For 25 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: this recording? The only possible thing to do in the 26 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: face of chaos is to just completely yield to the 27 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 1: chaos and give up even trying to structure the show perfect. 28 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 1: Sounds great? Yeah, I think that's I think that's the plan. Okay, 29 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 1: explains why you're standing on the table? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Now, Brandy, Yeah, 30 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: Today we have a subject that is near and dear 31 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: to no one's hearts, but more important than I think 32 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: a lot of people give it credit to. Today we're 33 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:36,199 Speaker 1: talking about how Hitler fucked. Oh so glad you called 34 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 1: me for this one. I'm flattered. Well, I mean we 35 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: had you want to talk about Stalin and his his 36 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: his love of pranks and djaying and drinking more than 37 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: anyone else and now and fucking Hitler feels like a prank. Yeah, 38 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: well maybe or maybe not. I can't my my predictions 39 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: out of the gate. Can I give a prediction? Very 40 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: curious for that? Not a generous lover? Okay? And also 41 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 1: gonna say this. Um not going to shame somebody for 42 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,239 Speaker 1: having a small penis because that is outside of your control. 43 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: But real angry guy never feeling he probably has a 44 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: little little guy. The funny thing about Hitler because Hitler, 45 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: Hitler's like the one person people have talked about more 46 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: than any other single person in the storm, always been 47 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: written about him and whatnot. Everything you just talked about, 48 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: the possibility he had a micro penis, the possibility he 49 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: was not a generous lover. This has all been debated 50 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 1: by like elderly scholars from Stanford and Cambridge at link. 51 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: Like That's one of the fun things about Hitler studies 52 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: is that, like that question about whether or not he 53 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: had a micro penis, like the CIA's weighed in, like 54 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 1: it's it's a thing. Imagine dedicating your career to that, 55 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: Like mom, dadam majoring in Hitler Dick, Well, just Hitler 56 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: studies in general. And if you're going to be into 57 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,399 Speaker 1: Hitler studies, you're gonna have some questions about his dick. Yeah, 58 00:02:55,560 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: pH dick, pH dick in Hitler's fucking This is not 59 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: going to be the most adult episode in certain points, 60 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: but I'm good with that. I think you'll be surprised 61 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: where it goes. I do like that in front of 62 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: me on the table while recording. We do have a 63 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: product called a Purina busy bone, which is just right 64 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: on the table in front of me. Speaking of busy bones, Yes, 65 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: Hitler's it's debatable. It's all very very heavy bone. Didn't 66 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: get very busy, lazy bone. It's possible his bone got 67 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: a lot busier than people give him credit for. There's 68 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: a lot of debate around this topic. There's even a 69 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: lot of debate about the nature of his genitals. In 70 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: addition to the question that like the OSS, the precursor 71 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: to the CIA, talked a lot about like whether or 72 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: not yet a micro penis. Based on some interviews with 73 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: some people, there's a hypothesis that a goat bit off 74 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: his dick when he was very young, and that that 75 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: was the secret of his madness, that he goat bit 76 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: his dick. Want that to be true, That a lot 77 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: of people did, Like, again, where's that? I mean, we 78 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: don't want to we don't want to celebrate that goat 79 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: if it's the secret Hitler's madness. Yeah, I mean that's true. 80 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: That's true now, and we're not going to get into 81 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: much of that. There's also a theory that he had 82 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: one ball and there was like a song during the 83 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: war Hitler has only got one ball, going has two 84 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: but very small Nana no no, no, no no no. 85 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: That was like a British ditty. But there were real 86 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: rumors about it. Is that where that that melody comes from? 87 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: Or is that a weird al parody about it was? 88 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: I mean, weird al hadn't been conceived of yet, Like 89 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: it was it was a parody of of that like tune, 90 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: just an easy tune to mix a song too. There's testicles. 91 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: I just wanted to make sure that that wasn't like 92 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: what that original song was, because it was like, how 93 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: is that not a fact? In my lexicout At endpoint, 94 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: we have interviews with a couple of different doctors who, 95 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: you know, palpated Hitler's genitals because that's what doctors do, 96 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: and they all say perfectly normal. So there's no hard 97 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: evidence of that, but it has been debated a lot, 98 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: and I do think it's important that people know for 99 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: historical context that when bombs were raining down on London, 100 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 1: people were comfort themselves with songs about Hitler and Garring's genitalia. Yes, yeah, 101 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: I'm pretty into that. It's great. It's great. Nothing cuts 102 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: to the core quite like a parody song. No it doesn't. 103 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: Let's uh, let's dive deeper into this. Let's get in there. 104 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: Let's just get on in there. So, as you might 105 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: guess by the fact that I wasn't even holding up 106 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: my notes for that whole discussion about Hitler's genitalia and 107 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: the rumors about it, I am what you might call 108 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: a Hitler nerd. I've read enough biographies of the man 109 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 1: that I've started reading books about Hitler, biographies that are 110 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: essentially comparing all of the different biographies of Hitler, and 111 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 1: like like biographies about writing biographies about Hitler. It's a problem. Yeah, yeah, 112 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: it's not good. Do you have like a shell? Is 113 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 1: it like a shelf in your house? Or do you 114 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: have like a cloth in front of it? You know, 115 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: I own a couple of physical copies, but I I 116 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 1: for the show. I get too many books, Like I 117 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: just have everything i'd kindle, like I usually I'm buying 118 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: sometimes two or three in a week. Like, you just 119 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: take too long. It's better to have that all digital. Well, 120 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: although I think if you were to actually see titles 121 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 1: laid out in front of you. Physically, you'd be like, oh, 122 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: there's things that would be that would be nicer, but 123 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 1: it would I think it would take a lot longer 124 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: to put together episodes. Fair, Okay. The point of this 125 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: is that I tend to be on the cutting edge 126 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: of new Hitler research in terms of like what I'm reading. 127 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: I'm not doing new Hitler research, but I still yeah, 128 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: that's so uh speaking of that. A couple of days ago, 129 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: I was actively looking for new Hitler facts, just see 130 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: if any had come out in the last couple of 131 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: months since I checked that, and I came across an 132 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: article in The Independent called Hitler was a sexually confused 133 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 1: serial killer, psychologist claims in new book. So that's that's 134 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 1: quite a claim. So I think you can also probably 135 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,040 Speaker 1: just say serial killer, because I think most serial killers 136 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: have got, you know, their wires crossed. Yeah. I mean 137 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: it's interesting the term confused for serial killer because I 138 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: wonder if like a guy like Ted Bundy probably wouldn't 139 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: be like, no, I wasn't confused. I just this is 140 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: what I wanted to do. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah. 141 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: The the confusion came from wherever the wiring crossed in 142 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: the first place. Yeah, he's very matter of fact about Yeah. 143 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: And the book that apparently makes these claims is titled 144 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: Hitler One and Hitler Too, The Sexual No Man's Land. 145 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 1: It's by a bestselling German author and psychiatrist named Vulcar 146 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: Ellis Pilgrim. Uh. And is that like a new like 147 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: that's a very dark cat in the Hat, Hitler one 148 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: and Hitler to the cat in the Hat go and 149 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: they just Hitler one and Hitler. Yeah, they can do 150 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: anything anything. Oh no, do the son in Red. It's 151 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: a white supremacist parody right there. Yeah, yeah, some some 152 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: Nazi listening in is already hard at work on that, 153 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: not the Dr SEUs version. I haven't gotten to read 154 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: that book because it's only in German and I do 155 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: not uh read German, which is almost the title of 156 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: a great podcast. There's podcast called I Don't Speak German 157 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: about the ault, right, but people should listen to if 158 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: they want. It's kind of like my show, but way 159 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: more focused on that one narrow group of people. Great 160 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: podcast anyway, I don't read German, Yeah, I don't read German. 161 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: Podcast is called I Don't Speak German Anyway. I couldn't 162 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: find the book, but I did find some claims that 163 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: are in the book. In this article, Hitler was a Adolf. 164 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: Hitler was a sexually confused serial killer whose violence was 165 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,239 Speaker 1: driven by lust. In his new book, Mr Volker claims 166 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: the Nazi leader had an orgasm while watching a film 167 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: in which Austrian soldiers massacre French troops. Now this kind 168 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: of story is a treat for me because I've never 169 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: heard of this particular Hitler story before. I'm always I'm 170 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: always looking out for some new uh new h facts. 