The 1956 Hungarian Revolution wasn’t just 19 days. It was the beginning of 200,000 journeys. This is the series dedicated to those journeys.

I am proud to announce that Episode 21 of the Hungarian History Podcast is out now, launching a special sub-series preserving the personal stories of the 1956 exodus.

In this first episode, I am honored to have Batizy Levente, author of “The Biggest Hole in the Iron Curtain: The Batizy Story”, a remarkable account of his family’s escape.

We discuss his story, the legacy of that journey, and its significance today.
