-the-world adventures of Vavilov which debunked the biblical idea of a single origin of civilization, have not yet in detail told the story of Himmler's SS-biopiracy operations. During which it was not Vavilovs international Rockefeller “colleague” who defended his seed banks in Leningrad, but Lysenkoites who starved to death on their post to protect the work and legacy of a man whom western historians are telling us they saw as an enemy to be eradicated. There is a lot left to be talked about dear listener, but to really get there, we will begin today with something which our Marxist-Botanist Allan G. Morton has stated was and is “In fact, after all, the central problem of genetics, the explanation of Ontogeny.” This is a story of genetic fluidity and shaken heredity, the material dialectic critique of DNA-essentialism. 

Ukrainian Nationalism and Third Worldism in the Cold WarThis week we read and discussed Congo on the Dnipro: Third Worldism and the Nationalization of Soviet Internationalism in Ukraine by Thom Lloyd. The author discusses attempts by Ukrainian nationalists to appropriate the language of third world liberation struggles, but with a twist (spoiler alert, its a racist one).Loyd, Thom.

What did Dmitri Shostakovich intend to portray in his music? There is probably no more debated a question in all of 20th century Western Classica lMusic than this one. On the surface, it seems to have an easy answer. Shostakovich portrayed his own thoughts and feelings in his music, just as any other composer would. And that is certainly true. Shostakovich, above anything else, was truly one of the great composers in history. HIs mastery of form, meldoy, strcuture, pacing, and his ability to find a near universal expression of grief and passion is practically unparalelled among composers. That much is clear to those of us who love Shostakovich's music. But everything else, including that thorny question of what his music MEANS, is much, much, much less clear. Practically Shostakovich's entire life was lived under the shadow of Soviet Russia, and naturally his musical career was lived under that shadow as well. This means that a sometimes impenetrable layer of secrecy, mystery, and doubt always lies under the surface of Shostakovich's music. In 1960, Kruschev, who had been loudly trumpetting Shostakovich's name to Western Press as an example of a free Soviet artist post the excesses of the Stalin regime, decided that Shostakovich should be the new head of the Russian Union of Composers. The catch was that Shostakovich would need to join the Communist Party in order to take the job. Shostakovich, who had long resisted becoming a full Party member, agreed. Shostakovich was clearly disappointed in himself, as his friend Lev Lebedinsky wrote this: “I will never forget some of the things he said that night [before his induction into the Party], sobbing hysterically: ‘I'm scared to death of them.'  Why does all this matter? Because just a few days after joining the Commhnist party and after meeting with his friends Isaac Glikman and Lev Lebedinsky, Shostakovich traveled to East Germany --  specifically to Dresden — to work on a film which would commemorate the destruction of the city during World War II. He was supposed to write music for this film, but instead, Shostakovich sat down, and in THREE DAYS, he wrote his 8th string quartet. He would later write to Glikman: “However much I've tried to draft my obligations for the film, I just couldn't do it. Instead I wrote an ideologically deficient quartet that nobody needs. I reflected that if I die it's not likely anyone will write a quartet dedicated to my memory. So I decided to write it myself. You could even write on the cover: ‘Dedicated to the memory of the composer of this quartet.” Today on the show we're going to explore this remarkable piece together - join us!

Rerun. Soviet naval officer Vasili Arkhipov may not have the name recognition of Castro, Kruschev and Kennedy - but his actions during the Cuban Missile Crisis on 27th October, 1962 almost certainly prevented World War Three from erupting.  On-board a sweltering Russian submarine, he talked Captain valentyn Savitsky down from firing a nuclear torpedo at the United States Navy, whom, Savitsky falsely believed, were attacking his boat.  In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly speculate about what Arkhipov said to Savitsky to stop him from firing his ‘special weapon'; explain why his heroic story stayed untold until the ‘90s; and reveal where Jimmy Carter kept his nuclear codes…  Further Reading: • How Vasili Arkhipov Literally Saved The World From Nuclear War (All That's Interesting, 2018): https://allthatsinteresting.com/vasili-arkhipov • ‘9 Times the World Was at the Brink of Nuclear War — and Pulled Back' (Business Insider, 2018): https://www.businessinsider.com/when-nuclear-war-almost-happened-2018-4?r=US&IR=T#:~:text=The%20Cuban%20Missile%20Crisis%20is%20perhaps%20the%20closest,DEFCON%203%2C%20two%20steps%20away%20from%20nuclear%20war • ‘Arkhipov family awarded Future of Life award' (University of Cambridge, 2017): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziFzn8LN6l0 ‘Why am I hearing a rerun?' Every Thursday is 'Throwback Thursday' on Today in History with the Retrospectors: running one repeat per week means we can keep up the quality of our independent podcast.

