1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,720 Speaker 1: Hey, everyone, Robert Evans here, and this is the week 2 00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:06,120 Speaker 1: we take off for all of wool Zone Media, so 3 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,440 Speaker 1: we do not put out new episodes this week, so 4 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:11,479 Speaker 1: everyone can actually get a break at the company. Takes 5 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: some time. We've done this before. We decided this year 6 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: that we would actually put out reruns of old episodes, 7 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 1: you know, with little introductions from us that we recorded 8 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:23,600 Speaker 1: more recently. This is largely stuff that we thought should 9 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: have gotten more attention, you know, maybe it came out 10 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: when we were smaller, and we want to put it 11 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: back in front of folks again. So there will be episodes, 12 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 1: you know, reruns of it could happen here, reruns of politics, 13 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 1: runs of everything that we do. And this is the 14 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: rerun of Behind the Bastards. And you know, we love 15 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: talking about guys like Hitler, specifically Hitler over here, you know, 16 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,279 Speaker 1: like like the History Channel of old He's always an 17 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 1: entertaining fellow. And I did an episode a few years 18 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: back back when we were still working out of la 19 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 1: still recording from the studio about his sexuality, right, because 20 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: there's a lot of myths and a lot of just 21 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: like bullshit that comes out about you know, Hitler's relationships 22 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: his romantic life, all that kind of stuff. It's usually 23 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: you know, nonsense that's kind of deliberately exaggerated to try 24 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: and get eyeballs on something in order to, you know, 25 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,320 Speaker 1: for somebody's financial bottom line. So I did a really 26 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: deep dive into like what we know about his actual 27 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 1: sex life, about his actual like how he was as 28 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: a romantic partner, all that good stuff. And it's both 29 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: very different from the story that I think people tend 30 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: to get in popular media, and I think more interesting, 31 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 1: more more useful in understanding the man as a human 32 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,759 Speaker 1: being and like why he was the kind of guy 33 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: that he was. So without further ado, here's how Hitler fucked. 34 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: A serious title that they would not let me actually 35 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: use for these episodes.

There's also a theory that he had 128 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 1: one ball and there was like a song during the 129 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: war Hitler has only got one ball, Goerring has two 130 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: but very small Nana Nana Nana.

Well, although I 172 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 2: think if you were to actually see the titles laid 173 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 2: out in front of you physically, you'd be like. 174 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: Oh, there's things that would be that would be nicer, 175 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: but it would I think it would take a lot 176 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 1: longer to put together episodes. Fair, Okay, Well, the point 177 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: of this is that I tend to be on the 178 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: cutting edge of new Hitler recis in terms of like 179 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: what I'm reading. I'm not doing new Hitler research, but 180 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: I so speaking of that. A couple of days ago, 181 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: I was actively looking for a new Hitler fact to 182 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: just see if any had come out in the last 183 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: couple of months since I'd checked that, and I came 184 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: across an article in The Independent called Hitler was a 185 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: sexually confused serial killer, psychologist claims in new book. So 186 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: that's quite a claim. 187 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 2: So I think you can also probably just say serial killer, 188 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 2: because I think most serial killers have got, you know, 189 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 2: their wires crossed. 190 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean it's interesting the term confused for serial 191 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: killer because I wonder if like a guy like Ted 192 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 1: Bundy probably wouldn't be Like, No, I wasn't confused. I 193 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: just this is what I wanted to do. 194 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah, the confusion came from wherever 195 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 2: the wiring crossed in the first place. Yeah. He's very 196 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 2: matter of fact about Yeah. 197 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: And the book that apparently makes these claims is titled 198 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 1: Hitler Won and Hitler Two, The Sexual No Man's Land. 199 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,199 Speaker 1: It's by a best selling German author and psychiatry christ 200 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: named Vulcar Ellis Pilgrim. 201 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 2: And is that like a new like it's a very 202 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 2: dark cat in the hat Hitler one and Hitler two. Ye, 203 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 2: the cat and the hat go and they. 204 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: Just Hitler won and Hitler two. Yeah, they can do 205 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: anything anything. Oh no, don't do the. 206 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 2: Sun and rad It's a white supremacist parody right there. 207 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. Yeah, some some Nazi listening in is 208 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: already hard at work on that. 209 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 2: Not the Doctor SEUs version. 210 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:32,719 Speaker 1: I haven't gotten to read that book because it's only 211 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: in German and I do not read German, which is 212 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 1: almost the title of a great podcast. There's a podcast 213 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: called I Don't Speak German about the alt right that 214 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: people should listen to if they want. It's kind of 215 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: like my show, but way more focused on that one 216 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: narrow group of people. Great podcasts anyway, I don't read German. Yeah, 217 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,079 Speaker 1: I don't read German. Podcast is called I don't Speak German. 218 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: Cool Anyway. I couldn't find the book, but I did 219 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: find some claims that are in the book In this article, 220 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 1: Hitler was a Adolf Hitler was a actually confused serial 221 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,439 Speaker 1: killer whose violence was driven by lust. In his new book, 222 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 1: mister Volker claims the Nazi leader had an orgasm while 223 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: watching a film in which Austrian soldiers massacre French troops. 224 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: Now this kind of story is a treat for me 225 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: because I'd never heard of this particular Hitler story before. 226 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: I'm always I'm always looking out for some new h facts. 227 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: So quote, he quotes Mary Anne Hopp, an actress who 228 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: was an acquaintance of Hitler, describing a time that she went 229 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: to the cinema in the Dictator's Berlin palace to watch 230 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 1: a film called The Rebel. It featured Austrian troops hurling 231 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: boulders from a mountain onto the French below. Hitler got 232 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: some kind of thrill and rubbed his knees at this 233 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: event as the stones rolled down on the French and groaned. 234 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if he was crazy, but he got 235 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 1: some kind of orgasm. She said, I wanted to leave 236 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: during the show. The man was creepy. 237 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. People gave pee Wee Herman a hard time. 238 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 1: People gave Pee Wee Herman a hard time. You know 239 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,719 Speaker 1: Hitler in perspective. 240 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you compare the two pee we should get 241 00:10:58,520 --> 00:10:58,959 Speaker 2: the statue. 242 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: I feel like Pee Wee should have just left to 243 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: masturbate in that theater. But that's what that theater was for. 244 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: It's what the theater was for its not like he 245 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: was showing up at the cinemark to like showing anyway. Yeah, yeah, 246 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: I'd been unable to yeah, find an English translation. But 247 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: in this article mister would apparently talk to the author. 248 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: Pilgrim talks about how he suspects there's a connection between 249 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 1: sexuality and violence and Hitler, and that his sexual excitement 250 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: at the thought of violence gave him the desire to 251 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: force men into killing. He says, however, since this lust 252 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: for killing is the decisive feature of serial killers, the 253 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: question inevitably arises. Was Hitler a serial killer who murdered 254 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 1: for the purpose of his gratification? Hitler's sexuality, I believe 255 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: drove the dictator into the most colossal annihilation that man 256 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: has witnessed. Now that's that's this guy's claims and uh, 257 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: interesting premise. I can see why a lot of people 258 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: would want to believe that. Yeah. Mister Pilgrim also speculates 259 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,199 Speaker 1: about Hitler's sex life, claiming he abstained from sexual relations 260 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: with his mistress and then wife, Eva Brown. Now this 261 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: all sounds I think to a lot of people. They 262 00:11:57,920 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: might read this and be like, Okay, well this seems 263 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 1: you know, of course, he was crazy. Maybe that makes 264 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 1: him he was just a serial killer who wound up 265 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 1: in charge of the country. Yeah, I get why people 266 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 1: would want to believe that. I think what most people 267 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: looking at that wouldn't dig into is kind of where 268 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: the guy is basing his claims on. And most of 269 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: them come from a dude called Ernst han Stangle. Another 270 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 1: nickname was Putsi, and Ernst was a classic classic Putsy. 271 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: Ernst was a friend of Hitler's back in the day 272 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: who then started hating him. 273 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,559 Speaker 2: And I'm sure that happened with a lot of Hitler's friend. 274 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: That happened were not great at keeping friends, not super 275 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: good at friends. 276 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 2: I'll be like, oh God, just do I have to 277 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 2: answer keep answering this call. 278 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: I think that might surprise a lot of people. Not 279 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: a good friend, yeah, not dictators in general. Not great friends, 280 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:42,439 Speaker 1: no not. 281 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 2: They just take and they take and they take. 282 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: They take and they take and they take. Some of 283 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: them are fun to drink with, yeah, once or twice. 284 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 285 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: Like, if I could go back in time and just 286 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: see Stalin and all of his buddies, how drunk they, 287 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: of course I would want to try. I wouldn't want 288 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 1: to be drunk around Hitler. No, but Hitler didn't get drunk. 289 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: He was a teetotler, right, he was a t totally yeah. 290 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 1: I mean he was on meth a lot, but that 291 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: was a doctor giving it to him. 292 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, so he yeah, so he thought that he was 293 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 2: being medicated. 294 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 1: He thought that, and that was you know that when 295 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 1: we talk about that, and there's a great book called 296 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 1: Blitz about that. Well, I'm sure we'll talk about it someday, 297 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: but like that was mostly later in the war, during 298 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 1: his rise to power. He's sober, Like every now and 299 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:18,839 Speaker 1: then you'll hear a story of him drinking like part 300 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: of a glass of champagne. But he was like yeah, yeah, 301 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: which is you know, control freaks and whatnot. So I 302 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: get the the desire to like psycho analyze Hitler, but 303 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 1: going to Homstangle for like advice, because hams Stangle has 304 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 1: a long time been claiming that Hitler was basically a newter, 305 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: was like couldn't get off. Yah, yeah, it had like 306 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: no sexual life. Yeah. 307 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 2: Well, and that is a thing with a lot of 308 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 2: seri killers, where like they just can't come until they 309 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 2: find the thing that makes them right. 310 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. That and if you think of Hitler as a 311 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: serial killer. A lot of this stuff makes sense. But 312 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: I think what most people don't realize when they hear 313 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,199 Speaker 1: stories like this about every year or two, there will 314 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 1: be a new rash of Hitler's sex life stories that yeah, 315 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: little hit like kind of shadier but not entirely bullshit 316 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: outlets and stuff, and then every now and then someone 317 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: like The New York will give it a write up 318 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 1: or whatnot. None of this is new in the field 319 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: of hitlerology. And in fact, like all of these claims, 320 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 1: any claim that you like read about and like a 321 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: modern paper about, like Hitler liking to poop on people, 322 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: or the possibility that Hitler was gay, all that stuff 323 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: was kicking around in the nineteen thirties. Yeah, so there's 324 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 1: a lot of myths around this guy. And so what 325 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: I want to kind of do today is first give 326 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: kind of an overview of the myths that people are 327 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 1: still telling about Hitler and kind of the latest couple 328 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 1: of waves of this, and then we're gonna do a 329 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: really deep dive into his whole sexual history, his relationships, 330 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 1: everything that there is about him in like reputable like scholarship. 331 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 2: So jeez, so if you and Hitler matched on tender 332 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 2: and you wanted to google him to find out what 333 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 2: was really going on. This would be the episode to 334 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 2: listen to. 335 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: This would be the episode to listen to. And spoiler alert, 336 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: don't date Hitler. No, don't date Hitler, No, don't Probably 337 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: not going to go well. Yeah. So, back in like 338 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 1: March of twenty sixteen, I came across an article in 339 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: the Daily Star with the title Adolf Hitler was gay 340 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 1: and loved teenage boys. CIA files claim. There was also 341 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: a New York Post article around the same time with 342 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: the title Adolf Hitler had a truly discussing sexual fetish. 343 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 1: It's equally emblematic of like those types of articles. Yeah, 344 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 1: these were all like spring of twenty sixteen wave articles, 345 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: and they were all based on a dossier the OSS, 346 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: which is like a precursor of the CIA put together 347 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: quote from the New York Post. The Nazi leader's bedroom 348 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: habits included a love of Pooh sex, claims the dossier 349 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: from the office of Yeah, so. 350 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 2: Which is was shit not dressing up like Winnie. 351 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: The Pooh, not dressing up like Winnie the Pooh and 352 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: looking for honey. Yeah. The intelligence document says that he 353 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: liked women to stand over him and defecate because he 354 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: was turned on by Pooh. This is the New York 355 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: Post keeps using the word pooh instead of feces, which 356 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 1: just doesn't seem like great journalism. It also revealed the 357 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: fur had a micro penis, and, as the famous song suggests, 358 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: only one test. It also revealed he liked to be 359 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: brutally kicked by women as part of his sex games. 360 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: So again, this is always presented whenever it comes up 361 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: in the media. Is new. This is all older than 362 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: your grandparents. 363 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, this has been around forever. 364 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: It's been around forever. 365 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. 366 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: This is Yeah. So the root of most of the 367 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: salacious Hitler fuck myths is that infamous oss report titled 368 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: The Mind of Adolf Hitler, was compiled by a doctor 369 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: named Langer and was initially a secret thing that was 370 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 1: written up as a brief for FDR at the start 371 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 1: of World War Two. It's based on a lot of 372 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: interviews and original documents and the source book behind the paper, 373 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: which is like all of the raw sources that they 374 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: compiled to write This is a gold mine of info. 375 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: But we should be really critical about the dossier itself. 376 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: It has to be taken with as much salt as 377 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: you'd prescribe something written by a psychologist in the nineteen forties, 378 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 1: because it's filled with really debatable conclusions based on bad 379 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: psychoanalytic theory. I'm going to read you one excerpt where 380 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: doctor Langer tries to explain why Hitler always carried around 381 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: a whip as a young man. Quote. Anyone who has 382 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: ever seeing Hitler talking in a bashful and puerile way 383 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 1: to a woman would easily be led to believe that 384 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,199 Speaker 1: in marriage he would be the underdog. But that is 385 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 1: manifestly wrong. It would seem that the whip plays some 386 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 1: mysterious role in his relationship to women. In doctor Sedgwick's opinion, 387 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: during the almost fifteen years of association with Hitler, the 388 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: whip with which Hitler loves to gesticulate figures as a 389 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: kind of substitute or auxiliary symbol for his missing sexual potency. 390 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: All this wielding of the whip seems to be connected 391 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 1: with a hidden desire on the part of Hitler for 392 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 1: some state of erection which would overcome his fundamental sexual 393 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 1: inferiority complex. The truth is that Hitler is, in all probabilities, 394 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 1: still in the stage of puberty and still in the 395 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: essential meaning of the word a virgin. 396 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 2: I want to take that guy to a renfest. Yeah, 397 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 2: just take a look around. 398 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 1: What do you make of this? 399 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you think is going on here? 400 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: And when he references doctor Sedgwick, that's Hans Schnangle. Yeah, 401 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: so this is again all based on that guy. A 402 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 1: lot of this is based on that guy stuff. But 403 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: like Hitler, Hitler was definitely not a virgin in nineteen 404 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: forty two. 405 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no whip for sure. How old was 406 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,239 Speaker 2: he when he into World War One? Do you know? 407 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,679 Speaker 1: Because he was in his mid twenties. He was in 408 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: the trenches the whole time. 409 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, okay, I gotcha. So probably not even a 410 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 2: virgin at that point. 411 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 1: It's debatable. We'll get into that a little bit. So. Uh, 412 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 1: just as we kind of criticized that whips were really 413 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: common among German fascists to be used as weapons and 414 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 1: street fights at this time, and Hitler used his whip 415 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 1: in street fights a lot. He also used it to 416 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 1: flirt with girls a lot. So we'll talk about that some. 417 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 2: I that's pretty cool. 418 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: It was pretty hardcore, like. 419 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 2: The idea of like a drive by whipping back of 420 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 2: the day. 421 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: It was more like a bunch of guys they would 422 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: give speeches in these like beer halls because it's a 423 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: big thing in German culture, and like a bunch of 424 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: anti fascists would crowd around them, and like they would 425 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: start throwing bottles and fighting, and like fucking Hitler would 426 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: pull out his whip and start like swinging whips and 427 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: people and stuff. And you can fuck a dude up 428 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 1: with Yeah, you can decent with it. 429 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 2: Holy shit. 430 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: It's a good weapon if you're gonna like beat on 431 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: somebody in a bar. Yeah, And it worked for that purpose. 432 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 2: And give Antifa all the whips now. 433 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean they take a lot of training, 434 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 1: but yeaheah, yeah yeah. I like Indiana Jones reclaiming the 435 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 1: whip for the not fascist side of things. 436 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 2: Appreciate that I've never heard the Hitler whip thing. 437 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,719 Speaker 1: Hitler loved Whitz. You're going to be hearing a lot 438 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:15,239 Speaker 1: about Hitler's whip today. Yeah. So, anyway, because of all 439 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 1: of this misinformation, because of all of these like conclusions 440 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: that people still tried out based on like fucking nineteen 441 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: forty psychoanalytic theory, I have gone through two different Hitler biographies, 442 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 1: the ones I considered probably the two best, John Totlan's 443 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 1: and Ian Kershaw's, as well as a great book called 444 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 1: Explaining Hitler. That's like a synthesis of a bunch of 445 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: different biographies, and I've tried to present what I think 446 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: is the most complete picture of the verifiable facts of 447 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 1: Hitler's sex life. So, anyway, if we're going to understand 448 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: how Hitler fucked and how people talk about how Hitler fucked, 449 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: we have to start with Hitler's sexual prehistory. What we 450 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: know about how his dad fucked. Oh, or to be 451 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,679 Speaker 1: more precise, who his dad fucked? 452 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 2: Ooh, well, his mom at. 453 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: Least definitely his mom, that's a given. 454 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 2: At least at least twice, right, because he had a sister, 455 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 2: you younger sister. 456 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 1: Or something, right, Yeah, I think she was a half sister. 457 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,159 Speaker 1: You know, I don't remember that off the top of 458 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: my head. His genealogy is very complicated. 459 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, so there was a younger girl. There was a 460 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 2: girl in a room in his house. 461 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: Girl. Yeah, Paula Hitler. He had a sister, and he 462 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: actually like one of the nice things Hitler did in 463 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: his life is that, as a younger man, he gave 464 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: her his inheritance and like wound up kind of on 465 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: the street as a result of that because she had 466 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:29,679 Speaker 1: a kid and stuff. 467 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 2: Got it okay. 468 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: So one thing we leave out a lot when we 469 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 1: talk about Hitler's rise to power is the army of 470 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: crusading journalists who fought a desperate battle to stop him 471 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 1: from taking control. They failed, obviously, and a lot of 472 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: them died. But for a while, their investigation scared Hitler 473 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,639 Speaker 1: more than anything. He was frightened that his family history 474 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: would be exposed. When he learned about one of the 475 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 1: first of these investigations, he allegedly told a party member, 476 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 1: people must not know who I am. They must not 477 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: know where I come from. WHOA Now. There are a 478 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 1: lot of different rumors as to why. The most salacious 479 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: rumors that Hitler secretly had a Jewish background. We don't 480 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,400 Speaker 1: know for certain who his father's father was. His grandmother, 481 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: Maria Schickelgruber, was a forty two year old, unmarried serving 482 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: woman when she gave birth to his father, A Lois 483 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: in eighteen thirty six. Some legends say a wealthy Jewish 484 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: man or a nobleman impregnated her. We don't know. The 485 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: Church she was baptized in and the entire town where 486 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 1: she was born, Dollarsheim, was obliterated by German artillery, probably 487 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 1: on Hitler's orders in order to conceal his background, which 488 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: is serious warlord. Move right there, Yeah, I'll give it 489 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: to you. 490 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 2: Erase the skel rovers, yeah yeah, get rid of that shit, Grandma. 491 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: One of those things. One of those few places you'll catch, 492 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: like a lot of really serious historians speculating, is like, 493 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: would it have even been possible for a guy with 494 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: the last name Schickel Gruber to have done the things 495 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: that Hitler did, because it was kind of like chance 496 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: that he wound up with the last name Hitler, like 497 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 1: his dad adopted it from another guy who probably wasn't 498 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: his dad. It's a messy case. Heidler was the original name, 499 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 1: and then they changed it to Hitler. I say, okay, 500 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 1: and I have trouble imagining Hyle Schickel Grueber. 