In this episode, Brandon explores the historical events of Poe’s early life that led him to a brief stay in Charleston, the legend of the woman in white, and the possibilities as to whether this haunting really was true or not Learn more about your ad choices.

    The Looming Threat of Fascism - Part Two: The Beer Hall Putsch

    In the conclusion of my series on the rise of fascism in Italy and Germany in the 1920s, I make further legitimate comparisons to modern American politics and Trumpism. Continued insistence that there are no grounds for such comparisons at this point borders on denialism. This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
