    Hitler's Jewish Soldiers

    On today’s episode, we unpack the wild true story of Erhard Milch — the Luftwaffe mastermind with Jewish blood — and the messy reality behind Nazi racial laws. From forged paternity claims to exemptions signed by Hitler himself, we explore how ideology bent under the weight of war, power, and personal connections. Featuring field marshals, Mischlinge soldiers, and a Nazi first lady raised by a Jew, this is history at its most ironic — and unsettling.