Igor Gouzenko,  a Soviet cipher clerk stationed at the Soviet Union's Ottawa embassy during the Second World War, defects to the Canadian government with proof that his country had been spying on its wartime allies: Canada, Britain and the United States. This prompts the Gouzenko Affair. His defection is considered the start of the Cold War. In 1946 the United States, working with Britain, deciphers the code Moscow used to send its telegraph cables. As Venona decryption improves in the late 1940s and early 1950s, it blows the cover of several spies, notably the Atomic Bomb spies.

In this episode we talk about the first dogs to survive space flight in 1960 and we talk about the crazy Korean War hero Melvin L. Brown. Then we get into a scientist's recent paper on malicious aliens living in our galaxy. Stay golden, honkies. 

1962 – Moscú y la Casa Blanca intentan detener un conflicto que podría hacer estallar el mundo en mil pedazos a través de cartas que hemos estado revisando estos días en Notables. La de hoy es una de las respuestas de Kennedy a Kruschev. En la voz, Bárbara Espejo.

El debate más sorprendente entre líderes de las dos grandes potencias de la Guerra Fría se dio en una cocina. O en una cocina ficticia, para ser más exactos. Kruschev contra Nixon. Comunismo contra capitalismo. Dos visiones irreconciliables hasta que aparece un vasito de Pepsi. * Este episodio tuvo como fuentes principales los libros Kitchen, de Banana Yoshimoto; El fin del Homo Sovieticus, de Svetlana Aleksiévich, La importancia del tenedor, de Bee Wilson, Gastro Obscura: A Food Adventurer's Guide, de Cecily Wong y Dylan Thuras y El banquete de los dictadores, de Melissa Scott y Victoria Clark; además del artículo El sueño de la cocina propia, de Juan Forn. En el sitio de la BBC se puede encontrar la transcripción del debate entre Kruschev y Nixon. Por los vínculos entre Kendall, Nixon y el Golpe de Estado en Chile recomiendo el trabajo de Peter Kornbluh para el Centro de Investigación Periodística (Ciper), también disponible en línea. * Nefeli Forni Zervoudaki leyó el texto de Banana Yoshimoto y Cecilia Bonino el de Svetlana Aleksiévich. La voz que narra el ataque al Palacio de la Moneda es del periodista Jaime Vargas. La música original es de Maximiliano Martínez y el diseño de la portada es de Pablo Corrado. Se utilizaron temas libres de derecho como cortina; gracias a Chris Haugen y Dan Lebowitz, estén donde estén. * Gastropolítica es una serie escrita y narrada por Maxi Guerra para Funga, ecosistema de contenidos.

