Before World War II became a global catastrophe, it began with fear, humiliation, economic collapse, and leaders promising simple answers to broken societies.
This episode explores the dangerous years before the war officially started — the anger left behind after World War I, the rise of Adolf Hitler and fascism, the Great Depression, propaganda, nationalism, and the political decisions that allowed the world to slowly move toward disaster.
How did Europe go from exhausted peace… to the edge of another world war?
Why did so many people support authoritarian leaders?
And could the conflict have been stopped before it exploded across the world?
From the Treaty of Versailles to appeasement, rising dictatorships, and the growing tension across Europe and Asia, this episode uncovers how World War II truly began long before the first invasion.
Listen to the full episode all the way to the end.
