There’s a reason the History Channel has produced hundreds of documentaries about Hitler but only a few about Dwight D. Eisenhower. Bad guys (and gals) are eternally fascinating. Behind the Bastards dives in past the Cliffs Notes of the worst humans in history and exposes the bizarre realities of their lives. Listeners will learn about the young adult novels that helped Hitler form his monstrous ideology, the founder of Blackwater’s insane quest to build his own Air Force, the bizarre lives of the sons and daughters of dictators and Saddam Hussein’s side career as a trashy romance novelist.
New episodes twice a week on iHeartRadio.

It's interesting to me how the arguments for slavery made at the time are reflected on the true justification for our modern capitalist mode of production. The rich don't want to equally share the burden of work required to maintain our society, they would much rather put the brunt of that work upon those without wealth, and maintain positions of management, leadership, etc.
More of these! My heart!
Lol read your comments no one agrees with your slander
You are c clueless to the jq
Oy vey
This one is boring, compared to other episodes. The script seems to be much shorter than usual.
All the correction replies about Monticello... it's pronounced Mon-tees-el-low.
Jordan Peterson's video lectures seem amazing until you pause them and look up what he's talking about. While what he pushes is not inaccurate, there are a lot of leaps of logic. I think his downfall was believing his own mythos.
Oh hey it's another prop interrupts and talks about himself incessantly episode. Great.
Oz was really giving Robert a run for his money. Really great questions. I'm going to have to check out their podcast, lol
Thomas Jefferson WAS a coward... But from what I've seen, most people are.
The women on this podcast do not have any meaningful contributions. They’re not funny, there not adding to the discussion, they’re mindlessly just having emotional reactions and derailing it into immature tangents.
orangotang looking at me: "pfffs, you wish!"
This is one of the best and most accurate series so far. There's little to argue with here. Jefferson starts off idealistic but as he gets older he has to justify his continued slave holding and wealth. Just like conservatives of today he does so by arguing that he was born better, that he and his people have achieved more. Yeah, he's a bastard. The claim that white people can't work is a weird one. Did they not see all the poor white farmers and laborers? These were educated men, they knew their classical history, that the Greek and Roman societies they so admired were based on the labor of largely European slaves.
I think it's fair to say that some of these backward views were widely held and the landed gentry of that period were pretty much retarded as a whole

"The slaves are revolting!" "I don't like that word, that S word." "Okay. The prisoners with jobs are revolting."
Im barely getting to watch this. Thank you so much. I didnt even realize i was going in the deep end
Something else about the Bumper Boats that I read in several places said that the boats were so small that tall people had to ride with their legs draped over the sides, resulting in many people’s legs getting fractured from having boats leaking gasoline slamming into them. 😂😂😂
so if a human wanted to have sex with an orangutan that would be racist. huh.
It hurts my feelings that no one said that guy had a ringy on his dinghy
Listening to this episode in June 2024, and being reminded of Lyndon Larouche running for president from a prison cell hits alittle differently.
LISA stood for Legit, I'm Still A-asshole
33:09 Why does that sound familiar💀 . . .
You know, if the gays were actually recruiting, I'd join them. I've been to their bars. I've been to their parades. They're having way more fun than I am.
I imagine it depends on the doctor and the body part, but they will let you keep your removed body parts. I had an art teacher that had a portion of one of his fingers amputated and he kept it.
In that gold commercial, doesn't Liddy sound like J. Jonah Jameson?
I live in Saint John, New Brunswick, I love that Benedict Arnold's old pad is a coffee shop and a candy store, lol.
HE wrote a cohesive articulate 1 hour long, and for a couple of years 2 hour radio show 5 days a week for 9 years, try doing that getting drunk everyday. Alot harder then clicking a button on youtube and waxing poetic.
The story on how he built his home radio station over the years is awesome. He started recording on VHS tapes and mailed them to the radio station to getting better and better equipment over the 9 years, where by 2001 it was getting very professional RIP BIll. Only 58.😢
Fun fact: When he was in the Navy in Hawaii he built a Gazebo for Richard Nixon in Clare Boothe Luces backyard.
The agregor(sp?) part sounds like the plot of ffxiv
Fantastic marketer, lol he did no press for his book and didn't even get royalties from the publisher from 1993-1998, but he allowed it to be sold just so it would get out. He also only had 4 adverisers in 9 years, not for lack of demand, but because he didn't take anyone. He ran his show from donations and selling audio tapes of his show. It cost him 10,000 a month to run his show, mostly to the shortwave radio station he contracted with. BTW his show was the 2nd most popular show on shortwave in the 90s.
He has over 1600 hours of radio shows, why don't you go listen to them all, then you will realize that everyone who talks about Bill are ill informed. This is the worst version I've heard. His 4 part mind control series is incredible, and he sites his sources, unlike everyone else.
Have you ever listened to Bills radio show? It's probably the most down to earth honest radio show in history. He did not ever allow any guest, which he had 100s, to speak conjecture, opinion, unless stated you were, or any information where you couldn't site your source.
You guys don't know shit, before Cooper there was Mae Brussell and before her there was george seldes and before him in 1896 there was the iconoclast newsletter.
Lyman's shackled to a wall in Jon's basement.
It's actually pretty scary that had I been a kid at this time and not the early 2000s, I might have ended up here. I was incredibly fidgety, I always blurted out in class, and I had violence and temper issues. Heck, I was in special needs from 1st -5th grade. Still, I don't think my parents or teachers would have advocated for this anyway.
41:00 to 41:05 I’ve replayed that several times, and I can’t tell if the sound at the end is Sophie cackling, or wailing in doomed horror
At 13:44 Robert swaps Mangele with Epstein 2 times and nobody noticed x) And omg those episodes were bleak...
Sometimes I am reminded that not everyone is from virginia and knows it's actually pronounced "Stan-ton" and "Monti-chello"
25:00
Really Thomas? You're gonna run away? Right in front of my crab dragoons..... I'll see myself out.
Why would the co-host say "trueee" to hearing social security is a ponzi scheme? It's not.
I just wanna point out that you _technically_ don't know how many of the other people were serious. I mean, chances are, someone saw you excitedly riding the triceratops and thought "look at that Christian Fundamentalist!" Which is funny in some sort of ironic way... but I guess it really doesn't have much to do with anything.
I think the greatest difference between a citizen soldier and slave master aristocracy warrior is resilience in a societal level. I like to compare the Roman Republic and Sparta. The republic bounced back from atrocious defeats and losses, best exemplified by the Second Punic War, as the populace railed for a long fight, and that seem to have been the real roman superpower. While the Spartans where probably the best warriors, they lived in fear of defeat, as the moment their army was gone their slaves would revolt and end them.
Holy shit I read John dies at the end a WHILE ago, I had no idea I was gonna hear about it again :D
Listening while slurping loudly on my cocoa while I sit in my non-imploding house
5:40 - and THAT is the main problem in the U.S. I am from Europe, and I was NEVER anti-gay, but not because I am oh so wise, but because WE DO NOT HAVE THOSE BUBBLES. We talk to each other. We notice that the gay-haters are mostly just haters; if not the gays, they would hate some other group. You need to TALK to people. Living in the bubble is the death to any society. DO NOT ALLOW the right wingers to keep exploiting the bubble!
"If N*groes are to be slaves on account of colour, the next step will be to enslave every Mulatto in the kingdom, then all the Portuguese, next the French, then the brown-complexioned English, and so on until there be only one free man left, which will be the man of palest complexion in the three kingdoms." And that man would be Irish. No wonder they didn't go for it.