“There is one vice of which no man or woman in the world is free; which everyone in the world loathes when he sees it in someone else; and of which hardly any people, except Christians, ever imagine that they are guilty themselves. There is no fault which makes a man or woman more unpopular, and no fault which we are more unconscious of in ourselves. And the more we have it ourselves, the more we dislike it in others.”Those were the wise and spiritually motivated words of C.S. Lewis, a brilliant writer and apologist who in the later years of his life was converted to Christianity. The vice, or as C.S. Lewis called it THE GREAT SIN is perhaps the deadliest of all:PRIDE.Lewis says that pride is an ego–motivated maneuver to hide from ourselves and others the truth about our inner reality. It comes about, says the gospel writer Mark “from within and defiles a man or woman.”Perhaps one of the greatest examples of destructive pride was the ancient King of Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar. This great King, the mightiest of his time, at or about 600 B.C. was a living example of pride which goes before destruction. He built then the city far and a way the most famous and beautiful in the world at that time, the great city of Babylon. Its huge walls were 387 feet high and 85 feet wide, wide enough that four chariots could be driven side by side along the top. The city was a perfect square, 15 miles on each of the four sides, comfortably housing a population of 1.2 million. The mighty Euphrates River flowed through the city and gardens, groves, orchards and farmlands were contained therein, providing enough food to feed the entire city. Nebuchadnezzar in the Book of Daniel was full of himself, as prideful as any man could be. Hear his words about himself and his great creation Babylon:“Is not this great Babylon that I have built for a royal dwelling by my mighty power and for the honor of my majesty?”In one sentence, Nebuchadnezzar referred to himself with one I and two my's. The great Jehovah brought him down, big time because of his arrogance, his egoism. God turned him into a wolfman and for seven years he ate with the animals until such time as he repented and was restored by the Almighty to his throne. In the case of Nebuchadnezzar, pride indeed went before destruction. A good definition of pride is inordinate self–esteem. Too much, character changing to the point where, as C.S. Lewis so well said to the point where this vice causes all to dislike the person. Pride as well is conceit of superiority, better than others, better than the average person, the common man and woman. We see today a perfect example of that in Vladimir Putin. The man is ruthless, barbaric. He is a murderer, a destroyer because HE believes he is right, entitled and destined. He has total disdain for others and through political maneuverings, has become a virtual dictator in Russia like Stalin, like Kruschev, a believer in the theories of Karl Marx, a rabid communist determined to rebuild the old Soviet Union, the UNION OF SOVIET SOCIALIST REPUBLICS.Prideful persons are arrogant. They have an exalted opinion of themselves and there is considerable vanity in their lives. They are indifferent to others. They don't listen. They simply manipulate the opinion of others in order that what they believe and in a prideful way know is right is fully accepted. Such a man was the Apostle Paul, then Saul, hard as a rock, a prideful, hateful pharisee who saw it as his life mission to destroy and kill Christians. Pride in old line Judaism drove him. But the Christ of Glory brought him down, humbled him beyond belief and radically changed his life. Even as God did that to Nebuchadnezzar, and the Son to Paul, so the day will come when Putin will be brought down and his and Russian pride will be destroyed. Never forget that pride goes before destruction. Pride hardens the heart. A prideful person not only does not listen, but cannot learn and can never appreciate others. Take the case of one of the original twelve disciples, Judas. Here was a man with one of the greatest twelve privileges of all mankind. He worked with, was influenced by, learned from and served the Christ of Glory but never learned to appreciate his God–given opportunity. In fact, he sabotaged, sought to betray and was unfaithful with the money of the Apostles. His thievery and personal shame caused him to commit suicide. How much would you have appreciated being on the original twelve of Jesus Christ? Judas was a prideful man. And so was Peter. When the Roman soldiers came to get our Lord, Peter did not depend upon God, or his Lord for defense. But, took it upon himself to go to battle. He drew his sword, cut off the ear of a Roman soldier and otherwise stood ready for battle until he was put down by his Lord. His pride led him to believe that he could save the day, something utterly impossible. Had he gone to battle with the Roman soldiers, Peter's Pride would have destroyed him. Pride goes before destruction.It is indeed a deadly sin, perhaps the deadliest of the sins. IT EXISTS IN YOU AND ME! We hate to be wrong, criticized, ridiculed, mocked or rejected, do we not? All of us are that way MORE OR LESS, all of us. The only real remedy, lasting, permanent and transforming is:SALVATION IN JESUS CHRIST.That includes the input in heart and soul of humility, grace and most of all, LOVE. If God hates pride and God does, and if it is a C.S. Lewis says a vice of which no man in the world is free, and if at times we are even unaware (unconscious) of pride in ourselves, then the only remedy is:SALVATION IN JESUS CHRIST.You see pride in others and you, as C.S. Lewis says, and I loathe it. We simply do not like a prideful person. It is trouble, a pathway to wrong decisions, a force which prevents the ability to listen and learn. It is toxic, like poison in the body and it will eventually, EVENTUALLY destroy a man or woman. It destroys relationships and marriages. And all the while it wreaks human havoc, it perhaps becomes more than ever one of the things:THE LORD HATES!Our political leaders today are extremely prideful. Many of our religious leaders are as well. Perhaps the most prideful are educators, or learned people. The more in the head, the less in the heart. The Holy Spirit can knock at the heart's door, but there is no heart key to let it in. That is because pride dwells therein and pride is the ultimate destroyer.It is all well and good for us to take satisfaction in accomplishments, including our own intellects, physical or emotional abilities. We can be fulfilled in what we do, and take pleasure in our accomplishments. We can have confidence in ourselves without stepping over the line into the dastardly world of pride. God indeed is a God of love, but we are clearly told that GOD HATES (incredibly opposite) pride. If not now, the time will come when it will bring down any person no matter how high up or powerful. May God melt you, show you yourself when pride rules and lead you away from that short path of that destruction. I know one who could do that. That one is a:CARPENTER FROM NAZARETH!

