We’re going to leap into some of the fun, crazy and sometimes completely mad of the Weimar days, i.e. the wild sexual revolution that appeared in in Berlin and to a lesser degree across Germany. My big idea for this episode is that in Post-WW1 Germany, people had seen so much death, they searched for life through sex and rejoicing in their bodies. The war had proved a beautiful body could be easily broken or snuffed out and so pleasure was not to be delayed. But sexuality became a brutal battleground in the fight for which ideas and morality would govern a new Germany.
