Conversations: The Nazi and the Psychiatrist - the Book Behind the film 'Nuremberg' w. Jack El-Hai

In this episode of History Shorts, I sit down with acclaimed author Jack El-Hai to explore the extraordinary true story behind his book The Nazi and the Psychiatrist, now adapted into the 2025 film Nuremberg. We discuss the tense, unsettling relationship between U.S. Army psychiatrist Douglas Kelley and captured Nazi leaders like Hermann Göring, and how Kelley's groundbreaking evaluations shaped our understanding of evil, responsibility, and the psychology behind mass violence.  CHECK OUT JACK'S BOOK: https://www.amazon.com/Nazi-Psychiatrist-Hermann-Douglas-Meeting/dp/1610394631  SUPPORT THE SHOW: https://www.patreon.com/c/HistoryShortsPodcast ADVERTISE: https://www.historyshortspodcast.com/advertise  LEARN MORE: https://www.historyshortspodcast.com/   EPISODE SPONSORED BY THE COLLECTOR: www.thecollector.com