Todo empezó en la extraordinaria década de 1960. Una década convulsa que cada uno vivió como pudo. Cuando en el mundo empieza a venderse la píldora anticonceptiva, Kruschev monta el show de los zapatos en el XXV aniversario de las naciones unidas, mientras la crisis de los misiles amenaza con iniciar una tercera guerra mundial y es asesinado el presidente John F. Kennedy, en España, concretamente en la localidad de Palomares (Almería), nos caen del cielo, bueno, de un bombardero nuclear B-52, 3 bombas de Hidrógeno de 70 kilotones, hecho que nos proporciona la impagable ocasión de ver a Fraga en calzoncillos, pero también llegó el 600, y el boom turístico. En fin, que en este contexto, y gracias a la radio, siempre la radio, con programas como Europa Musical, o Discograma, se empieza a promocionar a nuevos artistas que emulan a otros que nos llegan de más allá de nuestras franquistas fronteras y que, sin que yo quiera desmerecerla, dejan atrás a la copla para acercarse a las nuevas tendencias que hacen furor en Europa y EEUU. Festivales, revistas y clubs de fans dan a Barcelona una actividad mucho mayor que a cualquier otra parte de España en estos primeros y balbuceantes pasos del rock and roll. Y es allí, en Barcelona, donde aparecen grupos como los Pajaros Locos, Lone Star, los Sirex, los Mustang y nuestros invitados de hoy: LOS SALVAJES. Los Salvajes Recopilatorio Mi bigote, CD 2, corte 05 Mi bigote, una de las primeras canciones propias del grupo. Los Salvajes, o sea, Andy, Gaby, Delfin, Sebastian y Francisco, nacieron musicalmente en Barcelona en 1962 y fueron el contrapunto de otros grupos más modositos, como los Brincos en Madrid, erigiéndose, para toda la eternidad, como los Rollings Stones nacionales, aunque, realmente, ellos querían ser los Who. El grupo su formó en el Poble Sec, en el taller del padre de Gaby, el carismático cantante del grupo. Coetáneos de los Sirex, empezaron haciendo versiones de cantantes italianos, Pepino de Capri o Tony Dallara, pero pronto descubrieron el Rock and Roll escuchando a Johnny Hallyday, Eddy Mitchell y los Shadows y entonces cambió todo. Empezaron a tocar en un garito, El Pinar se llamaba, un garaje durante la semana y sala de conciertos los sábados, donde se juntaba lo mejor de cada casa. De allí pasaron a tocar en la Costa Brava donde un manager alemán se interesó por ellos y se los llevó a Alemania, concretamente a Kiel donde debutaron. No me puedo controlar, una muy buena versión del I Can’t Control Myself, de The Troggs. Los Salvajes Recopilatorio No me puedo controlar, CD 2, corte 04 Su paso por Alemania fue todo menos bonito. En la primera audición ya les dijeron que podían volverse a España, su desfase era evidente. Su repertorio tenía diez años de antigüedad y, según palabras de su representante, “sonaba a música de puticlub”. Tras muchas súplicas consiguieron que los mandasen de gira por los pueblos con otros grupos ingleses para que aprendieran, y vaya que si aprendieron. A los dos meses, después de bregarse en locales inmundos y con públicos que estaban al mismo nivel, con nueva indumentaria, nuevos peinados y con repertorio de Little Rihard y Chuck Berry, ya parecían un grupo inglés. Y así, con nueva imagen y nuevo sonido, volvieron a España. Es mejor dejarlo como está, versión del éxito de los Four Tops. Los Salvajes Recopilatorio Es mejor dejarlo como está, CD 2, corte 03 A mediados de 1964 volvieron a España atraídos por una oferta de la compañía EMI y por un concierto en el que actuaron de teloneros de Moody Blues y en el que, según las crónicas, no desmerecieron en absoluto. Emi quería que Los Salvajes hicieran con los Stones lo que los Mustang hacían con los Beatles. Versiones. Llegaron a un acuerdo para hacer también canciones propias, una mínimo en cada disco. Resultó que luego funcionaron mejor que las versiones, que a su vez, ya funcionaban mejor a veces que los originales, como «Todo negro», o el famoso “Satisfacción”, así, en español, de los Stones. Estas imposiciones de las compañías eran el pan nuestro de cada día. Y es que, en esa época, esta compañías, algunos programas de TV y algunos de radio, abusaban de su posición de privilegio y exclusividad en los medios de comunicación exprimiendo hasta la extenuación a los artistas. Los dueños de estos programas tenían, además, cadenas de discotecas, salas de conciertos, vaya, que movían el cotarro y si querías salir en sus programas, si querías que tu disco sonara, tenías que tocar gratis en sus locales. En fin… Vamos a escuchar una de las versiones que hemos citado: Todo negro, Paint It, black Los Salvajes Recopilatorio Todo negro, CD 2, corte 06 Pero, además de las presiones de los medios, estaba el sindicato vertical. Claro que esto no afectaba solamente a los Salvajes, afectaba a todo aquel que quisiera dedicarse al mundo del espectáculo. Para actuar en España en cualquier sala de fiestas, así se llamaban entonces los bailes, el artista debería estar en posesión del carnet del sindicato vertical de músicos, un carnet blanco que te habilitaba. Para obtenerlo había que pasar un examen de música, o sea, leer un partitura. La inmensa mayoría de los grupos no tenían ni idea de música por lo que debían optar por otro carnet, uno rosa, que era el correspondiente a “circo y variedades”. Como si fuera un domador de leones. Pero ojo, si tocabas con el carnet rosa, la gente no podía bailar y si te pillaban, multa al canto. Bueno…, cosas de la época. Una de las canciones propias de su repertorio, Fuera de mi corazón, una producción propia al mejor estilo de James Brown. Los Salvajes Recopilatorio Fuera de mi corazón, CD 2, corte 06 Los Salvajes vivían de los directos, las ventas de discos nunca dieron para ello, por eso, cuando llegaron las discotecas, se acabó lo que se daba. Salas atractivas, equipos de sonido de última generación y música enlatada de cualquier país del mundo. ¿Que grupo podía igualar la oferta? A esto habría que añadir que la discográfica empezó a pedirles pop más ligero, tipo Fórmula V o Los Diablos, un estilo que estaba años luz del suyo. Así que, todo esto, el cansancio acumulado, alguna mala crítica y el mal royo entre los miembros del grupo hizo que Gaby, el cantante, abandonara el grupo. El resto siguió unos meses más para finalmente separarse en 1970. Vivir sin ti, otra producción propia. Los Salvajes Recopilatorio Vivir sin ti, CD 2, corte 07 Desde entonces, Los Salvajes han permanecido, de forma intermitentemente, en activo y por sus filas han pasado infinidad de músicos pero Delfín Fernández, batería de la formación desde el primer día, sigue al frente de la banda. Para todos aquellos, bueno, con una cierta edad, que en algún momento de nuestra vida hemos querido formar parte de un grupo, la referencia de Los Salvajes, ha sido una constante. Típica banda de garaje, golfos hasta la médula, músicos hechos así mismos, con las ventajas e inconvenientes que ello puede tener, fagocitados por la industria y, como tantos otros, por las rencillas internas. Sobre su reiteradas vueltas a los escenarios no me voy a manifestar. Yo soy de la opinión de que las cosas tienen su momento y que forzar etapas puede resultar patético. Me quedo con los salvajes de la primera época, el grupo en el que me hubiera gustado estar. El bote que remo, una versión de la canción de Neil Diamond. Los Salvajes Recopilatorio El bote que remo, CD 2, corte 08 Vamos a despedirnos de nuestros, a su pesar, Rolling Stones particulares, con una de sus mejores versiones, Algo de títere, o lo que es lo mismo: Jumping Jack Flash. Los Salvajes Recopilatorio Algo de títere, CD 2, corte 14 Y nada más por hoy. Nos lo hemos pasado muy bien recordando a un grupo español de los sesenta, que marcó distancias con su coetáneos diseñando una imagen y un sonido que muchos que vinieron después han sabido aprovechar. Gracias a todos por la atención y os esperamos aquí el próximo jueves. Os esperamos con más música, más músicos y más historias. Hasta entonces, … ¡¡¡buenas vibraciones!!!.

