- Excellent series hosted by an expert and told by passionate historians
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.

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.
