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.

Customer Reviews
Love this show and how Robert explains his research
Also love Sophie and how thoughtful they are about ensuring that relevant people are guests and connected to topics and can add interesting insight. Also love Prop every time he’s on! Listen to Hood Politics too!
I wish the guests were better informed.
Sometimes I’m left wondering what the guests actually contribute beyond simple distraction. There a too many “let’s sit down & joke around like buddies” style podcasts out there all ready. I can do that with my own mates. With upgraded guests & fewer nonsequiturs, this show would rate a 5.
Sophie Forever
I believe in Sophie Rae Lichterman supremacy.
