    Completely addicted to this podcast! As a lover of naval history, I am fascinated by the insider takes and all the detail. Sometimes a bit lost in the technical asides but the analysis of River Plate battle, assessment of combatants, firepower, commanders, tactical doctrines was fascinating! Can you do Jutland or Dogger Bank?
