“This podcast is thorough, and therefore escapes a trap that much teaching on this subject had fallen into.
So many tellings of history focus almost exclusively on the main line narrative and only mention things that ‘advance the plot’ in the direction that narrative goes. The problem with that style is that the past was just as complex and muddled as the present, and often times, the stories that are relevant to our own lives and situations are actually the smaller subtler stories.
Obviously all history should be about what happened, and this podcast certainly is. It explores the how and the why through the author’s examination of many sources about this most devastating of human conflicts.
If you just want a 1-hour crash course on the whole conflict, then maybe this isn’t for you, but if you want to hear a lot of interesting discussion of what went into creating and ending this human calamity, then I think you’ll enjoy and benefit from this. The chronological topic based analysis is organized and helpful to understanding what happened. I think this will become one of the best free resources available to understanding WWII by the time it is completed. It is a massive undertaking, but the author already did one of these on WWI, and it was excellent. I have faith that he’ll see the vision through.”

“Gave it a go but the amount of historical and pronunciation errors (in English and German) made it unlistenable. It’s a shame as
I’m interested in the Anschluss period of Austrian history.”

“Nothing is more disappointing than finding a show on interesting subject matter, but not being able to listen because of the performance and delivery. This show is exhibit A.”
