    Rafael Trujillo Part 1: Scourge of the Dominican Republic

    Rafael Trujillo held the Dominican Republic in his grip for 31 long years, from 1930 to 1961. He ruled with extraordinary brutality and a colossal ego. Yet riding the currents of geopolitics, he managed to hold onto power for far longer than many deemed possible. Even when dictators were being toppled all over Europe, Trujillo’s Caribbean fiefdom stood firm. But before all that, our story begins in the summer of 1917. On a sugar plantation, baking under a tropical sun, a guard patrols on horseback - master of all he surveys. Little does anyone realise, the seeds of a three-decade dictatorship are already being sown… A Noiser podcast production. Narrated by Paul McGann. Featuring Lauren Derby, Edward Paulino, Eric Roorda, Alex von Tunzelmann. This is Part 1 of 3. Written by Duncan Barrett | Assistant Producer: Chris McDonald | Exec produced by Joel Duddell | Sound supervisors: Tom Pink, Matt Peaty | Sound design & audio editing by George Tapp | Assembly editing by Dorry Macaulay, Rob Plummer | Compositions by Oliver Baines, Dorry Macaulay, Tom Pink | Mix & mastering: Josh Latham | Recording engineer: Joseph McGann.

  • A lone wolf almost killed Hitler

    A lone wolf almost killed Hitler

    In November 1939, a bomb ripped through a crowded Munich beer hall moments after its target walked out the door. The target was Adolf Hitler and he missed death by mere minutes. The man behind the attack was not a soldier, a politician, or member of a resistance network. He was just a carpenter and he did it all by himself. Riley Knight (Podcaster and Author, The Most Interesting People You've Never Heard Of) tells Marc Fennell the incredible story of Georg Elser and how he came so close to changing the course of history, and why do so few people know his story. Binge all the episodes of No One Saw It Coming now on ABC listen (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts. Get in touch: Got a story for us? We'd love to hear from you!

    What Nuking Iran Would Actually Be Like | Eyes On Geopolitics

    We break down Tucker Carlson’s claim that the U.S. could use a nuclear weapon against Iran’s deeply buried Pickaxe Mountain facility, what tactical nukes can actually do, and why the idea is far less straightforward than it sounds. We also discuss the risks of radioactive fallout, whether the leak itself could be strategic signaling, the limits of another air campaign, and whether diplomacy with Iran is starting to become the only realistic path forward.
