Über diesen Titel
History is rarely black and white.
In this debut episode, we explore the uncomfortable and bizarre "good deeds" performed by four of history's most notorious figures.
We dig into the archives to uncover:
• Adolf Hitler’s Health Kick: How the man responsible for the Holocaust also launched a pioneering public campaign to ban smoking completely.
• Saddam Hussein’s Soft Side: Beyond the genocide and human rights abuses, Saddam was a champion of education who achieved 100% primary school enrollment in Iraq and free hospital visits.
• Napoleon’s Equality: A look at how a ruthless dictator created the laws that became the basis for modern equality and forbade titles acquired at birth.
• The Scientist Emperor: How Emperor Hirohito, despite Japan’s WWII atrocities, spent his spare time discovering new species of marine life as a respected botanist.
Join us as we navigate the moral gray areas of history.
Note: This podcast is an exercise in holding two opposing thoughts at once. While we discuss specific positive policies, we strictly condemn the evil these figures committed. The good does not excuse the bad.
