Episode 140 - Bonfire of Weimar

Hitler coming to power in Germany was bad enough, but a marked turn in the nation's trajectory came after the Reichstag fire. That incident, so random but also so impactful that it would spawn theories that it was a false flag by the Nazis, was the moment where the seizure of power went into overdrive. Nothing would ever be the same after it.    Evans, Richard The Coming of the Third Reich Penguin Books, 2003 Kershaw, Ian Hitler, 1889-1936: Hubris W.W.