501 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,199 Speaker 2: No, because people will keep stumbling over it. 502 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, Chicl Gruber. It'd be like if Google had if 503 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 1: their name had been like question, ask, yeah, exactly, it 504 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: just probably wouldn't have worked as well. 505 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 2: No, No, no, it definitely would not. 506 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, So historians debate over the exact nature of the 507 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 1: genealogy further back than Hitler's dad, but the dad was 508 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 1: a bastard that at least maybe we don't even know 509 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: that much. All of this is still debated. The odds 510 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: that Hitler was ashamed of a secret Jewish person in 511 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 1: his past, though, are lower than the odds that he 512 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,679 Speaker 1: was just worried people would find out his dad was gross. 513 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: Alois Hitler was a mid level customs official in brown Ow, Austria. 514 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: He'd been respected in the local community, but his middle 515 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: management image belied the reality of a man who repeatedly 516 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:52,160 Speaker 1: married children. Alois's cool swere it is? 517 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 2: So it's wondering when pedophiles are going to be a 518 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 2: part of the story. 519 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: They will be a part of this story all the 520 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: way through. Well, great, nazi'sn't gross sexuals wo wow. Yeah, 521 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: everybody focuses on the possibility that there was pooh sex. 522 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: The stuff that we know is so much grosser than pooping, 523 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: Like that's whatever. People who are perfectly fine can enjoy 524 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 1: that sort of thing. What we're talking about with Hitler 525 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 1: and his dad, both cases fucked up objectively. 526 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, you can, you can have consensual pooh sex whatever, 527 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 2: it's whatever. 528 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 1: Just clean your own sheets, clean your own sheets, or 529 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: pay your cleaning lady incredibly. Well, yes, you know, I'm 530 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 1: sure there's some people who take that job. So Alois's 531 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 1: first wife was much much older than him, and she 532 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: died after a few years of marriage. Some of the 533 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: rumors or that he married her for her money, which whatever. 534 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 1: While Alois was married, but while his first wife was sick, 535 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: he moved a sixteen year old girl into their home 536 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: to be his serving maid. This girl, Clara, was his niece. 537 00:23:53,320 --> 00:24:00,160 Speaker 1: Now cool cool a loser now. John Toland, who's one 538 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: of the preminent Hitler biographers of all times, says that 539 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,720 Speaker 1: Clara was hot, quote with abundant dark hair. He claims 540 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 1: that she was quote installed with the Hitler's at an 541 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: end where Aloys was already carrying on an affair with 542 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: the kitchen maid Francisca. So, when Alois's first wife is alive, 543 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 1: he's got this sixteen year old niece who he's hitting on, 544 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 1: and also this like seventeen year old kitchen maid named Francisca, 545 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 1: both of whom he's like starting up a thing with 546 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: while his first wife is alive and dying, so when 547 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 1: his first wife died, Alois got her money and married Francisca. 548 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: I'm going to quote now from the fantastic book explaining Hitler. 549 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 1: After his first wife died, developments in the Alois Hitler 550 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 1: household began to take on the appearance of a maimed 551 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 1: French farce. After a period of living conjugally but without 552 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 1: the benefit of clergy and with the kitchen maid, while 553 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 1: simultaneously enjoying the services of the even younger maid and niece, Clara, 554 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 1: he married the older one. 555 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 2: Well, good for. 556 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: Him, Good for him picking that seventeen year old, not 557 00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 1: the sixteen year old. I guess how old is he 558 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: at this point? He is in his forties now. According 559 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 1: to John Toland, Francisca was quote only too aware of 560 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: how tempting a pretty maid could be to the success 561 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: to the susceptible Alois. After the wedding, the first thing 562 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 1: she did was get rid of Clara. Luckily, for Alois, 563 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,360 Speaker 1: his second wife soon died, allowing him to finally realize 564 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: his true dream of marrying his teenage niece. 565 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 2: Wow, do you know how how did Francesca? 566 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: It was cancer? It was a lot of cancer. In 567 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 1: the Hitler family tree. He was kind of scared about 568 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 1: his whole enough not enough, not enough cancer among the Hitlers. 569 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:32,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. 570 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,880 Speaker 1: Some juvenile leukemia would have really dealt with some problems 571 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: for the world would be pretty great. Not often I 572 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 1: stand for juvenile leukemia, but for Hitler. 573 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:44,399 Speaker 2: Get up in them bones. 574 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 1: Get up in them bones. Oh so uh. The only 575 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,439 Speaker 1: thing getting in the way of Alois Hitler and his 576 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 1: true love with his teenage niece was the fact that 577 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 1: they were very close relatives. They officially share the same 578 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: grand uncle, Johann George Heidler. Now, even in the late 579 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: eighteen hundreds, marrying your teenage niece was sort of frowned upon. 580 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I did see that. 581 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 1: This is not one of those things where, no, it 582 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,879 Speaker 1: was normal at the time, everybody's marrying their sixteen year 583 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 1: old serving girl niece. No, alloys had to get special 584 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: dispensation from the pope to marry and continue fucking his niece. 585 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: He wanted to fuck his niece so bad he got 586 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: pappal approval. Oh my god, that's that's Hitler's dad. 587 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 2: Just dear Pope, dear. 588 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: Pope, I got my niece. You gotta see this girl. 589 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, let me send you a couple of pictures. 590 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 1: I drew some creatures. 591 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, just because you chose to be a celibate, it 592 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 2: doesn't mean I need to be a celibate. And I'd 593 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 2: like to break that with a child with. 594 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: A child related to, related to and kind of morally 595 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 1: responsible to. 596 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 2: Can I give a thumb Can I get a thumbs up? 597 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: Thumbs up? Thumbs down? What's Catholicism say? And the pope 598 00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,879 Speaker 1: just said go for it, go for it. Yeahler's dad 599 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 1: had every official papal permission to fuck his niece. 600 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 2: All popes are great? Anything wrong? 601 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 1: What a great thing to exist a pope? Cool? 602 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 2: Hitler's Catholic? 603 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean Hitler didn't really give a shit. Well, 604 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: I mean he was a Hitlerist. 605 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I like technically I guess on on the 606 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 2: on paper. 607 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. And at that point in Austria, you're not gonna 608 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: not you got to be straight with the Catholic Church. Yeah, 609 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: it's Austria. It's Austrian in the late eighteen hundreds. 610 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 2: How did this guy not get like the sin guilt 611 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 2: ship worked into him? 612 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: I mean he might have. I assumed there were a lot. 613 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: I assume there was talk. I assume people were like, 614 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: it's kind of fucked up, right. 615 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I feel so bad about sucking my niece child. 616 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 1: Well, I don't know if he did, but I'm gonna 617 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess people in town there were some like 618 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: but you know, those people all died of typhus, you know, 619 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 1: so we don't know what they were talking about. Not enough, 620 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: just give you all the Austrians, okay, So to make 621 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: things even creepier. According to Ron Rosenbaum's explaining Hitler quote, 622 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 1: even after the Vatican granted the dispensation, Clara continued to 623 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: call her new husband what she called him when she 624 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 1: was still his maid mistress uncle. So Hitler's mom called 625 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 1: his dad uncle the whole time Hitler was a kid. 626 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 2: That's worse than when parents call each other mother and father. 627 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's grosser. Then that's like Mike Pince shit on 628 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: another one. 629 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, my uncle. 630 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gross. It's really gross, it's really nasty. Yeah, 631 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: this is the relationship Adolf Hitler was born into. So 632 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say in fairness to Hitler, because you 633 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: don't give Hitler credit for anything because he's Hitler. Yeah, 634 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 1: but as a baby, that's a rough situation to land in. 635 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, Also, this is some classic uncle bullshit. 636 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, you always got a. 637 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 2: Good uncle on a bad on. It's always liked when 638 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 2: you got a bad uncle. It's nothing worse than a 639 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 2: bad uncle. 640 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: Hitler's dad was like the platonic ideal of a bad uncle, like. 641 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 2: The uncle that everyone's like, can he not come here? 642 00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: And he can maynot have him around? 643 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 2: Please, it's just cut that uncle out of everything. 644 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: Okay. So, uh, Hitler's dad marries two women that Uh 645 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 1: Hitler biographer Ian Kershaw describes as young enough to be 646 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: his children. As a dad, he's remembered generally as a 647 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: strict authoritarian figure, but most people who knew the family 648 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: when his dad was alive say that Alois wasn't, you know, 649 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 1: particularly violent or bad by the standards of the time 650 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: towards his kid or his wife. We would probably almost 651 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: certainly call the discipline that Hitler endured child abuse today, 652 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: but it was not out of the norm for the area, 653 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: and most of the boys in Austria who grew up 654 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: around Hitler didn't grow up to be Hitler. So you 655 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: don't want to put too much influence on the fact 656 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 1: that his dad was an authoritarian. But a lot of 657 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: the boys around Hitler did grow up to be Nazis, 658 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: so let's not discount the impact of authoritarian parenting either. 659 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but it's probably not what we're looking for 660 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 1: for looking for the whole reason Hitler went all crazy, 661 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: the fact that his dad hit him sometimes. 662 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, it's like, that's not going to be that 663 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 2: doesn't that's a real age. 664 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: Z Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. You're you're leaving out some 665 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: stuff if you if you drop it down to that 666 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 1: uncle father, my uncle father, uncle, my uncle daddy, Jesus 667 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: oh Hitler. 668 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 2: Uh. 669 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: So we're gonna dig into Hitler as a young man 670 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 1: in his early love affairs. Great and spoilers. They're as 671 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: creepy as everything else in this podcast is gonna be. 672 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: I'm not surprised if you thought Hitler the dad was bad. 673 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 2: No, Yeah, there's no way like Hitler Adolph is like 674 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 2: a lothario coming from this place at all. 675 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: No, what's surprising is how much like Elliott Roger he is. 676 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 2: Oh, I'm not surprised by that. Fucking losersss God. 677 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: And of course that is the overwhelming thing that you 678 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: say to yourself when you get into some real deep 679 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: study of the Nazis is these fucking losers. 680 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 2: All you can say fucking losers. 681 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 1: You know who's not losers though, Brandy? Who the wonderful 682 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: sponsors who support this show and or program with their 683 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: products and or services and or add petro dollar, add money. 684 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: I'm spinning out of control here. Products We're back, boy. 685 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 2: Love those products. 686 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: Hate Hitler exactly, And there's nothing that's a squeegey for 687 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 1: your brain as well as a solid product or just 688 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: a nice service, especially on like a hot Hitler ful day. 689 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 2: Just like being told the possibilities. 690 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: The possibilities, you know what. Nazis didn't like possibilities, of 691 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: course not, but that's what you get with products and 692 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 1: services as possibilities. Yes, a lot of good economic discourse 693 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: coming out of this episode. We should write a book. 694 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 2: Let's write another Hitler book. 695 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 1: There enough there, there should be a couple more Hitler books. Okay, 696 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: so most of our what. 697 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 2: Hitler think about square space? 698 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: Why would Hitler think about square space? 699 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 2: I don't like the free speech of the internet. 700 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: You know, I hate to say this because it's what 701 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 1: I do to make my living. But Hitler would a 702 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 1: thousand percent be a podcaster if he were around the day. 703 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 2: Absolutely. 704 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 1: I mean, he like wrote at length about how the 705 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 1: best way, the only real way to convince anyone of 706 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: anything was with the human voice. Yeah, and like the 707 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 1: power of like radio to isolate someone with a voice 708 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 1: and to really influence their thought, which is one of 709 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 1: the things that scares me about the podcast era. But 710 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 1: we're getting. 711 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 2: A whole supper converse. Yeah, he would be like an 712 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 2: Alex Jones type, but like with his own show. 713 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, but like, yeah, he would be a lot more 714 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: popular than Alex ja. Yeah he would because I don't 715 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:35,120 Speaker 1: think Alex has a problem saying the quiet part's loud, 716 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 1: and Hitler was, up until the point where he took power, 717 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 1: usually pretty good about quietly saying the loud parts. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 718 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: I mean that's why he won. 719 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. 720 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. So most of our evidence for young Hitler's early 721 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: love affairs comes from a dude named August Kubazek. Now. 722 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: Kubazek is a heavily debated figure amongst Hitler scholars. He 723 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: wrote a book about his childhood with Hitler after the war. 724 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: It apparently started during the Third Reich as a pro 725 00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 1: Hitler like Nazi biography, and then after the war, he 726 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 1: was like, well, I mean, I've already got this stuff down. 727 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 1: People are gonna want to know what Hitler was like 728 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: as a kid, so I'm gonna write this book. Some 729 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: of what he says is definitely either a lie or 730 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 1: stretching the truth. There's a lot of debate over how 731 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: much to trust him, but it's also incontrovertible that he 732 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 1: grew up with Hitler, that he was Hitler's really only 733 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:22,719 Speaker 1: friend as a kid, and that they lived together. They 734 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 1: were essentially like freshman college roommates in the big city. 735 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: Like so he no one else has this perspective. So 736 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: kubaz X's book is an irreplaceable source for the early 737 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 1: years of Hitler's life. You can't under like you have 738 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 1: to be critically read him. You have to read him. 739 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: I've read kubaz X's book, of course, and it's really interesting. 740 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: If you do take it well, I would recommend reading 741 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: like a John Toland or an Ian Kershaw biography first 742 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: and then go into kubaz X so you've got some 743 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: sort of context for it. I'm going to be quoting 744 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 1: from all three of these sources in the next little 745 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 1: bit here, because it provides a good synthesis, and I 746 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: trust those guys to separate probable truth from probable live 747 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: better than I trust myself, because they're elderly Hitler scholars 748 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: and I'm just a Hitler nerd Anyway, Kubazek recalls exactly 749 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: one romantic focus for Hitler in his young years, a 750 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: girl named Stephanie who lived in Lynz. That was the 751 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 1: small town that he grew up in. Now. Hitler was 752 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 1: madly in love with Stephanie, and we have no evidence 753 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 1: that she ever knew anything about him. In fact, later 754 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 1: in life after the war, when she was told that 755 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: Adolf Hitler had been in love with her, she was 756 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: shocked and horrified, which is it's a dick move to 757 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 1: tell any what that Yeah, oh man, what. 758 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 2: A bummer, because you're just like, am I responsible for you? Like? 759 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 1: You get through this horrible war. She was an austri 760 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 1: She saw some shit. It would have been a nightmare 761 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 1: for anyone living in that region. You get through this 762 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: horrible war, and then like years later, someone's like, by 763 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 1: the way, Hitler wanted to fuck you? 764 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:47,439 Speaker 2: What would you ever tell anybody that process that baby 765 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 2: Hitler popping boners to you? Don't tell her that yeah, 766 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 2: because then that just makes you just rethink everything. 767 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 1: About is this my fault? No, Stephanie, you didn't definitely not. 768 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 1: You didn't do anything wrong. I mean, you've been dead 769 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 1: for decades, but you seem fine. 770 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 2: You're listening somewhere. 771 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, we get a medium. 772 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 2: You should be doing this podcast with a medium to 773 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:11,840 Speaker 2: contact some of these people and be like, hey, it's okay. 774 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's gonna be fine. Yeah. That's actually similar 775 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 1: to another podcast idea I have, which is using a 776 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,839 Speaker 1: medium to sexually harass dead bastards. I really just want 777 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: to like see how uncomfortable I can make chairman now. 778 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, like really really get in there and 779 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 1: like Locke his ghost in a room. Yes, yeah, see 780 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 1: where it goes. 781 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 2: I am on board for that. 782 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: I think we all are. So if you want to, 783 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,839 Speaker 1: So Hitler was in love with this girl who knew 784 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 1: nothing about him. He became convinced. And this is while 785 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 1: they're in like elementary school essentially like early high school era, 786 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 1: that kind of thing. Like he's a teenager, young teenager. 787 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 1: So during this, oh yeah, I was. 788 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 2: In marching band. I had one of these kids know 789 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 2: exactly who this is. 790 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a woman I've met who 791 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 1: didn't have one of these kids in they're life. That's 792 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 1: one of the ski Yeah. Anyway, so Hitler became convinced 793 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 1: that Stephanie was sending him secret signals and messages only 794 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: he could see, and he would yeah, yeah, they were 795 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 1: destined to be together. He would rant about all this 796 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 1: to Kubazek, and Kubazek claims he was pretty like questioning 797 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: of all this stuff to Hitler, but like only to 798 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,839 Speaker 1: an extent. Kubazeck did try to convince Hitler that if 799 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 1: he needed to at least talk to this girl, if 800 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 1: there's gonna be any hope of her liking him, at 801 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 1: the very least, he suggested that Hitler should learn to dance, 802 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 1: because he knew that Stephanie liked dancing, which is like 803 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: solid advice, like, okay, get interested in something this girl's 804 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 1: interested in, have a similar interest. Pretty solid advice today. 805 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,280 Speaker 1: So here's Kubazek quote, all this is no good, adolph 806 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 1: I replied, Stephanie is fond of dancing. If you want 807 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: to conquer her, you will have to dance around just 808 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: as aimlessly and idiotically as the others. That was all 809 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 1: that was needed to set him off raving. No, no, never, 810 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: he screamed at me, I shall never dance. Do you 811 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:57,800 Speaker 1: understand Stephanie only dances because she is forced to by society, 812 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 1: on which she unfortunately depends. Once she is my wife, 813 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 1: she won't have the slightest desire to dance. That is 814 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:08,280 Speaker 1: and Kopa's X books a generally pretty pro Hitler book, 815 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: Like not pro the stuff Hitler did is like he's 816 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 1: obviously against the third Reich, but like he presents a 817 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 1: sympathetic view of Hitler.

Oh boy? What are the good songs? 833 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 1: They always they always get it right, So exactly obvious. 834 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 2: Actually about Hitler. 835 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,359 Speaker 1: It is about all music is about Hitler, one way 836 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 1: or the other. YEP, that's my theory. We'll talk about 837 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:22,320 Speaker 1: Toto's Africa. It's it's a it's a stretch. But I'll 838 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,320 Speaker 1: get you there now, I get I got a diagram, 839 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 1: I got a diagram. It's about the desert fox. And now, obviously, 840 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 1: waiting around and being an insane person did not woo Stephanie. Gradually, 841 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 1: Hitler started to realize that she wasn't going to fall 842 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: to him. According to Koubazak, Hitler reacted like you'd expect 843 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:43,320 Speaker 1: a modern day insult to react with threats of violence. 844 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: Of course, quote Stephanie was at that time in an 845 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,279 Speaker 1: unfriendly mood. She would pass the basically nearby road with 846 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:51,680 Speaker 1: her face averted, as though Hitler did not exist at all. 847 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:53,759 Speaker 1: This bought brought him to the verge of despair. I 848 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 1: can't stand it any longer, he exclaimed. I will make 849 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 1: an end of it. It was the first and as 850 00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,759 Speaker 1: far as I know, the last time that Adolf contemplated 851 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,759 Speaker 1: suite A side seriously. It was not. He would jump 852 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: into the river from the Danube Bridge, he told me, 853 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 1: and then it would be over and done with. But 854 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,480 Speaker 1: Stephanie would have to die with him. He insisted on that. 855 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:12,280 Speaker 1: Once more, a plan was thought up in all its details. 856 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 1: Every single phase of the horrifying tragedy was minutely described, 857 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,920 Speaker 1: including the part I would have to play. Even my 858 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,759 Speaker 1: conduct of this as the sole survivor was ordained. The 859 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 1: somber scene was with me even in my dreams. 860 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:29,319 Speaker 2: Young Hitler, oh God, just the most emo little shit want. 861 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,959 Speaker 1: To kill himself and a girl he doesn't know him. God, 862 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 1: had he even talked to her at this point, well, 863 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 1: as far as we know they he never said a 864 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: word to her. 865 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:42,479 Speaker 2: Oh my god. I just you can't hate him more. 866 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 2: But you find new depths. 867 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: You find new depths of Yeah, like, yeah, Hitler, oh. 868 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 2: Here's a new cavity of hate haven't filled for you. 869 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:56,719 Speaker 1: I didn't expect this fucking loser so out you know. 870 00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:58,879 Speaker 2: That he's a loser.

