Die Grenzwacht hielt im Osten (Scott, Sean, & Nim)

In this episode Scott and Sean are joined by esteemed podcast guest and published author Nim, in third chair. Spirited discussions ensue addressing Karl Freiherr von Manteuffel-Katzdangen's moving poem Die Grenzwacht hielt im Osten (AKA Die Baltenfahne) which was later set to music. Nim enlightens us on the Interwar period of Germany, Baltic Germans, and the Freikorps. Baltic Germans-where are they now? What's a Freikorps? Where is Courland? Why is there such a dirth of German Interwar folk songs in my Spotify playlist? Why am I crying in the club rn? Listen and find out.