171 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: So quote he quotes Mary Ann Hop, an actress who 172 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,719 Speaker 1: was an acquaintance of Hitler, describing a time that she 173 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 1: went to the cinema in the dictators Berlin Palace, who 174 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: watched a film called The Rebel. It featured Austrian troops 175 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: hurling boulders from a mountain onto the French below. Hitler 176 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: got some kind of thrill and rubbed his knees at 177 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 1: this event as the stones rolled down on the French 178 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,839 Speaker 1: and groaned. I don't know if he was crazy, but 179 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: he got some kind of orgasm. She said. I wanted 180 00:08:56,280 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: to leave during the show. The man was creepy. Yeah, 181 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: that's um people gave pee Wee Herman a hard time. 182 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: People gave Herman a hard time. You know Hitler in perspective, Yeah, 183 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: if you compare the two, pee Wee should get the statue. 184 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 1: I feel like pee we should have just been left 185 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: to masturbate in that theater. But that's what that theater 186 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: was for. It's what the theater reports, not like he 187 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: was showing up at the cinemark to like showing anyway. Yeah, 188 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: I've been unable to yeah, find an English translation. But 189 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 1: in this article Mr Who, which apparently talked to the author, 190 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: Pilgrim talks about how he suspects there's a connection between 191 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: sexuality and violence and Hitler, and that his sexual excitement 192 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 1: at the thought of violence gave him the desire to 193 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: force men into killing. He says, however, since this lust 194 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 1: for killing is the decisive feature of serial killers, the 195 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: question inevitably arises. Was Hitler a serial killer who murdered 196 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: for the purpose of his gratification. Hitler's sexuality, I believe 197 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: drove the dictator into the most colossal annihilation that man 198 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: has witnessed. Now, that's that's this guy's claims and interesting premise. 199 00:09:57,960 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 1: I can see why a lot of people would want 200 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: to believe that. Um. Mr Pilgrim also speculates but Hitler's 201 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,599 Speaker 1: sex life, claiming he had stained from sexual relations with 202 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: his mistress and then wife, Eva Brown. Now this all 203 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: sounds I think to a lot of people, they might 204 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: read this and be like, Okay, well this this seems 205 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: you know, of course he was crazy. Maybe that makes 206 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: him he was just a serial killer wh wound up 207 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: in charge of the country. I get why people would 208 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: want to believe that. I think what most people looking 209 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: at that wouldn't dig into it is kind of where 210 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 1: the guy is basing his claims on. And most of 211 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: them come from a dude called Ernst han stengel Uh. 212 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: Another nickname was Putsi, and Ernst was classic Putsy. Ernst 213 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: was a friend of Hitler's back in the day who 214 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: then started hating him. And I'm sure they happened with 215 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: a lot of Hitler's friends. That happened. We're not great 216 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: at keeping friends, not super good at friends. And I'll 217 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: be like, oh god, we just do I have to 218 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: answer keep answering his call. I think that might surprise 219 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: a lot of people. Not a good friend, not dictators 220 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: in general, not great friends. No, not not not. They 221 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: just take and they take and they take, they take 222 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: and they take and they take. Some of them are 223 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,079 Speaker 1: fun to drink with, yeah, once or twice. Yeah. Like 224 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 1: if I could go back in time and just see 225 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 1: Stalin and all of his buddies how drunk, of course 226 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:08,599 Speaker 1: I would want to try. I wouldn't want to be 227 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: drunk around Hitler. But Hitler didn't get drunk. He was 228 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: a teetotler. He was a teetotaler. Yeah. I mean he 229 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: was on meth a lot, but that was a doctor 230 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: giving it to him. Yeah, so he yeah, so he 231 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: thought that he was being medicated and he thought that 232 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,599 Speaker 1: and that was you know that when we talked about that, 233 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: and there's a great book called Blitzed about that. Well, 234 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure we'll talk about it someday, but like that 235 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 1: was mostly later in the war, like during his rise 236 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: to power. He's sober. Every now and then you'll hear 237 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 1: a story of him drinking like part of a glass 238 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: of champagne. But he was like yeah, yeah, which is 239 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 1: you know, control freaks and whatnot. Um, So I I 240 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: get the the the desire to like psycho analyze Hitler, 241 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 1: but going to Hampstegel for like advice, because Hanstengel has 242 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: a long time been claiming that Hitler was basically a neuter, 243 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: was like couldn't get off, had like no sexual life. Yeah, 244 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: um well, and that is a thing with a lot 245 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: of serialulers, where like they just can't come until they 246 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,599 Speaker 1: find the thing that makes them right. Yeah. That in 247 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,439 Speaker 1: if you think of Hitler as a serial killer, a 248 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,839 Speaker 1: lot of this stuff makes sense. But I think what 249 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: most people don't realize when they hear stories like this 250 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: about every year or two there will be a new 251 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: rash of Hitler's sex life stories that little hit like 252 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: kind of shadier but not entirely bullshit outlets and stuff, 253 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 1: and then every now and then someone like The New 254 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: Yorker will give it a write up or whatnot. None 255 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: of this is new in the field of hitler ology. 256 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 1: And in fact, like all of these claims any claimed 257 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: that you like read about in like a modern paper 258 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: about like Hitler liking to poop on people, or the 259 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: possibility that it was Hitler was gay. All that stuff 260 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: was kicking around in the nineteen thirties. Um, so there 261 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: there's a lot of myths around this guy. And so 262 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 1: what I want to kind of do today is first 263 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: give kind of an overview of the myths that people 264 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: are still telling about Hitler and kind of the latest 265 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: couple of waves of this, and then we're gonna do 266 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: a really deep dive into his whole sexual history, his relationships, 267 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 1: everything that there is about him in like reputable scott 268 00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: like scholarship. So jez so if you if you and 269 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: Hitler matched on tender and you wanted to google him 270 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: to find out what was really going on, this would 271 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,199 Speaker 1: be the episode to listen to. This would be the 272 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: episode to listen to. Uh And spoiler alert, don't date Hitler. No, 273 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 1: don't date Hitler, No, don't Probably not gonna go. Well. Yeah, 274 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: So back in like a March of two sixteen, I 275 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,199 Speaker 1: came across an article in the Daily Star with the 276 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: title Adolph Hitler was gay and loved teenage boys CIA 277 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: files claim. Uh. There was also a New York Post 278 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: article around the same time with the title Adolf Hitler 279 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,839 Speaker 1: had a truly disgusting sexual fetish. It's equally emblematic of 280 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: like those types of articles. Um, these were all like 281 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 1: Spring of two sixteen wave articles, and they were all 282 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 1: based on a dossier, the oss, which is like a 283 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,839 Speaker 1: precursor of the CIA put together um quote from the 284 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 1: New York Post. The Nazi leader's bedroom habits included a 285 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: love of Pooh sex, claims the dossier from the office 286 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: of Yeah so, which is what ship not dressing up 287 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: like Winnie the Pooh, not dressing up like Winnie the 288 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 1: Poop and looking for hunting. Yeah, the intelligent document says 289 00:13:58,240 --> 00:13:59,959 Speaker 1: that he liked women to stand over him and deaf 290 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: a kate because he was turned on by Pooh. This 291 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 1: is the New York Post keeps you on the word 292 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: pooh instead of feces, which just doesn't seem like great journalism. 293 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: It also revealed the fearer had a micro penis and, 294 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: as the famous song suggests, only one testicle. It also 295 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: revealed he liked to be brutally kicked by women as 296 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: part of his sex games. So again, this is always 297 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: presented whenever it comes up in the media. Is new. 298 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: This is all older than your grandparents. Yeah, this has 299 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: been around forever. It's been around forever. Yeah for sure, 300 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: this was yeah so. Uh. The root of most of 301 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: the salacious Hitler myths is that infamous OSS report titled 302 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: The Mind of Adolf Hitler was compiled by a doctor 303 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: named Langer, and was initially a secret thing that was 304 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: like written up as a brief for FDR at the 305 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 1: start of World War Two. It's based on a lot 306 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 1: of interviews and original documents and the source book behind 307 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: the paper, which is like all of the raw sources 308 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 1: that they compiled to write. This is a gold mine 309 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: of info. But we should be really critical about the 310 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: dossier itself. It has to be taken with as much 311 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: salt as you'd prescribe something written by a psychologist in 312 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: the nineteen forties, because it's filled with really debatable conclusions 313 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: based on bad psychoanalytic theory. I'm going to read you 314 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: one excerpt where doctor Langer tries to explain why Hitler 315 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: always carried around a whip as a young man. Quote. 