She was sort of a 889 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:44,240 Speaker 1: doting mom. So was that Clara, Yeah, Clara Hitler, Clara Hitler, Yeah, 890 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:46,760 Speaker 1: yeah Hitler.

Yeah, So outside of his obsession with Stephanie kubaz 895 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:00,840 Speaker 1: X says he doesn't know if any individual women in 896 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:03,319 Speaker 1: Hitler's life in this period, certainly no one he might 897 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 1: have fucked. When they became young adults and moved to 898 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:09,440 Speaker 1: Vienna together, Hitler remained unlate. Here's John Toland's coverage of 899 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:13,759 Speaker 1: Kubuzek's recollection quote. On promenades, girls and women would often 900 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 1: slightly glance at them. At first, Kubazek thought their interest 901 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 1: was directed to him, but it soon became apparent that 902 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 1: the reserved Adolph was the object. He coldly ignored their 903 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: silent invitations if the two did nothing about sex. They 904 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:27,560 Speaker 1: spent hours at night discussing women, love and marriage, with Adolph, 905 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 1: as usual, dominating the conversation. Over and over. He insisted 906 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,880 Speaker 1: that he must keep the flame of life pure. That is, 907 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,879 Speaker 1: he believed, in accordance with his Catholic upbringing, a man 908 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: and a woman should keep themselves chaste in body and 909 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 1: soul until Mary's and just thus be worthy of producing 910 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,440 Speaker 1: healthy children for the nation. But the dark side of 911 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 1: sex also haunted him, and he talked by the hour 912 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 1: about depraved sexual customs. He railed against prostitution, condemning not 913 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 1: only the whoors and their customers, but society. His condemnation 914 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 1: approached obsession, and one night, after attending a performance of 915 00:41:56,920 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 1: Weddikin's Spring Awakening, he took Gustell's arm and said, we 916 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:03,439 Speaker 1: must see the sink of iniquity. Once they turned down 917 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:06,719 Speaker 1: a small, dark alley it was the Spittelberg Gusa, and 918 00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:09,160 Speaker 1: walked past a row of small hostels so brightly lit 919 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 1: that they could see the girls inside in their scanty 920 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 1: and slovenly attire. They sat there, recalled Kubazek, making up 921 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 1: their faces and combing their hair and looking at themselves 922 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,279 Speaker 1: in the mirror, without, however, for one moment, losing sight 923 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 1: of the men strolling by. Occasionally a man would stop 924 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 1: in front of a house converse with a girl, and 925 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 1: the light would go out. When the two youths reached 926 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 1: the end of the alley, Adolf maneuvered them in an 927 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: about face, and they took another long look at the 928 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 1: appalling site. Back in their room, Adolf went into a 929 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 1: lengthy tirade on the evils of prostitution, with quote a 930 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 1: cold objectivity, as though it were a question of his 931 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:42,280 Speaker 1: attitude towards the fight against tuberculosis or towards cremation. Wow, 932 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 1: so this is young Hitler, celibate, wo angry about other 933 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:51,879 Speaker 1: people not being celibate, and a real thought audit level 934 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:53,200 Speaker 1: hatred of sex workers. 935 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 2: He is gallons of come and his sleep hm at 936 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,799 Speaker 2: this point in his life. I mean, every fucking night, 937 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:04,320 Speaker 2: what a what a. 938 00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:07,360 Speaker 1: Shitty little his socks shatter when they're tried. 939 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 2: Seriously, I cannot imagine, like how many fucking wet dreams a. 940 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 1: Dude happened, and they're all about the stuff that he 941 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,240 Speaker 1: says is terrible. Yeah, because that's why you rant about 942 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 1: this for hours to your best friend. You're concealing an 943 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:27,400 Speaker 1: erection as he yells about prostitution out there trying. 944 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:29,480 Speaker 2: To make a living of any kind in this world. 945 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 1: Again, we all knew a Hitler. Oh yeah, we've all 946 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 1: known this kid. 947 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 2: Oh god, no, absolutely, oh god, yeah, he is the 948 00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:39,120 Speaker 2: one that he's like, that's like one of the names 949 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 2: that you text the other people you went to high 950 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,480 Speaker 2: school with that you just laugh about when you hear 951 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 2: their name. Ye remember that guy? 952 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 1: Oh fuck yeah, oh that guy. Yeah yeah. So Hitler's 953 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 1: mom died like right before this point of like a 954 00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:55,480 Speaker 1: really really horrifying cancer. Uh, and then you know, he 955 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 1: wound up in with Kubazek, which is where that happened. 956 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 1: They lived together for a while, but Kubazek was successful, 957 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 1: like he was a really good musician, and Hitler, you know, 958 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 1: didn't get into art school. That's a pretty famous story. 959 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:08,239 Speaker 1: He eventually ran out of money and wound up living 960 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,280 Speaker 1: in a men's home, which was essentially like a homeless 961 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 1: shelter for vagrants. According to Ian Kershaw, being homeless did 962 00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:15,399 Speaker 1: not improve Hitler's game. 963 00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:19,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't imagine that it would. 964 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:21,359 Speaker 1: Quote should be fair. 965 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:23,759 Speaker 2: A home wouldn't have improved his game. 966 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 1: It seems like he was kind of hopeless either way. 967 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:29,000 Speaker 2: I don't would help. Yeah. 968 00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 1: Quote. When his circle of acquaintances got round to discussing 969 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 1: women and doubtless their own former girlfriends and sexual experiences, 970 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:36,280 Speaker 1: the best Hitler could come up with was a veiled 971 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 1: reference to Stephanie, who had been his first love, though 972 00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:40,759 Speaker 1: she never knew it because he never told her. The 973 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,400 Speaker 1: impression left with Reinhold Hainisch was that Hitler had very 974 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 1: little respect for the female sex but very austere ideas 975 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:49,399 Speaker 1: about relations between men and women. Hainish recalled Hitler telling 976 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:51,239 Speaker 1: him of a brief encounter with a milkmaid while he 977 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 1: was still at school, ending abruptly when she made advances 978 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 1: and he ran away, knocking over a churn of milk 979 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,680 Speaker 1: in his haste. This was probably a lie by Hitler. 980 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 1: Hitler described his own eye deal woman is cuddle. Is 981 00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:06,360 Speaker 1: a cute, cuddly, naive little thing, tender, sweet and stupid. Cool. 982 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:12,320 Speaker 2: Cool, that's great. You want a baby? Peace? Well, I mean, yeah, 983 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 2: it runs in his blood. 984 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:14,960 Speaker 1: Does run in his blood? 985 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:15,359 Speaker 2: Yeah? 986 00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: Oh god, it's gonna be weird how much it runs 987 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:35,239 Speaker 1: in his blood. But first we're back, okay, so uh. 988 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 1: Hitler also claimed during this period that women would inherently 989 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 1: quote rather bow to a strong man than dominate a weakling. 990 00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 1: Even for the time, young Hitler was seen as a 991 00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,160 Speaker 1: bit of a prude. This meant he didn't fit in 992 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:48,880 Speaker 1: super well in Turn of the century Enna, where erotic 993 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 1: art was in vogue and people were starting to do 994 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 1: the nineteen oh nine version of opening up a little bit. 995 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,399 Speaker 2: What's because he's just like popping boners all over them, 996 00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:58,239 Speaker 2: just popping Everyone could see him. 997 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,919 Speaker 1: His leader hosenes just like an arrow. 998 00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just like constantly, just like very sweaty and pink, 999 00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:05,120 Speaker 2: with like a. 1000 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:11,720 Speaker 1: Giant, angry direct terrible artists screaming at everybody and talking 1001 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 1: about how it's bad to come instantly Hitler, Oh, god nerd. 1002 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:23,320 Speaker 1: So one of the things that was happening in Vienna 1003 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:24,920 Speaker 1: this time, in the turn of the century is that 1004 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 1: rules about women's modesty had started to change and women 1005 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 1: were allowed to I mean, we're not talking like woke 1006 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,839 Speaker 1: by our standards, but things are improving, you know, things 1007 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,600 Speaker 1: are improving, and some women are pushing the envelope, both 1008 00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 1: professionally and then just how they present themselves to the world. 1009 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 1: Young Hitler did not like that, of course. Here's an 1010 00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:46,440 Speaker 1: excerpt from Kershaw's book again quote where decency demanded that 1011 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,080 Speaker 1: women were scarcely allowed to even show an ankle. Hitler's 1012 00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 1: embarrassment and the rapidity with which he fled with his 1013 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:54,400 Speaker 1: friend when a prospective landlady, during a search for a 1014 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:56,959 Speaker 1: room for Kubazek, let her silk dressing gown fall open 1015 00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 1: to reveal that she was wearing nothing but a pair 1016 00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 1: of knickers. But his brittishness went far beyond this. It amounted, 1017 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,400 Speaker 1: according to kubaz x account, to a deep disgust and 1018 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 1: repugnance at sexual activity. Hitler avoided contact with women, meeting 1019 00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:10,840 Speaker 1: with cold indifference during visits to the opera alleged attempts 1020 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 1: by young women, probably seeing him as something of an oddity, 1021 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:16,280 Speaker 1: to flirt with or tease him. He was repelled by homosexuality. 1022 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:20,239 Speaker 1: He refrained from masturbation. Prostitution horrified but fascinated him. He 1023 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:25,719 Speaker 1: associated it with venereal disease, which petrified him. So it 1024 00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:27,920 Speaker 1: is again hard to say how much of Kuba's x 1025 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 1: account is true. If Hitler was originally super anti gay, 1026 00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:33,880 Speaker 1: for example, he definitely got over that shit by the 1027 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:35,799 Speaker 1: time he was out of the army. Ernst Rome, the 1028 00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 1: head of the Brown Shirts, was a flamboyantly gay man 1029 00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:40,920 Speaker 1: who was flagrant about his love life. Hitler did eventually 1030 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,359 Speaker 1: kill Rome, but only after he was in power, and 1031 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:45,759 Speaker 1: some accounts say he resisted doing so for a very 1032 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 1: long time and expressed angst over the decision. Basically, Rome 1033 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,200 Speaker 1: wanted to replace the German Army with the Brown Shirts, 1034 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:52,719 Speaker 1: and that's why Hitler had to get rid of him, 1035 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:54,680 Speaker 1: and there was definitely like he was willing to kill 1036 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:56,319 Speaker 1: him because he was gay and he was seen as 1037 00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:59,799 Speaker 1: like a liability, but Hitler wasn't inherently against the idea 1038 00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:02,480 Speaker 1: of working with like It seems like he moderated on 1039 00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:04,600 Speaker 1: that as during his time in the army, at least 1040 00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:07,960 Speaker 1: from like a one point of view or another. There's 1041 00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:11,240 Speaker 1: debate about how much. But one thing that didn't change 1042 00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:13,799 Speaker 1: from Kubas X's memory of him was Hitler's obsession with 1043 00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:16,919 Speaker 1: venereal disease. The subject came up frequently in mind camp 1044 00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:19,720 Speaker 1: and in Hitler's early speeches. He generally like would compare 1045 00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 1: the Jewish refugees immigrating to the country as like a 1046 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 1: form of venereal disease. And there was a lot of 1047 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:28,719 Speaker 1: anti Semitic claims that Jewish prostitutes were spreading typhus. And 1048 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:32,000 Speaker 1: there's actually a rumor that Hitler himself got syphilis from 1049 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:34,600 Speaker 1: a prostitute sometime and like when he was a young adult. 1050 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,440 Speaker 1: Some in Wisenthal, the fame Nazi Hunter, went to his 1051 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,000 Speaker 1: grave believing this, even though there's no good evidence about it. 1052 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,880 Speaker 1: There's a lot of weird questions as to why people 1053 00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:45,879 Speaker 1: is someone like Wisenthal who's a Holocaust however himself would 1054 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:51,440 Speaker 1: be so much like into wanting to believe this, Yeah 1055 00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:56,399 Speaker 1: a reason. It's also there's like some weird A lot 1056 00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:59,160 Speaker 1: of the attempts to explain Hitler kind of come across 1057 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:02,160 Speaker 1: as blaming a Jewish person for his hatred of Jewish people, 1058 00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:03,440 Speaker 1: which is really problematic. 1059 00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:04,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's an issue. 1060 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:08,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. Kubuzek, for his part, always claimed that Hitler was, 1061 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 1: to the best of his knowledge, a normal dude, sexually 1062 00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:16,800 Speaker 1: not homosexual, not into anything weird, just like kind of 1063 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:21,560 Speaker 1: a sexually frustrated young man. Kubuzek was so emphatic about 1064 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:23,919 Speaker 1: that because by the nineteen fifties, when he was working 1065 00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:26,239 Speaker 1: on his book, there were numerous rumors that Hitler had 1066 00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:29,080 Speaker 1: been gay. This conspiracy theory is best embodied by the 1067 00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:32,120 Speaker 1: book The Pink Swastika from nineteen ninety five. That book 1068 00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:35,040 Speaker 1: was a major source for Denish Desso's a documentary where 1069 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 1: Denish claims that Democrats are the modern Nazis and that 1070 00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 1: gay people are Nazis and Hitler was gay, as a 1071 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:44,319 Speaker 1: regular headline in far right publications. I found one on 1072 00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:47,279 Speaker 1: Breitbart from twenty sixteen that just said, new evidence from 1073 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:50,360 Speaker 1: his doctors shows Hitler was gay. Obviously, it's not new evidence, 1074 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 1: it's it's the old OSS reports that suggested Hitler was homosexual. 1075 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:58,520 Speaker 1: Of course, in the OSS document, doctor Langer wrote, quote, 1076 00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,759 Speaker 1: his sex life is as dual as plitical outlook. He 1077 00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:04,440 Speaker 1: is both a homosexual and heterosexual, both socialist and fervent nationalists, 1078 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:08,040 Speaker 1: both man and woman. Again, that's just like psychoanalytic bullshit. 1079 00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:10,680 Speaker 1: There's there's no evidence that he was homosexual. He was 1080 00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:13,720 Speaker 1: okay with working with gay men, yeah, but like there's 1081 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:16,440 Speaker 1: no evidence beyond that. It's like, yeah, one of the 1082 00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:17,880 Speaker 1: things that's interesting to me is when you read a 1083 00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:20,760 Speaker 1: lot of like the old nineteen thirties and late twenties 1084 00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:24,360 Speaker 1: news articles criticizing Hitler. A lot of these like nineteen 1085 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:29,080 Speaker 1: twenties German journalists, some of whom are conservative, when they're 1086 00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:32,920 Speaker 1: talking about like homosexuality with the Nazi Party go out 1087 00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 1: of their way to not condemn homosexuality, to just be 1088 00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 1: like that, we're condemning the Nazis because their attitudes on 1089 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 1: homosexuality are so negative, but they have all these gay members. Yeah, 1090 00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:43,920 Speaker 1: which is more nuanced than I expected out of like 1091 00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:45,840 Speaker 1: nineteen twenties journalists in Germany. 1092 00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:47,759 Speaker 2: Very interesting. Well, yeah, it does make a lot of 1093 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:51,400 Speaker 2: sense though, because it's like I mean, coming after World 1094 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,040 Speaker 2: War One, you're in the trenches with men, and you 1095 00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:55,640 Speaker 2: need some kind of comfort. 1096 00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 1: To probably a lot of dudes fucking in World War One. Share. 1097 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:01,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, just to feel like you're a person and 1098 00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:03,400 Speaker 2: not just part of a meat grinder. Yeah, you know, 1099 00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:04,960 Speaker 2: so it's like, I'm sure that definitely. 1100 00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 1: You know, it was part of why attitudes started to 1101 00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:10,799 Speaker 1: open up, right until the Nazis clammed them shut again. 1102 00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. 1103 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 1: Now, Just so we covered the basics of Hitler's life here, 1104 00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 1: Hitler served in World War One. Obviously, he was at 1105 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:18,600 Speaker 1: the front basically the entire war. There are rumors, as 1106 00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:20,880 Speaker 1: we covered in our Children of Dictators episode, that he 1107 00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:23,479 Speaker 1: fathered a son with a French woman during this time. 1108 00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:27,840 Speaker 1: This is very much doubted by historians, the kind of 1109 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:31,680 Speaker 1: thing you can't debunk. But for what it's worth, the 1110 00:51:31,719 --> 00:51:33,480 Speaker 1: son of the guy who thought he was Hitler's son 1111 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,879 Speaker 1: says that Hitler was a gentle lover to his grandma. 1112 00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:40,560 Speaker 1: I don't know what that's based on. Seems like a reach. 1113 00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:42,600 Speaker 1: It seems like a weird flex too. 1114 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:46,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, a gentle love. Here's the thing. I 1115 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:49,560 Speaker 2: don't even know. I feel like he would be just 1116 00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,000 Speaker 2: like a petrified guy that would like come really quickly. 1117 00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:53,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess that is more accurate. 1118 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:56,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, that feels way like yeah, he's probably all fucking 1119 00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 2: talk and then he's just like, oh okay, sorry, yeah, 1120 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:02,000 Speaker 2: oh no, he says I'm sorry when he comes. 1121 00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:04,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the Hitler. 