‘You Must Remember This’: Hollywood’s forgotten and secret stories

You Must Remember This is a well-crafted and deeply researched podcast focusing on neglected or little-known stories from Hollywood's golden age.

Host Karina Longworth is a bit of a movie buff, being a former film critic for LA Weekly. One that particularly caught my attention was how a grief-stricken Clark Gable, following the death of his wife in a plane crash, pulled strings to join the war effort despite being considered too old for combat.

The story goes that Hitler was a huge fan of the actor and was keen on capturing him but probably not too impressed with Gable’s starring role in a US propaganda film about air gunners. Wonderful stuff. http://www.vidiocy.com/podcast/#podcast-1
