Dreadful!
This is a shocking podcast! It is full of inaccuracies, is distastefully disrespectful and historically awful. It is interspersed with chuckling, giggling while discussing attacks and the way casualties are referred to! Oh let’s attack (then laughter) and it’s going to fail - more laughter. It is not about the Somme. It jumps around all over the place, even mentioning Romania at one point. The Somme was not a seven mile front! Also try brushing up on your pronunciation of French towns/villages. Oh and let’s (at the end of the podcast) mention the battle of Thiepval, one of the most famous aspects of the battle of the Somme! My grandfather advanced on Thiepval from Thiepval Wood in the 2nd Salford pals having watched the 1st pals wiped out minutes before! Finally, it was not Britain versus Germany. That is one way in which this podcast was so disrespectful to the memory of tens of thousands of Australians, New Zealander’s, Indians, South Africans, Irish, French. Your joke about Austrians going in to battle with their hands raised just dumbfounded me! What an appalling apology for a description of the Somme!!

Actually like this a lot, with a good amount of detail, but very American focused which limits the appeal. Some will like this more than others.
