Notas del episodio
It’s happening again on social media — tourists arriving expecting hostility and finding warmth, friendliness, pride. The gap between the narrative and the reality is striking.It was also striking in 1941, when Germany’s finest military minds looked at America and saw a soft, undisciplined nation of factory workers and baseball fans.They were wrong in ways that changed the world.Episode 1 of The Roger Retrospective explores what Europeans keep missing — and what it tells us about America’s values, its industrial genius, and why it rebuilt its enemies instead of crushing them.
