very action packed. its worth downloading.

Interesting & quick, but a lot of fluf

by Nicholas Clemens

This podcast gives you nice litle histories of the modern military which are self contained, and accurate, but they try and make it more exciting and it comes of a little funny. Constantly skipping around and often laughable metaphores from the narator drag this down, but it still is solid and at least for now frequently updated.

Great podcast
