Today we sit down with Dr Helen Fry, a WW2 historian, whose account of Howard Triest at the trial in Nuremberg is getting a new edition with Yale University Press London.

Let's dive into the story of Howard Triest, a German-Jewish interpreter of the Nazi War Criminals, present at one of the most important trials in human history.

Warning - as this involves WW2, the Holocaust and religion-based crimes, please proceed with caution. Some atrocities mentioned will not be for those of the faint of heart.

Also, we have a new guest host with us today, welcome, Arthur!

and Welcome, Helen!