316 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: Anyone who has ever seen Hitler talking in a bashful, 317 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: impuerile way to a woman would easily be led to 318 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: believe that in marriage he would be the underdog. But 319 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: that is manifestly wrong. It would seem that the whip 320 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: plays some mysterious role in his relationship to women. In 321 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: doctor Sedgwick's opinion, during the almost fifteen years of association 322 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,359 Speaker 1: with Hitler, the whip, with which Hitler loves to gesticulate, 323 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: figures as a kind of substitute or auxiliary symbol for 324 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 1: his missing sexual potency. All this wielding of the whip 325 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 1: seems to be connected with a hidden desire on the 326 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: part of Hitler for some state of erection which would 327 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: overcome his fundamental sexual inferiority complex. The truth is that 328 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: Hitler is, in all probabilities, still in the stage of puberty, 329 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: and still in the essential meaning of the word a virgin. 330 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: I want to take that guy to a renfest. Just 331 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 1: just take a look around, do you make this? Yeah? 332 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: What do you think is going on here? And when 333 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: he referenced his doctor Sedgewick, that's Hans Steel. Yeah, so 334 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: he's this is again all based on that. A lot 335 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: of this is based on that guy's stuff. But like 336 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: Heather was definitely not a virgin, no, no, no, no, no, 337 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: for sure. How old was he when he went into 338 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: World War One? Do you know? Because he was in 339 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: his mid he was in the trenches the whole time. Yeah, yeah, okay, 340 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 1: I got you. So probably not even a virgin at 341 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: that point. It's debatable. We'll get into that a little bit. So, uh, 342 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: just as we kind of criticized that whips were really 343 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: common among German fascists to be used as weapons and 344 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: street fights at this time, and Hitler used his whip 345 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: in street fights a lot. He also used it to 346 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: flirt with girls a lot, So we'll talk about that something. 347 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 1: I that's pretty cool. It was pretty hardcore. Like the 348 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: idea of like a drive by whipping of the day. 349 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: It was more like a bunch of guys that would 350 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: give speeches in these like beer hales, because that's a 351 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: big thing in German culture, and like a bunch of 352 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: anti fascists would crowd around them, and like they would 353 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: start throwing bottles and fighting, and like fucking Hitler would 354 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: pull out his whip and start like swinging whips at 355 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: people and stuff. And you can fuck a dude up 356 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: with you. You can do with it. Holy shit. It's 357 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: a good weapon if you're gonna like beat on somebody 358 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 1: in a bar. Yeah, And it worked for that purpose. 359 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:11,159 Speaker 1: And give Antifa all the whips now, yeah, yeah, I 360 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: mean they take a lot of training, but yeah, yeah, yeah. 361 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: I like Indiana Jones reclaiming the whip for the not 362 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 1: fascist side of things. Appreciate that I've never heard that 363 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 1: Hitler whip thing Hitler loved. You're gonna be hearing a 364 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: lot about Hitler's whip today. Yeah. So, anyway, because of 365 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 1: all of this misinformation, because of all of these like 366 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 1: conclusions that people still tried out based on like nineteen 367 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 1: forties psychoanalytic theory. I have gone through two different Hitler biographies, 368 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: uh the ones I considered probably the two best, John 369 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 1: Totland's and uh Ian Kershaw's, as well as a great 370 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 1: book called Explaining Hitler that's like a synthesis of a 371 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: bunch of different biographies, and I've tried to present what 372 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: I think is the most complete picture of the verifiable 373 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,679 Speaker 1: facts of Hitler's sex life. So, anyway, if we're going 374 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: to understand how Hitler fucked, and help will talk about 375 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 1: how Hitler fucked, we have to start with Hitler's sexual prehistory. 376 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 1: What we know about how his dad fucked, or to 377 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 1: be more precise, who his dad fucked, so well, his 378 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 1: mom at least definitely his mom, definitely, that's a given, 379 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: at least at least twice. Right, because he had a sister. 380 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,239 Speaker 1: You got her sister or something, right, Yeah, I think 381 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: she was a half sister. You know, I remember that 382 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 1: off the top of my head. His genealogy is very complicated. 383 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: So there was a younger girl. There was a girl 384 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 1: in a room in his house, girl Paula Hitler. He 385 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: had a he had a sister, and he actually like 386 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: one of the nice things Hitler did in his life 387 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 1: is that, as a younger man, he gave her his 388 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 1: his inheritance and like wound up kind of on the 389 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: street as a result of that, because she had a 390 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:44,119 Speaker 1: kid and stuff. Um. So, one thing we leave out 391 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 1: a lot when we talked about Hitler's rice to power 392 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: is the army of crusading journalists who have fought a 393 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: desperate battle to stop him from taking control. They failed, obviously, 394 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: and a lot of them died. But for a while, 395 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: their investigations scared Hitler more than anything. He was frightened 396 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,400 Speaker 1: that his family history would be exposed. When he learned 397 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: about one of the first of these investigation sans, he 398 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 1: allegedly told a party member, people must not know who 399 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: I am. They must not know where I come from. Now, 400 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: there are a lot of different rumors as to why. 401 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: The most salacious rumors that Hitler secretly had a Jewish background. 402 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 1: We don't know for certain who his father's father was. 403 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 1: His grandmother, Maria Schickl Gruber, was a forty two year old, 404 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 1: unmarried serving woman when she gave birth to his father 405 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: Alois in eighteen thirty six. Some legends say a wealthy 406 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,399 Speaker 1: Jewish man or a nobleman impregnated her. We don't know 407 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 1: the church she was baptized in, in the entire town 408 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 1: where she was born. Dollar Sheim was obliterated by German artillery, 409 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: probably on Hitler's orders, in order to conceal his background, 410 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: which is serious. Warlord. Move right there, I'll give it 411 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 1: to you. Erase, yeah, get rid of that ship, Grandma. 412 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,640 Speaker 1: One of those things, one of those few places you'll 413 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: catch like a lot of really serious historians speculating is like, 414 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 1: would it have even been possible for a guy with 415 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: the last named Schickel Gruber to have done the things 416 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,159 Speaker 1: that it Hitler did, because it was kind of like 417 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: chance that he wound up with the last name Hitler, 418 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: like his dad adopted it from another guy who probably 419 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 1: wasn't his dad's. It's a messy case. Hitler was the 420 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: original name, and then they changed it to Hitler, and 421 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: I have trouble imagining Hyle Schickel Gruber because people will 422 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: keep stumbling over it. Guer It'd be like if Google 423 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 1: had had if their name had been like question asked, Yeah, exactly, 424 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: it just probably wouldn't have worked as well. No, no, no, 425 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: it definitely would not. So historians debate over the exact 426 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: nature of the genealogy further back than Hitler's dad. But 427 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: his dad was a bastard bad least. Maybe we don't 428 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,360 Speaker 1: even know that much. All of this is still debated. 429 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: The odds that Hitler was ashamed of a secret Jewish 430 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: person in his past, though, are lower than the odds 431 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 1: that he was just worried people would find out his 432 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: dad was gross. Aloys Hitler was a mid level customs 433 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: official in brown Ow, Austria. He had been respected in 434 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 1: the local community, but his middle management image belide the 435 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 1: reality of a man who repeatedly may a children, Eloise's 436 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: cool where it's wondering when pedophiles are going to be 437 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 1: a part of the story. They will be a part 438 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,879 Speaker 1: of this story all the way through? Well, oh am 439 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: I not surprised by that great naziason gross sexual story. Wow. Yeah. 440 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: Everybody focuses on the possibility that there was poosh sex 441 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 1: the stuff that we know is so much grosser than pooping, 442 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 1: like that's whatever. People who were perfectly fine can enjoy 443 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 1: that sort of thing. What we're talking about with Hitler 444 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:34,439 Speaker 1: and his dad, both cases fucked up objectively, Yeah you can. 445 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: You can have consensual posh sex whatever, whatever. Just clean 446 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: your own sheets, clean your own sheets, or pay your 447 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 1: cleaning lady incredibly well, you know, I'm sure there's some 448 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: people who take that job. So Eloise's first wife was 449 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 1: much much older than him, and she died after a 450 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: few years of marriage. Some of the rumors or that 451 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: he married her for her money, which whatever. While Elois 452 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 1: was married, but while his first wife was sick, he 453 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: moved a sixteen year old girl into their home to 454 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: be his serving maid. This girl, Clara, was his niece. 455 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:12,959 Speaker 1: Now cooler now. John Toland, who's one of the pre 456 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: eminent Hitler biographers of all times, uh says that Clara 457 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,159 Speaker 1: was hot quote with abundant dark hair. He claims that 458 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 1: she was quote installed with the Hitler's at an end 459 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: where Alois was already carrying on an affair with the 460 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 1: kitchen maid Francisca. So when Alois his first wife is alive. 461 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 1: He's got this sixteen year old niece who he's hitting on, 462 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,959 Speaker 1: and also this like seventeen year old kitchen maid named Francisca, 463 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: both of whom he's like starting up a thing with 464 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:42,360 Speaker 1: while his first wife is alive and dying. So when 465 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,719 Speaker 1: his first wife died, Alois got her money and married Francisca. 