Real Dictators: Why did they turn into paranoid mass murderers?

What were the reasons that ordinary people often from humble backgrounds turned into mass murderers and paranoid misanthropic monsters once they got into power? These questions the podcast series Real Dictators try to answer when Mao, Stalin, Hitler, Franco, Gadaffi etc. are scrutinized and each of them is put into a historical, social, economic, and political context.

I find the series extremely interesting to listen to and I bet you will also if you are the least historically interested. Every podcast episode contains interviews with scholars and experts in the particular period of time who have studied the individual dictator. Host is Paul McGann.

Real Dictators are really well produced and even though some of the experts have a heavy accent they are still understandable. You just have to turn the volume up. Real Dictators are a series which you can only get wiser from listening to. History tends to repeat itself as we might well know.

Alas, the series are continuing as there are plenty of people to focus on.

You can find Real Dictators on Spotify or on www.noiser.com or where else you find your podcasts. Happy listening.