1122 00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:04,439 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1123 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 1: Now, when Hitler got back from World War One, he 1124 00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:12,439 Speaker 1: was sent by his military superiors to infiltrate a meeting 1125 00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:14,960 Speaker 1: of the National Socialist Political Party. And yet, you know 1126 00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:18,320 Speaker 1: the rest, more or less, he started giving speeches there, 1127 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:22,200 Speaker 1: became a figure in the National Socialist Party, consolidated power, 1128 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:24,880 Speaker 1: and plotted his you know, not quite meteoric, but eventually 1129 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:28,080 Speaker 1: total rise to power. Now, we don't have a whole 1130 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:31,520 Speaker 1: lot on Hitler's sexuality during the early nineteen twenties or 1131 00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:34,840 Speaker 1: his relationships. Hanschtangele is one of the main sources for 1132 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 1: the claims that Hitler might have been gay, and he 1133 00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:41,560 Speaker 1: said stuff like this quote. Obvious prostitutes barely admitted to 1134 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:44,600 Speaker 1: the Kaiserhoff hotel were fervently admired by him, provided that 1135 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:47,400 Speaker 1: they appeared in couples or with a man. A solitary 1136 00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:49,680 Speaker 1: woman is usually ignored by him, unless he is in 1137 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:52,239 Speaker 1: a large crowd and can send in someone to find 1138 00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 1: out her identity. He always wishes to be a spectator, 1139 00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:57,239 Speaker 1: do you know, he once said to doctor Sedgwick in 1140 00:52:57,320 --> 00:52:59,880 Speaker 1: nineteen twenty three, the audience at the circus is just 1141 00:52:59,920 --> 00:53:02,440 Speaker 1: like a woman. Someone who does not understand that intrinsically 1142 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,520 Speaker 1: feminine character of the mass will never be an effective speaker. 1143 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:08,600 Speaker 1: Ask yourself, what does a woman expect from a man? Clearness, 1144 00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:12,680 Speaker 1: decision power, action Like a woman, the masses fluctuate between extremes. 1145 00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:14,560 Speaker 1: What we want is to get the masses to act. 1146 00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:16,520 Speaker 1: This can obviously not be done with an appeal to 1147 00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:18,800 Speaker 1: their selfishness, nor to their cowardice, but by an appeal 1148 00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,759 Speaker 1: to their idealism, their courage, and their spirit of sacrifice. 1149 00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:24,040 Speaker 1: Who has more the spirit of sacrifice than a woman? 1150 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:26,160 Speaker 1: If she has talked too properly, she will be proud 1151 00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:28,440 Speaker 1: to sacrifice, because no woman will ever feel that her 1152 00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:33,600 Speaker 1: life sacrifices have received their duel fulfillment. It's Hitler analyzing 1153 00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:36,480 Speaker 1: the German people and interesting. 1154 00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:39,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, just what a first date? 1155 00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:42,439 Speaker 1: What a first date? Hans Stangele claims to have asked 1156 00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:45,680 Speaker 1: him once, why don't you marry, and he says. Hitler answered, quote, 1157 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:47,600 Speaker 1: marriage is not for me and never will be. My 1158 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:50,880 Speaker 1: only bride is my motherland. Then, seemingly with no sequence 1159 00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:53,120 Speaker 1: of ideas, he added, there are two ways in which 1160 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:55,279 Speaker 1: a man's character may be judged by the woman he 1161 00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:58,399 Speaker 1: marries and by the way he dies. In nineteen twenty three, 1162 00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 1: when Hanstangle once playfully six, if not a bride, you 1163 00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:04,000 Speaker 1: ought to have a mistress, Hitler replied, politics is a woman. 1164 00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:06,799 Speaker 1: He who loves her unhappily bites off his head. So 1165 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:09,399 Speaker 1: this is one of the versions of Hitler. You get 1166 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:13,120 Speaker 1: that he's just too busy being the embodiment of Germany 1167 00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:14,560 Speaker 1: to flirt with ladies. 1168 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:17,719 Speaker 2: What a piece of I. 1169 00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:20,359 Speaker 1: Think he continues that line the rest of his life. 1170 00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:22,759 Speaker 1: I think in this stage it's not true. But he's 1171 00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:25,240 Speaker 1: not actually dating around that much, and in this stage 1172 00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:28,040 Speaker 1: he's still too awkward. He starts to have success with 1173 00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:30,640 Speaker 1: women when he gets popular, Yeah, when. 1174 00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:33,000 Speaker 2: He starts getting some power, because then it's not about him, 1175 00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:36,000 Speaker 2: it's about the mythic thing that he's created. 1176 00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:38,680 Speaker 1: And in that case, he keeps saying that out loud 1177 00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:41,560 Speaker 1: and hiding his relationships with women. But he's also fucking 1178 00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:46,680 Speaker 1: some people. So anyway, that's the way this goes. So 1179 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 1: it's hard, basically impossible to say when Hitler lost his virginity. 1180 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:52,120 Speaker 1: We do have one spectacular example of Hitler striking out 1181 00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:54,600 Speaker 1: with a lady. It happened in nineteen twenty three, right 1182 00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:57,680 Speaker 1: before Hitler's famous beer hall push, when they were at 1183 00:54:57,719 --> 00:55:00,960 Speaker 1: Burkdis Garden. Now the story is related by Honchstangle, who 1184 00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:03,560 Speaker 1: had come to visit Hitler in Burkedus Garden on invitation, 1185 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:06,440 Speaker 1: but like Hitler, didn't like own a house there or anything. 1186 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:08,240 Speaker 1: At that point, they were all staying in a hotel. 1187 00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 1: The manager of the hotel was a guy named her Buckner, 1188 00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:13,839 Speaker 1: who was a German flying ace in World War One 1189 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:17,720 Speaker 1: and who had, according to Honstangle, a quote strikingly buxom, 1190 00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:20,680 Speaker 1: six foot tall blonde wife, which made her taller than Hitler. 1191 00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:24,719 Speaker 1: This rather vulgar, sensuous, blue eyed woman had manifestly succeeded 1192 00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:27,080 Speaker 1: in completely inflaming Hitler to a degree that made him 1193 00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:31,160 Speaker 1: seem entirely beyond himself. His breath was short, his cheeks feverish, 1194 00:55:31,160 --> 00:55:34,760 Speaker 1: his eyes filled with exaltation. In a swashbuckling manner, Hitler 1195 00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 1: was strutting up and down the large veranda and garden, 1196 00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:39,759 Speaker 1: swinging his whip. He would stop now and again to 1197 00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:43,040 Speaker 1: talk to Frau Buckner, whip in hand, punctuating his sentences 1198 00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 1: with the whip in a schoolboy fashion. He was obviously 1199 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:48,840 Speaker 1: showing off talking at Frau Buckner in the numerous gallery 1200 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 1: of admiring females, all party adherents he made, However, no 1201 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:55,160 Speaker 1: impression on Frau Buckner. On and on he went through 1202 00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:57,759 Speaker 1: the whole afternoon, acting the desperado, the wild man, the 1203 00:55:57,760 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 1: man of destiny. The whole performance seemed hopefully pubescent and empty. 1204 00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:06,520 Speaker 1: Oh god, Hitler just just whacking swinging a whip, trying 1205 00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:07,480 Speaker 1: to flirt with a girl. 1206 00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 2: Check out my whip. 1207 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:11,200 Speaker 1: Check the shit out? How good I am with his whip? 1208 00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:12,360 Speaker 1: Are you impressed? 1209 00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:12,839 Speaker 2: No? 1210 00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:13,799 Speaker 1: Think I look good? 1211 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:17,280 Speaker 2: Oh that's like the nineteen twenties version of just like yeah, 1212 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:20,359 Speaker 2: watching somebody play video games? Check it out? 1213 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:23,000 Speaker 1: No, check out out good I am? So we get 1214 00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:23,640 Speaker 1: this headshot. 1215 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:26,480 Speaker 2: Have so many potions. Think of how many potions I have. 1216 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:29,080 Speaker 2: It's not real no now. 1217 00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:32,399 Speaker 1: Hitler also had a gigantic crush on his friend Putsy's wife, 1218 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:36,080 Speaker 1: Helen A. Hompstangle. Ian Kershaw writes quote, on one occasion, 1219 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:38,640 Speaker 1: he took advantage of Putsy Hompstangle's brief absence from the 1220 00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:40,640 Speaker 1: room to fall on his knees in front of Helen 1221 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,799 Speaker 1: a Hompstangle, describing himself as her slave and bemoaning the 1222 00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:45,879 Speaker 1: faith that had led him to her too late. When 1223 00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:47,719 Speaker 1: Helen had told him of the incident, puts he put 1224 00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:49,319 Speaker 1: it down to Hitler's need to play the role of 1225 00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:51,120 Speaker 1: the languishing troubadour from time to time. 1226 00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:54,279 Speaker 2: This guy just like needed to be like that. He's 1227 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:56,600 Speaker 2: a cuck, is what he actually is. That I think 1228 00:56:56,680 --> 00:56:58,200 Speaker 2: is what he would have preferred. 1229 00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:00,840 Speaker 1: He needed a good sex therapist, say no, dude, just 1230 00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:01,160 Speaker 1: do this. 1231 00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:04,440 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah exactly, just like ask like, watch some 1232 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:07,360 Speaker 2: of your friend's bone. That's why I think you that's. 1233 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:09,960 Speaker 1: Why I think you'd be happiest with Hitler. Maybe give 1234 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:12,920 Speaker 1: up politics and just watch your friend's bone. Yeah, be 1235 00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:17,120 Speaker 1: that guy, Be that guy that's so yeah compared to Hitler, 1236 00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:17,920 Speaker 1: that's a great guy to be. 1237 00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, and especially like that is the child of 1238 00:57:20,560 --> 00:57:22,640 Speaker 2: a dad uncle. Yeah, I mean, like that's what your 1239 00:57:22,720 --> 00:57:23,320 Speaker 2: kid becomes. 1240 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:28,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. So when Putsy later expressed the worry that Hitler 1241 00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:32,400 Speaker 1: was essentially trying to steal his wife's affections. Helena told 1242 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 1: Putsy not to worry. Hitler was quote an absolute neuter, 1243 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:40,240 Speaker 1: so that was Helena's attitude towards him. Now, Hitler would 1244 00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 1: later prove them in the oss wrong. Actually, in the 1245 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:46,040 Speaker 1: early autumn of nineteen twenty six, when the rising fascist 1246 00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:49,200 Speaker 1: political star I met a girl named Mimi Writer. We 1247 00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:52,600 Speaker 1: will talk about her Hitler's courtship process and his preferences 1248 00:57:52,640 --> 00:57:56,840 Speaker 1: in fucking in part two of this podcast, But right now, 1249 00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:01,200 Speaker 1: it's the end of the episode till Thursday when we 1250 00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:03,400 Speaker 1: talk about the rest of this stuff.

So Mimi 1487 01:08:32,160 --> 01:08:35,720 Speaker 1: later talked to interviewers and I'm going to quote the 1488 01:08:35,720 --> 01:08:39,160 Speaker 1: book explaining Hitler's kind of the way it put together 1489 01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:43,240 Speaker 1: her recollection of how Hitler flirted with her during this period. Quote, 1490 01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:45,639 Speaker 1: she describes the affair. In the language of a Harlequin 1491 01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:48,800 Speaker 1: romance novel, Hitler is the stiff, somewhat ruthless stranger who 1492 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:50,720 Speaker 1: first appears with a dog and a whip, but is 1493 01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:53,960 Speaker 1: later melted into a schoolgirl fantasy lover by her charms. 1494 01:08:54,479 --> 01:08:57,799 Speaker 1: Quote from Mimi there is the famous Hitler, recently released 1495 01:08:57,840 --> 01:09:00,360 Speaker 1: from prison. She's told He was wearing breeches, a light 1496 01:09:00,439 --> 01:09:02,880 Speaker 1: vlure hat, she recalls, and his hand was a writing whip. 1497 01:09:02,920 --> 01:09:05,160 Speaker 1: He had warm, light gray stockings and a windbreaker that 1498 01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:07,720 Speaker 1: was held together by a leather belt. Beside him walked 1499 01:09:07,720 --> 01:09:11,320 Speaker 1: a beautiful shepherd. He sees her too, and is theatrically captivated. 1500 01:09:11,400 --> 01:09:14,519 Speaker 1: He asks Mimi's sister, could you introduce me to this bliss? 1501 01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:17,439 Speaker 1: Mimi is brought over. He transferred his writing whip from 1502 01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:19,320 Speaker 1: his right hand to his left, gave me his hand 1503 01:09:19,520 --> 01:09:22,040 Speaker 1: and looked at me with a piercing gaze, and praised 1504 01:09:22,040 --> 01:09:24,639 Speaker 1: her dog. The dog is really beautiful and well trained. 1505 01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:27,360 Speaker 1: You are really good at that. They talked about dogs 1506 01:09:27,360 --> 01:09:29,840 Speaker 1: for an hour. Hitler quote did not take his eyes 1507 01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:32,840 Speaker 1: off of Mimi. Then he very formally asked her sister 1508 01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:35,000 Speaker 1: Annie whether she would permit him to take Mimi for 1509 01:09:35,040 --> 01:09:37,880 Speaker 1: a walk. Sometime at that she Mimi got up and 1510 01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:41,920 Speaker 1: ran away. So this is the first meeting. Still she 1511 01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:44,479 Speaker 1: was fascinated in a starstrke way. He looks quite dashing 1512 01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:46,760 Speaker 1: with his breeches and his writing whip. There is one 1513 01:09:46,760 --> 01:09:49,960 Speaker 1: note that spoils the picture, his mustache, the funny flies 1514 01:09:50,120 --> 01:09:52,920 Speaker 1: she calls the black hairy growths between beneath Hitler's nose. 1515 01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:55,439 Speaker 1: He was still figuring out the mustache at this point. 1516 01:09:55,640 --> 01:09:59,840 Speaker 1: So she's I mean, she's a literal child, but isn't 1517 01:09:59,840 --> 01:10:02,200 Speaker 1: an entirely against it at first, but runs off when 1518 01:10:02,240 --> 01:10:04,679 Speaker 1: she's flirted with which again, this is fucking nineteen twenty six. 1519 01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:06,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean, And it's also like, at 1520 01:10:06,840 --> 01:10:10,800 Speaker 2: a certain point, having been like a young gal, that 1521 01:10:10,840 --> 01:10:13,880 Speaker 2: you kind of have to endure those things. You you're 1522 01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:17,000 Speaker 2: polite until you see an exit, and then you're like, okay, 1523 01:10:17,080 --> 01:10:19,040 Speaker 2: time to go.

Well, it's weird because she recalls this as like 1527 01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:28,920 Speaker 1: a positive thing, Okay, see, but it's also like, yeah, 1528 01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:32,040 Speaker 1: she's recalling this years later, and like when she realizes 1529 01:10:32,080 --> 01:10:35,479 Speaker 1: that she essentially hooked up with the most famous man 1530 01:10:35,560 --> 01:10:38,040 Speaker 1: of the twentieth century. Yeah, so like some of this 1531 01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:40,840 Speaker 1: is going to be retroactively, she's going to make it 1532 01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:43,559 Speaker 1: like a thing. I don't know.

He chose 1666 01:16:36,840 --> 01:16:40,680 Speaker 1: animal abuse. Oh great, here's MEMI reader quote. We went 1667 01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:42,320 Speaker 1: out into the night. Hitler was about to put his 1668 01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:44,320 Speaker 1: arm around my shoulders and pull me towards him, when 1669 01:16:44,320 --> 01:16:47,640 Speaker 1: the two dogs suddenly attacked each other. Hitler suddenly intervened 1670 01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:49,880 Speaker 1: like a maniac. He hit his dog with his writing 1671 01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:52,360 Speaker 1: whip and shook him violently by the collar. He was 1672 01:16:52,479 --> 01:16:54,760 Speaker 1: very excited. I did not expect that he could hit 1673 01:16:54,760 --> 01:16:57,360 Speaker 1: his dog so brutally and ruthlessly, the dog which he 1674 01:16:57,400 --> 01:16:59,639 Speaker 1: had said he could not live without. Yet he beat 1675 01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:02,400 Speaker 1: up his loyal companion. How can you be so brutal 1676 01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:05,080 Speaker 1: and beat your dog like that? I asked, it was necessary, 1677 01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:08,799 Speaker 1: Hitler said, tenderly. He touched my shoulders. His mouth changed, 1678 01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:11,320 Speaker 1: His voice sounded sad. Don't you want to kiss me? 1679 01:17:11,400 --> 01:17:13,880 Speaker 1: He asked. She forces herself to say no, that they 1680 01:17:13,920 --> 01:17:16,839 Speaker 1: shouldn't see each other again. Hitler takes the reaction badly. 1681 01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:20,360 Speaker 1: He turned cold. Kindness disappeared from his face. Abruptly. He 1682 01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:26,160 Speaker 1: turned away, said Hyle and left. Yeah. I mean pro tip, Hitler, 1683 01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:27,519 Speaker 1: don't beat dogs on a first date. 1684 01:17:27,920 --> 01:17:28,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1685 01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:30,479 Speaker 1: I shouldn't have to say that. Yeah, I shouldn't have 1686 01:17:30,479 --> 01:17:31,280 Speaker 1: to say don't beat dogs. 1687 01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:33,400 Speaker 2: No, no, no, I shouldn't have to say it anyway. Maybe 1688 01:17:33,400 --> 01:17:36,160 Speaker 2: not on the first you know, you don't do that. 1689 01:17:36,680 --> 01:17:38,840 Speaker 1: Most experts say animal abuse is like a third date. 1690 01:17:38,920 --> 01:17:40,000 Speaker 2: Thanks you exactly. 1691 01:17:40,200 --> 01:17:43,080 Speaker 1: That's when you get that dog whip out.

No, it was it was rough, 1700 01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:09,200 Speaker 1: I know. Yeah, poor babes. Yeah. Now, Hitler, once rejected, 1701 01:18:09,280 --> 01:18:10,760 Speaker 1: was not about to give up on his dreams of 1702 01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:13,240 Speaker 1: conquering this girl, literally less than half of his age. 1703 01:18:13,760 --> 01:18:15,720 Speaker 1: He sent one of his men to Mimi's store the 1704 01:18:15,720 --> 01:18:18,080 Speaker 1: next day. This guy told Mimi that he'd never seen 1705 01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:20,760 Speaker 1: the boss so filled with love. Believe me, the man 1706 01:18:20,880 --> 01:18:23,479 Speaker 1: is on fire. Now. This got me me to give 1707 01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:26,439 Speaker 1: Hitler a second chance. Yeah, she agreed to a second 1708 01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:28,320 Speaker 1: and it wasn't quite a date, but she agreed to 1709 01:18:28,320 --> 01:18:29,760 Speaker 1: hang out with him again. He picked her up at 1710 01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:31,600 Speaker 1: work and took her in a ride in his Mercedes. 1711 01:18:33,600 --> 01:18:36,439 Speaker 1: He didn't drive, of course, his man Maurice handled the driving. 1712 01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:39,559 Speaker 1: Hitler couldn't drive. He sat next to Mimi in the back. 1713 01:18:39,840 --> 01:18:42,080 Speaker 1: Quote he took my hand and put it into his lap. 1714 01:18:42,160 --> 01:18:44,040 Speaker 1: Then he took my other hand as well and pressed it. 1715 01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:46,360 Speaker 1: Now I have your hands, and I have you, and 1716 01:18:46,400 --> 01:18:50,320 Speaker 1: I will keep you now, you know.

Yeah. 1724 01:19:05,520 --> 01:19:08,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, she needed somebody to be on her side. 1725 01:19:08,160 --> 01:19:12,559 Speaker 1: Here some good adult advice. Oh god, I guess dad 1726 01:19:12,640 --> 01:19:15,040 Speaker 1: was grieving. I'm not gonna hit on him too hard, 1727 01:19:15,080 --> 01:19:16,840 Speaker 1: but it is kind of a failure of parenting if 1728 01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:19,760 Speaker 1: your daughter dates Hitler. Yeah, when she's sixteen. You know, 1729 01:19:20,400 --> 01:19:23,639 Speaker 1: adult kids can date Hitler. That's their mistake to make exactly. 1730 01:19:23,640 --> 01:19:26,559 Speaker 2: There's a couple of lessons that should have been taught better. 1731 01:19:26,600 --> 01:19:28,640 Speaker 1: Parenting at a few levels in this story would have 1732 01:19:28,680 --> 01:19:33,800 Speaker 1: really really helped with some problems. Yeah so uh. For 1733 01:19:33,920 --> 01:19:35,800 Speaker 1: their next date, Hitler took her to a graveyard to 1734 01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:39,080 Speaker 1: see her mom's grave. What happened next is just so 1735 01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:43,240 Speaker 1: strange that I I'm gonna read explaining Hitler's description because 1736 01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:48,080 Speaker 1: it's it's it's weird. Quote. Hitler's overcome thinking of his 1737 01:19:48,080 --> 01:19:50,200 Speaker 1: own mother, moved by something he did not want to 1738 01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:52,959 Speaker 1: tell me. What he said sounded very grave and utmost distress. 1739 01:19:53,280 --> 01:19:56,080 Speaker 1: I am not ready yet. Hitler, holding onto his writing whip, 1740 01:19:56,200 --> 01:19:59,000 Speaker 1: comforts as sobbing Mimi, and strangely chooses that moment to 1741 01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:02,920 Speaker 1: tell her, I you to call me Wolf. That was 1742 01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:05,880 Speaker 1: his preferred nickname Wolf. So he takes her to his 1743 01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:08,320 Speaker 1: mom's grave or her mom's grave, says he's not ready 1744 01:20:08,320 --> 01:20:10,120 Speaker 1: to fuck, and then asks her to call him Wolf. 1745 01:20:10,479 --> 01:20:13,800 Speaker 1: That was his favorite nickname. He thought it sounded cool. 1746 01:20:14,840 --> 01:20:17,759 Speaker 1: He made all his friends call him Wolf. Secret headquarters 1747 01:20:17,800 --> 01:20:20,960 Speaker 1: during the invasion of Russia was the wolf's lair. I'm 1748 01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:22,240 Speaker 1: just saying he would have been one of those guys 1749 01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:24,360 Speaker 1: with an unironic wolf howling at the moon shirt. 1750 01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:26,519 Speaker 2: You can't tell people your nickname. 1751 01:20:27,040 --> 01:20:30,160 Speaker 1: No, then it's not a nickname. Then it's narcissism. Yes, 1752 01:20:30,280 --> 01:20:33,640 Speaker 1: if you get a cool nickname, congratulations. Yeah, but you 1753 01:20:33,720 --> 01:20:34,400 Speaker 1: gotta earn it. 1754 01:20:34,600 --> 01:20:37,759 Speaker 2: Yes, you won't get to pick your own. Yeah, it's bullshit. 1755 01:20:37,960 --> 01:20:39,280 Speaker 1: You know what you do get to pick of your 1756 01:20:39,280 --> 01:20:42,000 Speaker 1: own is the products and services that you spend your 1757 01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:53,800 Speaker 1: money and or commerce units to purchase. ADS. We're back, A, 1758 01:20:53,960 --> 01:20:56,360 Speaker 1: we're back. We just enjoyed the freedom of choice that 1759 01:20:56,439 --> 01:20:59,200 Speaker 1: Hitler would not have approved of. Although, actually, if we're 1760 01:20:59,200 --> 01:21:02,920 Speaker 1: gonna be really honest, the Nazi regime was seriously in 1761 01:21:02,960 --> 01:21:05,120 Speaker 1: bed with the capitalist interest in Germany at the time 1762 01:21:05,240 --> 01:21:06,760 Speaker 1: and phrased a lot of what they were doing as 1763 01:21:06,760 --> 01:21:09,000 Speaker 1: a defense of free trade against unionism. 1764 01:21:09,160 --> 01:21:14,080 Speaker 2: But yeah, that's a whole that's another podcast product. 1765 01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:19,200 Speaker 1: Owners talking about his dick to day god, not the 1766 01:21:19,360 --> 01:21:24,439 Speaker 1: entanglements of fascism and capitalism throughout history, his little modern day. Yeah, 1767 01:21:24,960 --> 01:21:29,599 Speaker 1: it's a little little wolf wolfy, wolf Wolfy. So on 1768 01:21:29,640 --> 01:21:32,519 Speaker 1: their fourth date, Hitler decided to make his move on 1769 01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:34,640 Speaker 1: Mimi Reader.

