last episode of the Krupp series! thought I'd drop it early to enjoy before Thanksgiving if anyone's driving anywhere

Alfried and his empire.
the vibes here, lol

Arndt von Bohlen und Halbach

vastly the most sympathetic Krupp in at least 100 years, though again not -that- sympathetic

Berthold Beitz, a top Krupp executive who figures prominently in the final chapter

Beitz and Adenauer sniping at each other

here's McCloy back again to help Krupp self-destruct?

what did Beitz and RFK talk about?

Khrushchev's relationship with Krupp was quite chummy

why did the Eastern bloc (through Krupp) essentially receive a quarter of West German long-term investment credit while only buying 4% of their exports?

if you want to hear Alfried's long list of personal defeats and final fate, listen to the episode lmao

the final fate of Krupp - assimilated by Thyssen

yes, it was a joke, no I'm not sponsored by Otis elevators

to finish, I'd like to introduce my Programmed to Chill Matrix of Business Success

here's how Krupp ranks on the Programmed to Chill Matrix of Business Success - it's not a great score, folks!

thanks for listening! more good stuff to come
