Audience expansion
This is important - more people need to know this history.
Both hosts are clearly genius, yet the narrative flow is continually interrupted by the co-host. I have listened to hours on end of Robert Evans, but I find Prop very distracting.
I feel like this show should be done at least 3 more times. Same narrative, different hosts from various perspectives. Like Pakman , Rogan, and some fascist wannabe. With extra time available for debate/school time with Robert. Kinda wish Matt would pull the chalkboard out a bit more with his guests.
It struck me when Prop said ‘oh, so the white man caused the problem,’ that there are A LOT of us just like Robert and that we are now the (potential) solution.
It Could Happen Here
Solid overview, with some issues
A very interesting and solid, if quick overview of the roots of modern fascism. Evans is engaging, but the co-host, Propaganda, brings little to the table with either pointless attempts to give contemporary examples of what Evans just described, or gets something fairly wrong.
The bigger issue is that there are sudden ad breaks that cuts off the podcast in mid-speech. Then there come the “official” ad breaks just a minute or two later.
“Not a fan of Joseph Stalin…”
What a ringing denunciation! Sort of like the half-hearted condemnation of the Anarchist practice of murdering priests and nuns, burning churches, and digging up the graves of nuns and standing up the corpses on street corners. Not barbarism…. Just “bad optics.”
Still, I have to give him props for giving an erudite and very fair review of the lead-up to the Spanish Civil War. He had the good sense to cite Stanley Payne rather than Paul Preston.
