Michael Malice joins us to give a primer on the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. What’s North Korea like? Do the people there really believe the popular legends we’ve heard about the Kim family? Which is Kim Jong-un: a spoiled heir to a political dynasty, a paranoid lunatic with a big gun and 25 million hostages, or a coldly rational devious mastermind? Perhaps some combination of all three? Show Notes and Further Reading For more insight on how North Koreans and the Kim family see the world, we highly recommend Malice’s book, Dear Reader: The Unauthorized Autobiography of Kim Jong Il (2014). https://www.amazon.com/Dear-Reader-Unauthorized-Autobiography-Jong/dp/1495283259 Download the .mp3 of this episode: http://bit.ly/2xFSlNN Subscribe through iTunes: https://bitly.com/18wswtX Subscribe through Google Play Music: http://bit.ly/1VLM4sh Free Thoughts RSS feed: http://bit.ly/1q2vZQP
