What military parallels does Putin's invasion of Ukraine have with Hitler's attempt to invade the Soviet Union?
On today's pod Tom and Dominic are joined by historian - and brother of Tom - James Holland to discuss Operation Barbarossa and the Nazi invasion of 1941, whether it was doomed to fail, and the role it played in the escalation of the Holocaust.

This is criminally underviewed. You chaps are top notch.

Love Tom Holland and James Holland

@janeaustenist Год назад

Would love to hear both of them do shows together. They play off each other well. Big fan of both.

I needed more about the trucks tbh

@IanCross-xj2gj Месяц назад

50% of the Wehrmacht trucks were US designed Ford and General Motors. Germany didn't manufacture jeeps or many trucks.

Excellent episode. But why the hell is James shouting and speaking at 100mph?

@anthonychase4364 6 месяцев назад

James, be very careful making bland parallels between "Putin's invasion of Ukraine" and other monumental military blunders. Reason? Ukraine has been contested territory for 1000 years.

@cliveclerkenville2637 4 месяца назад

Putin did not invade Ukraine until the neocon plotting to annex the country became intolerable.

@daviebananas1735 Месяц назад

Yeah, they definitely haven’t been a sovereign country for decades. Perfectly reasonable to invade. Jesus H Christ.

Let the man talk about his trucks!

@robertdarby6553 2 года назад

I could have listened to a whole podcast just describing the 2,000 different types of truck.

@IanCross-xj2gj Месяц назад

@robertdarby6553 Wehrmacht trucks were largely US designs, Ford and General Motors. Strange but true.

@woo9238 Месяц назад

Well done

What is your take on Victor Suborov Icebreaker book?

I did not know how much I did not know about ww2 lol

@koxwell 5 месяцев назад

I love the topic but would enjoy it more with a more conversational style. Too much energy cutting off interesting branches. Bit frustrating.

@Ed-om9xy 5 месяцев назад

it's interesting, I see what you mean, you could do five pods out of this

Although I enjoy listening to James, he is without a doubt a "Two Pinter". As in, you enjoy everything he says and love his enthusiasm, but you leave the pub before he comes to sit back down with his third pint.
