Enemy: The Germans' War, pt. 2 - The Work of the Men
Over the span of a handful of months, the most ancient ruling houses of Europe collapsed under the weight of deprivation and suffering brought about by the Great War. As communist revolutionaries burn Russia to the ground, their comrades preach blood and fire on the streets of Berlin, and while the Allied countries celebrate their noble victory, the starving, exhausted people of the German Reich face a new enemy more terrible than any they faced in the trenches.

Enemy: The Germans' War, pt. 1 - We Are the War
The First World War shattered a generation of Europeans. Killing took place on a monumental scale, as whole societies gave their all for their countries. German men who spent their young adulthood in the murderous trenches of the Great War, only to be crushed under the weight of a hostile world, would be senior officers in Hitler’s Wehrmacht, while their sons prepared for a rematch as young soldiers, sailors, and airmen. The harrowing experience of the First World War forged the men who fought the Second World War, so our story starts with that experience. This is a public episode.

Epstein Deep Lore & More w/Ryan Dawson
Sorry for my poor audio. I got a fancy new mic and pre-amp, and apparently I don’t know how to set it up properly. I will get it fixed before the next time you’re forced to hear my voice through it. There is video, but I’m still working on it.This interview was meant as a follow-up to people who have already listened to my Epstein series, or have seen the interview I did on Tucker Carlson’s show. We start with the assumption that listeners already know the outline of the Epstein story and related cases, and we jump right into the deep end.For those who don’t know, Ryan Dawson is the OG Epstein researcher. He was making content on the topic back in the days when nobody had heard of Jeffrey Epstein - including me, and I’ve been on this story way longer than most. Ryan was banned from every platform imaginable - Facebook, Twitter, PayPal, crypto exchanges, even MySpace - for talking about this when there wasn’t even any public attention on the issue. When it comes to this topic, he’s the guy.Fair warning. Some of you might have a personal problem with Ryan because of how strident he can be when talking about Israel, whether with regard to the Gaza conflict, the State of Israel’s influence in the US, and the connections of people like Jeffrey Epstein to Israeli intelligence. He goes hard, harder than me, and maybe too hard for some of you to bear. But, though he may be an anti-Zionist, he is not an antisemite. I’ve seen and heard him argue with real deal, rootin’ tootin’ antisemites who were upset at his insistence that this is about a destructive ideology, not any race or ethnic group. Whatever you think of him, there is simply no one better on this issue.You can find him on Twitter at RyLiberty (he’s a libertarian, but I’m willing to let that go for now).He also has a Substack that you should support if you’re interested in the Epstein space because, chances are, much of the information you’ve heard or read was originally uncovered by Ryan. His Substack is: This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit subscribe.martyrmade.com/subscribe

Enemy: The Germans' War *NEW TRAILER*
Hi everyone. Check out the trailer for the new Martyr Made series, Enemy: The Germans’ War.As I embark on this project, I’m more thankful than ever for your support. I’ve taken on controversial topics in the past, but as we saw from the reaction to my appearance on The Tucker Carlson Show last year, World War 2 is the ultimate third rail. The series will not be an apologia for the Third Reich, but an attempt to understand the war through the eyes of the people who lost it. Still, I know I’ll be attacked, not only by individuals, but by the same large, well-funded organizations that came after me last year. Fortunately, I have confidence that Substack means what they say about supporting free speech. They had my back after the Tucker interview, and I know they’ll have it now. But you guys are the reason I don’t have to be afraid. I work for you, and only you, and yours is the only opinion I really care about. Gratitude doesn’t begin to capture what I feel for you guys, but just know how much I appreciate it.To those of you who are not yet paid subscribers, help me weather the storm that’s coming for just $5 p/month or $50 p/year. In addition to supporting the podcast through what promise to be some heavy seas, you get access to tons of exclusive podcasts, essays (with audio versions), and more. People in my position like to say that $5 is just the cost of a cup of coffee at Starbucks, but I know from experience what it’s like for every cent to count. So if the subscription fee is tough to swing, but you’d like to subscribe, shoot me an email (martyrmade @ gmail) and I’ll get you set up. If all you’re able to give is your attention, I’m happy and humbled by it.Next episode should be ready by the end of March.Thanks everybody. This is a public episode.

