You Can't Do Business With Hitler is a radio show series created by the Office of War Information (OWI), based on the experiences of Douglas Miller, a former commercial attaché to the American Embassy in Berlin. The show exposes the Nazi technique of plundering and looting conquered lands through a series of government propaganda plays, providing an insight into Miller's time working in Germany during the 1930s. With scripts written by Elwood Hoffman and direction by Frank Telford, the show unveils narratives of dishonest trade deals and other serious offenses committed by the Nazis, such as mass murder, religious oppression, and educational suppression.

The show was broadcast four times a month and was adapted from the 1941 book of the same title by Douglas Miller. Miller feared that the Nazi economic and social system would infiltrate America, resulting in repression and violence. The radio series illustrated how Nazi Germany created a difficult market for American exports, particularly in Latin America. Some examples included unpaid goods from various countries that were then resold and trade restrictions imposed as early as 1934.
