- Slow Burn
I’ve gotten 30 episodes in and this has grown on me a lot. I like the timeline format, the references to what else is happening in the war war at a point in time. I always look at the quality of the guests and if he can get David Stahel to appear he is doing something right.

10/10 - what the host doesn’t know about this subject probably isn’t worth knowing. I have always had an interest in WW2 but didn’t really know what happened east of Poland. This has filled this void.

I like this podcast, I’m about 15 episodes in. Interesting range of topics and covers a ( to me) lesser known theatre in WW2

New Zealand9 months ago - Politically Biased with numerous poor conclusions.
I’ve attempted a few episodes and the host continuously inserts his modern liberal opinions, which are completely unwelcome. His biases against the Germans then & the Russians now are childish.
As to the content, the episode of The Battle of Prokohrovka (August 5, 2024) is quite poor. His information is laughably incorrect and relies heavily on Soviet quotes - which were deliberate lies.
The Germans didn’t have any Panthers or Ferdinands at this engagement and only a handful of Tiger I tanks. more

Each episode opens with acknowledgement that the show is recorded in Ottawa, on land stolen from the Algonquin people. It goes downhill from there. If you seek a woke-cast comparing Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler, here it is. As an added bonus, you’ll be serenaded with little ditties on the xylophone. Enjoy.
