Next on the list of lyrics for ‘We didn’t start the fire’ is one of the key leaders of the 20th century a man who greatly impacted the world we live in today. Josef Stalin. There have been numerous documentaries and podcasts done on this important figure so to grapple with this expansive subject,  we have chosen to focus on Stalin’s early life and try to find and understand what made this man into the ruthless dictator he was.

 We are joined by guest Ronald Suny - who has just recently released a book Stalin: Passage to Revolution - which highlights his early life.
