About the show

Adolf Hitler's Third Reich promised a thousand-year empire but collapsed in a mere twelve, leaving Europe in ruins. This show traces Nazi Germany from the ashes of the Weimar Republic to the bunker in Berlin, covering the Reichstag Fire, the Enabling Act, the Night of the Long Knives, Kristallnacht, the Blitzkrieg campaigns, the Holocaust, and the final Battle of Berlin. Hosts Lucas and Luna dissect key figures like Hitler, Himmler, Goebbels, Speer, and the resistance circles around Stauffenberg. They examine the Nazi economy, propaganda machinery, racial laws, and the complicity of ordinary Germans. The series also explores the war's Eastern Front, the turning point at Stalingrad, the opening of the second front on D-Day, and the post-war Nuremberg Trials. Why does the Third Reich still haunt our political imagination? Because its fusion of technology, terror, and charismatic leadership remains a stark warning about the fragility of democracy. #ThirdReich #NaziGermany #AdolfHitler #Holocaust #WorldWarII #Blitzkrieg #Stalingrad #NurembergTrials #WeimarRepublic #Kristallnacht #MeinKampf #Gestapo #SS #ReichstagFire #JulyPlot #EuropeanHistory #FexingoHistory #History Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
