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.

New episodes twice a week on iHeartRadio.

  1. Re: the dwarf thing: My ex had a high school classmate who was a hair under 5 feet tall, dude knew the exact medical definition of "little person," which he wasn't, and would throw hands if anybody made fun of his stature. So yeah, I can see how the "homicidal dwarf" in this story earned the nickname.

  2. The reason for using German weapons was twofold – one, Russian small arms tended to hurt your hands after repeated use, and there were a lot of people to murder.

    The other issue was deniability- the whole thing was blamed by the Soviets on the Nazis. The Nazis did discover the massacre and told the world about it, which Stalin obviously denied.
    It was only officially acknowledged by the Soviets in 1990.
    Reminds me of a joke I heard back in the day.
    A Pole is asked, "If Poland was invaded again by both Russia and Germany, whom would the Polish army fight first?"
    "Russia, obviously."
    "Why?"
    "Duty before Pleasure"

  3. I feel like you could delved a little more into the sheer amount of genocide and ethnic cleansing Beria and the NKVD were responsible for. I know this scumbag was responsible for too much evil to recount all of them but still.

  4. The winter war is a trip because you hear about all these badasses kicking the soviets' asses and think "hell yeah" then you remember they were kind of sort of Nazis, and you feel kind of bad.

  5. I got so excited when this appeared in my feed! … and then I realized I listened to it as a podcast last night. Guess I need to get into Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff or It Could Happen Here.

  6. I'm confused why Stalin would let Beria babysit Svetlana, while also warning her to never be alone in a room with him? I don't necessarily doubt that either thing happened, it just seems contradictory.

  7. I love how even the fucking Guinness World Records people (who eagerly award records like 'biggest cake ever baked' or whatever to authoritarian dictators trying to do PR stunts, and who gave noted video game liar Tommy Tellerico a bunch of nothingburger records because he paid for them) looked at records like 'Most Prolific Executioner' and went, "yeah, we better retire this one."