466 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 1: I'm gonna quote now from the fantastic book explaining Hitler. 467 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 1: After his first wife died, developments in the Alois Hitler 468 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 1: household began to take on the appearance of a maimed 469 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: French farce. After a period of living conjugally but without 470 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: the benefit of clergy and with the kitchen maid, while 471 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: simultaneously enjoying the services of the even younger maid and 472 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: niece Clara, he married the older one. Well, good for him, 473 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 1: Good for him picking that seventeen year old, not the 474 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 1: sixteen year old. I guess how old is he at 475 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 1: this point? He is in his forties now. According to 476 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 1: John Toland, Francisco was quote only too aware of how 477 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 1: tempting a pretty maid could be to the success was 478 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: to the susceptible Alois. After the wedding, the first thing 479 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: she did was get rid of Clara. Luckily for Alois, 480 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: his second wife soon died, allowing him to finally realize 481 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: his true dream of marrying his teenage niece. How do 482 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: you know how how did Francesca cancer? It was a 483 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 1: lot of cancer in the Hitler family tree. He was 484 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: kind of scared about not enough cancer among the Hitlers. 485 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: Some juvenile leukemia would have really doubt with some problems 486 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 1: for the world would not often I stand for juvenile leukemia, 487 00:23:53,600 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 1: but for Hitler, get up in them bones out. Oh 488 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 1: so uh. The only thing getting in the way of 489 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: Alois Hitler and his true love with his teenage niece 490 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 1: was the fact that they were very close relatives. They 491 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:14,239 Speaker 1: officially share the same grand uncle, Johann Jorge Hidler. Now, 492 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: even in the late eighteen hundreds, marrying your teenage niece 493 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 1: was sort of frowned upon. Yeah, yeah, I see that. 494 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 1: This is not one of those things where no is 495 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 1: normal at the time, everybody's marrying their sixteen year old 496 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 1: serving girl niece. Alois had to get special dispensation from 497 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 1: the pope to marry and continue fucking his niece. He 498 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: wanted to funck his niece so bad he got papal 499 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 1: approval Oh my god, that's that's Hitler's dad. Just dear pope, 500 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 1: dear Pope, I got my niece. You gotta see this girl. 501 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 1: Let me send you a couple of pictures. I drew 502 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: some creatures just because you chose to be a seller. 503 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 1: But doesn't mean I need to be a sell a 504 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: bit and I'd like to break that with a child 505 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 1: with a child related to, related to and kind of 506 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 1: morally responsible to. Can I give a thumb? Can I 507 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: get a thumbs up? Thumbs up? Thumbs down? What's Catholicism say? 508 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 1: And the pope just said, go for it, go for it. Yeah, 509 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: Hitler's dad had every official papal permission to fuck his niece. 510 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: All popes are great, never done anything wrong. What a 511 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 1: great thing to exist a pope? Hitler is Catholic? Oh yeah, 512 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 1: I mean Hitler didn't really give a ship. Well, I 513 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 1: mean he was a hitlerst Yeah, like technically I guess 514 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,640 Speaker 1: on the paper. Yeah, And at that point in Austria, 515 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 1: you're not going to not you gotta be straight with 516 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,439 Speaker 1: the Catholic Church. It's Austria. It's Austria in the late 517 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 1: eight hundreds. How does this guy not get like the 518 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: sin guilt ship worked into him. I mean, he might have. 519 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: I assumed there were a lot. I assume there was talk. 520 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,359 Speaker 1: I assume people were like, it's kind of fucked up, right, 521 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,959 Speaker 1: but it feels so bad about sucking my niece child. Well, 522 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:56,400 Speaker 1: I don't know if he did, but I'm gonna I'm 523 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: gonna guess people in town, and there were some like 524 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: but you know, those people all died of typhus, you know, 525 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: so we don't know what they were talking about. Not 526 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:13,400 Speaker 1: enough all them austrious, Okay. So to make things even creepier, 527 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: According to Ron Rosenbaum's explaining Hitler quote, even after the 528 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 1: Vatican granted the dispensation, Clara continued to call her new 529 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 1: husband what she called him when she was still his 530 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:26,160 Speaker 1: maid mistress uncle. So Hitler's mom called his dad uncle 531 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,679 Speaker 1: the whole time Hitler was a kid. That's worse than 532 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: when parents call each other mother and father. Yeah, that's 533 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:36,640 Speaker 1: grosser than that's like Mike pince Ship on another law Yeah, yeah, 534 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 1: my uncle. Yeah, it's gross. It's really gross, really nasty. Yeah, 535 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: this is the relationship Adolf Hitler was born into. So 536 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: I'm not going to say in fairness to Hitler because 537 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: you don't give Hitler credit for anything because he's Hitler. Yeah, 538 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,880 Speaker 1: but as a baby, that's a rough situation to land in. Yeah. Also, 539 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 1: this is some classic uncle bullshit. Yeah, you always got 540 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: a good uncle in a bad When you got a 541 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: bad uncle, is nothing worse than a bad uncle. Hitler's 542 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 1: dad was like the platonic ideal of a bad uncle, 543 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: like the uncle that everyone's like, can he not come to? 544 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 1: Can you not have him around? Please? Just put that 545 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: uncle out of everything. Okay. So Hitler's dad marries two 546 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 1: women that Hitler biographer Ian Kershaw describes as young enough 547 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: to be his children. As a dad, he's remembered generally 548 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: as a strict authoritarian figure, but most people who knew 549 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 1: the family when his dad was alive say that Alois 550 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,360 Speaker 1: wasn't you know, particularly violent or bad by the standards 551 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: of the time towards his kid or his wife. We 552 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: would probably almost certainly call the discipline that Hitler endured 553 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 1: child abuse today, but it was not out of the 554 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 1: norm for the area, and most of the boys in 555 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 1: Austria who grew up around Hitler didn't grow up to 556 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: be Hitler. So you don't want to put too much 557 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: influence on the fact that his dad was an authoritarian. 558 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,199 Speaker 1: But a lot of the boys around Hitler did grow 559 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,679 Speaker 1: up to be Nazis, So let's not discount the impact 560 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 1: of authoritarian parenting either. But it's probably not what we're 561 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 1: looking for for looking for the whole reason Hitler went 562 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 1: all crazy, the fact that his dad hit him sometimes. Yeah, exactly, 563 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 1: it's like, that's not going to be that doesn't that's 564 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: a real a Z Yeah. Next, yeah, exactly. You're you're 565 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 1: leaving out some stuff if you if you drop it 566 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 1: down to that, um my uncle, father, my uncle, my uncle, daddy, 567 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: Jesus oh Hitler. Uh. So we're going to dig into 568 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: Hitler as a young man in his early love affairs 569 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 1: and spoilers. They're as creepy as everything else in this 570 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: podcast is going to be. I'm not surprised if you 571 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: thought Hitler the dad was bad. No, Yeah, there's no 572 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: way like Hitler. Adolph is like a lothario coming from 573 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: this place at all. Know what surprising is how much 574 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: like Elliott Roger he is. Oh, I'm not surprised that 575 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: like fucking losers. Of course, that is the overwhelming thing 576 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: that you say to yourself when you get into some 577 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: real deep study of the Nazis. Is these fucking losers? 578 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: You can say, Uh, you know who's not losers though, Brandy, 579 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: the wonderful sponsors who support this show and or program 580 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 1: with their products and or services and or add Petro dollar, 581 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: add money. I'm spinning out of control here. Products We're back, boy. 582 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: I love those products. Hate Hitler hate exactly. And there's 583 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 1: nothing that's a squeegee for your brain as well as 584 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: a solid product or just a nice service, especially on 585 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: like a hot Hitler full day, just like being told 586 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 1: the possibility, the possibilities. You know what. Nazis didn't like possibilities, 587 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 1: but that's what you get with products and services, possibilities. 588 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: A lot of good economic discourse coming out of this episode. 589 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: We should write a book. Let's write another Hitler book. 590 00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: There weren't enough of their There should be a couple 591 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 1: more hit Their books. Okay, so most of our what 592 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: Hitler think about square space? Yeah? Why would Hitler think 593 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: about square space? I don't like the free speech of 594 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 1: the internet. You know, I hate to say this because 595 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: it's what I do to make my living. But Hitler 596 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 1: would a thousand percent be a podcaster if you were 597 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 1: around the day. Absolutely. I mean, he like wrote at 598 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 1: length about how the best way, the only real way 599 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: to convince anyone of anything was with the human voice, 600 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: and like the power of like radio to isolate someone 601 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 1: with a voice and to really influence their thought, which 602 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 1: is one of the things that scares me about the 603 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: podcast era. But we're getting Yeah, he would be like 604 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: an Alex Jones type, but with his own show. Yeah, 605 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: but like, yeah, he would be a lot more popular 606 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 1: than Alex. Yeah he would because I don't think Alex 607 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: has a problem saying the quiet parts loud, and Hitler was, 608 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: up until the point where he took power, usually pretty 609 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: good about quietly saying the loud parts. