This podcast feels like a passport into the modern military world. The hosts draw from a far wider roster than the usual “same-unit, same-theatre” line-up you hear elsewhere. That broader reach brings fresh perspectives, surprising stories, and a deeper understanding of Western military life in all its variety. I pressed play on one episode and suddenly I’d binge-marched through half the catalogue. Highly recommended for anyone curious about the people behind the uniform. 🎙️💂‍♂️