Soviet naval officer Vasili Arkhipov lacks the name recognition of Castro, Kruschev and Kennedy - but his actions during the Cuban Missile Crisis probably prevented World War Three from erupting on 27th October, 1962. On-board a sweltering Russian submarine, he talked Captain Valentin Savitsky down from firing a nuclear torpedo at the United States Navy, whom - Savitsky falsely believed - were attacking his boat. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly speculate how Arkhipov stopped Savitsky from firing his ‘special weapon'; explain why his heroic story was untold until the ‘90s; and reveal where Jimmy Carter kept his nuclear codes… Further Reading• How Vasili Arkhipov Literally Saved The World From Nuclear War (All That's Interesting, 2018): https://allthatsinteresting.com/vasili-arkhipov• ‘9 Times the World Was at the Brink of Nuclear War — and Pulled Back' (Business Insider, 2018): https://www.businessinsider.com/when-nuclear-war-almost-happened-2018-4?r=US&IR=T#:~:text=The%20Cuban%20Missile%20Crisis%20is%20perhaps%20the%20closest,DEFCON%203%2C%20two%20steps%20away%20from%20nuclear%20war• ‘Arkhipov family awarded Future of Life award' (University of Cambridge, 2017): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ziFzn8LN6l0For bonus material and to support the show, visit Patreon.com/RetrospectorsWe'll be back tomorrow!

