Matt Whitaker: A Man on a Mission to Tell 1 Teenage Boy's Story

Helmuth Hubener's story is a true tale that reads like a Hollywood movie and that is what Matt Whitaker has been trying to make for over 20 years—a movie about Helmuth's life. Helmuth was a 16-year-old boy who, after gaining access to British radio channels, became convinced that he had to do something—anything—to stop Adolf Hitler. As the secretary for his local Latter-day Saint congregation he began typing flyers on a church typewriter in hopes of helping others see what he saw in the Nazi regime. On this week's episode, we talk with Matt Whitaker about what Helmuth's story can teach us more than 80 years later and why he is so determined to share it.
