Japanese Atrocities in Manila with James Scott-Episode 405

This week Seth and Bill welcome author and historian James Scott to the show to discuss Japanese atrocities in Manila during the battle. The guys discuss some of the more heinous Japanese atrocities committed against the population of Manila at places like Dy Pac Lumberyard, St Paul's, and Fort Santiago. Following that somber discussion, the guys get into an interesting back-and-forth about Japanese General Yamashita his knowledge of the crimes, and his acceptance of his role in the catastrophe. This is a somber and necessary episode.
