Thanks for all the great pods guys! I’m still catching up. The multi part pods on Cambrai and the 1918 spring offenses were great. The cross over pods with your WWII podcast were very insightful. I was not as convinced by the guest speaker on the BEF’s readiness in 1940 pod. Thanks again for all your great work!
Great podcast, for someone who really enjoys learning about WW1 this has taken my interest to another level. Would love if they could cover some of the prototype weapons/tech in the war. Thank you for making a great podcast
Just discovered this pod. Awesome pod with Matthias Strohn on German strategy. Thanks guys!
Absolutely fascinating podcast. As usual
I’m a Johnny-come-lately to the pod but it has been fascinating listening and above all such good listening. Every episode is listened to from start to finish and the out-takes are a great way to finish off each episode, lightening the mood after what is sometimes difficult, when your own relatives were involved in the actions. Keep up the great work!
Excellent podcast; presenters are very knowledgeable and engaging, content is really interesting and often challenges what I thought I knew about the First World War.