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, 610 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 1: I mean that's why he won. Yeah yeah yeah. So 611 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: most of our evidence for young Hitler's early love affairs 612 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: comes from a dude named August Kubazek. Now. Kubazek is 613 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: a heavily debated figure amongst Hitler scholars. He wrote a 614 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 1: book about his childhood with Hitler after the war. Uh. 615 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 1: It apparently started during the Third Reich as a pro 616 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 1: Hitler like Nazi biography, and then after the war he 617 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: was like, well, I mean I've already got this stuff down. 618 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: People are gonna want to know what Hitler was like 619 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 1: as a kid. So I'm gonna write this book. Um. 620 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: Some of what he says is definitely either a lie 621 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 1: or stretching the truth. There's a lot of debate over 622 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: how much to trust him. But it's also incontrovertible that 623 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: he grew up with Hitler, that he was Hitler's really 624 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 1: only friend as a kid, and that they lived together. 625 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 1: They were essentially like freshman college roommates in the big city. 626 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 1: Like so he no one else has this perspective. So 627 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 1: kubas Ex book is an irreplaceable source for the early 628 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: years of Hitler's life. You can't under like you have 629 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 1: to you have to be critically read him. You have 630 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: to read him. Um. I've read kubaz x book, of course, 631 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 1: and it's really interesting. If you do take it, I 632 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: would recommend reading like a John Toland or and Ian 633 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: Kershaw biography first and then go into kubas Ex. Got 634 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 1: some sort of context for it. Um, I'm gonna be 635 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 1: quoting from all three of these sources in the next 636 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 1: little bit here because it provides any good synthesis, and 637 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: I trust those guys to separate probable truth from probable 638 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: live better than I trust myself because they're elderly Hitler 639 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: scholars and I'm just a Hitler nerd anyway, perfect Kubazek 640 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: recalls exactly one romantic focus for Hitler in his young years, 641 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: a girl named Stephanie who lived in Lenz. That was 642 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: the small town that he grew up in. Now. Hitler 643 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: was madly in love with Stephanie, and we have no 644 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: evidence that she ever knew anything about him. In fact, 645 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 1: later in life after the war, when she was told 646 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: that Adolf Hitler had been in love with her, she 647 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 1: was shocked and horrified, Which is it's a dick move 648 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: to tell any what that O, man, what a bummer, 649 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 1: because you're just like, am I responsible? Like you get 650 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 1: through this horrible war. She was an Austria, she saw 651 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: some ship. It would have been a nightmare for anyone 652 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: living at that age. And you get through this horrible war, 653 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: and then like years later, someone's like, by the way, 654 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: Hitler wanted to fuck you? What would you ever tell 655 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 1: anybody that process that baby, we're pop and boners? Do 656 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: you don't don't tell her that, yeah, because then that 657 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: just makes you just rethink everything about this my fault. No, Stephanie, 658 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,479 Speaker 1: you didn't. Definitely you didn't do anything wrong. I mean 659 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 1: you've been dead for decades, but you seem fine. You're 660 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 1: listening somewhere. Yeah, we get a medium. Should be doing 661 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: this podcast with a medium to contact some of these 662 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: people and be like hey, um it's okay, Yeah, it's 663 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: gonna be fine. Yeah. That's actually similar to another podcast 664 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 1: idea I have, which is using a medium to sexually 665 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 1: harass dead bastards. I really just want to like see 666 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 1: how uncomfortable I can make Chairman now. Oh yeah, yeah, 667 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 1: like really really get in there and like Locke has 668 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 1: ghost in a room. Yeah, I see where it goes. 669 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 1: I am on board that. I think we all are, 670 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 1: So if you want to. So Hitler was in love 671 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: with this girl who knew nothing about him. He became convinced. 672 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 1: And while they're in like elementary school essentially like early 673 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: high school era, that kind of thing. Like he's a teenager, 674 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: young teenager. So during this I was in marching band, 675 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,360 Speaker 1: I had one of these kids. Exactly what this is. 676 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a woman I've met who 677 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:12,879 Speaker 1: didn't have one of these kids in their life. That's 678 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: one of the anyway. Hitler became convinced that Stephanie was 679 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 1: sending him secret signals and the messages only he could see, 680 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,399 Speaker 1: and he would yeah, yeah, they were destined to be together. 681 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: He would rant about all this to Kubazek, and Kubazek 682 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 1: claims he was pretty like questioning of all this stuff 683 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 1: to Hitler, but like only to an extent um. Kubazek 684 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 1: did try to convince Hitler that if he needed to 685 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:35,360 Speaker 1: at least talk to this girl, if there's going to 686 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: be any hope of her liking him, at the very least, 687 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,320 Speaker 1: He suggested that Hitler should learn to dance, because he 688 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: knew that Stephanie liked dancing, which is like solid advice, like, okay, 689 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 1: get get interested in something that's girls interested in have 690 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: a similar interest. Pretty solid advice today. So here's Kubazek quote, 691 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:55,759 Speaker 1: all this is no good, adolph I replied, Stephanie is 692 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 1: fond of dancing. If you want to conquer her, you 693 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 1: will have to dance around just as aimlessly an idio 694 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 1: atically as the others. That was all that was needed 695 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,240 Speaker 1: to set him off. Raving, no, no, never, he screamed 696 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 1: at me, I shall never dance do you understand Stephanie 697 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 1: only dances because she is forced to by society, on 698 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 1: which she unfortunately depends. Once she is my wife, she 699 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: won't have the slightest desire to dance. That is, and 700 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,800 Speaker 1: Kuba's ex books are generally pretty pro Hitler book like 701 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,280 Speaker 1: not pro the stuff Hitler did is like he's obviously 702 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 1: against the Third Reich, but like he presents a sympathetic 703 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 1: view of Hitler. And this is how he describes it. 704 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 1: What a I mean, what a little maniac. It isn't 705 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: the source for the word loser. It's truly insane. Like, no, 706 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:40,359 Speaker 1: I'll never dance, She'll stop dancing. She'll stop dancing too, 707 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 1: She's not even dancing because she wants to society get away. 708 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 1: It sounds like a Reddit post. Totally sounds like redditost'. 709 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,840 Speaker 1: He would be he would be so addicted to slash 710 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,320 Speaker 1: Pole like he would he would never get off of 711 00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: that fucking ship. He'd be an h Chan like he'd 712 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 1: be deep into this ship. Yeah, I'm not gonna learn 713 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 1: to dance. Never. I shall never dance, Alf Hitler. Here's 714 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 1: your fucking T shirt. Guilty feet and got no rhythm? 715 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 1: Oh ship? Nice? Oh boy? What are the good songs. 716 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: They always they always get it right. So exactly actually 717 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 1: about Hitler. It is about all music is about Hitler, 718 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:30,760 Speaker 1: one way or the other. My theory, We'll talk about 719 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 1: Toto's Africa. It's it's a it's a stretch, but I'll 720 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 1: get you there. Now. I got a diagram, it's about 721 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 1: the desert fox. And now, obviously, waiting around and being 722 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:47,880 Speaker 1: an insane person did not woo Stephanie. Gradually, Hitler started 723 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 1: to realize that she wasn't going to fall to him. 724 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 1: According to Kubazak, Hitler reacted like you'd expect a modern 725 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,240 Speaker 1: day insult to react with threats of violence. Of course, 726 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 1: Stephanie was at that time in an unfriendly mood. She 727 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: would pass the basically nearby road with her face averted, 728 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 1: as though Hitler did not exist at all. This bought 729 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,600 Speaker 1: brought him to the verge of despair. I can't stand 730 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 1: it any longer, he exclaimed. I will make an end 731 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 1: of it. It was the first, and as far as 732 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,280 Speaker 1: I know, the last time that Adolf contemplated suicide. Seriously, 733 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:15,560 Speaker 1: it was not uh. He would jump into the river 734 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: from the Danube bridge, he told me, and then it 735 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,840 Speaker 1: would be over and done with, but Stephanie would have 736 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 1: to die with him. He insisted on that. Once more, 737 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:24,919 Speaker 1: a plan was thought up in all its details. Every 738 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 1: single phase of the horrifying tragedy was minutely described, including 739 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,760 Speaker 1: the part I would have to play. Even my conduct 740 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 1: of this as the sole survivor was ordained. The somber 741 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:38,720 Speaker 1: scene was with me even in my dreams. Young Hitler, God, 742 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 1: just the most emo little ship kill himself and a 743 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 1: girl he doesn't know him. Had he even talked to 744 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: her at this point, as far as we know that, 745 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 1: he never said a word to her. Oh my god, 746 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 1: I just you can't hate him more, but you can. 747 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 1: You find new depths, You find new depths of yet 748 00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:02,880 Speaker 1: like Hitler, here's a new cavity of hate having filled 749 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 1: for you. I didn't expect this fucking loser. So you 750 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: know that he's a loser. And then it's just like 751 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 1: from this age too, you're like, oh, God, just go 752 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 1: to a toastmaster's class or something, new, piece of ship. 753 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 1: This is part of why I get all frustrated when 754 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: people are like, he was a sexual serial killer and 755 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,359 Speaker 1: that's why, No, dude, he was just a lay mass dude. 756 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 1: He's for sure like Ane. