16: "Hunting Hitler" is Irresponsible BS (Part 4)

Put on your tin foil hats, kids! It’s time for “Hunting Hitler.”

In previous episodes of this series, Norm covered Hitler’s final days, his suicide, and the subsequent investigations into his death. But the fine folks from the History Channel’s “Hunting Hitler” program want you to believe that Adolf Hitler truly might have escaped the bunker, unscathed. In this episode, we don our finest tin foil hats while debunking that BS.

If you feel inspired, share a photo wearing your classiest tin foil hat on Instagram, using the hashtag #OldTimeyConspiracy. We’ll award the listener with the best tin foil a special prize!

Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Norm pulled from:
