Show Notes

Highlights of this episode include diving into the gritty chaos of D-Day - a historic military operation more famous for storming beaches than the high-stakes gamble it really was. We’ll uncover how a single day in Normandy became a symbol of global resistance, then somehow turned into the backdrop for every war movie with a slow-motion beach run. From weather delays to war room nerves, we’ll trace the unbelievable coordination behind this world-changing day. Packed with history, fun facts, and just enough cultural snark to impress your friends, this episode will leave you feeling battle-ready - even if your knowledge of World War II begins and ends with Saving Private Ryan.
