I was asked by a teacher of mine to review a history podcast about WW1. The Bolsheviks are mentioned in conjunction with Hitler, with the narrator referring to the "Bolshevik coup" as being "swapping a demon for the devil himself". I don't know exactly when the parts about the Bolsheviks come in in terms of time frame but it's only 10 minutes long so you should be able to find them with some ease.

It's the first one there with just a play symbol and no price.

I need to review this by tomorrow (not in any formal sense) and I would like it if some people here with a greater knowledge of histography that I could point me to some sources that say otherwise.

NOTE: It does mention "Lenin's sucesssor, Stalin", so I don't want any "help" from Stalinists in this area. I would like to merely combat the claims against the Bolsheviks and Lenin, especially the "millions killed by secret police" claim of Lenin.
