92: White Lies

Madison Grant's Influence on Nazi Germany

The hosts revisit Madison Grant's influence on the Third Reich, noting that Hitler's physician, Karl Brandt, cited Grant's work during the Nuremberg trials. They argue that American eugenics was the foundation for Nazi policy. The conversation shifts to modern genetic technologies like CRISPR and the Human Genome Project, which they view as the 21st-century continuation of Grant's "wildlife management" approach to humanity.
