Hi Folks - my guest today was Victor Sebestyen, seasoned journalist, editor, and historian who has spent a career working for major news publications on both sides of the Atlantic, including the London Evening Standard, The Times, The Daily Mail, and Newsweek.
He joined me today to talk about his brand-new book Weimar Germany: The Death of a Democracy. In this episode, Victor walks us through the economic, cultural, and political tectonic plates that were shifting in Germany in the post-World War I Weimar Republic that ultimately descended into authoritarianism.
