Built in 1927, the German ocean liner SS Cap Arcona was the greatest ship since the RMS Titanic and one of the most celebrated luxury liners in the world. When the Nazis seized control in Germany, she was stripped down for use as a floating barracks and troop transport. Later, during the war, Hitler's minister, Joseph Goebbels, cast her as the "star" in his epic propaganda film about the sinking of the legendary Titanic. Following the film's enormous failure, the German navy used the Cap Arcona to transport German soldiers and civilians across the Baltic, away from the Red Army's advance. In the Third Reich's final days, the ill-fated ship was packed with thousands of concentration camp prisoners. Without adequate water, food, or sanitary facilities, the prisoners suffered as they waited for the end of the war. Just days before Germany surrendered, the Cap Arcona was mistakenly bombed by the British Royal Air Force, and nearly all of the prisoners were killed in the last major tragedy of the Holocaust and one of history's worst maritime disasters.

Episode 52, as promised we have invited Professor Robert Watson back for a second episode. As mentioned last week, Watson is a prolific writer. He is the author of 47 books and approximately 200 scholarly articles, essays and chapters on topics in history and politics, a professor, author, historian, media commentator and community activist. This week we pivot away from local politics and take a deep dive into American presidential politics. We discuss his picks for best President and then go on to discuss First Ladies. We also discuss one his most recent books, The Nazi Titanic, a look at a heretofore untold story of the construction and eventual sinking of a ship built during WWII. We had so much to talk about. I am hoping we can bring Professor Watson back for another episode in the near future - so sit back and listen to another interesting conversation.
Episode 51 as we begin our second year of podcasts (yes, we did take a few weeks off when we took a cruise around Iceland), we finally snagged a guest we've been chasing for over 6 months. Professor Robert Watson is a busy, busy guy! An author of 47 books and approximately 200 scholarly articles, essays and chapters on topics in history and politics, a professor, author, historian, media commentator and community activist, we really wanted to sit him down to talk about history, politics and education. Robert Watson is a professor, author, historian, media commentator and community activist. His recent books America's First Crisis, The Nazi Titanic, The Ghost Ship of Brooklyn, George Washington's Final Battle and Escape have received critical acclaim. A frequent media commentator, Watson has been interviewed by local, national and international television, radio, print and online outlets including CNN, MSNBC, Time, USAToday, The New York Times, BBC and more. He served for many years as the political analyst for WPTV 5 NBC, a Sunday columnist for the Sun-Sentinel newspaper and a regular guest on television shows “To the Point” (WPTV 5 NBC) and “Issues” (WPBT 2 PBS) and on radio programs on RTE One Ireland, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, WIOD 610 AM and WFTL 850 AM. Spoiler alert -- we had so much to talk about we invited Professor Watson back for Episode 52 - so sit back and listen to a very interesting conversation.
This week John tells the boys about Joseph Goebbels and the Third Reich's film "Titanic," a movie that led to the director's execution and more deaths on board a ship than the Titanic itself. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

OBS! Det förekommer eko då och då, det var ett tekniskt strul som skapade detta på ett av spåren som dessvärre inte gick att ta bort. Hoppas det går bra ändå vänner!Visste ni att nazisterna gjorde en egen film om skeppet Titanic och dess tragiska öde? En propagandafilm mot Storbritannien och de allierade styrkorna.Emil och Mattias tar sig en titt på Titanic (1943) aka Nazi Titanic och en kvick översyn på propagandafilm, särskilt från andra världskriget . Detta gör de självklart med sin vanliga sedvanliga "humor", men också med ett allvarsamt öga som ämnet ändå kräver. Fast tänk efter... Nazi Titanic.

Today we visit the Gobi Desert in search of the Mongolian Death Worm, then take a trip to the freezing cold waters where the Titanic sunk and enjoy a screening of a Nazi version of that infamous incident. The Mongolian Death Worm is a creature of legend but many believes it still stalks the Gobi Desert today. Is it possible that an acid spitting, ground electrifying, massive worm is evading human capture only feet underground? Then we get a private viewing of "Titanic." No, not the one with Leonardo DiCaprio but one made by the Nazis as a propaganda film during the height of World War 2. But just like the ship it was based on, the movie was doomed from the start.

In 1943, Nazi Germany made the world's most expensive propaganda film: "Titanic." The story of the Nazi Titanic ends even more tragically than the story of the real Titanic. We relied on Robert P. Watson's book "The Nazi Titanic," and this excellent article by The Times of Israel: http://www.timesofisrael.com/goebbels-titanic-cinematic-disaster-turns-70/?fb_comment_id=633081316715300_102564287 UPDATE: We just learned a "Nazi Titanic" movie is already in the works. We can't wait to see it. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Robert Watson, Ph.D., Professor of American Studies College of Arts and Sciences at Lynn University, in his book "The Nazi Titanic" exposes a little known event, the deliberate scuttling by the Nazis of a ship filled with prisoners in order to hide evidence of the Holocaust and forced labor at the end of World War II.
