The Brian D. O'Leary Show - November 15, 2022 - Myths of the Spanish Civil War

The Brian D. O’Leary Show November 15, 2022 This is the second show of the second week in our new daily podcast. We’ve shelved the idea of livestreaming these shows…for the time being. Brian will talk about that on a future episode…logistically it works better for everyone at this point to do a podcast without a live element. That may change in the future. We welcome feedback from our listeners on this as well. One of the beautiful things about podcasting is that it is NOT live… It’s not radio, it’s podcasting. Continuing the discussion from yesterday’s show, we tackle an article in this month’s Chronicles: A Magazine of American Culture. The major myth surrounding the Spanish Civil War…that it was a struggle against “fascism.” Hint: that’s not at all what the war was about. The rest of this week’s shows will be devoted to analysis of this article and will get into some parallels we see between the lead-up to the Spanish War and our culture today. It is analogous, but certainly not one-for-one. Go to https://chroniclesmagazine.org/ for the articles. Great magazine and the only print magazine to which I currently subscribe.
