There’s a reason the History Channel has produced hundreds of documentaries about Hitler but only a few about Dwight D. Eisenhower. Bad guys (and gals) are eternally fascinating. Behind the Bastards dives in past the Cliffs Notes of the worst humans in history and exposes the bizarre realities of their lives. Listeners will learn about the young adult novels that helped Hitler form his monstrous ideology, the founder of Blackwater’s insane quest to build his own Air Force, the bizarre lives of the sons and daughters of dictators and Saddam Hussein’s side career as a trashy romance novelist.
New episodes twice a week on iHeartRadio.

It's crazy that she could kidnap peoples kids blatantly with the power of pure classism. Modern adoption still has big issues
This has to be the most horrifying episode I have ever heard and that's because I am vaguely connected to this story. I am adopted in the 70s and my parents always told me growing up that the agency that they got me from "the same agency Joan Crawford came from." I had no idea I come from the legacy of such a monster. I have always joked that my parents paid for shipping and handling...and..I'm horrified how close to the truth that I was.
Hopefully, it will be of some comfort to know that Tann's agency was closed in 1951, and that Joan Crawford adopted three children from agencies (or an agency, potentially) other than Tann's.
ok- i had typed out a whole ranty thing but i will just settle on: you can still 'buy' babies for the cost of legal papers depending on how coerced the mother is... and people still view their children as property not human beings 🤷🏼 soooo there's a crapload to be fixed around children's rights
my adoption (1981- 6 months old) was one of those 'for the cost of legal papers' with no oversight - it didn't go well - it rarely does 0_o
I know this was years ago, but there *was* a movie about this called Stolen Babies. Made for tv, starred Mary Tyler Moore. It went about as deep into as you would expect a made for tv movie starring Mary Tyler Moore to be.
I'll bet you didn't know that Bob Weir, rhythm guitarist/singer/songwriter of The Grateful Dead, was adopted. He tells the story, and his eventual reunion with his birth father, in the documentary "The Other One," on whatever streaming service you subscribe to.
Not only was my grandfather on my mom's side adopted and never found out about his birth parents, my parents adopted my oldest brother from a sketchy adoption service that was busted for human trafficking afterwards. Definitely a heavy episode for me.
They say art imitates life, and holy shit, this is Miss Trunchbull straight out of Matilda. Except its real life, so she’s actually 100 times more evil. God damn.
It always comes back to Roald Dahl
As someone who grew up near Memphis it's funny to hear the jokes about boss crump, also terrifying to know if I'd been born a couple decades earlier I could have been kidnapped and sold off like that
These episodes were the ones that finally made my mother who's been overhearing me listen to this podcast recently say, "I don't know how you listen to some of this stuff. It's just so awful."
Hey, wow! A bastard I am directly impacted by!
The sheer evil of this woman brought me to literal tears, and that is extremely rare.
60s scoop and multi generational trauma
I had no idea Ms Trunchbull was based on a real... let's say person
Jesus F CHRIST.