The Cuban Missile Crisis of 1963 might be the closest the world has ever come to actual nuclear war – but do we really understand what went on between Kennedy, the USA and Kruschev's USSR? Ukraine-born Harvard Professor of History Serhii Plokhy tells Jude Rogers about his new book Nuclear Folly: A New History of the Cuban Missile Crisis – and what this fatal moment in the confrontation between East and West can tell us about today's unspoken second Cold War. “Diplomatic telegrams were so slow that Kruschev thought the best way to communicate with Kennedy was openly, through Radio Moscow.”“The technology has changed since the Cuban Missile Crisis but human nature hasn't.” “Today we're back in the uncharted waters of the nuclear arms race before the Cuban Crisis.”Presented by Jude Rogers.

This episode is about a grain elevator while Adolf Hitler loses his patience once more and fires General Halder. I had the fortune to study American Landscape History at Harvard University with one of the most incredible thinkers of modern times – Professor John Stilgoe. He would present his two hour lectures using hundreds of slides – and one of his fascinating topics was grain elevators. Only countries with food surplus have grain elevators for storage and since then, I've kept a sharp eye on the hundreds in my home country of South Africa. In Stalingrad, the grain elevator was actually the main motif planned for German badges to be issued to the 6th Army upon its fall by its leader, General Paulus. Ah yes, history had other ideas. Elevators are built out of reinforced concrete and in the case of Stalingrad, the elevators survived some of the most intense bombings and shelling of any building in history. Last week I covered the assaults on Mamaev Hill or Kurgan as its known, a site of Tartar graves and rebuilt after the Revolution of 1917 into a park where lovers would gather. IT was also the most bloody few acres of the Stalingrad conflict. It's 300 foot heights meant whomever controlled this hill, controlled the view of the Mighty Volga River. So after the Red Army finally seized control in mid-September, it was more difficult for the Germans to range their artillery and hit the ferries and other craft crossing the Volga. Of course, with material and men being shipped across, mainly at night, it was crucial to try to stop the Russians from resupplying the 62nd and 64th Armies which had been pushed back against the Volga in two areas by the German 6th and 4th Panzer Armies. The fighting on the 14, 15th and 16th September had been brutal, but was just the start of a huge escalation across Stalingrad. In Moscow, US embassy diplomats were reporting that the city was finished and on the evening of the 16th an aide walked into Joseph Stalin's office and placed a transcription down on his desk. It was the text of an intercepted radio message from Berlin which said “Stalingrad has been taken by brilliant German forces. Russia has been cut into two parts, north and south, and will soon collapse in her death throes”. Stalin got up and stood at his window then ordered the aide to put him through to the STAVKA. He then dictated a message for Kruschev and Yeremenko on the West bank of the Volga outside Stalingrad. “Is it true Stalingrad has been captured by the Germans?” he asked “Give a straight and truthful answer…” Little did Stalin know that the scrappy general Rodimtsev who I described last week had arrived in the nick of time with the 295 Division and pushed the Germans back from the Volga and the central station.