To the Perplexed (w/audio)
Well, that was interesting. I say “was,” even though it’s still ongoing, because I figure that being officially denounced by the White House must be the peak of an experience like this, but who knows… I’ve been surprised more than once this week. I have been very gratified that all of you have chosen to stick with me through this time, and that many of you have joined us since it happened. Martyr Made has been the #1 ranked podcast in all categories for several days now. We live in a new world. No official White House denunciation, or hit piece in a national newspapers, or rabid Twitter mob, can change the fact that I work for you guys, and only you guys. Today, more than most days, I am very grateful for that. Most of the invective lobbed my way this week has been either uninformed or simply in bad faith, but there are good faith people I respect, including some of you, who have questions, and this message is to you.This will be my final word on the matter until the first episode of my upcoming series, Enemy: The Germans’ War.When I was nearing the end of the Jonestown series, I asked a friend who is a private investigator to help me get my hands on some police reports about a certain kind of incident. I don’t know if he was allowed to do that, but he came through more than I’d hoped, and I was able to read about dozens of incidents involving someone - usually a husband or father - holding his family hostage in a standoff with police. Most of the incidents involved drugs, and the overwhelming majority of those involved methamphetamines (which is what I had asked my friend to help me find). For each incident I read about in the police reports, I found what I could in newspapers and other media reports, and for the federal cases I read whatever I could find on the PACER website. Some of the incidents ended peacefully, others ended with the death of the hostage-taking husband/father at the hands of police. But nearly half ended when the man murdered his family and killed himself. Jim Jones, as those of you who listened to God’s Socialist know, was hopped up on amphetamines pretty much every day for about ten years leading up to the murder-suicide in Guyana. I had read enough about the delusional, and often violent, paranoia caused by long-term amphetamine use, that I expected to learn something about what happened in Jonestown in 1978. And I did. I decided to tell the final episode of the Jonestown story from a different angle, because trying to tell it as an amphetamine-fueled murder-suicide of the kind I spent a month poring over in police reports was just taking too much out of me. Sometimes I still regret not pushing through and doing it that way, because I do believe that’s what happened.Anyway, there was something else that I began to see, both in Jonestown and in the various hostage reports I’d been reading. The behavior of the police during the incidents was not the same in every case. Some clearly understood the explosive and unpredictable nature of the circumstances, and did their job by trying, at every point, to de-escalate. Others were clumsy and out of their depth. But in some cases there was simply no getting around the fact that, in a standoff with a psychotic man threatening to murder his family, the police acted in ways that made the situation worse. They used threats, pressure tactics, and some even insulted or made fun of the man inside the house with a gun - maybe hoping to shake him up and get him to expose himself, or maybe just because cops are human beings, and were tired, frustrated, and angry themselves. Whatever the reason, they clearly acted in ways that made the situation worse, often with catastrophic consequences.As I worked my way toward the end of the Jonestown story, I found myself feeling a lot of bitterness and outrage at the forces aligned against Peoples’ Temple. Here was a paranoid, delusional man with his “family,” out of his mind on amphetamines and sleep deprivation, ranting about “revolutionary suicide,” and political and law enforcement officials, egged on by an often vindictive group of former members with an axe to grind, chose a maximum pressure approach that escalated the cult members’ sense of isolation and persecution, their feeling that there was no way to relieve the pressure, and no way out. In all of the books and documentaries about Jonestown, the former members who escaped before the end are held up as victims and heroes, but I do not view most of them that way. In my opinion, many of them were not victims at all, but in fact were perpetrators. They enabled, encouraged, and egged on Jim Jones, taking the reins of Peoples’ Temple themselves as Jones’ health and capabilities deteriorated. They administered the organization, they led late-night struggle sessions, they ordered the break-ins and harassment campaigns, they recruited and deceived the people who would eventually die with Jones in the jungle, and then they jumped o

My response to the mob
Hey guys, anything interesting happen lately?I would like to say welcome to all the new subscribers, and to express my appreciation for the old ones.

MartyrMade Birthday Fundraiser + Special Offer
If you sign up for an annual subscription between today (July 4) and Sunday (July 7), you get a 20% discount ($40 instead of $50 for the year), and half of that will go to Kristina’s House of Hope, a women’s shelter in upstate New York - the only one in its area.*Note* To take advantage of the special offer, you have to sign up by following this link. It’s how Substack knows to activate the offer.KHOH is not some random charity I drew out of a hat. The house was founded and run by my best friend’s mother after experiencing the tragic loss of her daughter. She’s not rich, she’s not some businesswoman doing this as a side-project, she’s a regular person who’s thrown herself into this project full-time, and helped dozens of women turn away from the edge of the cliff and get their lives together. When people say, “we need more people like that,” this is who they’re talking about - someone who has stepped up and done the thing that we don’t have the time, or energy, or inclination to do, but we all agree has to be done. So let’s help her do it.You guys have really come through the last two years, allowing KHOH to serve more women, improve the house, and expand the services provided. And now, in large part thanks to your help, they’re on the verge of being able to open a second shelter to serve homeless men as well. We don’t always know the outcome when we click to round up to donate to cancer research at the grocery store, but I’m telling you from direct knowledge, your donations to KHOH have saved the lives of dozens of women who were staring over the edge of the abyss.After last year’s fundraiser, the ladies who’ve been helped by KHOH got together and took a group photo with a banner expressing their appreciation. It’s sitting here on my desk, and always will be because it’s probably the single thing for which I’m most grateful to have used this podcast and platform. Let’s come through for them again. Thanks guys, for this and for everything.Here’s a link to the GoFundMe I set up: https://www.gofundme.com/f/martyrmade-birthday-fundraiser-for-kristinas-house-of-hope This is a public episode.
