Up from the Rubble charts the amazing story of Manfred Reich’s survival in Nazi Germany. Throughout the podcast, Manfred illustrates his connection with pivotal points in recent German history and tells the story of Manfred’s immigration to Australia and his short return to Germany during the Berlin Wall Crisis of 1961. His many anecdotes show the tenacity of the human spirit, the horrors of war, and yet through it all, Manfred remains an entertaining and at times, funny storyteller.
