Such an interesting array of guests that mixes up personal experiences with scholarly analysis… would recommend to anyone wanting to keep up to date with what’s going on with the war. Presenters talk very well in a good mixture of relaxed and serious style

This podcast is excellent and full of clever boffins - I’m so glad to discover it. Episode 51 on the Georgian Foreign Legion and armoured donation pickup trucks from the UK blew my mind. Love the deep historical context - so much to learn.

Very insightful and relatively optimistic podcast, shame I did not discover earlier. Keep up the great work and many thanks for keeping us all informed.

This is a great show and I have not missed an episode since I discovered it 6 months ago. Well researched, very thoughtful and particularly interesting production. Time well spent listening to this podcast, in my opinion.
Martian James via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/09/23
Absolutely love the podcast, other than the theme music that sounds like all the cliché war sounds from movies past. Keep up the great work fellas. Don’t worry about my criticism. You do you. My opinion is just that. Take care.

One slight correction to the characterization by the two brilliant hosts regarding America’s “best intentions” in foreign wars, but getting it done right in both WWI and WWII. We also won The Cold War. Vietnam and Korea were but two battles within that Cold War. With respect to Iraq, we won that...Read full review »

hi gulvulyoctic via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/09/23
Never a duff episode. These experienced guys know war and history and there isn’t any waffle. Well-chosen high calibre guests. Both hosts have very appealing voices too. Slava Ukraine.
Sktchy via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/08/23
Not a remotely reliable source of accurate information on the Russo-Ukrainian war. The hosts cringe at even the mention of opposing views on the war or realities on the battlefield that might favor Russia. It’s the mainstream news narrative converted into podcast form. It’s unfortunate because...Read full review »

Fantastic podcast, both Patrick and Saul bring a huge amount of knowledge and experience to weigh up the past and even more interestingly the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
jimmyjaycko via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/26/23
This podcast is incredibly well informed and enlightening about all aspects of the war in Ukraine. Always a must-listen when episodes arrive.
BarryPilling via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/18/23
Excellent, informative Podcast giving up to date, behind the scenes info with some great expert knowledge and superb guests
Pugsley70 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/15/23
A very interesting podcast on the Ukraine war. A lot more insight and content than is often the case. Some good discussion and interviews. Not quite sure about the laughing style of one of the hosts given the gravity of the content, but you kinda get used to it.

Great source. Lots of quality
Mribbo675744 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/10/23
Excellent podcasts particularly this first mid week one. Shows how most of us do not understand Russian and it’s people. But I think this lack of understanding goes both ways. By Putin threatening us (the civilised democracies) he is having the opposite effect of what he wants, we will not...Read full review »

Best podcast/ information I have ever heard re Russia/ Ukraine . Want to share with whole world - absolutely fascinating and informative . Never stop doing this podcast on Ukraine - cannot get enough of quality information like this . Many many thanks
Kateoldbean via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/08/23
If you can get past the cattiness and the oddly inappropriate and incessant chortling, not bad. This is a decent supplemental source of chit chat and low-mid level insight. For those that are consuming a lot of information about the Russian invasion of Ukraine, The Telegraph’s ‘Ukraine: The...Read full review »
bcitsme via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/06/23
The host is showing his left leaning politics. He bashes America’s right without understanding US politics at all and goes on to lionize Biden as some political god. Please stick to British politics and don’t delve into political systems you don’t understand and have no education in. In fact we...Read full review »

Unmissable. Essential listening for anyone interested in hearing expert discussion on the war in Ukraine. Really good, every week.
RB4273 via Apple Podcasts · Austria · 02/22/23
Thank you for your podcast. The information, insight, and depth you provide is of great value. Keep the Faith.
CheckpointC via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/20/23
I’m going back and catching up on past episodes. January 12th references Prince Harry’s service in Afghanistan stating that the theater wasn’t that dangerous and helicopter pilots weren’t in much danger. Really? Tell that to the thousands maimed with PTSD. Also wonder if either host read the...Read full review »

My favorite podcast at the moment. Great insight and fascinating guests. I highly recommend.
Darkhorse75 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/07/23
I’ve read a great deal about the history of the British Army and it’s adventures in conflicts around the world, those it instigated and those it was dragged into. I’m from a military family. I have never heard any two historians , at any time, bring up ‘asymmetric warfare’ except when these two...Read full review »

There's a lot of opinion and facts mixed without distinction, as well as the hosts riding moral high horses about what "must be done"Read full review »

Wonderful Pod with great analysis and great guests. Russians should listen to this and learn and thing or two about their evil government and incompetent military.
pab54pab54 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/23
Excellent analysis and guests! Thank you!

I listen to every show. Keep up the insightful work team.

Wonderful Podcast!

I initially listened to the Falklands episodes and found them so interesting I have now moved on to the Ukraine series. Excellent format, easy to listen to and with good external contributors.
R.J.E... via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/01/23
If you’re still Shilling for Ukraine at this point you’re willfully ignorant. We staged the 2014 coup, and we’d never let Russia back a coup like that in Ottawa. Russia’s security concerns are completely valid, they were beyond patient, and everyone in the dark in Ukraine tonight has the US...Read full review »

ZACHSTEAL123 via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 12/16/22
I really enjoyed the Falklands series but I was sceptical about the team being able to do an equally good job about a contemporary war - after all they don’t call it the fog of war for nothing. I’m afraid my concerns were justified. By the time we got to a Russian “expert” who thinks Putin was...Read full review »

Very enjoyable

This is the best assessment to keep me up-to-date that I’ve found yet. Really compelling.

The ‘go-to’ source on the war in Ukraine.
Pontius Aquilla via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/03/22
Really the best, most measured and authoritative explanation of the war in Ukraine I have found.
Geoff635 via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 11/30/22
Really enjoy listening to this podcast. Just wish they did it more than once a week!
butler992 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/22/22
Gives all the essentials of the war in Ukraine with expert guests providing additional insights.
Weirdfraser via Apple Podcasts · Netherlands · 11/18/22
Consistently excellent, fascinating contributors, considered and realistic opinion, my only regret is I have to wait a week for the next installment
gterdscmiu via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/18/22
Terrific podcast. Insightful analysis, often interesting guests- have learned more about the war than from all other sources combined. I listen to each one as soon as it shows up.
Crowell iTunes via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/18/22
Hm
The Falkland stuff was really great. Don‘t think it works as good with the actual war. The podcast is often outdated = irrelevant at the time of publication. Do something about the Boers war, e.g.
AthanasiusPernath via Apple Podcasts · Norway · 11/13/22
I have been a military intelligence analyst for over 30 years. The balanced analysis when assessing the military situation is of a very high standard. For me, this podcast coupled with the Defence Intelligence bulletins covers many of the bases. Great work guys.

Even though is long enough sometimes I feel it’s too short…

Smart and concise discussions provide a range of thoughts on what is happening, history and thoughts about future in a fascinating, real politic chess game of a podcast. MoHeff

From the Falklands series to the war in Ukraine this podcast gives a perspective not matched !
