That was really weird. Was the unedited version of the file accidentally uploaded? Tons of rereads and throat clearing.
Just after mentioning the Western society, you present the fact that it's still expected in some parts of the world where men propose, which kinda implies that it is not a thing in the West. Let me tell you that it is a thing; you just need to look outside your bubble.

Really getting sick of hearing about The Feather Thief...
this was awesome, I knew from my history class there were resistance grps against the Nazi Regime but not any names. I'm a history but I guess you could say, so it is really neat my son hooked me up with your podcast. thank you for the history of today's date(2/22/1943).
not a fan of the background music. Makes it feel more like Serial and less like a history cast.
background music is a little sleepy
Very enjoyable podcast. I learn something new everyday. She has a very pleasing voice also. Perfect for podcasts.
