A great episode. A harrowing account of what it could mean to be PBI, in a battle I'd never heard of. Outstanding primary sources.

My acid-test for most podcasts is...who would you like to sit down with for a casual chat on an interesting topic (or better yet, does the podcast itself feel like that)? Pete and Gary are a prime example of that idea: genial, knowledgeable, able to convey serious history without taking themselves too seriously. I greatly enjoy this podcast!

Refreshing mix of humour, serious analysis and slapstick. Great for anyone interested in WWI and beyond. Pete and Gary have a great banter and obvious passion for the subject matter. Pete's experience with veterans brings a fantastic additional layer to the narratives.
