A visit to the National Museum of Military Vehicles in Dubois, Wyoming. In this episode, I walk through one of the most complete armored vehicle collections in the world, sharing impressions, standout vehicles, and conversations that bring the history of armored warfare off the page and into the real world.

This episode was also recorded earlier, so I apologize in advance for the lower audio quality.

In this episode, we explore the origins of the A1E1 Independent, tracing how British interwar tank thinking, financial constraints, and War Office requirements led to one of the most ambitious and unconventional tank designs of the 1920s. Focusing on its intended role as a fast, heavily armed breakthrough tank, this episode examines why the Independent looked so promising on paper—and why its bold design choices would soon face hard limits in reality.

By the end of the First World War, J.F.C. Fuller had seen the future of warfare—but Britain wasn’t ready to follow him there. Part Two traces Fuller’s post-war career, his growing isolation, and the slow sidelining of one of the army’s most original thinkers. It’s the story of a man whose ideas survived long after his influence did.

Today, we pause to honor every man and woman who has ever worn a uniform. From the mud of Flanders to the sands of the desert, from the skies above Europe to the streets of faraway cities — each answered when their country called. This episode is dedicated to them: the veterans who fought, who endured, and who carried home the memories that the rest of us cannot. Their courage built our freedom, and their sacrifice reminds us that peace is never free.

In this first part of our two-episode look at J.F.C. Fuller, we explore how a curious, eccentric English officer became one of the most influential—and controversial—military thinkers of the twentieth century. From his unusual upbringing to the trenches of the First World War, Fuller’s restless intellect reshaped the way modern armies would fight.

In this special episode, we explore the mysterious Japanese O-I superheavy tank—the 120+ ton prototype shrouded in secrecy and speculation. With almost no hard evidence of its existence beyond a few blueprints and scattered reports, the O-I remains one of World War II’s biggest “what ifs.” I’m joined by a guest to discuss its theoretical battlefield role, logistics, and legacy. This is a conversation built on what we know… and what we can only imagine.

The Medium D was Britain’s bold attempt to build a true fast tank after WWI — powerful, experimental, and ambitious, but ultimately too unreliable to survive.
