Sasha Maggio (Mother of Tanks in X) hosts this series about D-Day planning and execution from both sides of the battlefield.
Some historians go into great detail and submit ppt presentations to let the listener visualize the different operations as they are explained.
The specialists sometimes take the liberty to ramble outside of the day’s topic, but their level of knowledge of the topic is such that it’s wholly worthwhile listening to them.
Sasha’s passion for history is woven through this amazing podcast, bringing together a diverse coalition of scholars to tell the story of World War II. Every episode is a gem. Take time out and listen to this amazing series.
I just stumbled upon this podcast and have thoroughly enjoyed the first couple of episodes. The conversations are intelligent and well-paced. Highly recommend for all the WWII history fans out there!
I really like the depth of the content in this podcast. Most does a great job of curating experts on somewhat niche topics that really expands the listeners' understanding of WWII. I personally wish the conversation wandered a little less but I love the content.