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I am 757 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:30,839 Speaker 1: older old this woman, and she doesn't deserve to live 758 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 1: if she doesn't like me, even though I've never even 759 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:35,320 Speaker 1: talked to her. Like. There were his parents together, his 760 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:37,320 Speaker 1: entire His dad died when he was, you know, in 761 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: his teens, and his mom died. Not all that, I mean, 762 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 1: his dad died when he was pretty young, and his 763 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 1: mom died also when he was pretty young, like a 764 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 1: young adult, So I don't think he had His dad 765 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 1: was pretty authoritarian, but once his dad kicked off, it 766 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 1: was kind of just his mom and she was sort 767 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:52,880 Speaker 1: of he was a mom's boy. She was sort of 768 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 1: a doting mom. Clara, Yeah, Clara Hitler, Clara Hitler, Yeah, 769 00:38:56,680 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 1: yeah Hitler. Adolf Hitler's mom was Clara. Okay, okay, gotcha. Yeah. 770 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 1: So's he's born an incest and then his dad dies 771 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 1: and then he's raised away. Okay, gotcha? Yeah yeah, so um. 772 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,919 Speaker 1: Outside of his obsession with Stephanie, Kubazex says he doesn't 773 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: know of any individual women in Hitler's life in this period, 774 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 1: certainly no one he might have fucked. When they became 775 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 1: young adults and moved to Vienna together, hit the remained 776 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:24,960 Speaker 1: unlate here's John Toland's coverage of Kubaze's recollection quote. On promenades, 777 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 1: girls and women would often slightly glance at them. At first, 778 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 1: Kubazek thought their interest was directed to him, but it 779 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 1: soon became apparent that the reserved Adolph was the object. 780 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,799 Speaker 1: He coldly ignored their silent invitations if the two did 781 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,479 Speaker 1: nothing about sex. They spent hours at night discussing women, 782 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 1: love and marriage, with Adolph, as usual, dominating the conversation. 783 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 1: Over and over. He insisted that he must keep the 784 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 1: flame of life pure. That is, he believed, in accordance 785 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 1: with his Catholic upbringing, a man and a woman should 786 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 1: keep themselves chased in body and soul until marriage, and 787 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 1: just thus be worthy of producing healthy children for the nation. 788 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 1: But the dark side of sex also haunted him, and 789 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 1: he talked by the hour about depraved sexual customs. He 790 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,840 Speaker 1: railed against prostitution, condemning not only the horrors and their customers, 791 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 1: but society. His condemnation approached obsession, and one night, after 792 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 1: attending a performance of Wittikins Spring Awakening, he took Gustal's 793 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 1: arm and said, we must see the sink of iniquity. 794 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 1: Once they turned down a small dark alley it was 795 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,319 Speaker 1: the spittelberg Gassa, and walked past a row of small 796 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,479 Speaker 1: hostels so brightly lit that they could see the girls 797 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:25,399 Speaker 1: inside and their scanty and slovenly attire. They sat there, 798 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 1: recalled Kubazek, making up their faces and combing their hair 799 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 1: and looking at themselves in the mirror, without, however, for 800 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 1: one moment, losing sight of the men strolling by. Occasionally 801 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: a man would stop in front of a house converse 802 00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:37,400 Speaker 1: with a girl, and the light would go out. When 803 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:39,400 Speaker 1: the two youths reached the end of the alley, Adolf 804 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 1: maneuvered them in an about face, and they took another 805 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 1: long look at the appalling site. Back in their room, 806 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 1: Adolf went into a lengthy tirade on the evils of prostitution, 807 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 1: with quote a cold objectivity, as though it were a 808 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,320 Speaker 1: question of his attitude towards the fight against tubercy losis 809 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:58,360 Speaker 1: or towards cremation. So this is young Hitler, h celibate, 810 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 1: angry about other people not being celibate, and uh a 811 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 1: real thought, audit level hatred of sex workers. He is 812 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 1: gallons of coming his sleep at this point in his life. 813 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,760 Speaker 1: I mean every fucking night. What a what a shitty 814 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:23,319 Speaker 1: little His socks shatter when they're tried. Seriously, I cannot imagine, 815 00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 1: like how many fucking wet dreams is due to this happen, 816 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,800 Speaker 1: And they're all about the stuff that he says. Is terrible, 817 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,320 Speaker 1: because that's why you rant about this for hours to 818 00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 1: your best friend and you're like concealing an erection as 819 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 1: he yells about prostitution out there trying to make a 820 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,480 Speaker 1: living of any kind in this world. Again, we all 821 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:47,400 Speaker 1: knew a Hitler. We've all known this kid. No, absolutely, 822 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,360 Speaker 1: Oh god, yeah, it's the one that he's like that. 823 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 1: That's like one of the names that you text the 824 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:53,600 Speaker 1: other people you went to high school with that you 825 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 1: just laugh about when you hear their name, like remember 826 00:41:56,160 --> 00:42:00,200 Speaker 1: that guy, Oh fuck yeah, oh that guy. Yeah. You know. 827 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,160 Speaker 1: So Hitler's mom died like right before this point of 828 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 1: like a really really horrifying cancer. Uh. And then you 829 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:10,520 Speaker 1: know he would have been with Kubazek, which is where 830 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:12,960 Speaker 1: that happened. They lived together for a while, but Kubazek 831 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 1: was successful, like he was a really good musician and Hitler, 832 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 1: you know, didn't get in the art school. That's a 833 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,880 Speaker 1: pretty famous story. He eventually ran out of money and 834 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,000 Speaker 1: wound up living in a men's home, which was essentially 835 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 1: like a homeless shelter for vagrant. According to Ian Kershaw, 836 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 1: being homeless did not improve Hitler's game. Yeah, I can't 837 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:35,800 Speaker 1: imagine that would quote fair home wouldn't have have approved 838 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:37,840 Speaker 1: his game. It seems like he was kind of helpless 839 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:41,720 Speaker 1: either way. I don't would have helped him. Yeah. Quote. 840 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 1: When his circle of acquaintances got round to discussing women 841 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: and doubtless their own former girlfriends and sexual experiences, the 842 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 1: best Hitler could come up with was a veiled reference 843 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 1: to Stephanie, who had been his first love, though she 844 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:53,600 Speaker 1: never knew it because he never told her. The impression 845 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 1: left with Reinhold Hannisch was that Hitler had very little 846 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 1: respect for the female sex but very austeer ideas about 847 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,920 Speaker 1: relations between men and women. Hainish recalled Hitler telling him 848 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: of a brief encounter with a milkmaid while he was 849 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 1: still at school, ending abruptly when she made advances and 850 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 1: he ran away, knocking over a churn of milk in 851 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:11,400 Speaker 1: his haste. This was probably a lie by Hitler. Hitler 852 00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:14,800 Speaker 1: described his own ideal woman as cuddle is a cute, cuddly, 853 00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 1: naive little thing, tender, sweet and stupid. Cool. Cool, that's great. Well, 854 00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 1: I mean it runs in his blood. Does run in 855 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 1: his blood? Yeah? God, it's gonna be weird how much 856 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:46,759 Speaker 1: it runs in his blood. But first we're back, okay. So. 857 00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:50,440 Speaker 1: Hitler also claimed during this period that women would inherently 858 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:53,880 Speaker 1: quote rather bow to a strong man than dominate a weakling. 859 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:56,360 Speaker 1: Even for the time young Hitler was seen as a 860 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 1: bit of a prude. This meant he didn't fit in 861 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 1: super well. In turn of this in reb where erotic 862 00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:03,320 Speaker 1: art was in vogue and people were starting to do 863 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,319 Speaker 1: the nineteen o nine version of opening up a little bit, 864 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 1: what's because he's just like popping boner's all over the 865 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 1: just popping. Everyone could see his leader housing is just 866 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 1: like a fucking arrow. Yeah. And it's just like constantly 867 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 1: just like very sweaty and pink with a giant, angry 868 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 1: direct terrible artists screaming at everybody and talking about how 869 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 1: it's bad to come get Hitler like god nerd um. So. 870 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 1: One of the things that was happening in Vien at 871 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: this time the turn of the century is that rules 872 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 1: about women's modesty had started to change and women were 873 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 1: allowed to. I mean, we're not talking like woke by 874 00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 1: our standards, but things are improving, you know, things are improving, 875 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:49,719 Speaker 1: and some women are pushing the envelope, both professionally and 876 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 1: just how they present themselves to the world. Young Hitler 877 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 1: did not like that, of course. Here's exert from Kershaw's 878 00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 1: book again quote where decency demanded that women were scarcely 879 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 1: allowed to even show an ankle. Hitler's embarrassment and the 880 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 1: rapidity with which he fled with his friend when a 881 00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 1: prospective landlady, during a search for a room for Kubazek, 882 00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:09,800 Speaker 1: let her silk dressing gown fall open to reveal that 883 00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:12,360 Speaker 1: she was wearing nothing but a pair of knickers. But 884 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:14,880 Speaker 1: his pritishness went far beyond this. It amounted, according to 885 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,400 Speaker 1: kuba's E's account, to a deep disgust and repugnance at 886 00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,759 Speaker 1: sexual activity. Hitler avoided contact with women, meeting with cold 887 00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 1: indifference during visits to the opera, alleged attempts by young women, 888 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,160 Speaker 1: probably seeing him as something of an oddity, to flirt 889 00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:28,840 Speaker 1: with or tease him. He was repelled by homosexuality. He 890 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 1: refrained from masturbation. Prostitution horrified but fascinated him. He associated 891 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 1: it with venereal disease, which petrified him. So it is 892 00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:40,680 Speaker 1: again hard to say how much of kuba's 's account 893 00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 1: is true. If Hitler was originally super anti gay, for example, 894 00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: he definitely got over that ship by the time he 895 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:48,360 Speaker 1: was out of the army. Ernst Rome, the head of 896 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,759 Speaker 1: the brown Shirts, was a flamboyantly gay man who was 897 00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,839 Speaker 1: flagrant about his love life. Hitler did eventually kill Rome, 898 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:56,360 Speaker 1: but only after he was in power, and some accounts 899 00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:58,600 Speaker 1: say he resisted doing so for a very long time 900 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:01,640 Speaker 1: and expressed angst over the dectitian. Basically, Rome wanted to 901 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 1: replace the German Army with the brown Shirts, and that's 902 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 1: why Hitler had to get rid of him. And there 903 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:07,479 Speaker 1: was definitely like he was willing to kill him because 904 00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:09,400 Speaker 1: he was gay and he was seen as like a liability. 