Episode 16
Part 2 of the series on the relationship between the Nazis and Berlin. Chris Hick joins me again to talk about what the Nazis did to Berlin once they were in charge.
From employment programmes, creating the "people's community" to planning the architectural makeover of the capital, the Nazis hoped to change Berlin fundamentally and even planned to rename it to World Capital Germania.
