Brad is joined by Dr. Richard Steigmann-Gall, a historian and expert in Nazi Germany. They compare Hitler's failed coup of 1923 and the Jan. 6 Insurrection at the US Capitol. The discussion focuses on several themes present in 1923 Germany and 2021 USA:

  • Cultural resentment
  • Right-wing authoritarianism
  • Extra-military militias
  • The danger of unity with fascists
  • Christianity as a marker of cultural identity
