  • The Asia-Pacific War of 1937-1945 has deep roots. It also involves a Japanese society that’s been called one of the most distinctive on Earth. If there were a Japanese version of Captain America, this would be his origin story.

    Akira Kurosawa said that when he walked to work a few hours before the emperor had declared the surrender, every person he saw was grim faced and preparing for battle and death. Tradesmen were sharpening their knives; women were constructing spears. When he walked back home after the emperor's announcement, it was like a different world. Grocers and restaurants had their doors open, and were cheerily calling for customers. Everyone had relaxed and gone back to smiling and living their lives. He had grown up in that fanatical pre-war society, but even so he was absolutely astonished at the complete change people had undergone in so brief a time.

      What do you mean by Fascism? The 1930s Italian syndicalist movement, or generic statism? Marxists always appropriate terms with commonly-accepted definitions and relativize them to their historical dialectic. By defining Fascism = murder, you've conflated ideas/speech with actions and thus legitimize violence against whoever you see as committing wrongthink. This is consistent with the ideology of Dialectical Materialism, by far the most murderous ideology ever conceived in human history.

    As a Chinese, I feel extremely empathetic about this episode. The history from 1840s to 1949 is a tragic nightmare for us during which China used to be invaded by almost all the western countries, Russia and Japan. And among all the invasion, China suffered most from that of Japan during WWII. I appreciate that Dan gives very specific detail about the history of this period, a lot of which is written in the Chinese History textbook.

    What didn't you like about this ?
    I find them to be incredibly entertaining and intriguing deep dives into the background and circumstances that spawn these world-changing events.
    You couldn't pay me enough money in High School to care about these subjects.
    Now I pay gladly to hear Dan's take on them.
    An earlier commenter suggested that these be made into BBC documentaries, however I think that this self-produced model is perhaps more efficient, and less likely to be interfered with by people more interested in money and agendas.

    Been reading about early modern Japan recently, specifically their transformation from a feudal society in the late 19th century into a thoroughly modern "Western" country at a time when their contemporaries in Asia were being carved up by Imperial Powers. An amazingly interesting period for anyone interested in Japan or World History.
    Can highly recommend the two books I am working my way through:
    A Diplomat in Japan - Ernest Satow (First hand account of the life of the interpreter for the British Legation)
    Samurai Revolution - Romulus Hillsborough (Very well researched look into the larger political crisis and the life of one of the many interesting figures caught up in the crisis)

      I had a history teacher in high school like that, he opened his discussion about the descent of Weimar Republic's into the Nazis with something to the effect that these were highly intelligent people, one day they were debating homosexuality, then they were committing genocide. Using a micro, to introduce a macro is alway an effective way of bringing someone into the psychology, culture and society of a certain population during the time in history where they made their mark.

    I Just finished this series. All 25 hours of it! This is the most detailed account of Japans involvement in WWII that I've ever come across. Carlin breaks down the series of events leading up to WWII from start to finish in a way that can only be described as the most engaging history lesson that you could ever imagine. It's heroic, humbling, horrific and detailed in an unbiased journalistic style that's unforgettable. Bravo Sir!

    That feeling of joy you get when a new hardcore history is out is directly correlated to the feeling of despair after you've already listened to it several times over three days and realize there's four months until the next one is released.
    Best podcast hands down, the effort he puts into it is worth the interludes between episodes.

    In the 1960s Admiral Yamamoto's Son, his wife and his grandchildren lived in the Oak Cliff section of Dallas Texas. They were members of the Kiestwood Baptist Church. One of my best friends attended that church and took me over to their home. He was friends with one of the boy's. We went fishing in a creek nearby with him. I'll never forget the huge portrait of Admiral Yamamoto they had over their fireplace. Adorned with what looked like a shrine. From what I can remember. It was 1966 and I was 11 years old. Strange times where I lived. Stevie Ray Vaughn, the Yamamoto family and Oswald all living within 5 square miles of my Oak Cliff Dallas Texas neighborhood.

    To form the most accurate understanding of history, you have to examine every perspective and account of events, and cross reference each of them, see what events are agreed upon by all and understand intimately each perspectives goals and aspirations. All the while being unbiased... Takes a certain psychological archetype to be a true historian, and Dan is certainly that

    There was a Gilligan's Island episode that dealt with a Japanese soldier that was still fighting WWII. If memory serves it was the episode when a Mini Sub with a Japanese Soldier shows up on the Island. I was a young kid in the 70's & I do recall hearing of at least one Japanese soldier. I think, it's more that I recall my grandfather's reaction to it.

The Celtic Holocaust 3 times, & Countdown To Armageddon Once all the way through. I have to admit, I haven't yet been able to shop online for your episodes on The Romans but thats my first buy coming soon. I can't wait to get lost in this episode. If you end up seeing this somehow, you should know, you sparked an entirely new perspective & interest for me personally.
