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.

best podcasts out there ,

Great podcast

great informative and entertaining podcast, sometimes not easy to listen to as subject matter can be gruesome

Too noisy !

The idea is great, the content is informative. I listen to podcasts during bedtime and have been falling asleep this way for a decade. Sadly the dialog between hosts is too unpredictably noisy, often startling me. You should keep it mellow!