905 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:12,800 Speaker 1: But Hitler wasn't inherently against the idea of working with 906 00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 1: like he see. It seems like he moderated on that 907 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,719 Speaker 1: as during his time in the army, at least from 908 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,720 Speaker 1: like a one point of view or another. There's debate 909 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 1: about how much. But one thing that didn't change from 910 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:27,080 Speaker 1: Kubaze's memory of him was Hitler's obsession with innereal disease. 911 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: The subject came up frequently in mind camp and in 912 00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 1: Hitler's early speeches. He generally like would compare the Jewish 913 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,239 Speaker 1: refugees immigrating to the country is like a form of 914 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:39,000 Speaker 1: vinereal disease. And there was a lot of anti Semitic 915 00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 1: claims that Jewish prostitutes were spreading typhus. And there's actually 916 00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:45,480 Speaker 1: a rumor that Hitler himself got syphilis from a prostitute sometime, 917 00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:48,280 Speaker 1: and like when he was a young adult. Semon Visenthal, 918 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,560 Speaker 1: the fame Nazi hunter, went to his grave believing this, 919 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:52,600 Speaker 1: even though there's no good evidence about it. There's a 920 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:55,920 Speaker 1: lot of weird questions as to why people is someone 921 00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:58,279 Speaker 1: like Visenthal, who was a Holocaust however himself would be 922 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:02,680 Speaker 1: so much like into one to believe this. Yeah, you 923 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 1: and like it's also there's like some weird A lot 924 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 1: of the attempts to explain Hitler kind of come across 925 00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:13,920 Speaker 1: as blaming a single Jewish person for his hatred of 926 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:18,960 Speaker 1: Jewish people, which is really problematic. Yeah. Kubazek, for his part, 927 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:21,520 Speaker 1: always claimed that Hitler was to the best of his knowledge, 928 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 1: a normal dude sexually uh, not homosexual, not into anything weird, 929 00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:31,799 Speaker 1: just like kind of a sexually frustrated young man. Um 930 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 1: Kubazek was so emphatic about that because by the nineteen fifties, 931 00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 1: when he was working on his book, there were numerous 932 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:40,560 Speaker 1: rumors that Hitler had been gay. This conspiracy theory is 933 00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,240 Speaker 1: best embodied by the book The Pink Swastika from nineteen 934 00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 1: That book was a major source for a reason Denis 935 00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 1: dis Is a documentary where Denis claims that democrats of 936 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:51,840 Speaker 1: the modern Nazis and that gay people are Nazis and 937 00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 1: Hitler was gay as a regular headline and far right publications. 938 00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:58,440 Speaker 1: I found one on Breitbart from two thousands sixteen that 939 00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:00,759 Speaker 1: just said new evidence from his doctor there shows Hitler 940 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,399 Speaker 1: was gay. Obviously it's not new evidence, it's just it's 941 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:08,160 Speaker 1: it's the old OSS reports that suggested Hitler was homosexual. Uh. 942 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:11,239 Speaker 1: In the OSS document, Dr Langer wrote, quote, his sex 943 00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:14,120 Speaker 1: life is as dualist political outlook. He's both a homosexual 944 00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:18,680 Speaker 1: and heterosexual, both socialist and fervent nationalists, both man and woman. Again, 945 00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 1: that's just like psycho and like bullshit. There's there's no 946 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,040 Speaker 1: evidence that he was homosexual, he was okay with working 947 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:27,440 Speaker 1: with gay men, but like there's no evidence beyond that, 948 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:29,440 Speaker 1: and it's like, yeah, one of the things that's interesting 949 00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:30,520 Speaker 1: to me is when you read a lot of like 950 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:34,760 Speaker 1: the old nineteen thirties and late twenties news articles criticizing Hitler. 951 00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:39,480 Speaker 1: A lot of these like nineteen twenties German journalists, some 952 00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:43,560 Speaker 1: of whom are conservative, when they're talking about like homosexuality 953 00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:45,840 Speaker 1: with the Nazi Party, go out of their way to 954 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 1: not condemn homosexuality, to just be like that, we're condemning 955 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:52,320 Speaker 1: the Nazis because their attitudes on homosexuality are so negative, 956 00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:54,440 Speaker 1: but they have all these gay members, which is more 957 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:57,719 Speaker 1: nuanced than I expected out of like nineteen twenties journalists 958 00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:00,160 Speaker 1: in Germany. Interesting, Well, it does like a out of 959 00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:03,760 Speaker 1: sense though, because it's like, i mean, coming after World 960 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:06,320 Speaker 1: War One, you're in the trenches with men, and you 961 00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 1: need some kind of comfort to probably a lot of 962 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:11,400 Speaker 1: dudes fucking in World War One, share Yeah, yeah, just 963 00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:14,279 Speaker 1: to feel like you're a person and not just part 964 00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 1: of a meat grinder. Yeah, you know. So it's like 965 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:19,920 Speaker 1: I'm sure that definitely, you know, part of why attitudes 966 00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 1: started to open up right until the Nazis claimed them 967 00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:25,239 Speaker 1: shut again. Yeah, exactly. Now, Just so we covered the 968 00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:27,880 Speaker 1: basics of Hitler's life here. Hitler served in World War One. Obviously, 969 00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:30,160 Speaker 1: he was at the front basically the entire war. There 970 00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 1: are rumors, as we covered in our Children of Dictator's episode, 971 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 1: that he fathered a son with a frenchwoman during this time. 972 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:40,120 Speaker 1: This is very much doubted by historians, the kind of 973 00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 1: thing you can't hundred percent debunk um. But for what 974 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:45,080 Speaker 1: it's worth, the son of the guy who thought he 975 00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:47,520 Speaker 1: was Hitler's son says that Hitler was a gentle lover 976 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:50,400 Speaker 1: to his grandma. I don't know what that's based on. 977 00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 1: Seems like a reach. It seems like a weird flex too. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 978 00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:59,320 Speaker 1: a gentle of here's the thing, I don't even know. 979 00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:02,920 Speaker 1: I felt he would be just like a petrified guy 980 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:04,920 Speaker 1: that would like come really quickly, and I'm going to 981 00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:08,160 Speaker 1: guess that is more accurate. Yeah, that feels way like, yeah, 982 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:10,760 Speaker 1: he's probably all fucking talk and then he's just like okay, 983 00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:15,839 Speaker 1: little sorry, yeah, oh no, because I'm sorry. That's that's 984 00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:21,000 Speaker 1: the Hitler. Now. When Hitler got back from World War One, 985 00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,480 Speaker 1: he was sent by his military superiors to infiltrate a 986 00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:27,080 Speaker 1: meeting of the National Socialist Political Party. And yeah, you 987 00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:29,919 Speaker 1: know the rest more or less. Uh. He started giving 988 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:33,439 Speaker 1: speeches there, became a figure in the National Socialist Party, 989 00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 1: consolidated power and plotted his you know, not quite meteoric, 990 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:39,880 Speaker 1: but eventually total rise to power. Now, we don't have 991 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:43,320 Speaker 1: a whole lot on Hitler's sexuality during the early nineteen 992 00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:46,320 Speaker 1: twenties or his relationships. Haunch Stengel is one of the 993 00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:49,560 Speaker 1: main sources for the claims that Hitler might have been gay. Uh, 994 00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:53,359 Speaker 1: and he said stuff like this quote. Obvious prostitutes barely 995 00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:56,319 Speaker 1: admitted to the kaiser Hof Hotel were fervently admired by him, 996 00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:58,640 Speaker 1: provided that they appeared in couples or with a man. 997 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 1: A solitary woman is usually ignored by him, unless he 998 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:04,160 Speaker 1: is in a large crowd and can send in someone 999 00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:06,600 Speaker 1: to find out her identity. He always wishes to be 1000 00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:09,080 Speaker 1: a spectator, do you know, he once said to doctor 1001 00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:12,200 Speaker 1: Sedgwick in nineteen the audience at the circus is just 1002 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:14,799 Speaker 1: like a woman. Someone who does not understand that intrinsically 1003 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:17,840 Speaker 1: feminine character of the mass will never be an effective speaker. 1004 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:22,280 Speaker 1: Ask yourself. What does a woman expect from a man? Clearness, decision, power, action. 