I havent watched it in a long time but I was really enjoying the WW2 week by week series that Indy Neidell was doing in the same flavor as his WW1 series that I absolutely loved (and would highly recommend) so you might want to check that out. He does pretty consistently tell you where his sources are from and taking the war week by week is a pretty good format for digesting 10-20 minute chunks of content and is doesnt leave a whole lot out of the narrative.

Oh well. Is there any other reason why you say you dont trust him to talk about nazism.