Hitler told 1796 01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:43,080 Speaker 1: her that he wanted her to have his blonde Airyan babies, 1797 01:22:43,080 --> 01:22:45,160 Speaker 1: but wind that he didn't have the time right now, 1798 01:22:45,240 --> 01:22:47,679 Speaker 1: what with his mission to save Germany. How many times 1799 01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:50,320 Speaker 1: have you just told me? I mean, speaking as a man, 1800 01:22:50,320 --> 01:22:53,000 Speaker 1: we've all used that line. Oh yeah, I gotta save Germany, baby, 1801 01:22:53,080 --> 01:22:56,320 Speaker 1: I just can't help it. I just Germany. 1802 01:22:56,439 --> 01:22:58,920 Speaker 2: You know you're gonna last thirty seconds a piece of 1803 01:22:58,960 --> 01:23:02,040 Speaker 2: shit like please, you've got the time now. 1804 01:23:02,320 --> 01:23:05,280 Speaker 1: Hitler promised to buy an apartment in Berlin for them once. 1805 01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:07,439 Speaker 1: You know, he was more successful with you know, He 1806 01:23:07,560 --> 01:23:10,400 Speaker 1: made promises about the kind of the furniture they'd buy 1807 01:23:10,439 --> 01:23:12,559 Speaker 1: and all this stuff. He told her they'd be together forever, 1808 01:23:13,080 --> 01:23:15,519 Speaker 1: but then he left burkedis gotten and ignored her for months. 1809 01:23:15,760 --> 01:23:17,439 Speaker 2: This is the worst Springsteen song. 1810 01:23:17,560 --> 01:23:20,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, he just ghosts her, Yeah, ghost her for a 1811 01:23:20,720 --> 01:23:23,400 Speaker 1: long time. When he returned to the mountains, finally he 1812 01:23:23,439 --> 01:23:26,320 Speaker 1: didn't visit her. Being a teenager, Mimi did not take 1813 01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:28,960 Speaker 1: this very well. Yeah, yeah, well, yeah. 1814 01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:30,840 Speaker 2: It's okay, buddy, if you're gonna we're gonna go here. 1815 01:23:31,040 --> 01:23:31,519 Speaker 2: Let's do this. 1816 01:23:31,720 --> 01:23:35,240 Speaker 1: Let's do this. I mean, all sorts of pictures appeared 1817 01:23:35,280 --> 01:23:37,400 Speaker 1: in my mind, faces of other women and Hitler smiling 1818 01:23:37,439 --> 01:23:39,679 Speaker 1: at them. I did not want to go on living. Yeah, 1819 01:23:39,720 --> 01:23:42,600 Speaker 1: So she attempted suicide, trying to hang herself on a 1820 01:23:42,680 --> 01:23:43,880 Speaker 1: door handle with a clothesline. 1821 01:23:44,160 --> 01:23:44,719 Speaker 2: Damn, Memi. 1822 01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:47,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, she went for it. Her brother in law 1823 01:23:47,840 --> 01:23:50,040 Speaker 1: came in at the last minute and saved her. And 1824 01:23:50,080 --> 01:23:52,400 Speaker 1: according to Mimi, her brother in law had came to 1825 01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:54,920 Speaker 1: save her after he had gotten a message from Hitler 1826 01:23:54,920 --> 01:23:57,280 Speaker 1: that Hitler had just sent to him, explaining that he 1827 01:23:57,360 --> 01:24:00,000 Speaker 1: hadn't been seeing Mimi recently because he'd been black man 1828 01:24:00,240 --> 01:24:02,200 Speaker 1: by someone who'd sent a letter to the Nazi Party 1829 01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:06,360 Speaker 1: office claiming that Hitler was seducing underage girls. So basically 1830 01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:09,280 Speaker 1: months later, Hitler comes in and is like, uh, you know, 1831 01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:12,200 Speaker 1: somebody was talking about us, and I had to like 1832 01:24:12,479 --> 01:24:14,640 Speaker 1: go dark because it would have hurt the success of 1833 01:24:14,680 --> 01:24:17,439 Speaker 1: my political party. Yeah. If like we'd kept our thing up, 1834 01:24:17,520 --> 01:24:18,040 Speaker 1: so that's his. 1835 01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:21,280 Speaker 2: Excuse, the truth would have come out. Yeah, and oh 1836 01:24:21,520 --> 01:24:23,800 Speaker 2: so it's like he knows it's not supposed to be 1837 01:24:23,800 --> 01:24:24,080 Speaker 2: doing that. 1838 01:24:24,200 --> 01:24:25,760 Speaker 1: Yes, and this is not a lot of times when 1839 01:24:25,800 --> 01:24:27,840 Speaker 1: you talk about people dating teenagers whatever in the past. 1840 01:24:27,880 --> 01:24:29,240 Speaker 1: He was definitely more normal back then. 1841 01:24:29,360 --> 01:24:29,559 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1842 01:24:29,600 --> 01:24:32,719 Speaker 1: Again, this was a political liability for a thirty seven 1843 01:24:32,760 --> 01:24:34,240 Speaker 1: year old. It wouldn't have been weird if he'd been 1844 01:24:34,240 --> 01:24:35,960 Speaker 1: twenty five and dating a sixteen year old, that would 1845 01:24:35,960 --> 01:24:38,920 Speaker 1: have been pretty normal for Austria in nineteen twenty six. Over 1846 01:24:38,960 --> 01:24:42,360 Speaker 1: twenty years, this is weird. Yeah, Yeah, what he's doing 1847 01:24:42,439 --> 01:24:43,479 Speaker 1: is weird and he knows it. 1848 01:24:43,640 --> 01:24:43,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1849 01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:47,559 Speaker 1: Yeah. So Mimi claims that she found out later that 1850 01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:50,120 Speaker 1: the letters you know, sent into the Nazi Party office 1851 01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:51,840 Speaker 1: were actually written by a woman who was close to 1852 01:24:51,920 --> 01:24:55,479 Speaker 1: Hitler and jealous of his relationship with Mimi. It was 1853 01:24:55,520 --> 01:24:58,599 Speaker 1: possibly this lady who was like his bodyguard slash chauffeur, 1854 01:24:58,640 --> 01:25:00,479 Speaker 1: who was like in love with him. He may have 1855 01:25:00,600 --> 01:25:03,600 Speaker 1: also fucked. We don't really know that much about that relationship. 1856 01:25:04,040 --> 01:25:06,439 Speaker 1: There's a lot of rumored relationships that we don't have 1857 01:25:06,520 --> 01:25:09,720 Speaker 1: confirmation of, but one thing that is confirmed is that 1858 01:25:09,720 --> 01:25:13,000 Speaker 1: the Nazis were unbelievably catty bitches. There was tons of drops, 1859 01:25:13,160 --> 01:25:16,080 Speaker 1: tons of blackmail within the Nazis. Oh yeah, gross, and 1860 01:25:16,120 --> 01:25:17,280 Speaker 1: they were all fucking with each other. 1861 01:25:17,360 --> 01:25:20,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're all fucking messy. Just a bunch of. 1862 01:25:20,120 --> 01:25:24,040 Speaker 1: Messy bitches, messy messy bitches. Yeah, yeah, that's the Nazis. 1863 01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:27,720 Speaker 1: So Mimi and Hitler drifted apart for a while. The 1864 01:25:27,720 --> 01:25:29,840 Speaker 1: whole relationship was a huge deal for her, but it 1865 01:25:29,840 --> 01:25:31,240 Speaker 1: seems to have been more of a bump on the 1866 01:25:31,320 --> 01:25:34,400 Speaker 1: road for Hitler. During this time, he repeatedly flirted with 1867 01:25:34,400 --> 01:25:37,120 Speaker 1: his best friend, Honstegele's wife, as well as Henrietta Hoffman, 1868 01:25:37,240 --> 01:25:40,080 Speaker 1: the daughter of his photographer and fiance of Balder von Shirock, 1869 01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:42,639 Speaker 1: one of his top Nazis. Hitler dated or at least 1870 01:25:42,680 --> 01:25:45,080 Speaker 1: made moves on, Jenny Howe, one of his drivers, and 1871 01:25:45,560 --> 01:25:47,559 Speaker 1: the bodyguard lady had talked about maybe the woman who 1872 01:25:47,600 --> 01:25:50,000 Speaker 1: sent the letter. It's hard to tell how true all 1873 01:25:50,040 --> 01:25:52,400 Speaker 1: the different rumors about women Hitler might have been with was, 1874 01:25:52,400 --> 01:25:54,519 Speaker 1: But it seems like by the mid twenties he's famous 1875 01:25:54,600 --> 01:25:56,840 Speaker 1: enough that like a lot of people are falling for 1876 01:25:56,880 --> 01:26:00,439 Speaker 1: his charms. Yeah, yeah, largely for his fame. To Ian 1877 01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:03,320 Speaker 1: Kershaw quote, None of his liaisons, it seems, had been 1878 01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:06,439 Speaker 1: more than superficial. No deep feelings were ever stirred. Women 1879 01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:09,480 Speaker 1: were for Hitler a sport, an adornment in a men's world, 1880 01:26:09,560 --> 01:26:11,720 Speaker 1: whether in the men's home in Vienna, the regiment during 1881 01:26:11,760 --> 01:26:14,040 Speaker 1: the war, the Munich barracks until his discharge, and his 1882 01:26:14,120 --> 01:26:16,840 Speaker 1: regular gatherings of party cronies in Cafe Neumau or a 1883 01:26:16,880 --> 01:26:19,920 Speaker 1: cafe Heck in the nineteen twenties. Hitler's environment had always 1884 01:26:19,920 --> 01:26:23,439 Speaker 1: been overwhelmingly male. Very occasionally a woman would be admitted 1885 01:26:23,479 --> 01:26:27,320 Speaker 1: into our intimate circle recalled Heinrik Kaufman, but she never 1886 01:26:27,439 --> 01:26:29,160 Speaker 1: was allowed to become the center of it, and had 1887 01:26:29,200 --> 01:26:31,960 Speaker 1: to remain seen but not heard. She could occasionally take 1888 01:26:31,960 --> 01:26:34,080 Speaker 1: a small part in the conversation, but never was she 1889 01:26:34,160 --> 01:26:36,160 Speaker 1: allowed to hold forth or to contradict Hitler. 1890 01:26:36,320 --> 01:26:38,120 Speaker 2: Oh, I love a silent wife. 1891 01:26:38,479 --> 01:26:42,320 Speaker 1: Silent and dumb. That's the way Hitler likes him. A silent, sorry, 1892 01:26:42,400 --> 01:26:47,360 Speaker 1: quiet woman who's barely alive. God Hitler. Now. Hitler's next 1893 01:26:47,400 --> 01:26:52,360 Speaker 1: confirmed flame was with Gelly Raubel, his half niece. Oh, sick, sick, 1894 01:26:52,560 --> 01:26:55,280 Speaker 1: here we go. You can't stop a Hitler male from 1895 01:26:55,280 --> 01:26:59,679 Speaker 1: fucking his own niece. He cannot stay away from blood. 1896 01:27:01,520 --> 01:27:05,280 Speaker 1: It's the thing. What a two generations, the guys fucking. 1897 01:27:05,320 --> 01:27:08,880 Speaker 1: There's the same age when they start to So he 1898 01:27:08,960 --> 01:27:11,639 Speaker 1: met her when she was fourteen years old. Her father 1899 01:27:11,680 --> 01:27:13,360 Speaker 1: had died when she was young, and her mother worked 1900 01:27:13,360 --> 01:27:17,200 Speaker 1: as a housekeeper. They were poor. Hitler did wait until 1901 01:27:17,280 --> 01:27:20,919 Speaker 1: she was sixteen. Oh well, what a gentleman, What a gentleman. 1902 01:27:21,240 --> 01:27:23,760 Speaker 1: And that's the age when Uncle Alf, as she called him, 1903 01:27:23,840 --> 01:27:25,760 Speaker 1: asked her and her mom to move to Munich and 1904 01:27:25,800 --> 01:27:28,439 Speaker 1: become his housekeepers. Now for them, it would have seemed 1905 01:27:28,479 --> 01:27:30,559 Speaker 1: like a real upgrade, because he was a very powerful 1906 01:27:30,560 --> 01:27:33,360 Speaker 1: man by this point. He set Gilly and Angela up 1907 01:27:33,400 --> 01:27:35,920 Speaker 1: in an apartment, and while her mom cleaned house, Hitler 1908 01:27:35,960 --> 01:27:38,320 Speaker 1: took his teenage niece out on the town. He found 1909 01:27:38,320 --> 01:27:40,240 Speaker 1: out she wanted to be a singer and r Kelly 1910 01:27:40,400 --> 01:27:42,760 Speaker 1: like started paying for music lessons and promising to make 1911 01:27:42,800 --> 01:27:47,000 Speaker 1: her famous. Yeah, like it's all tracks, it's all tracks. 1912 01:27:47,400 --> 01:27:50,479 Speaker 1: It's not just he was just one of these guys, 1913 01:27:50,479 --> 01:27:51,320 Speaker 1: he was all of them. 1914 01:27:51,439 --> 01:27:54,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's the prototype for I mean before him too, 1915 01:27:54,320 --> 01:27:57,320 Speaker 2: but it's like he really is just greatest hits all around. 1916 01:27:57,479 --> 01:27:59,120 Speaker 2: How many was he into? 1917 01:27:59,200 --> 01:28:02,280 Speaker 1: Jello?

That might 1920 01:28:07,120 --> 01:28:13,280 Speaker 1: be an area where Cosby innovated on Hitler. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, although, yeah, 1921 01:28:13,280 --> 01:28:15,800 Speaker 1: there's some other crimes coming up hereself. Over the next 1922 01:28:15,880 --> 01:28:18,120 Speaker 1: year or so, Hitler fell increasingly in love with his 1923 01:28:18,200 --> 01:28:20,400 Speaker 1: teenage niece. This did not go over well with his 1924 01:28:20,400 --> 01:28:23,559 Speaker 1: inner circle. Han Stangle hated Gelly, calling her an empty 1925 01:28:23,560 --> 01:28:25,519 Speaker 1: headed slut with the coarse sort of bloom of a 1926 01:28:25,560 --> 01:28:29,360 Speaker 1: servant girl, which is some real sexist rich guys. 1927 01:28:29,360 --> 01:28:32,679 Speaker 2: Shit.