1005 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 1: Like a woman, the masses fluctuate between extremes. What we 1006 00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:27,319 Speaker 1: want is to get the masses to act. This can 1007 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:29,600 Speaker 1: obviously not be done with an appeal to their selfishness, 1008 00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:32,040 Speaker 1: nor to their cowardice, but by an appeal to their idealism, 1009 00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:34,719 Speaker 1: their courage, and their spirit of sacrifice. Who has more 1010 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:36,920 Speaker 1: the spirit of sacrifice than a woman? If she has 1011 00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:39,479 Speaker 1: talked to properly, she will be proud to sacrifice, because 1012 00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:41,800 Speaker 1: no woman will ever feel that her life sacrifices have 1013 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:46,720 Speaker 1: received their dual fulfillment. Let's Hitler analyzing the German people 1014 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:51,520 Speaker 1: and interesting, Yeah, you know just what a first date? 1015 00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:54,440 Speaker 1: But a first date? Uh. Han Stengel claims to have 1016 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:56,759 Speaker 1: asked him once, why don't you marry? And he says, 1017 00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:59,359 Speaker 1: Hitler answered, quote marriage is not for me and never 1018 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 1: will be. My only bride is my motherland. Then, seemingly 1019 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 1: with no sequence of ideas, he added, there are two 1020 00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:07,160 Speaker 1: ways in which a man's character may be judged, by 1021 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 1: the woman he marries and by the way he dies. 1022 00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:13,440 Speaker 1: When Hanstengel once playfully said, if not a bride, you 1023 00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:16,080 Speaker 1: want to have a mistress. Hitler replied, politics is a 1024 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,560 Speaker 1: woman he who loves her unhappily bites off his head. 1025 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:21,520 Speaker 1: So this is one of the versions of Hitler. You 1026 00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:24,880 Speaker 1: get that he's just too busy being the embodiment of 1027 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 1: Germany to to flirt with ladies. What a I think 1028 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,239 Speaker 1: in this day he continues that line the rest of 1029 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,560 Speaker 1: his life. I think in this stage it's not true, 1030 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:37,120 Speaker 1: but he's not actually dating around that much, and in 1031 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:39,800 Speaker 1: this stage he's still too awkward. He starts to have 1032 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,920 Speaker 1: success with women when he gets popular, Yeah, when he 1033 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,319 Speaker 1: starts getting some power, because then it's not about him, 1034 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:48,680 Speaker 1: it's about the mythic thing that he's created. And in 1035 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:51,480 Speaker 1: that case, he keeps saying that out loud and hiding 1036 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 1: his relationships with women. But he's also fucking some people. 1037 00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:58,480 Speaker 1: So anyway, that's the that's the way this goes. Uh. 1038 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:01,319 Speaker 1: So it's hard basically possible to say when Hitler lost 1039 00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:03,959 Speaker 1: his virginity. We do have one spectacular example of Hitler 1040 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:07,239 Speaker 1: striking out with a lady. It happened in right before 1041 00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:10,759 Speaker 1: Hitler's famous beer hall push, when they were at Birkdas Garden. 1042 00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:13,799 Speaker 1: Now the story is related by Hanstengel, who had come 1043 00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:16,640 Speaker 1: to visit Hitler and Birkenis Garden on invitation, but like Hitler, 1044 00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:19,000 Speaker 1: didn't like own a house there or anything. At that 1045 00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 1: point that we're all staying in a hotel. The manager 1046 00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:24,080 Speaker 1: of the hotel was a guy named Herr Buckner, who 1047 00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:26,600 Speaker 1: was a German flying ace in World War One and 1048 00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 1: who had, according to han Stengel, a quote striking Lee 1049 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,439 Speaker 1: Bucksom six foot tall blonde wife, which made her taller 1050 00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:35,880 Speaker 1: than Hitler. This rather vulgar, sinsuwish, blue eyed woman had 1051 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,040 Speaker 1: manifestly succeeded in completely inflaming Hitler to a degree that 1052 00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:42,319 Speaker 1: made him seem entirely beyond himself. His breath was short, 1053 00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:45,600 Speaker 1: his cheeks feverish, his eyes filled with exaltation. In a 1054 00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:48,600 Speaker 1: swashbuckling manner, Hitler was strutting up and down the large 1055 00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:51,600 Speaker 1: veranda and garden, swinging his whip. He would stop now 1056 00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:53,839 Speaker 1: and again to talk to fraud Buckner, whip in hand, 1057 00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:57,120 Speaker 1: punctuating his sentences with the whip in a schoolboy fashion. 1058 00:53:57,480 --> 00:54:00,120 Speaker 1: He was obviously showing off talking at Frau Buckner. Here 1059 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:03,680 Speaker 1: in the numerous gallery of admiring females, all party adherents. 1060 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,800 Speaker 1: He made, however, no impression on freud Buckner. On and 1061 00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:09,279 Speaker 1: on he went through the whole afternoon, acting the Desperado, 1062 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,680 Speaker 1: the wild man, the man of destiny. The whole performance 1063 00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:18,040 Speaker 1: seemed hopefully pubescent and empty. Oh God, hits just swinging 1064 00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:20,319 Speaker 1: a whip trying to flirt with a girl. Check out 1065 00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:22,920 Speaker 1: my will check this ship out? Good I am with 1066 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:26,680 Speaker 1: his whip. Are you impressed? You think I look good? Oh? 1067 00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:30,640 Speaker 1: That's like the version of just like watching somebody play 1068 00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:33,960 Speaker 1: video games. Check it out? No, check out, good I am. 1069 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:37,759 Speaker 1: Let me get this head shot. So many potions. Think 1070 00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:41,319 Speaker 1: of how many potions I have. It's not real now. 1071 00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:44,279 Speaker 1: Hitler also had a gigantic crush on his friend Puts, 1072 00:54:44,320 --> 00:54:47,640 Speaker 1: his wife, Helena hop Stengele. Uh Ian Kershaw writes quote. 1073 00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:50,200 Speaker 1: On one occasion, he took advantage of Puts hop Stengle's 1074 00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:52,280 Speaker 1: brief absence from the room to fall on his knees 1075 00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:55,080 Speaker 1: in front of Helena hop Stengle, describing himself as her 1076 00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:57,080 Speaker 1: slave and bemoaning the faith that had led him to 1077 00:54:57,160 --> 00:54:59,480 Speaker 1: her too late. When Helena told him of the incident, 1078 00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:01,320 Speaker 1: Puts the it down to Hitler's need to play the 1079 00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:04,080 Speaker 1: role of the languishing troubadour from time to time. This 1080 00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:07,000 Speaker 1: guy just like needed to be like that. He's a cuck, 1081 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:09,200 Speaker 1: is what he actually is. That I think is what 1082 00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:12,160 Speaker 1: he would have preferred. He needed a good sex therapist. 1083 00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:15,200 Speaker 1: You say, no, dude, just do this, Yeah exactly, just 1084 00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:17,960 Speaker 1: like asked, like, watch some of your friend's bone. That's 1085 00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:20,239 Speaker 1: what I think you'd That's why I think you'd be 1086 00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:24,000 Speaker 1: happiest with Hitler. Maybe give up politics and just watch 1087 00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:26,960 Speaker 1: your friend's bone. Yeah, that guy be that guy that 1088 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:30,839 Speaker 1: so compared to Hitler, that's a great guy to be. Yeah. Well, 1089 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:34,000 Speaker 1: and especially like that is the child of a dad uncle. Yeah, 1090 00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:38,960 Speaker 1: I mean, like that's what your kid becomes. Yeah. So 1091 00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:41,760 Speaker 1: when Putsy later expressed the worry that Hitler was essentially 1092 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:45,600 Speaker 1: trying to steal his wife's affections, Helena told Putsy not 1093 00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:49,560 Speaker 1: to worry. Hitler was quote an absolute neuter. So that 1094 00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:53,080 Speaker 1: was Helena's attitude towards him. Now, Hitler would later prove 1095 00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:56,200 Speaker 1: them and the oss wrong. Actually, in the early autumn 1096 00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:59,640 Speaker 1: of nine, when the rising fascist political star met a 1097 00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 1: girl named Mimi writer. We will talk about her. Hitler's 1098 00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:06,200 Speaker 1: courtship process and his preferences and fucking in part two 1099 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:11,360 Speaker 1: of this podcast, but right now it's the end of 1100 00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:14,319 Speaker 1: the episode till Thursday when we talk about the rest 1101 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:17,799 Speaker 1: of this stuff. Yeah, that was just just getting us 1102 00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:19,839 Speaker 1: to this, to Mimi. That's just getting us to Mimi, 1103 00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:23,480 Speaker 1: us to Memi. Maybe the first girl. He it's really well, no, 1104 00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:25,439 Speaker 1: not the first girl he fox, but like the first girl, 1105 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:27,279 Speaker 1: we have a lot of detail on how he courted her. 1106 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:29,200 Speaker 1: I see, so we're gonna be talking a lot about 1107 00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:32,080 Speaker 1: how Hitler flirted with girls. Cool was finally moving on 1108 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:36,280 Speaker 1: from his sucking hand, his fucking hand, his leader. Hosn't 1109 00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:41,879 Speaker 1: exactly He's such a he's such a loser. He's such 1110 00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:45,920 Speaker 1: a loser, benign loser. There needs to be like what 1111 00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:50,320 Speaker 1: is the people need to know? How lame we we 1112 00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:52,560 Speaker 1: we always do like it's either like Hitler at the 1113 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:54,359 Speaker 1: end of the war where he's like a sick old man, 1114 00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:57,560 Speaker 1: or like Hitler is this terrifying warlord and we miss 1115 00:56:57,640 --> 00:57:02,520 Speaker 1: out on in Cell Hitler, you definitely nail the Elliott 1116 00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:06,200 Speaker 1: Roger perspective for sure, Like and he it's so interesting too, 1117 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:08,439 Speaker 1: because it seems like he skipped right to in Cell, 1118 00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:11,560 Speaker 1: like I didn't have this like game phase where he 1119 00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:13,680 Speaker 1: was even trying to make it work. He just immediately 1120 00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 1: knew that he needed power of any kind to get 1121 00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 1: anybody because he was such a zero because he yeah, 1122 00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 1: there was otherwise no chance. Yeah. Um, the entitlement all 1123 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:26,080 Speaker 1: of Yeah, it's hate it. It's gross, you know. I 1124 00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:28,440 Speaker 1: try not to like psychoanalyze how much of this was, 1125 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:29,920 Speaker 1: like did he get into power because he was Like 1126 00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:32,400 Speaker 1: I think it was probably ancillary and everyone does things 1127 00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:34,920 Speaker 1: for a lot of reasons. But like you can't look 1128 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:37,400 Speaker 1: at his back story and not see that like frustrated 1129 00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:41,560 Speaker 1: kid who just like, yeah, doesn't understand why some people 1130 00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:44,160 Speaker 1: are good at that, and he's not like he's pissed 1131 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:46,640 Speaker 1: because of it. Well, and it's just like the entitlement 1132 00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:49,160 Speaker 1: as opposed to like growing yourself and making yourself a 1133 00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:53,400 Speaker 1: more rounded exactly. I mean that that that's exactly. It's 1134 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:55,800 Speaker 1: all these kind of guys. It's just like just get 1135 00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:58,600 Speaker 1: a hobby that isn't just like trying to fund somebody. 1136 00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:01,440 Speaker 1: It's like not just be if be a well rounded 1137 00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,560 Speaker 1: person in your own regard, and then people will be 1138 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:06,120 Speaker 1: interesting for people to be interested in you. Yeah, because 1139 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:08,760 Speaker 1: his whole thing, and like in Kuba's X book, it 1140 00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:11,800 Speaker 1: becomes like the way he portrays Hitler's like he loves 1141 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:15,080 Speaker 1: talking about his opinions on everything, of course, but he's 1142 00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:17,680 Speaker 1: not good at much. He just loves to talk about 1143 00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:20,000 Speaker 1: what he thinks about things. Yeah, of course, and like 1144 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:23,200 Speaker 1: learn to dance, man, that kind of self important with 1145 00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:25,880 Speaker 1: nothing to back it up. It's just we don't care. 1146 00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:29,160 Speaker 1: Learn to dance, yeah, like's not that serious.
