The hosts unravel the lives and legacies of two German dictators; Kaiser Wilhelm II and Adolf Hitler
They discuss Kaiser Wilhelm's traumatic birth and disability, his love-hate relationship with his British relatives, his undiplomatic diplomacy, the assassination of Franz Ferdinand the subsequent 'blank cheque he gave that caused the first world war.
They also discuss Hitler's Austrian upbringing, his failed art career, his failed Beer Hall Putsch, his election and consolidation of power, his role in the second world war and the holocaust.
These two dictators battle it out in the knock-out tournament to determine the single greatest dictator of all time. One of these two dictators will be eliminated from the tournament and the other will remain in contention to be crowned history's biggest dictator.
