This full-length, standalone episode explores and explodes the myths and conspiracy claims about Hitler escaping Berlin at the end of WWII. Shockingly, it seems the History Channel misled us on this one!

A Very Historically Blind Xmas: The Iconic Christ
In this annual holiday special, I look at the original Protestant "War on Christmas," with its emphasis on iconoclasm, and use that to springboard into a discussion of Christmas iconography and images of Jesus Christ generally, asking, "What did Christ really look like?"

Customer Reviews
Awesome
Wonderful podcast. Never a dull moment. I recommend it to as many friends as I can.
History in Depth
Seriously, for all the No-nonsense hard facts on what you thought you knew, HB delivers. Lloyd is so exacting and meticulous in his research that he doesn’t leave any detail to chance. The truth is out there, and Historical Blindness has it.
A well crafted and unapologetic podcast
I have been listening now for a few months and have thoroughly enjoyed the variety and voice of this podcast.
Shared it with several friends who have also become enthusiasts.
Great job.
