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.

'Allo ,

Love it but… one thing…

… I really can’t stand it when Sophie just starts talking here and there sometimes for no reason whatsoever; like she needs some sort of attention…. At least that’s what it sounds like.
It just takes me completely out of the show.
I’m not trying to sound horrible and I know it sounds awful to say it… I’m a bastard, I know.

i wrote a long review but it didn't send

basically i said that sophie is allowed to talk and contribute to the ideas, and the reviews complaining about how much they hate her is just really awful. i also said that the episodes are well researched and entertaining. idk why it didn't sent but i stil want to state my opinion. also i will die on the hill that sophie is a great part of the podcast.