He hovered at her elbow 1955 01:29:40,120 --> 01:29:44,479 Speaker 1: in a very plausible imitation of adolescent infatuation, so Gilly 1956 01:29:44,560 --> 01:29:47,280 Speaker 1: wound up having an affair with Hitler's longtime show for 1957 01:29:47,479 --> 01:29:50,920 Speaker 1: Emil Maurice forgave her but fired Maurice Ye. When a 1958 01:29:50,920 --> 01:29:53,519 Speaker 1: local Nazi party leader named munder Wind that Gelly was 1959 01:29:53,560 --> 01:29:57,200 Speaker 1: distracting Hitler from politics, Hitler fired munder Yeah. For a while, 1960 01:29:57,280 --> 01:29:59,639 Speaker 1: Gilly Rabble threatened to derail the coming of the Third Reich, 1961 01:29:59,680 --> 01:30:02,960 Speaker 1: and tie Hitler started canceling plans for speeches and meetings 1962 01:30:02,960 --> 01:30:06,360 Speaker 1: to take her on picnics. Now, Gelly's probably the single 1963 01:30:06,360 --> 01:30:09,400 Speaker 1: most controversial piece of Hitler's backstory. Off the top of 1964 01:30:09,439 --> 01:30:12,400 Speaker 1: my head, the only thing historians debate more vociferously about 1965 01:30:12,439 --> 01:30:14,759 Speaker 1: Hitler is whether or not he was like an active 1966 01:30:14,840 --> 01:30:18,280 Speaker 1: or passive participant in the Holocaust. Like, those are like 1967 01:30:18,320 --> 01:30:20,880 Speaker 1: two of the things that are most questioned about this guy. 1968 01:30:21,040 --> 01:30:21,439 Speaker 2: Interesting. 1969 01:30:22,439 --> 01:30:25,080 Speaker 1: The relationship is, among other things, the origin of the 1970 01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:28,920 Speaker 1: Hitler liked poop myth. So that's where we're going next. 1971 01:30:29,240 --> 01:30:32,680 Speaker 2: Oh hell yeah, yeah, you know. It's just sometimes you 1972 01:30:32,760 --> 01:30:34,559 Speaker 2: think you're just gonna have a Friday, and here it. 1973 01:30:34,560 --> 01:30:36,840 Speaker 1: Is, and here it is, here it is. It does 1974 01:30:36,880 --> 01:30:39,479 Speaker 1: feel great. So in nineteen twenty nine, Hitler bought the 1975 01:30:39,520 --> 01:30:42,479 Speaker 1: gigantic apartment that he'd first promised Mimi Reader, but he 1976 01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:44,760 Speaker 1: was over her, so he moved his seventeen year old niece, 1977 01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:46,800 Speaker 1: and Glly's mother was sent off to Burkedis Goden to 1978 01:30:46,840 --> 01:30:48,760 Speaker 1: keep Hitler's holiday at home claim and to keep her 1979 01:30:48,800 --> 01:30:51,679 Speaker 1: away from Hitler and her daughter. So Gelly and Hitler 1980 01:30:51,680 --> 01:30:54,160 Speaker 1: lived in separate bedrooms but on the same floor. And 1981 01:30:54,200 --> 01:30:56,720 Speaker 1: now our main sources for this particular story about the 1982 01:30:56,760 --> 01:30:59,760 Speaker 1: relationship come from a journalist named Conrad Heyden and our 1983 01:30:59,800 --> 01:31:02,680 Speaker 1: old pal Honstangle. They also come from Gregor Strasser, a 1984 01:31:02,720 --> 01:31:05,640 Speaker 1: former Nazi who fell out with Hitler. So all these 1985 01:31:05,680 --> 01:31:07,920 Speaker 1: stories are from very anti Hitler people who have reason 1986 01:31:08,000 --> 01:31:10,120 Speaker 1: to exaggerate things, which is the way I bring that up. 1987 01:31:10,200 --> 01:31:11,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I just like that they've got a real 1988 01:31:12,040 --> 01:31:13,719 Speaker 2: like I love Lucy's set up in their house. 1989 01:31:13,800 --> 01:31:16,920 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, it's very much that, but with poop. 1990 01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:19,360 Speaker 1: So Vanity Fair quotes all of these sources, and I'm 1991 01:31:19,360 --> 01:31:22,920 Speaker 1: going to read their kind of recollection of events, starting 1992 01:31:22,920 --> 01:31:25,840 Speaker 1: with Heiden quote, Hitler wrote the young girl a letter 1993 01:31:25,880 --> 01:31:28,200 Speaker 1: couched in the most unmistakable terms. It was a letter 1994 01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:30,920 Speaker 1: in which the uncle and lover gave himself completely away. 1995 01:31:30,920 --> 01:31:33,240 Speaker 1: It expressed feelings which could be expected from a man 1996 01:31:33,280 --> 01:31:38,040 Speaker 1: with masochistic copprofile inclinations, bordering on what Havelock Ellis calls undinism. 1997 01:31:38,360 --> 01:31:40,640 Speaker 1: The letter probably would have been repulsive to Gelly if 1998 01:31:40,640 --> 01:31:42,920 Speaker 1: she had received it, but she never did. Hitler left 1999 01:31:42,920 --> 01:31:44,960 Speaker 1: the letter lying around, and it fell into the hands 2000 01:31:44,960 --> 01:31:47,760 Speaker 1: of his landlady's son, a certain doctor Rudolph. The letter 2001 01:31:47,880 --> 01:31:49,960 Speaker 1: was bound to debase Hitler and make him ridiculous in 2002 01:31:49,960 --> 01:31:51,960 Speaker 1: the eyes of anyone who might see it. Hitler seems 2003 01:31:51,960 --> 01:31:53,720 Speaker 1: to have feared that it was Rudolph's intention to make 2004 01:31:53,720 --> 01:31:57,920 Speaker 1: it public. So co profile is obviously loving poop, and 2005 01:31:58,080 --> 01:32:01,120 Speaker 1: udinism is loving to be urinated on. So that's that's 2006 01:32:01,160 --> 01:32:04,320 Speaker 1: how this journalist sort of describes this mythical letter. Yeah, 2007 01:32:04,400 --> 01:32:06,880 Speaker 1: Hitler almost sends Gelly, but it gets intercepted, and then 2008 01:32:06,920 --> 01:32:09,680 Speaker 1: another Nazi is like threatening the blackmail Hitler with it. 2009 01:32:09,760 --> 01:32:14,320 Speaker 2: I see again, that's an intense letter. How many rough 2010 01:32:14,400 --> 01:32:15,920 Speaker 2: drafts you go do you go through? 2011 01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:17,760 Speaker 1: Before you were telling your niece you want to poop 2012 01:32:17,760 --> 01:32:19,559 Speaker 1: in her? Yeah? Or be pooped in by her? 2013 01:32:19,680 --> 01:32:20,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? 2014 01:32:19,920 --> 01:32:21,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, man, we'd have to ask John 2015 01:32:21,479 --> 01:32:29,080 Speaker 1: McAfee that so putsi. Honpstangle told a pretty similar story 2016 01:32:29,160 --> 01:32:32,000 Speaker 1: in his biography, but he claims that the pornographic content 2017 01:32:32,080 --> 01:32:35,240 Speaker 1: was different. Rather than a letter about his desire to 2018 01:32:35,320 --> 01:32:38,800 Speaker 1: be pooped in by Gelly, Honstangle claims that the thing 2019 01:32:38,800 --> 01:32:41,599 Speaker 1: that got intercepted was Hitler's nude sketches of his niece. 2020 01:32:42,720 --> 01:32:45,920 Speaker 1: He describes the drawings as depraved, intimate sketches of Gelly 2021 01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:49,600 Speaker 1: rabble with every anatomical detail, which could have meant that 2022 01:32:49,640 --> 01:32:52,800 Speaker 1: it was something we'd consider really weird to be on 2023 01:32:52,840 --> 01:32:54,519 Speaker 1: the pale, or could have meant that he was just 2024 01:32:54,600 --> 01:32:56,280 Speaker 1: drawing porn of a girl. He thought it was his girlfriend, 2025 01:32:56,280 --> 01:32:58,320 Speaker 1: I mean s gross because she's his seventeen year old niece. 2026 01:32:58,840 --> 01:33:00,320 Speaker 1: But it might not have been a poo thing. 2027 01:33:00,479 --> 01:33:03,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it could just be like a nude photos or yeah, 2028 01:33:03,200 --> 01:33:03,839 Speaker 2: new drawings. 2029 01:33:04,200 --> 01:33:06,880 Speaker 1: Now, the most direct story we have, or most direct 2030 01:33:06,880 --> 01:33:09,760 Speaker 1: evidence we have of the Hitler liked poop myth, comes 2031 01:33:09,760 --> 01:33:13,080 Speaker 1: from Otto Strasser. Now, Otto was a leading figure in 2032 01:33:13,120 --> 01:33:14,920 Speaker 1: the Nazi Party for a while and then fell a 2033 01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:17,479 Speaker 1: foul of the party. His brother, who was also a Nazi, 2034 01:33:17,520 --> 01:33:20,559 Speaker 1: was murdered, and Otto became like a critic of the regime, 2035 01:33:20,920 --> 01:33:23,840 Speaker 1: and he wrote about this in a nineteen forty book 2036 01:33:23,880 --> 01:33:26,000 Speaker 1: that he published after he had fallen out with the party. 2037 01:33:26,040 --> 01:33:29,879 Speaker 1: So again grain assault. Here otto Strasser claims that basically, 2038 01:33:29,880 --> 01:33:31,960 Speaker 1: after a period of excitement, Gilly got bored of being 2039 01:33:32,040 --> 01:33:34,760 Speaker 1: Hitler's girlfriend, since Hitler believed he had to present an 2040 01:33:34,760 --> 01:33:37,479 Speaker 1: image of being available and married to Germany. Hitler's handler's 2041 01:33:37,520 --> 01:33:39,160 Speaker 1: like kind of thought that hitler sex appeal was a 2042 01:33:39,160 --> 01:33:41,080 Speaker 1: big part of Nazism's draw and if it was known 2043 01:33:41,080 --> 01:33:43,560 Speaker 1: that he had a girlfriend, like women wouldn't vote for 2044 01:33:43,640 --> 01:33:45,080 Speaker 1: him and then he wouldn't be able to win election, 2045 01:33:45,120 --> 01:33:46,320 Speaker 1: which they may have been right about. 2046 01:33:46,479 --> 01:33:49,680 Speaker 2: There's something, I mean, there's something there, I guess, yeah. 2047 01:33:49,360 --> 01:33:52,200 Speaker 1: It's hard to say. This was like pretty soon after 2048 01:33:52,280 --> 01:33:55,040 Speaker 1: women got the vote too, so like people were, I mean, 2049 01:33:55,080 --> 01:33:56,519 Speaker 1: people were sexist for a lotteries of thing. 2050 01:33:56,640 --> 01:33:59,559 Speaker 2: Got to vote for an available. 2051 01:33:59,040 --> 01:34:01,160 Speaker 1: Mass sexy Hitler and if she. 2052 01:34:01,120 --> 01:34:05,559 Speaker 2: Sees my ballad, I'll get to be missus Hitler. Yeah, yeah, exactly, 2053 01:34:05,720 --> 01:34:06,519 Speaker 2: missus Hitler. 2054 01:34:06,720 --> 01:34:09,719 Speaker 1: So basically Strausser claimed that, like Gelly was really bored 2055 01:34:09,760 --> 01:34:11,840 Speaker 1: all the time, and it was like really frustrated and 2056 01:34:11,840 --> 01:34:14,200 Speaker 1: depressed at not being able to go out with her boyfriend, 2057 01:34:14,600 --> 01:34:18,759 Speaker 1: and finally Hitler like allowed him Strasser to take Gelly 2058 01:34:18,800 --> 01:34:20,840 Speaker 1: out to a Marty Gral party because he was like, Okay, 2059 01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:22,599 Speaker 1: I'll let you do something, but I can't go with 2060 01:34:22,640 --> 01:34:24,719 Speaker 1: you because it'll look bad, So you go with my friend. 2061 01:34:24,920 --> 01:34:25,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. 2062 01:34:25,439 --> 01:34:28,479 Speaker 1: So. Strausser claims that during this party, they were sitting 2063 01:34:28,479 --> 01:34:30,800 Speaker 1: down at a table and talking and she opened up 2064 01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:34,719 Speaker 1: to him with a very emotional horror story. Quote from Strausser. 2065 01:34:35,240 --> 01:34:37,200 Speaker 1: Hitler made her undress while he would lie out on 2066 01:34:37,200 --> 01:34:39,080 Speaker 1: the floor. Then she would have to squat down over 2067 01:34:39,120 --> 01:34:41,120 Speaker 1: his face where he could examine her at close range, 2068 01:34:41,160 --> 01:34:43,679 Speaker 1: and this made him very excited. When the excitement reached 2069 01:34:43,720 --> 01:34:45,840 Speaker 1: its peak, he demanded that she urinate on him, and 2070 01:34:45,840 --> 01:34:48,639 Speaker 1: that gave him his sexual pleasure. Gilly said the whole 2071 01:34:48,720 --> 01:34:51,320 Speaker 1: performance was extremely disgusting to her, and although it was 2072 01:34:51,360 --> 01:34:57,799 Speaker 1: sexually stimulating, it gave her no gratification. So cool, Cool, 2073 01:34:57,920 --> 01:34:59,240 Speaker 1: what a party, What a party? 2074 01:34:59,320 --> 01:35:01,000 Speaker 2: The German party? Pties man? Yeah? 2075 01:35:01,240 --> 01:35:04,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and again Strasser hated Hitler by that point and 2076 01:35:04,800 --> 01:35:06,599 Speaker 1: may have just been trying to slander his name. Other 2077 01:35:06,680 --> 01:35:09,040 Speaker 1: reports of Gelly and Hitler's relationship say that it was 2078 01:35:09,080 --> 01:35:11,400 Speaker 1: about as normal as a sexual liaison between a niece 2079 01:35:11,439 --> 01:35:13,760 Speaker 1: and her uncle could be. We don't know what they 2080 01:35:13,800 --> 01:35:16,000 Speaker 1: got up to. What we do know is that in 2081 01:35:16,080 --> 01:35:18,840 Speaker 1: nineteen thirty one, at the cusp of Hitler reaching power, 2082 01:35:19,120 --> 01:35:21,800 Speaker 1: Mimi Reader came back into his life. Oh, this is 2083 01:35:21,800 --> 01:35:22,880 Speaker 1: while he's living with Gelly. 2084 01:35:23,400 --> 01:35:25,280 Speaker 2: She's like a legal age at this time and not 2085 01:35:25,320 --> 01:35:26,920 Speaker 2: even related to him. 2086 01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:30,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, she's like eighteen now wow, yeah, okay, So while 2087 01:35:30,600 --> 01:35:35,639 Speaker 1: Hitler's living with and banging his niece, Mimi Reader comes 2088 01:35:36,240 --> 01:35:38,760 Speaker 1: into town. She'd married a guy in the intervening years, 2089 01:35:38,760 --> 01:35:40,479 Speaker 1: but dumped him, you know, a little bit in and 2090 01:35:40,640 --> 01:35:43,600 Speaker 1: basically traveled to Munich for a Hitler booty call. So 2091 01:35:43,640 --> 01:35:45,479 Speaker 1: this is her version of events as described by the 2092 01:35:45,520 --> 01:35:49,439 Speaker 1: book Explaining Hitler. She quote calls Hitler's adjutant, Julia Shaub, 2093 01:35:49,520 --> 01:35:51,880 Speaker 1: informed that Mimi is in town. Hitler tells Shaub bring 2094 01:35:51,920 --> 01:35:54,160 Speaker 1: her over. Mimi places the episode that follows in the 2095 01:35:54,160 --> 01:35:56,200 Speaker 1: summer of nineteen thirty one, when Hitler was living in 2096 01:35:56,200 --> 01:35:59,200 Speaker 1: his big new apartment with Gilly Rabble. Now, Mimi claims 2097 01:35:59,200 --> 01:36:01,960 Speaker 1: that during this visit, I let everything happen, So they 2098 01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:05,080 Speaker 1: had sex. This is like one of the first confirmations 2099 01:36:05,080 --> 01:36:06,479 Speaker 1: we have, and she doesn't give us a lot of 2100 01:36:06,520 --> 01:36:09,280 Speaker 1: detail about this. We know that Hitler has a booty 2101 01:36:09,320 --> 01:36:13,040 Speaker 1: call with Mimi in early summer or whatever nineteen thirty one, 2102 01:36:13,520 --> 01:36:15,720 Speaker 1: and then not a whole long while later, maybe just 2103 01:36:15,760 --> 01:36:18,240 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks, maybe a few days, Kelly Rabble 2104 01:36:18,240 --> 01:36:22,240 Speaker 1: commits suicide. No yeahikes. Now. There are a number of 2105 01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:25,000 Speaker 1: theories as to why. One says she was jealous that 2106 01:36:25,080 --> 01:36:28,040 Speaker 1: Hitler had slept with Mimi, and being nineteen at the time, 2107 01:36:28,080 --> 01:36:30,719 Speaker 1: took the most dramatic revenge she could imagine. Another theory 2108 01:36:30,760 --> 01:36:33,320 Speaker 1: says she started an affair with a Jewish dance teacher 2109 01:36:33,360 --> 01:36:35,600 Speaker 1: in Vienna and was about to leave Hitler, and so 2110 01:36:35,680 --> 01:36:38,040 Speaker 1: he had her murdered. Some of the versions say that 2111 01:36:38,080 --> 01:36:41,000 Speaker 1: he murdered her himself. Yet another variant is that she 2112 01:36:41,000 --> 01:36:42,719 Speaker 1: wanted to leave for Vienna because she was just bored, 2113 01:36:42,760 --> 01:36:44,479 Speaker 1: but Hilly refused to let her go, and she killed 2114 01:36:44,479 --> 01:36:48,000 Speaker 1: herself in protest, because again, she was nineteen. Either way, 2115 01:36:48,080 --> 01:36:51,040 Speaker 1: one detail is consistent across all these stories. Kelly Rabble 2116 01:36:51,160 --> 01:36:54,439 Speaker 1: entered Hitler's room, found his six point five millimeter Mouser handgun, 2117 01:36:54,479 --> 01:36:57,160 Speaker 1: and shot herself dead through the chest. Wow, which again 2118 01:36:57,240 --> 01:36:58,479 Speaker 1: is part of why people think it might have been 2119 01:36:58,479 --> 01:36:59,800 Speaker 1: a murder because she shot herself off. 2120 01:37:00,760 --> 01:37:02,040 Speaker 2: That's a hard shot to take. 2121 01:37:02,200 --> 01:37:04,759 Speaker 1: But it's also not uncommon for women who commit suicide 2122 01:37:04,760 --> 01:37:06,840 Speaker 1: with guns to avoid shooting themselves in the head. 2123 01:37:07,280 --> 01:37:07,759 Speaker 2: Interesting. 2124 01:37:07,880 --> 01:37:12,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, wow, so huh, nobody knows. This is debated to 2125 01:37:12,880 --> 01:37:15,559 Speaker 1: this day. There are people right now who are trying 2126 01:37:15,600 --> 01:37:18,360 Speaker 1: to have her body exhumed in order to like to 2127 01:37:18,520 --> 01:37:20,080 Speaker 1: and like think that they found out. Like it's a 2128 01:37:20,080 --> 01:37:23,840 Speaker 1: big controversy and stuff. Still, we don't really know what happened. Yeah, 2129 01:37:23,920 --> 01:37:25,840 Speaker 1: it was a massive scandal at the time. People thought 2130 01:37:25,840 --> 01:37:28,240 Speaker 1: it was going to derail Hitler's political career, right on 2131 01:37:28,280 --> 01:37:31,320 Speaker 1: the cusp of Rice into power. The Nazi Party immediately 2132 01:37:31,560 --> 01:37:34,439 Speaker 1: responded with like basically claiming that she'd killed herself because 2133 01:37:34,479 --> 01:37:37,760 Speaker 1: she was nervous over an upcoming music recital. Yeah, the 2134 01:37:37,760 --> 01:37:41,080 Speaker 1: body was taken away courtesy of the Bavarian Minister of Justice, 2135 01:37:41,120 --> 01:37:44,519 Speaker 1: who was a Nazi sympathizer. Her death was declared a 2136 01:37:44,560 --> 01:37:47,280 Speaker 1: suicide after a quick inquest. It was all clearly shushed 2137 01:37:47,320 --> 01:37:49,439 Speaker 1: up by the Nazis in the government, and like the 2138 01:37:49,439 --> 01:37:52,280 Speaker 1: fact that law enforcement was fans with the Nazis. The 2139 01:37:52,320 --> 01:37:55,799 Speaker 1: whole story is it's really hard to like grasp exactly 2140 01:37:55,800 --> 01:37:58,320 Speaker 1: what happened here. There's certainly a good chance she was murdered, 2141 01:37:58,520 --> 01:38:00,280 Speaker 1: but there's at least an equally good chance that she 2142 01:38:00,360 --> 01:38:03,200 Speaker 1: was just driven to suicide by her relationship with Hitler. 