Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What if France had Won The Battle of Agincourt? | History Undone with Drachinifel
Q: What constitutes a French victory here?
For the French to win decisively, they need to maintain their chain of command and effectively coordinate their forces without the muddy disadvantage.
What If Malta Had Fallen to the Axis in WW2? Soviets Push into Europe & Nazis Rule North Africa
Q: Do you think the Axis came close to actually capturing Malta?
It came within an ace; Malta could have been forced to surrender without critical supplies.
What If Malta Had Fallen to the Axis in WW2? Soviets Push into Europe & Nazis Rule North Africa
Q: What if the island had fallen into enemy hands?
It could have had a hugely consequential effect on the rest of the Second World War, impacting the North African campaign and Axis advances into Egypt.
What if Britain had LOST The Falklands War? The end of Thatcher & a different Cold War | History Undone
Q: What are the wider ramifications from Thatcher not being there?
You're unraveling a lot of history at that point; the immediate effect would probably have been the Social Democrat government from 1983.
What if Britain had LOST The Falklands War? The end of Thatcher & a different Cold War | History Undone
Q: Could Margaret Thatcher have survived as Prime Minister had she lost the Falklands War?
No, because I think enough of her MPs would have turned on her.
