  • Slaughter On The Ice

    Slaughter On The Ice
    Dec 24 2024
    Karelian Isthmus, Finland, Christmas 1939. The first Christmas of WW2 sees brutal fighting between the Soviet Red Army and the Finnish defence forces. Stalin's invasion has stalled in the snow, with underprepared and ill-equipped Russian troops dying in droves to outnumbered yet experienced Finnish veterans. But under clear winter skies, a bigger threat is that 'sweating means death...' Join Al Murray as he tells James Holland and John McManus all about the first Christmas of the war, and learn why you shouldn't sleep with your gun under the covers.

    The End Of The Home Guard
    Dec 17 2024
    Far from being a quiet end to the war, December 1944 was incredibly busy. As the Home Guard was getting demobilised, women in Nazi Germany were being forcibly volunteered...

Great podcast

informative, fun, hard hitting and just downright enjoyable, telling untold/unheard stories of not just the main war but all the little side lines of action

An eye opener

Hadn't really thought about '43 as being a pivotal part of Ww2. Great listen.

Powerful, funny, and moving.

The podcast as a whole is fascinating, but this episode could have been hours longer and still amazing.

So interesting

What's not to like. Brilliant revaluation of the second world war. Presented by two people who plainly love this period of history, who have a deep understanding of the subject and dare I say love each other in a stiff upper lip sort of way.
