This week we decide to explore some of the events of the early 60s and Turkey's brand new very stable political situation. Including two failed coups orchestrated by the same person with some help (and hindrance) from some characters we're already extremely tired of. We also go into the attempted assassination on Ismet Inonu and why it may have happened and what Cyprus has to do with it all?

Episode 21 - Nightmare Coalition Rotation
Wednesday Jan 25, 2023
Wednesday Jan 25, 2023
Well, that coup happened and it surgically removed the rot in Turkish politics so everything is okay now. Right? Then why are we still doing episodes? It turns out that military Juntas who pass on power to closely monitored civilian administrations struggle to actually achieve their goals and some might say the rot wasn't removed so much as dispersed and we go into that and Turkey's first coalition governments.

Wednesday Jan 11, 2023
Wednesday Jan 11, 2023
Happy new year! We're back and a coup has happened. We take a look at what exactly Turkey's brand new, totally legitimate government was doing after they took control, including a series of trials that included the deposed President and Prime Minister being accused of many crimes. Mostly treason. Also we tell you who we would have play Mussolini in a film.
