This episode follows Adolf Hitler’s final push to seize the chancellorship of Germany. We trace the political chaos of 1932, the breakdown of successive governments, and the backroom intrigues that brought Hitler and conservative elites into a fateful alliance. From electoral setbacks to the secret deals of January 1933, we see how miscalculation and ambition opened the door for Hitler’s appointment — and how his first days in office set the stage for the dismantling of the Weimar Republic.
