Learn from history or you are doomed to repeat it. But some events may be impossible to avoid as momentous forces converge upon a single point in time with leaders wholly unequipped to handle them. For this episode the bois take a trek through history and visit the Weimar Republic, a bureaucratic state whose inadequacies would reverberate for decades to come. They educate themselves on the culture, economy, and people of 1920’s Germany so that they can glean insight into how modern-day events may unfold. So, are we on the precipice of going down the same road or can we swerve onto the historical off ramp and avoid ruin. Only time will tell.
