À propos de ce contenu audio
 A fast-moving history of the western world from the ancient world to the present day. Examine how the emergence of the western world as a global dominant power was not something that should ever have been taken for granted. This podcast traces the development of western civilization starting in the ancient Near East, through Greece and Rome, past the collapse of the Western Roman Empire into the Dark Ages, and then follows European and, ultimately, American history as the western world moved into a dominant world position.Copyright Adam Walsh Sciences sociales

    While Operation Overlord and D-Day get all the press in 1944, there were other battles being fought in the Pacific Theater, by the Soviet Union in the east, and, of course, in Italy. Today we cover all that to bring us up to June 1944 in all our theaters of war.

    Operation Overlord was not one day. It took months to prepare for D-Day and, even then, D-Day fits within the context of the continuing, larger war, which was still very much going on. But D-Day remains a crucial hinge point in the war. Today, we explore its story.

    Kennedy's Only Hero
    Nov 3 2026
    Today I sit down with author and historian, Joel Nelson, to discuss his book Kennedy's Only Hero: How JFK's Obsession with Winston Churchill Defined His Presidency. It is rare to get a biographical piece that features the two most common biographies I get. But it happened! This masterful piece examines how Churchill changed JFK in multiple ways - several of which we break down in the interview. The book is a great read for lovers of JFK, Churchill, western history, and everyone in between.
