2024-09-21 18:13:03 +0000 UTCGreat episode. An idea for a new series in the future given the recent news: the Lebanese Civil War. It’s a super murky period with everybody being an asshole from the local communities up to the international powers

2024-09-20 19:00:05 +0000 UTCI'm reminded of the Operation Pastorius episode where the u-boat that dropped the spies off got stuck in shallow water and was audibly revving its engines

2024-09-19 18:55:08 +0000 UTCAll of you are on top form here. I love an underwater death tube episode. I recently read a horror novel about a sunken uboat in the Caribbean that came back up, but was full of nazi zombies because of course it was.

2024-09-19 04:48:28 +0000 UTCI listened to this in a 2000 model year Camry with front and rear number dents and an inline four-banger. Can confirm, great car. I’m gonna drive it until the seats fall through the floor pan

2024-09-19 03:36:57 +0000 UTCOff topic but any chance you guys will cover the Cristero war? it is an odd and undercovered period of Mexican history. Like the crusades it will bring out a certain kind of Catholics… but most don’t know that Mexico for a time endorsed State-Atheism stronger than the Soviets. https://youtu.be/LNzX5UbbO7I?si=COiTGXaDyZBpI4KG

2024-09-19 03:08:19 +0000 UTCJust watched a documentary about the mongol invasion of Poland. Duke Henry’s army got absolutely bodied and the Mongols cut off his head and paraded around the city. The Duke’s wife only recognized his mangled corpse because he had eleven toes.

2024-09-19 02:05:42 +0000 UTCI have a framed picture of "the ghost fleet of the outer banks". U-352 is conspicuous in the bottm left corner.

2024-09-18 11:20:52 +0000 UTCHey Joe, since you live in the Netherlands now (and in The Hague) when are we getting a series about the Indonesian war for independence. It’s somehow the most forgotten war of them all and it started literally while WW2 was still going on and lasted till 1949. It has anything a series like LLBD needs, war crimes, large scale city battles, interesting characters, the Dutch being assholes.

2024-09-18 09:57:51 +0000 UTC„a boat usually floats“ Meanwhile the pride of the Swedish navy in 1628: „oh no, we’re sinking and not even made it outside the bay!“ The 30 years war could be a good series btw;)
