The Brian D. O'Leary Show - November 15, 2022 - Myths of the Spanish Civil War

<p>The Brian D. O’Leary Show</p> <p><em>November 15, 2022</em></p> <p>This is the second show of the second week in our new daily podcast. We’ve shelved the idea of livestreaming these shows…for the time being.</p> <p>Brian will talk about that on a future episode…logistically it works better for everyone at this point to do a podcast without a live element. That may change in the future. We welcome feedback from our listeners on this as well.</p> <p>One of the beautiful things about podcasting is that it is NOT live… It’s not radio, it’s podcasting.</p> <p>Continuing the discussion from yesterday’s show, we tackle an article in this month’s <a href="https://chroniclesmagazine.org/">Chronicles: A Magazine of American Culture.</a></p> <ul> <li>The major myth surrounding the Spanish Civil War…that it was a struggle against “fascism.” Hint: that’s not at all what the war was about.</li> </ul> <p>The rest of this week’s shows will be devoted to analysis of this article and will get into some parallels we see between the lead-up to the Spanish War and our culture today. It is analogous, but certainly not one-for-one.</p> <p>Go to <a href="https://chroniclesmagazine.org/">https://chroniclesmagazine.org/</a> for the articles.
