The last episode we talked about the Chinese invasion of Tibet, and today we’re concluding it with the Dalai Lama escaping to India. In an already contentious world, the actions of this one man from an inconsequential part of the world put 1/3 of the world’s population at each other’s throats. In this episode we talk about how the Chinese occupatio…

Today we’re talking about a real Cold War gem - Carol Reed’s 1953 film noir thriller “The Man Between”. It’s a great showcase of one of the most tense times and places in the Cold War, Berlin in the early 50’s. It kept me on the edge of my seat and was also loaded with Cold War themes and imagery. The big question- was Ivo Kern, the antihero, a met…

In this episode, I look at a recent book by Annie Jacobsen that gives a realistic account of what would go down if we detected nuclear missiles incoming. Although it takes place in the present, there’s a strong Cold War essence to the book, when all the protocols were developed. A must for those of us who are fans (?!?!?) of nuclear stuff!…

On September 2, 1945 Ho Chi Minh delivered a speech in Hanoi announcing Vietnam’s independence from Japan and France. Tonight we’re going to read the speech and add a little context in order to hear it from the “other side”. Ho Chi Minh was one of America’s communist boogeymen, after all. I believe hearing all sides, even ones you don’t like, are i…