Episode 13 is full of fire and brimstone as the Sixth Army and Fourth Panzer Army finally arrive in Stalingrad proper. That's when the fighting becomes more personal with every house and every apartment a stronghold and skirmishes begin to take place inside different rooms of the same house. By the end of the first week of September 1942 the German Sixth Army had come up to the western limits of the city almost along the whole of its length, while the Fourth Panzer Army were probing the southern limits. Ditches and barricades proved no lasting barriers to the weight of German pressure, only men and women could hold the Wehrmacht back. The air-attacks had stopped for only a freak building here and there stood untouched among the vast devastation. The great blocks of flats, the fine public buildings were now crazy hollow shells. Civilians were now sheltering in the basements and some would remain in these gloomy pits until the defeat of the Germans in February 1943. And it was for this crazy shell of a city that the fiercest of all city-battles of the Second World War was joined. For the Russians, its factories could no longer contribute to the Soviet war-effort, for the Germans it was useless as a shelter. Even its strategic value either for the Germans or the Russians was now extremely doubtful. For Hitler as we'll see, it was to become an object of a Führer-prestige obsession. For Stalin it would become the symbol of the ultimate Russian defiance. For the Germans it would be synonymous with final defeat – for the Russians it was to mark the beginning of final victory. Last episode I explained how General Golikov was left behind on the West bank of the Volga River joining General Lopatin who commanded what was left of the 62nd Army. Golikov had begged to be allowed out of Stalingrad but Kruschev who was the political commissar in command along with Yeremenko told him to pull himself together. Lopatin on the other hand was a nervous wreck and hardly an ideal leader of men at this moment.

Jordan Rausch explores the history of JFK and his white house drug dealer Dr. Max Jacobson aka Dr. Feelgood. JFK grew up sickly and in pain. By the time that he was campaigning for president, he could barely manage the fatigue and muscle pain that plagued him daily. Dr. Max Jacobson offers JFK a mysterious drug concoction. The Secret Service and Robert Kennedy are very suspicious of Jacobson, but JFK keeps him close by in case the need of another shot arrives.  Sources: The New York Post "The Kennedy meth" https://nypost.com/2013/04/21/the-kennedy-meth/ The New York Magazine "The Strange Saga of JFK and the Original 'Dr. Feelgood'" http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2013/11/strange-saga-of-jfk-and-dr-feelgood.html

When you think of an isolated, walled-off country, your mind might immediately go to North Korea. But during the Communist era, Albania may have actually been even more secluded, despite the fact it shared a border with Greece. On today's episode, my guest is Allison Green, author of the Eternal Arrival blog, part of the Condé Nast Traveler blog network. We talk about what life was like in Albania after its independence from the Ottoman Empire, how the country became a pawn between Hitler and Mussolini, and how its tyrannical dictator walled it off from the outside world. Sound familiar? A modern history of occupation As Allison tells me in this episode, toward the end of the 20th century, Albanians began to develop a sense of nationalism, writers and artists began to foster an Albanian consciousness while the Ottoman Empire began to decline. And in 1912, rebels stage a series of revolts, leading to a declaration of independence from the empire in September of that year. But as soon as they create an independent state, Albania isn't sure what form of government they want. The government goes back and forth from a monarchy to a republic, until the start of World War I when Mussolini marches his troops into Albania and occupies it, setting up the Fascist Party of Albania. And then Germany came in as well, and in 1943, pushed Italy out. Who are Albanians? The most Googled question about Albania, according to Allison, is “Where is Albania?” And hand-in-hand with that, is the question “Who are Albanians?” And while many Eastern European countries hung onto their religious institutions throughout various occupations, Albanians assumed the Islam of the Ottoman Empire. But it's lived much differently than what many Westerners may think of when they picture Muslim countries. Interfaith marriages are common, pork is plentiful, and there is very little religious conflict within the country (until Communism took over). And what's interesting is that the Albanian language is not related to other tongues in the area. It's idiosyncratic and difficult to learn, and as Allison says, when she ordered two beers at a restaurant in Albanian, the waiter nearly fell over he was so surprised. The rise of communism Once the Soviets free Albania and the Communist Party takes over, Enver Halil Hoxha takes over as head of state in 1944, a position he would hold until his death in 195. Indebted to Stalinism, Hoxha begins purging the country of elites and intellectuals, and liquidates personal wealth and transferring it to the state. Thousands of people were expelled or thrown into gulags. But as soon as Stalin dies and Kruschev takes over, Albania's relationship with the Soviet Union begins to fray. And surprisingly, Albania forges a partnership with another Communist giant, China. Unfortunately, as Albania bunkered down in its Communism, it became walled off and had very little access to the outside world. And then, when Mao dies in China, Hoxha severed that relationship, and the country's last link to the outside world. Post-communism, why you should visit and leave Liam Neeson at home The reign of Hoxha was brutal for Albania, and also not without its quirks. He was so paranoid, he built hundreds of thousands of concrete bunkers, in preparation for what he thought was the country's imminent invasion. But by 1990, revolution had come to Albania, and the Communist regime was toppled. That meant Albanians could once again travel abroad, and its borders were open to the world. There may not be too many diamonds in the rough in world travel these days, but Albania is a country full of mystery and beauty that you should try to see. And there's no better guide to provide travel tips in Albania than Allison. (One pro tip: Don't mention Liam Neeson or Taken).

