The Story Of Nicholas Winston & How He Saved Over 600 Kids During The Holocaust

from Make It To Midnight · host J.P. Hovey

In this episode of Make It To Midnight we dive into the story of WWII hero Nicholas Winston. I was on the plane to Oregon a few weeks ago and scrolled through the movie list until I found one that caught my eye. Sir Anthony Hopkins was staring into the distance with a look of wonder in his eyes. I wasn't prepared for the 120 minute emotional rollercoaster I was about to get on but it was worth every second. Nicolas Winston was a banker in Great Britain about to go on vacation but then received a phone call from a friend in Prague that would change his life and 660 little boys and girls lives. Winston's team of 4 saved entire bloodlines from Hitler. This is a story of bravery, courage, compassion, and grit. The 1930s and 40s were dark times but so many people rose to the occasion and did things that changed the world forever. Thanks for listening and let me know if there are other stories I should dive into. And remember, Make it to midnight!
