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.

Every day Robert Evans, Garrison Davis, Mia Wong, and James Stout take you on a jaunty walk through the burning ruins of the old world and towards a better one that lays just on the horizon.

Excellent host, inconsistent guests

Robert is a fantastic researcher, writer, and host. I’m guessing the style (dark subject matter through a weird anarchist comedy lens) is either for you or not, but I think it’s a fun and accessible way to learn about some historic (and modern) figures. Sadly the guests are hit and miss. Some are great. Some are a bit of a drag. Hope they widen the net more.

Prop needs to try and stay sober during recording. He sounds like he’s consistently impaired and goes off on bizarre, nonsensical rants. The episodes he’s on are definitely difficult to listen to. Aside from that I absolutely love this show. I need to take a break now and then or else it gets too depressing, but o always come back!
Love the banter
