Description

For some people, racism isn’t enough. They aren’t satisfied with just hating someone because of their appearance. They need a scientific justification for their bigotry. In episode 36, Robert is joined by podcast pioneer Josh Clark (Stuff You Should Know, The End of the World) to discuss the long, long chain of scientific racism.

There’s a reason the History Channel has produced hundreds of documentaries about Hitler but only a few about Dwight D. Eisenhower. Bad guys (and gals) are eternally fascinating. Behind the Bastards dives in past the Cliffs Notes of the worst humans in history and exposes the bizarre realities of their lives. Listeners will learn about the young adult novels that helped Hitler form his monstrous ideology, the founder of Blackwater’s insane quest to build his own Air Force, the bizarre lives of the sons and daughters of dictators and Saddam Hussein’s side career as a trashy romance novelist.