2143 01:38:03,479 --> 01:38:06,759 Speaker 2: Well, and she'd also been like so isolated at this point, 2144 01:38:06,840 --> 01:38:09,160 Speaker 2: like your whole world is this guy, and it doesn't 2145 01:38:09,200 --> 01:38:10,080 Speaker 2: let you leave anywhere. 2146 01:38:10,120 --> 01:38:13,439 Speaker 1: And it's like, yeah, I can see learning about him 2147 01:38:13,560 --> 01:38:15,920 Speaker 1: screwing Mimi when she's living with him could have made 2148 01:38:15,920 --> 01:38:17,720 Speaker 1: her commit suicide. I can see how she might not 2149 01:38:17,760 --> 01:38:19,640 Speaker 1: have known that at all and just been fed up 2150 01:38:19,680 --> 01:38:19,920 Speaker 1: by it. 2151 01:38:20,040 --> 01:38:20,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, for sure. 2152 01:38:20,960 --> 01:38:25,120 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, driving women to suicide, along with flirting via 2153 01:38:25,120 --> 01:38:28,120 Speaker 1: whip was sort of Hitler's thing. Robert Waite, a psychologist, 2154 01:38:28,120 --> 01:38:32,840 Speaker 1: wrote a psychoanalytical biography of Hitler titled The Psychopathic God. Now, 2155 01:38:33,080 --> 01:38:35,439 Speaker 1: wait is like the first guy who got Langer's oss 2156 01:38:35,479 --> 01:38:37,559 Speaker 1: report to classified, and he's definitely a member of the 2157 01:38:37,600 --> 01:38:40,360 Speaker 1: Hitler was into weird shit sexually camp. So a lot 2158 01:38:40,360 --> 01:38:42,240 Speaker 1: of his conclusions are really debatable, but he makes a 2159 01:38:42,240 --> 01:38:44,840 Speaker 1: decent case to suggest that Hitler was doing something fucked 2160 01:38:44,880 --> 01:38:47,400 Speaker 1: up to the girls he liked. Quote the idea that 2161 01:38:47,520 --> 01:38:50,320 Speaker 1: Hitler had a sexual perversion particularly abhorrent to women is 2162 01:38:50,360 --> 01:38:53,000 Speaker 1: further supported by a statistic. Of the seven women who 2163 01:38:53,040 --> 01:38:56,080 Speaker 1: we can be reasonably sure had intimate relations with Hitler, 2164 01:38:56,360 --> 01:39:01,360 Speaker 1: six committed suicide are seriously attempted. So damn, oh so 2165 01:39:01,880 --> 01:39:04,760 Speaker 1: something something, something fucked up? 2166 01:39:05,160 --> 01:39:08,880 Speaker 2: God damn. Yeah, he's up in some bad business. 2167 01:39:08,880 --> 01:39:12,040 Speaker 1: Doesn't have to be kinky sex. Even more likely, maybe 2168 01:39:12,040 --> 01:39:14,559 Speaker 1: that he's just really emotionally abusive being Hitler. 2169 01:39:14,680 --> 01:39:18,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, something about you know, he doesn't seem 2170 01:39:18,720 --> 01:39:19,839 Speaker 2: like a supportive boyfriend. 2171 01:39:19,960 --> 01:39:21,679 Speaker 1: Does not seem like a supportive boyfriend. 2172 01:39:21,840 --> 01:39:24,040 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, this is a he's yeah, he's 2173 01:39:24,040 --> 01:39:25,479 Speaker 2: weaving some bullshit in your ears. 2174 01:39:25,560 --> 01:39:29,120 Speaker 1: Suicide is the single biggest through line, rather than poop, 2175 01:39:29,160 --> 01:39:30,160 Speaker 1: of Hitler's sex life. 2176 01:39:30,240 --> 01:39:30,439 Speaker 2: Yeah. 2177 01:39:30,600 --> 01:39:33,479 Speaker 1: Ava Brown, who was Hitler's wife eventually, who Hitler met 2178 01:39:33,479 --> 01:39:35,760 Speaker 1: in nineteen twenty nine while she was seventeen years old 2179 01:39:35,800 --> 01:39:38,799 Speaker 1: and he was in his forties, attempted suicide in nineteen 2180 01:39:38,840 --> 01:39:41,240 Speaker 1: thirty two and again in nineteen thirty five, and then 2181 01:39:41,280 --> 01:39:43,960 Speaker 1: obviously committed suicide with him in nineteen forty five. Yeah, 2182 01:39:43,960 --> 01:39:45,800 Speaker 1: there were two attempts before that point. 2183 01:39:45,960 --> 01:39:47,160 Speaker 2: Wow, while they were still together. 2184 01:39:47,520 --> 01:39:51,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. Wow, well, well ish, we'll see we'll talk about that. Yeah. 2185 01:39:51,080 --> 01:39:55,120 Speaker 1: Frau Inga Leh, another possible Hitler lover, successfully committed suicide. 2186 01:39:55,120 --> 01:39:58,200 Speaker 1: So did Renat Muller and Susie Liptauer. We don't know 2187 01:39:58,240 --> 01:40:01,280 Speaker 1: a lot about most of these relationships. Gelly, Mimi, and 2188 01:40:01,320 --> 01:40:03,080 Speaker 1: Eva are the only women we get a lot of 2189 01:40:03,120 --> 01:40:05,479 Speaker 1: detail about, and Mimi is the only lover who survived 2190 01:40:05,479 --> 01:40:08,559 Speaker 1: fucking Hitler long enough to give a detailed interview. It 2191 01:40:08,640 --> 01:40:10,840 Speaker 1: turns out that being in love with the leader of 2192 01:40:10,840 --> 01:40:14,040 Speaker 1: the German Reich was even more dangerous than fighting in Stalingrad. 2193 01:40:14,200 --> 01:40:17,080 Speaker 1: So we're gonna talk about why that may have been 2194 01:40:17,240 --> 01:40:19,599 Speaker 1: and about some of the things that we do know 2195 01:40:19,680 --> 01:40:21,519 Speaker 1: about his sex life from some of these women the 2196 01:40:21,880 --> 01:40:25,640 Speaker 1: other details. But first is an ad transition. 2197 01:40:26,360 --> 01:40:28,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's do some ads. 2198 01:40:28,640 --> 01:40:32,679 Speaker 1: Let's do some ads. Don't think about Hitler's sweaty balls. Well, 2199 01:40:32,840 --> 01:40:34,840 Speaker 1: you think about these products. Damn it, that's a really 2200 01:40:34,840 --> 01:40:37,960 Speaker 1: bad ad pivot. I'm glad Sophie's not here. She's gonna 2201 01:40:38,000 --> 01:40:41,840 Speaker 1: be really pissed at that products. 2202 01:40:47,840 --> 01:40:51,360 Speaker 2: We're back, all right, Okay, what a nice break from 2203 01:40:51,400 --> 01:40:53,080 Speaker 2: thinking about his shitty sweaty balls. 2204 01:40:53,080 --> 01:40:56,400 Speaker 1: He shitty sweaty balls or ball or ball who knows 2205 01:40:56,600 --> 01:40:59,559 Speaker 1: who knows well? As doctor said, not but okay, I 2206 01:40:59,560 --> 01:41:02,559 Speaker 1: don't know. It's a good song. So one of the 2207 01:41:02,560 --> 01:41:04,840 Speaker 1: women who committed suicide and is believed to have been 2208 01:41:04,840 --> 01:41:08,120 Speaker 1: a lover of Hitler was a Renaatee Muller. She was 2209 01:41:08,320 --> 01:41:11,160 Speaker 1: an actress, and she got to tell a little bit 2210 01:41:11,160 --> 01:41:13,000 Speaker 1: of her story before leaping out of a window and 2211 01:41:13,040 --> 01:41:16,600 Speaker 1: falling to her death in nineteen thirty seven. Damn yeah, 2212 01:41:16,760 --> 01:41:20,000 Speaker 1: so I'll quote Vanity Fair. These stories came from the 2213 01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:21,760 Speaker 1: guy who was her director, so we don't have heard 2214 01:41:21,760 --> 01:41:24,080 Speaker 1: directly being quoted on this. A guy who worked with 2215 01:41:24,120 --> 01:41:27,760 Speaker 1: her later told the OSS about like what had gone 2216 01:41:27,840 --> 01:41:31,240 Speaker 1: down between them? Quote her director. One A. Zeisler later 2217 01:41:31,240 --> 01:41:33,559 Speaker 1: told the OSS that she had confided in him shortly 2218 01:41:33,560 --> 01:41:35,840 Speaker 1: after spending a night with Hitler in the Reich's Chancellery, 2219 01:41:36,080 --> 01:41:38,040 Speaker 1: how distress she was that the nature of the sexual 2220 01:41:38,120 --> 01:41:41,160 Speaker 1: practices Hitler demanded of her, of which, to her mortification, 2221 01:41:41,280 --> 01:41:44,040 Speaker 1: she complied. She claimed Hitler fell on the floor and 2222 01:41:44,080 --> 01:41:46,600 Speaker 1: begged her to kick him, condemned himself as unworthy, and 2223 01:41:46,680 --> 01:41:49,960 Speaker 1: just groveled in an agonizing manner. The scene became intolerable 2224 01:41:49,960 --> 01:41:52,360 Speaker 1: to her, and finally she acceded to his wishes. As 2225 01:41:52,400 --> 01:41:54,879 Speaker 1: she continued to kick him, he became more and more excited. 2226 01:41:55,760 --> 01:41:58,439 Speaker 1: So that's a really different one. That's like Hitler liked 2227 01:41:58,479 --> 01:42:00,720 Speaker 1: being and that's to me more belie than some of 2228 01:42:00,760 --> 01:42:03,280 Speaker 1: the like a lot of powerful men they want to 2229 01:42:03,280 --> 01:42:05,559 Speaker 1: be talking about sex workers like that's what these guys 2230 01:42:05,560 --> 01:42:06,040 Speaker 1: go in for. 2231 01:42:06,240 --> 01:42:08,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exactly, like they want to be they want 2232 01:42:08,520 --> 01:42:09,080 Speaker 2: to be the sub. 2233 01:42:09,400 --> 01:42:12,040 Speaker 1: I don't have any trouble imagining Hitler wanting a woman 2234 01:42:12,040 --> 01:42:14,240 Speaker 1: to just kick him a bunch. No, he like masturbates 2235 01:42:14,280 --> 01:42:16,680 Speaker 1: on the floor. That's yeah, Yeah, that's that kind of 2236 01:42:16,680 --> 01:42:18,920 Speaker 1: sounds like the Hitler we know. Yeah, No, that's that. 2237 01:42:18,920 --> 01:42:22,320 Speaker 2: That definitely sounds way more because it's like there's a 2238 01:42:22,320 --> 01:42:24,200 Speaker 2: lot of self hate going on, so it's like being 2239 01:42:24,240 --> 01:42:26,680 Speaker 2: able to actually like exercise that party yourself. 2240 01:42:26,880 --> 01:42:29,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, that seems for sure. Yeah, I can see how 2241 01:42:29,320 --> 01:42:29,839 Speaker 1: that happened. 2242 01:42:30,000 --> 01:42:32,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that also just makes a lot of sense 2243 01:42:32,720 --> 01:42:38,000 Speaker 2: with like it would be very difficult to reconcile those 2244 01:42:38,040 --> 01:42:40,000 Speaker 2: two things if you were a woman that like knew 2245 01:42:40,080 --> 01:42:43,639 Speaker 2: that versus the image of the world that yeah Hitler, 2246 01:42:43,680 --> 01:42:46,120 Speaker 2: that you knew, So that would be. I mean, I 2247 01:42:46,560 --> 01:42:49,400 Speaker 2: can see how that would help with the suicide, or. 2248 01:42:49,360 --> 01:42:51,400 Speaker 1: It's it's there's also a lot of people who suspect 2249 01:42:51,439 --> 01:42:53,519 Speaker 1: that she did not commit suicide, that she was murdered 2250 01:42:53,560 --> 01:42:57,080 Speaker 1: because she knew about Hitler's sexual preferences, because she was 2251 01:42:57,400 --> 01:42:59,840 Speaker 1: kind of you know, dropped out a window in nineteen 2252 01:42:59,840 --> 01:43:02,240 Speaker 1: five thirty seven, might have been thrown. Yeah, we'll never know. 2253 01:43:02,680 --> 01:43:05,439 Speaker 1: This whole state was controlled by the Nazis by that point, 2254 01:43:05,479 --> 01:43:07,519 Speaker 1: so you're not getting a good in quest or anything. 2255 01:43:07,560 --> 01:43:09,160 Speaker 2: Well, it's like, how many of these women, Like, was 2256 01:43:09,160 --> 01:43:10,920 Speaker 2: it actually suicide versus murder? 2257 01:43:11,080 --> 01:43:13,160 Speaker 1: Well, that's that every nobody knows. With Gelly either, Like, 2258 01:43:13,280 --> 01:43:14,960 Speaker 1: it's possible they were all murdered and none of them 2259 01:43:15,040 --> 01:43:17,439 Speaker 1: killed themselves. A man with Hitler, I don't have trouble believing, 2260 01:43:17,479 --> 01:43:20,320 Speaker 1: like Eva Brown definitely tried to kill herself beforehand. So 2261 01:43:20,479 --> 01:43:22,840 Speaker 1: I also I suspect it's a mix. I suspect one 2262 01:43:22,880 --> 01:43:24,600 Speaker 1: or two of these women were murdered. Yeah, some of 2263 01:43:24,640 --> 01:43:28,600 Speaker 1: them committed suicide. Whatever the case, being with Hitler is 2264 01:43:28,640 --> 01:43:31,759 Speaker 1: not great for her long term SERVI what good again? 2265 01:43:32,000 --> 01:43:34,840 Speaker 1: Mimi Readers the only one we get along, which you know, 2266 01:43:35,160 --> 01:43:38,960 Speaker 1: she's kind of Hitler is the romance character in her 2267 01:43:38,960 --> 01:43:41,960 Speaker 1: recollection of things, but like she lived through it. Yeah, 2268 01:43:42,000 --> 01:43:45,519 Speaker 1: if that seems to be pretty hard, Yeah, damn really 2269 01:43:46,160 --> 01:43:51,839 Speaker 1: dodged a bullet there. Bullet Eva Brown did not dodge. 2270 01:43:51,880 --> 01:43:52,040 Speaker 2: Now. 2271 01:43:52,080 --> 01:43:55,200 Speaker 1: I think people who focus too much on the possibility 2272 01:43:55,240 --> 01:43:57,920 Speaker 1: of sexual deviance and Hitler kind of might have some 2273 01:43:58,040 --> 01:44:00,559 Speaker 1: kind of bad intentions under the surface. I feel like 2274 01:44:00,840 --> 01:44:04,080 Speaker 1: focusing on that on like the weird sex aspect of things, yeah, 2275 01:44:04,280 --> 01:44:06,240 Speaker 1: is a way to make him seem less scary. Like 2276 01:44:06,360 --> 01:44:09,439 Speaker 1: calling him a sexual serial killer. Oh h actually makes 2277 01:44:09,479 --> 01:44:12,240 Speaker 1: him less scary because if Hitler's like a serial killer 2278 01:44:12,280 --> 01:44:14,519 Speaker 1: doing all of these things because he's just Jeffrey Dahmer 2279 01:44:14,520 --> 01:44:16,679 Speaker 1: in charge of a nation, or if he'n some poop 2280 01:44:16,720 --> 01:44:19,719 Speaker 1: fiending sex monster, then he's not a normal human being 2281 01:44:19,760 --> 01:44:20,360 Speaker 1: like all of us. 2282 01:44:20,720 --> 01:44:24,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Well, And it's also like that's also demonizing 2283 01:44:24,320 --> 01:44:26,760 Speaker 2: those sexual practices where it's like, you know, your king's 2284 01:44:26,760 --> 01:44:28,679 Speaker 2: to your kinks as long as they're consensual, there's something 2285 01:44:28,680 --> 01:44:29,320 Speaker 2: the matter with them. 2286 01:44:29,360 --> 01:44:31,320 Speaker 1: Whether or not Hitler was poopin in people's mouths, A 2287 01:44:31,320 --> 01:44:33,240 Speaker 1: lot of people who didn't become Hitler were pooping in 2288 01:44:33,280 --> 01:44:35,120 Speaker 1: each other's mouth. Yes, and it's fine. 2289 01:44:35,400 --> 01:44:35,799 Speaker 2: Yeah. 2290 01:44:35,880 --> 01:44:39,559 Speaker 1: Yeah. Now, Martin Amos, best selling English author, is very 2291 01:44:39,640 --> 01:44:42,439 Speaker 1: much a proponent of the weird sex view of Hitler. 2292 01:44:42,479 --> 01:44:44,599 Speaker 1: He was behind one of these recent waves of Hitler 2293 01:44:44,680 --> 01:44:47,960 Speaker 1: kink's stories, one that hit back in twenty fourteen because 2294 01:44:48,000 --> 01:44:50,759 Speaker 1: during a speech he started making claims that he believed. 2295 01:44:51,000 --> 01:44:54,320 Speaker 1: He basically claimed that this was a typical sexual encounter 2296 01:44:54,320 --> 01:44:56,719 Speaker 1: in the life of Adolf Hitler. Quote, he would fortify 2297 01:44:56,720 --> 01:44:59,200 Speaker 1: his underpants with clean serviettes and napkins, and then he 2298 01:44:59,200 --> 01:45:01,719 Speaker 1: would go into some sort of excitation with Ava Brown, 2299 01:45:01,800 --> 01:45:05,400 Speaker 1: staying at a safe distance. So Amos believes that, and 2300 01:45:05,439 --> 01:45:07,320 Speaker 1: I'm going to quote from an article about him. There 2301 01:45:07,360 --> 01:45:09,720 Speaker 1: are three schools of thought when it comes to Hitler's sexuality. 2302 01:45:09,800 --> 01:45:12,040 Speaker 1: One is normality, which Amos says that he can be 2303 01:45:12,120 --> 01:45:14,759 Speaker 1: immediately thrown out because it is impossible to see Hitler 2304 01:45:14,760 --> 01:45:17,439 Speaker 1: as a considerate and energetic lover. The next one is 2305 01:45:17,479 --> 01:45:21,519 Speaker 1: a sexuality, and the third ist perversion. Now, this belief 2306 01:45:21,560 --> 01:45:23,880 Speaker 1: is in line with what spurned Nazis like han Stangle 2307 01:45:23,920 --> 01:45:26,280 Speaker 1: and Strasser claim, and is also in line with the 2308 01:45:26,360 --> 01:45:28,680 Speaker 1: Languer report, but very much out of line with the 2309 01:45:28,720 --> 01:45:31,519 Speaker 1: recollections of Mimi Reader, who probably did fuck him, and 2310 01:45:31,520 --> 01:45:33,600 Speaker 1: says that he was pretty normal outside, like he was 2311 01:45:33,640 --> 01:45:35,439 Speaker 1: a weird guy, but like in terms of the way 2312 01:45:35,439 --> 01:45:39,160 Speaker 1: he fucked nothing that crazy. Yeah, yeah, Hitler Sixter Paula 2313 01:45:39,240 --> 01:45:41,960 Speaker 1: does believe Mimi Reader was like the love of Hitler's life, 2314 01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:43,439 Speaker 1: and a lot of other people will say that Gelly 2315 01:45:43,520 --> 01:45:45,080 Speaker 1: was the love of his life. It's impossible to know. 2316 01:45:45,160 --> 01:45:46,800 Speaker 1: Maybe he never cared that much about any of them. 2317 01:45:46,840 --> 01:45:48,800 Speaker 2: I don't know if he's actually capable of love. 2318 01:45:48,960 --> 01:45:51,760 Speaker 1: That's a great question. In one of the reasons that, 2319 01:45:51,840 --> 01:45:53,880 Speaker 1: like Herman Gerring is one of the people who's like 2320 01:45:53,960 --> 01:45:56,840 Speaker 1: he was different after Gelly, Like a lot of people 2321 01:45:56,840 --> 01:45:59,320 Speaker 1: who wound up in trial after World War Two were 2322 01:45:59,360 --> 01:46:02,400 Speaker 1: the biggest proponent of the Hitler totally changed after his 2323 01:46:02,479 --> 01:46:06,760 Speaker 1: niece killed herself. And there's some suspicion among historians that like, well, 2324 01:46:06,800 --> 01:46:09,280 Speaker 1: you're just trying to like make it seem make yourself 2325 01:46:09,320 --> 01:46:11,400 Speaker 1: seem less complicit, and that like, no, when I got 2326 01:46:11,400 --> 01:46:13,640 Speaker 1: involved with this guy, he was a normal dude and 2327 01:46:13,680 --> 01:46:16,120 Speaker 1: then he went crazy, and I, you know it wasn't 2328 01:46:16,200 --> 01:46:18,280 Speaker 1: I I did, you know? It was out of my hands. 2329 01:46:18,479 --> 01:46:21,679 Speaker 2: Also, what a way to blame it on the woman. 2330 01:46:22,720 --> 01:46:27,040 Speaker 2: I mean, the the somersaults that people will pull to 2331 01:46:27,080 --> 01:46:28,960 Speaker 2: blame everything on a woman. 2332 01:46:29,120 --> 01:46:30,440 Speaker 1: It's amazing. 