Para celebrar o aniversário de 4 anos do Podcast do Instituto Mises Brasil escolhemos um entrevistado de peso, dono de uma obra intelectual importante e uma história fabulosa desde a juventude marxista, atuando na linha de frente do Partido Comunista Brasileiro (PCB), até a guinada para o liberalismo. Nascido em 1927, Antonio Paim, professor e autor de uma bibliografia fundamental para entender a política brasileira e as ideias da liberdade no Brasil, chegou a viver cinco anos em Moscou, a convite do governo soviético, para estudar as ideias socialistas e comunistas. Ele estava se preparando para se tornar um bolchevique quando as incoerências da teoria contribuíram para reforçar um problema familiar que despertou o processo de rompimento. “Na nossa definição, o bolchevista (ou bolchevique) não tinha alma, o que significava você perder a humanidade; você não tinha amigo, família. É uma coisa brutal”, disse o professor nesta entrevista. Ainda em Moscou, Paim desligou-se do Partido Comunista após o discurso feito em fevereiro de 1956 por Nikita Kruschev durante o XX Congresso do Partido Comunista da União Soviética. Kruschev era o secretário-geral do partido e apresentou um relatório no qual acusava Stalin de “uso indiscriminado de violência, execuções, processos fraudulentos contra adversários políticos, violando todas as normas de legalidade revolucionária. Até então, a barbárie stalinista era negada pelos partidos comunistas do mundo inteiro (alguns velhos stalinistas negam até hoje). Paim perdeu o emprego do governo soviético e viu-se sem dinheiro e casado com uma tradutora russa, algo que fora considerado absurdo pela direção do partido. Assim, decidiu voltar para o Brasil. Mas o fim do compromisso ideológico só foi possível depois de mais de 15 anos de estudo da obra do filósofo Immanuel Kant com um engenheiro alemão no Rio de Janeiro (e seus anos de estudos foram a base do seu ótimo livro “Marxismo e Descendência”). Esse rompimento tornou possível, depois, conhecer e tornar-se um estudioso e defensor das ideias da liberdade, segundo ele conta neste Podcast especial que teve o privilégio de celebrar seus 4 anos de existência entrevistando o professor Antonio Paim, um dos grande nomes do liberalismo brasileiro.

La Historia del Mundo - Junio 5 - La contrarreforma de la era de Kruschev

La Historia del Mundo - Mayo 15 - La era de Kruschev

The murder of our President, John Fitzgerald Kenendy, in Dealey Plaza, Dallas Texas, on November 22nd 1963 at 12:30pm was a chaotic and terrifying event that struck fear into the hearts of many. To truly understand the circumstances of his execution one must adopt a broad understanding of its context. Cuba, Russia, Castro, Kruschev, Nixon, Kennedy, Howard Hunt, U2 spy planes, murder plots, elections, coups and executions. It is difficult to understand how amidst this chaos two young men separated by class and circumstance like the President and his assassin could bump together so tragically. The idea that the President just happened to pass a an armed revolutionary looking for a place in the history books is so incredibly coincidental that it couldn’t possibly be true. But that is history. Coincidental chaos. That is what it makes it interesting. That is what makes it worth studying. But the terrifying chaos of history is too much for some I suppose. And the idea that a vast government conspiracy committed a brutal coup d’etat in Dallas that day brings order to the chaos of history. And it soothes the souls of the frightened people to know that there is something greater than themselves controlling their world.
