  • I've only listened to the Ukraine episodes, but don't feel I've gained much insight from them. Being pro-Ukraine is admirable, but the hosts are totally uncritical of info from Ukraine, provide simplistic opinions on Russia/Putin and give the general impression that they don't have much expert knowledge about modern Russia or Ukraine beyond military history. They also speculate inappropriately about the personal circumstances of listeners who write in. Maybe the history ones are better.

  • Best first episode ever

    Just finished the first episode with the intro. to the Falklands War and discussion with Lord Luce. Absolutely brilliant, spell-binding stuff. Perhaps, having someone who was at the coalface (Luce) made the difference - whatever, if this podcast continues in the same vein, it’ll be worth 6/5 stars!!

  • Saul’s Bais

    I had to unfollow this show due to Saul’s anti-Israel bais, and the anti-Israel bais of their female reporter on the ground in Israel. Saul accepts what Hamas’ so called civilian casualty reports at face value without question. He thus gives aid and comfort to mass murderers and antisemitic bigots! I’v had my fill of him and can stand it no more!
