21 - Krupp Steel pt. 4, Bertha and Gustav Krupp, or, “Politics is Forbidden Here”

October 02, 2021 16:12 - 43 minutes - 29.9 MB

Today Marga Krupp takes the helm of the Krupp firm, at least for a while, and the German state finds Bertha Krupp a reliable husband. The reliable man is Gustav Krupp, an interesting little homunculus. Then we discuss the extent of the Krupp empire at this point, and talk about their shitty renaissance fair antics, and then the run-up to WWI. Finally, we talk about the Brandt Trial, which ought to be called the Krupp trial, the SPD's role in the affair, and why Krupp was allowed to walk out ...

20 - Krupp Steel pt. 3, Fritz Krupp or, the Jeffrey Epstein of the Second Reich

September 25, 2021 14:29 - 58 minutes - 40.2 MB

Today's all about Fritz Krupp, though we spend some time talking about Alfred, his crumbling marriage, Fritz' insane wedding, Fritz' place in the Krupp concern as chief of intelligence, comparing and contrasting Alfred's and Fritz' different approaches to management, new developments in steel and weapons production, and then a very, very interesting topic: older generations of international arms dealers. Specifically the British and Vickers man, Sir Basil Zaharoff vs. the German and Krupp ma...

Bonus Episode 02 - We Live in the House that Jack Built: Alan Moore and His Works, feat. Dr. Pig Bodine

September 21, 2021 02:31 - 2 hours - 97.8 MB

Today I'm joined by Dr. Pig Bodine (@pussy___teeth) to discuss all things Alan Moore (mostly everything except Watchmen and V for Vendetta), and especially From Hell. We bounce all over the place, as you might imagine, but that's in the spirit of Alan Moore. We ask if Moore is Princess Dianapilled, LaRouchepilled, and zero in on Moore's obsession with intelligence agencies and magick. We talk "op or not" and tried to come to a greater understanding of why we practice art and history. w/ Sau...

19 - Krupp Steel pt. 2, Alfred Krupp, or, the Cannon King

September 18, 2021 16:33 - 46 minutes - 31.6 MB

This week, I start by comparing and contrasting Krupp's labor practices to Amazon's, and then I discuss bronze vs. steel cannons. From there, we get to talk about Alfred's unhappy marriage, truly bad but somehow not the worst marriage in this family. Also, a discussion of Krupp's houses, from the Garden House to Villa Hügel, which is such an insane building. I talk about the arms trade in the 19th century, and the Franco-Prussian war. There's some delightful hypochondria, and Krupp's relatio...

18 - Krupp Steel pt. 1, Friedrich Carl and Alfred Krupp, or, Primitive Accumulation

September 11, 2021 18:22 - 39 minutes - 26.9 MB

We're about to take a long voyage into German steel production through the lens of Krupp Steel, from 1587 into the 1960s. You're going to learn so much about German heavy industry, but I promise it's not boring. It's all about Essen, Germany, and this episode is about the start of the Krupp family, the way they made their early fortune, their actions in the Napoleonic era, and the race to figure out how to make cast steel. We meet Friedrich Carl, who almost ruins the family forge, and his so...

17 - Spyclopedia #2, Louis Mortimer Bloomfield, or, Murder Inc. 2

September 04, 2021 15:52 - 43 minutes - 30 MB

Today we get real weird. We're talking about how British Security Coordination + industrialists and moneyed interests formed World Commerce Corporation, with some very interesting people on its board of directors. Then we discuss WCC's official, stated goals, and the more occulted purpose it played in reindustrializing Germany. And since I can't help myself, we get the first introduction of the Bormann organization. Then, WCC morphed into Permindex, and we introduce Major Bloomfield, William...

Pepper, and we finally discuss H. M...

August 28, 2021 04:03 - 1 hour - 40 MB

Today I speak with two of the Trillbillies, specifically Tom Sexton and Tarence Ray. We discuss many aspects of esoteric Kentucky, like the word itself and the other name settlers picked out for the land, as well as the Indian mounds. Then we discuss the economics of Ashland Kentucky which might explain some of the high strangeness that's occurred there, from massacres to mafia coal companies to Charlie Manson. Then we discuss the history of Kentucky and LSD, like with Captain Hubbard and Au...

Then we talk about the OWI - Office of War Information, the agency in charge of non-black propaganda, the relationship between OSS and SIS, and a frank assessment of Allen Dulles as spy re Fritz Kolbe. I call out...

We talk more about Wild Bill Donovan, British ambassadors, the ONI and G2, and especially the FBI, with its legal restrictions and limitations. We talk about the British Imperial Censorship in Bermuda and its letter-opening program, and how they taught the tricks to the FBI. There's weird foot stuff and sexism involved. Then a series of incidents with Italian and German spies in the Americas, and so...

August 01, 2021 05:17 - 51 minutes - 47.9 MB

Wouldn't it be pretty bad if FDR sold the American public on WWII with falsified evidence? Ahh that would be bad if that had happened huh? It'd be bad if the British made up a fake Zimmerman Telegram 2.0, for sure.  Today we talk about William Stephenson, a British businessman and spymaster who gave pushed the US into WWII. We talk about his early years as a soldier, POW, boxer, businessman, and spy. We also talk about Wild Bill Donovan, FDR, J. Edgar, cash and carry, US destroyer sales to ...

There were trips to the UK by Kurt Lüdecke and Alfred Rosenberg, the latter organized by British air intelligence; we talk about who they met and why; their factions and interests, culminating with 'currency dictator' Montagu Norman and Sir Henri Deterd...

July 17, 2021 16:06 - 55 minutes - 38.2 MB

Today we crunch some numbers on the Versailles Treaty and then get deep into heavy vs light industry - what they are, why they function differently, and then how that's reflected in their lobbying efforts. We talk about lobbying, the secret rearmament program, German heavy industry's secret political slush fund, and the Great Depression. There's some talk of coalitions in the Reichstag, and we go into the story of the Nazis party's accountant, the 1930 elections from a fundraising perspectiv...

July 04, 2021 18:29 - 55 minutes - 37.8 MB

Today we're talking Henry Ford, his hang-ups and humiliations, and of course his deep anti-semitism. He was a pioneer of more than automobiles, helping invent racial anti-semitism, and had a bunch of White Russians working at the Dearborn Independent. The Protocols show up, of course, as well as Ford's the Eternal Jew. Then we get into the methods by which Henry Ford funneled money to the Nazis covertly, including some very shadowy figures. Guaranteed to make you go "ahh, interesting". w/ s...

June 27, 2021 14:52 - 40 minutes - 28.1 MB

You ever ask yourself who funded the Nazi party? It wasn't German industrialists, not at first anyway, or the petty bourgeoisie. It's a lot more complicated. Today we talk about the Thule Society again, Ernst Röhm, White Russians, German naval intelligence, a host of smaller ghouls, Admiral Canaris, the Viking Bund and the Organization Consul terrorist group, General Ludendorff, and how it all looks just a little but like Gladio. Check it out. outro song - Detroit Rock City by Kiss