2333 01:46:30,640 --> 01:46:31,120 Speaker 2: Wow. 2334 01:46:31,160 --> 01:46:33,280 Speaker 1: And it comes down to like the ultimate example of 2335 01:46:33,320 --> 01:46:35,200 Speaker 1: that is not to throw a shade on Simon Wisenthal 2336 01:46:35,240 --> 01:46:38,480 Speaker 1: because he's a hero, but like the Hitler got syphilis 2337 01:46:38,479 --> 01:46:41,640 Speaker 1: from a Jewish prostitute, it's like both blame it on 2338 01:46:41,640 --> 01:46:43,160 Speaker 1: a Jewish person and on a woman. 2339 01:46:43,280 --> 01:46:45,840 Speaker 2: There we go, yeah, oh cool, that just a what 2340 01:46:45,880 --> 01:46:48,600 Speaker 2: a neat little bottle bow. We wrapped that up in 2341 01:46:48,840 --> 01:46:49,800 Speaker 2: He couldn't help it. 2342 01:46:52,160 --> 01:46:55,559 Speaker 1: Yeah. So this like the attitude that Hitler was just 2343 01:46:55,600 --> 01:46:59,080 Speaker 1: like sort of irredeemably weird and couldn't possibly have attracted 2344 01:46:59,120 --> 01:47:02,200 Speaker 1: a woman naturally, there was always strange. It's not only 2345 01:47:02,240 --> 01:47:04,320 Speaker 1: out of line with what, like Mimi Reader reported, it's 2346 01:47:04,360 --> 01:47:06,720 Speaker 1: out of line with what his friends who didn't go 2347 01:47:06,760 --> 01:47:09,080 Speaker 1: on trial for war crimes reported from this stage of 2348 01:47:09,080 --> 01:47:11,280 Speaker 1: his life. I found an interview in Time with a 2349 01:47:11,400 --> 01:47:13,880 Speaker 1: Carl Wilhelm Kraus, who worked as Hitler's valet for five 2350 01:47:13,960 --> 01:47:16,640 Speaker 1: years from thirty four to thirty nine. They were like 2351 01:47:16,840 --> 01:47:20,040 Speaker 1: friendly and here's what Kraus reported. Quote. What I can 2352 01:47:20,040 --> 01:47:22,200 Speaker 1: state here is that Hitler certainly did not hate women. 2353 01:47:22,479 --> 01:47:24,479 Speaker 1: Proof of this are the many actresses who were invited 2354 01:47:24,479 --> 01:47:27,440 Speaker 1: along during the early years to afternoon and evening performances. 2355 01:47:27,680 --> 01:47:30,960 Speaker 1: Often during our travels, he would suddenly be totally enchanted, exclaiming, 2356 01:47:31,000 --> 01:47:33,960 Speaker 1: My God, isn't that a beautiful girl? He then turned around, 2357 01:47:34,000 --> 01:47:35,880 Speaker 1: making me, who was behind him, moved to the side 2358 01:47:35,880 --> 01:47:37,640 Speaker 1: so that he had an unrestricted view behind him and 2359 01:47:37,680 --> 01:47:39,800 Speaker 1: could follow the lady with his gaze. If in any 2360 01:47:39,800 --> 01:47:42,519 Speaker 1: given place an exceptionally beautiful woman would catch his eye, 2361 01:47:42,680 --> 01:47:45,080 Speaker 1: Bruckner more often than not had to find out her address. 2362 01:47:45,160 --> 01:47:47,400 Speaker 1: After that, the lady was invited for coffee, either to 2363 01:47:47,520 --> 01:47:50,559 Speaker 1: Munich Berlin or the ober Saltzburg, just so Hitler could 2364 01:47:50,560 --> 01:47:53,160 Speaker 1: have a chat with her. That sounds like normal famous 2365 01:47:53,160 --> 01:47:56,200 Speaker 1: guy famous. That sounds like fucking any rich famous guy 2366 01:47:56,240 --> 01:47:57,960 Speaker 1: in la seeing a girl who thinks he's cute and 2367 01:47:57,960 --> 01:47:59,519 Speaker 1: having someone from his entourage go down there. 2368 01:47:59,560 --> 01:48:01,559 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, that's classic. 2369 01:48:01,760 --> 01:48:05,240 Speaker 1: Sounds like normal famous dude behavior. Ye. John Tolan talked 2370 01:48:05,280 --> 01:48:09,280 Speaker 1: to Emil Maurice, Hitler's long time chauffeur, and uh, this 2371 01:48:09,360 --> 01:48:10,680 Speaker 1: is the guy who made love to Gelly and then 2372 01:48:10,720 --> 01:48:12,800 Speaker 1: got fired. But he and Hitler were close for a 2373 01:48:12,840 --> 01:48:16,479 Speaker 1: long time, and despite being exiled by Hitler for fucking 2374 01:48:16,479 --> 01:48:19,280 Speaker 1: his niece, Emil Maurice gave a pretty reasonable appraisal of 2375 01:48:19,280 --> 01:48:22,759 Speaker 1: his old boss's sex life, quote, we chased girls together 2376 01:48:22,800 --> 01:48:24,720 Speaker 1: and I used to follow him like a shadow. The 2377 01:48:24,720 --> 01:48:26,600 Speaker 1: two would spend time at the art academy and an 2378 01:48:26,680 --> 01:48:29,719 Speaker 1: artist's studios, admiring models posing in the nude. Calling himself 2379 01:48:29,760 --> 01:48:32,519 Speaker 1: heir Wolf, Hitler would occasionally pass an evening with Maurice 2380 01:48:32,600 --> 01:48:34,960 Speaker 1: roaming the night spots and streets for girls. Since the 2381 01:48:35,000 --> 01:48:36,960 Speaker 1: latter was attractive to women, he would act as a 2382 01:48:37,000 --> 01:48:39,720 Speaker 1: go between every so often. According to Maurice, Hitler would 2383 01:48:39,760 --> 01:48:42,120 Speaker 1: entertain one of these conquests by proxy in his little room. 2384 01:48:42,320 --> 01:48:44,560 Speaker 1: He always offered flowers, even when he was penniless, and 2385 01:48:44,640 --> 01:48:46,639 Speaker 1: we used to go out and admire the ballet dancers. 2386 01:48:47,320 --> 01:48:49,720 Speaker 1: Sounds again normal, No, that's yeah, it's all as his 2387 01:48:49,760 --> 01:48:51,080 Speaker 1: hot friend wingman. 2388 01:48:50,800 --> 01:48:52,920 Speaker 2: For him, Like, yeah, that's all standard. 2389 01:48:53,000 --> 01:48:54,880 Speaker 1: Yeah again, these are like that, and this is a 2390 01:48:54,880 --> 01:48:56,960 Speaker 1: guy you'd expect. Emil Maurice would have bad shit to 2391 01:48:56,960 --> 01:48:59,080 Speaker 1: say about Hitler, but like, there's nothing about that. I 2392 01:48:59,080 --> 01:49:01,280 Speaker 1: don't believe that's sounds like a million guys. 2393 01:49:01,400 --> 01:49:05,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's nothing. Ultimately, there's nothing special about 2394 01:49:05,520 --> 01:49:08,480 Speaker 2: Hitler whatsoever. Like it's like there's. 2395 01:49:08,360 --> 01:49:12,720 Speaker 1: That's the conclusion you're drawn to. Now. The last destination 2396 01:49:12,800 --> 01:49:15,120 Speaker 1: on our tour to Hitler's love life is, of course, 2397 01:49:15,160 --> 01:49:18,439 Speaker 1: his relationship with Eva Brown or Braun. Eva was, as 2398 01:49:18,439 --> 01:49:21,040 Speaker 1: I stated, seventeen when they met. She had been educated 2399 01:49:21,080 --> 01:49:24,519 Speaker 1: in a convent like Mimi Reader and worked at Heinrich Hoffman, 2400 01:49:24,560 --> 01:49:26,960 Speaker 1: his photographer's shop. You know, she was working there when 2401 01:49:27,040 --> 01:49:28,920 Speaker 1: Hitler met her in nineteen twenty nine. Now, this is 2402 01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:31,040 Speaker 1: during the same year that Gelly and Hitler were supposedly 2403 01:49:31,040 --> 01:49:32,840 Speaker 1: in the midst of the greatest romance of his life. 2404 01:49:32,840 --> 01:49:34,680 Speaker 1: So they were living together in a relationship at this 2405 01:49:34,720 --> 01:49:37,120 Speaker 1: point when he meets and invites Eva Brown out to 2406 01:49:37,160 --> 01:49:39,760 Speaker 1: the opera, he probably started fucking her on the side 2407 01:49:39,800 --> 01:49:41,360 Speaker 1: while he was still with his niece, and then at 2408 01:49:41,360 --> 01:49:43,160 Speaker 1: one point fooling around with Mimi. So there's a point 2409 01:49:43,160 --> 01:49:45,599 Speaker 1: in time when Hitler's like fooling around with three ladies, 2410 01:49:45,840 --> 01:49:48,880 Speaker 1: one of whom lives with him. Yeah, and not telling 2411 01:49:48,880 --> 01:49:49,720 Speaker 1: any of them about this. 2412 01:49:49,840 --> 01:49:52,840 Speaker 2: I mean that's also standard standard rich guy. Yeah, that's 2413 01:49:52,840 --> 01:49:54,320 Speaker 2: standard rich Yeah, exactly. 2414 01:49:54,439 --> 01:49:55,160 Speaker 1: None of this is weird. 2415 01:49:55,240 --> 01:49:57,280 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, you're in the like you're you're in the 2416 01:49:57,280 --> 01:49:59,280 Speaker 2: power that you've craved for so long, so you're going to. 2417 01:49:59,360 --> 01:50:01,439 Speaker 1: Like, you know, fuck a bunch of ladies. 2418 01:50:01,520 --> 01:50:02,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exactly. 2419 01:50:02,560 --> 01:50:05,200 Speaker 1: And like the the Eva Brown's two suicide attempts, one 2420 01:50:05,200 --> 01:50:07,840 Speaker 1: of them coincides with like when Mimi would have come over, 2421 01:50:07,920 --> 01:50:10,559 Speaker 1: and when like Gelly would have killed herself, and one 2422 01:50:10,600 --> 01:50:13,840 Speaker 1: of them coincides with another potential person that we think 2423 01:50:13,920 --> 01:50:15,680 Speaker 1: Hitler might have been fucking around with. So it's very 2424 01:50:15,680 --> 01:50:18,360 Speaker 1: possible that Eva Brown's early suicide attempts in thirty two 2425 01:50:18,360 --> 01:50:21,000 Speaker 1: and thirty five were because she was a teenager hooking 2426 01:50:21,040 --> 01:50:22,840 Speaker 1: up in an angry man in his forties who played 2427 01:50:22,840 --> 01:50:24,439 Speaker 1: mind games with her and fucked around on the. 2428 01:50:24,360 --> 01:50:26,400 Speaker 2: Sly Yeah no, I mean not all about that. 2429 01:50:26,479 --> 01:50:30,320 Speaker 1: Tracks tracks so much better than Sexual serial Killer. Yeah 2430 01:50:30,439 --> 01:50:34,920 Speaker 1: yeah yeah. Now, Eva Brown makes is someone who I'd 2431 01:50:34,960 --> 01:50:38,200 Speaker 1: never really had made sense to me as a historical 2432 01:50:38,280 --> 01:50:41,200 Speaker 1: character before, But she makes so much sense if you 2433 01:50:41,240 --> 01:50:43,960 Speaker 1: think of her as a sensitive, artistic young woman dating 2434 01:50:44,000 --> 01:50:47,439 Speaker 1: a really really abusive dude that she's in love with. 2435 01:50:48,479 --> 01:50:52,000 Speaker 1: Eric Kempa, another Hitler chauffeur, called her the unhappiest woman 2436 01:50:52,120 --> 01:50:55,960 Speaker 1: in Germany. I really like Eva Brown as portrayed by 2437 01:50:56,000 --> 01:50:58,599 Speaker 1: the offer Jane Tyne. Now. Jane is a romance writer, 2438 01:50:58,880 --> 01:51:01,320 Speaker 1: mostly romantic historic fiction from what I can tell, but 2439 01:51:01,320 --> 01:51:04,120 Speaker 1: she's also written some serious historic essays, and the one 2440 01:51:04,160 --> 01:51:06,439 Speaker 1: of hers that I read was pretty good. I like 2441 01:51:06,520 --> 01:51:08,759 Speaker 1: the way she presents Eva because, as a general rule, 2442 01:51:08,800 --> 01:51:11,440 Speaker 1: brilliant as they are, most of the great Hitler biographers 2443 01:51:11,439 --> 01:51:14,360 Speaker 1: are male and kind at getting into Ava Brown's head 2444 01:51:14,360 --> 01:51:16,080 Speaker 1: even a little bit. So I'm going to read a 2445 01:51:16,160 --> 01:51:19,040 Speaker 1: quote from Jane kind of describing Ava Brown a little 2446 01:51:19,080 --> 01:51:22,800 Speaker 1: differently than I'd heard her describe before. Quote from Eva's letters. 2447 01:51:22,840 --> 01:51:25,080 Speaker 1: We learned that her parents disapproved and that Hitler would 2448 01:51:25,080 --> 01:51:27,879 Speaker 1: frequently ignore her in public, merely passing her an envelope 2449 01:51:27,880 --> 01:51:30,160 Speaker 1: of money, until at the end of the evening, when 2450 01:51:30,160 --> 01:51:32,520 Speaker 1: she was finally allotted a room in the Berlin Chancellery. 2451 01:51:32,800 --> 01:51:34,679 Speaker 1: She was forced to use a back entrance in case 2452 01:51:34,720 --> 01:51:37,559 Speaker 1: anyone saw her. Hitler and his henchmen tried their hardest 2453 01:51:37,560 --> 01:51:39,800 Speaker 1: to keep Ava out of the spotlight and forbade any 2454 01:51:39,840 --> 01:51:41,800 Speaker 1: picture of her to be published, because they were keen 2455 01:51:41,840 --> 01:51:44,120 Speaker 1: to project the idea that he was married to Germany, 2456 01:51:44,400 --> 01:51:47,280 Speaker 1: yet Ava herself ensured the opposite for posterity. She was 2457 01:51:47,280 --> 01:51:50,639 Speaker 1: an early adopter of Senafilm and made endless home movies. Today, 2458 01:51:50,680 --> 01:51:53,479 Speaker 1: she would have been constantly on Facebook, instagramming her meals 2459 01:51:53,479 --> 01:51:55,880 Speaker 1: and taking selfies at the Berghoff. One of her more 2460 01:51:55,920 --> 01:51:58,880 Speaker 1: astonishing ambitions was to star one day in a biopic 2461 01:51:58,880 --> 01:52:01,120 Speaker 1: of her life with the man he always called Wolf. 2462 01:52:02,000 --> 01:52:05,679 Speaker 1: So yeah, she's yeah, sounds like a pretty normal teenager, Yeah, 2463 01:52:05,760 --> 01:52:06,800 Speaker 1: dating a famous guy. 2464 01:52:06,920 --> 01:52:07,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exactly. 2465 01:52:08,600 --> 01:52:10,439 Speaker 1: I also like what Jane has to say about the 2466 01:52:10,520 --> 01:52:12,800 Speaker 1: Hitler is weird at sex myths because I think what 2467 01:52:12,920 --> 01:52:14,920 Speaker 1: she says rings true with an awful lot of the 2468 01:52:14,920 --> 01:52:18,080 Speaker 1: other research I've read quote it is impossible to peer 2469 01:52:18,120 --> 01:52:20,759 Speaker 1: behind the bedroom door. But suggestions that Hitler was sexually 2470 01:52:20,800 --> 01:52:24,000 Speaker 1: avoid because of his obsession with hygiene is contradicted by 2471 01:52:24,040 --> 01:52:26,320 Speaker 1: observers of the time, who suggest that Hitler and Ava 2472 01:52:26,400 --> 01:52:28,760 Speaker 1: did share a bed as a couple. They had interconnecting 2473 01:52:28,800 --> 01:52:31,960 Speaker 1: bedrooms at the Berghoff, and Hitler's ballet heinz Ling attests 2474 01:52:32,000 --> 01:52:34,200 Speaker 1: that they would go to bed together, while Hitler's maid 2475 01:52:34,280 --> 01:52:37,479 Speaker 1: Pauline Kohler wrote that Hitler is not strongly sexed Ava 2476 01:52:37,520 --> 01:52:40,920 Speaker 1: Brown's correspondence reveals nothing unusual, certainly not on the lines 2477 01:52:40,920 --> 01:52:43,920 Speaker 1: of fully clothed sex, except that once war had broken out, 2478 01:52:44,000 --> 01:52:46,559 Speaker 1: Hitler was unable to get interested. She used to show 2479 01:52:46,560 --> 01:52:49,400 Speaker 1: her friends a nineteen thirty eight photograph of Neville Chamberlain 2480 01:52:49,479 --> 01:52:52,599 Speaker 1: on a sofa in Hitler's Munich flat, saying, if only 2481 01:52:52,640 --> 01:52:55,720 Speaker 1: he knew what goings on that sofa has seen like 2482 01:52:55,960 --> 01:52:57,679 Speaker 1: we fucked on the sofa, and then the Prime Minister 2483 01:52:57,720 --> 01:53:02,000 Speaker 1: of England said on that ha ha, like a normal teenager. 2484 01:53:02,160 --> 01:53:05,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, like yeah, yeah yeah. 2485 01:53:05,640 --> 01:53:07,200 Speaker 1: So if you're still on the fence, if you're still 2486 01:53:07,280 --> 01:53:10,400 Speaker 1: on team Hitler was a kind of demonic sexual force 2487 01:53:10,520 --> 01:53:12,240 Speaker 1: rather than just a gross shitty dude who wound up 2488 01:53:12,240 --> 01:53:13,960 Speaker 1: in power through cunning and luck and the cowardice of 2489 01:53:14,040 --> 01:53:17,040 Speaker 1: arrogant men. Well, I'd like to read one more Hitler story, Okay, 2490 01:53:17,560 --> 01:53:20,000 Speaker 1: Mimi Reader came back to Hitler after their nineteen thirty 2491 01:53:20,040 --> 01:53:23,120 Speaker 1: one liaison. This was in nineteen thirty four, when Hitler 2492 01:53:23,160 --> 01:53:25,240 Speaker 1: was in power. Gilly had been dead for three years, 2493 01:53:25,280 --> 01:53:27,360 Speaker 1: her room had been turned into a shrine, and Hitler 2494 01:53:27,400 --> 01:53:30,439 Speaker 1: was unofficially with Ava Brown. Now Ava doesn't live with 2495 01:53:30,520 --> 01:53:32,200 Speaker 1: him at this point, because of course he's got to 2496 01:53:32,240 --> 01:53:35,599 Speaker 1: appear married to Germany. That old is that old ball 2497 01:53:35,680 --> 01:53:41,120 Speaker 1: and Germany. This gave der Feury the ability to invite 2498 01:53:41,120 --> 01:53:43,240 Speaker 1: Mimi in when she knocked on his door. I'm going 2499 01:53:43,280 --> 01:53:47,080 Speaker 1: to quote from explaining Hitler's write up of Mimi's recollections. Quote, 2500 01:53:47,200 --> 01:53:49,960 Speaker 1: once again, the relationship came to life. Once again. He 2501 01:53:50,000 --> 01:53:52,000 Speaker 1: asked her to stay with him as his lover. She 2502 01:53:52,080 --> 01:53:54,400 Speaker 1: insists she will not be part of an illicit relationship. 2503 01:53:54,439 --> 01:53:56,880 Speaker 1: She wanted to be married and to have children. Suddenly 2504 01:53:57,000 --> 01:53:59,080 Speaker 1: Hitler had a fit of rage. She shouted, why do 2505 01:53:59,120 --> 01:54:01,400 Speaker 1: you women only think of how having children? He kept shouting. 2506 01:54:01,439 --> 01:54:03,479 Speaker 1: It was around three am that he could not take 2507 01:54:03,520 --> 01:54:05,280 Speaker 1: care of a woman. He shouted that he had a 2508 01:54:05,280 --> 01:54:07,880 Speaker 1: big mission to fulfill. They argued for two more hours 2509 01:54:07,920 --> 01:54:10,280 Speaker 1: than they departed, never to see each other again. 2510 01:54:11,080 --> 01:54:14,879 Speaker 2: Whoo, yeah, dodged several bullets, Mimi. 2511 01:54:15,280 --> 01:54:19,240 Speaker 1: You really did. And yeah, it's also. 2512 01:54:19,080 --> 01:54:22,080 Speaker 2: So crazy because it's like, Okay, you're going after women 2513 01:54:22,160 --> 01:54:25,400 Speaker 2: that are raised in convents, motherfucker, Like the only purpose 2514 01:54:26,479 --> 01:54:30,080 Speaker 2: for sex in the Catholic Church is procreation. Yeah, and 2515 01:54:30,080 --> 01:54:31,960 Speaker 2: then you're mad at them, like you're taught all the 2516 01:54:31,960 --> 01:54:32,720 Speaker 2: same shit. 2517 01:54:33,400 --> 01:54:38,600 Speaker 1: Oh god, Yeah, I think what like maybe Hitler was 2518 01:54:38,640 --> 01:54:42,200 Speaker 1: in the poop and pee and maybe he liked sex 2519 01:54:42,200 --> 01:54:45,040 Speaker 1: with clothes on. Maybe not. At the end of the day, 2520 01:54:45,080 --> 01:54:47,760 Speaker 1: the overwhelming picture I'm left with of Hitler is that 2521 01:54:47,840 --> 01:54:51,040 Speaker 1: he was the same Like every woman has dated a 2522 01:54:51,080 --> 01:54:54,040 Speaker 1: shitty guy. Oh, just like Hitler. They just didn't wind 2523 01:54:54,120 --> 01:54:55,280 Speaker 1: up in charge of the country. 2524 01:54:55,520 --> 01:54:59,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
