Tue, 23 May 2023 - 148 - 4.32 WWII in China part 1
Last episode we spent our time looking at the final aspect of Guadalcanal and that was the naval battles that took place in November 1942. It’s been a while since we discussed China, but I don’t want us to forget that aspect of the war, so we will spend several episodes talking about what was the Second Sino Japanese War. Now before I confuse anyone, let me remind you that yes, we did two episode on that conflict this season: episode 5 and 9. However, we left off with December 1941. So what’s been going on since then? I think it’s time we found out!

Today we move the narrative forward and find the U.S. Navy determined to hit the Japanese in the south Pacific, hopefully to stop their advance in the region. Failure to do so could mean the Japanese will threaten the shipping lanes to Australia. This battle is historic in that the two fleets, for the first time, will not actually see each other.

Today’s show is going to see us backtrack a tad. We haven’t really discussed the Philippines and General MacArthur’s area of responsibility, so it’s time to make that correction to the narrative.
First, we will look at the Philippines and General Douglas MacArthur. You might be surprised to learn he wasn’t all that popular with his men in early 1942 and we will discuss the reason why. Then, in the next episode, we will move on and discuss the British in Southeast Asia, specifically Singapore and Malaya.

Fable Beard Company CBDMon, 16 May 2022 - 120 - 4.18 Ramping Up the War Effort Part 2In our last episode, we started to talk about how the United States ramped up war production. Or at least began the process of ramping up said production. This episode will take us deeper into that story. And what a story it is. Honestly, we could have spent many more than just two episodes detailing the way the US ramped up the war effort. But, the reality is, we don’t need that much of a deep dive. We just want to have a decent understanding, and I believe these two episodes give us the right balance.
Episode 4.18 looks at a gentleman named Henry Kaiser and how he came to be an important figure in this story. He was the man who owned the Richmond Shipyards, famous for producing Liberty Boats in WWII.

From there we move on and look at the expansion of NATO and it's effect on how Russia views the US and it's military alliance. There is a lot here, so enjoy.

I'm very excited to release this episode to the world. Originally it was supposed to focus on the men who eventually were promoted to 5 star admiral during the war. However, as I started writing it changed and thus so did the focus. Instead I decided to focus on one of the men, Fleet Admiral King, someone the average American is probably not familiar with. So enjoy!

- 99 - 4.3 Japan in the Early 20th Century
Today we take a short walk through Japanese history in the early 20th Century. This is a fascinating time period as it is somewhat contradictory. Slowly but surely an authoritarian state is being created, but for a moment there is a bit of liberalism. Sadly that will be crushed in the 1920s as Japan puts itself on a path toward imperialism and conquest in Asia.

Today we travel back into the 19th century to look at the "Meiji Restoration." This is essentially the beginning of "modern Japan" and is quite important for us if we are to understand the Japanese in the years leading to World War II.

Fable Beard Company CBDMon, 02 Aug 2021 - 97 - 4.1 Introduction to WWII in the Pacific
Finally, the day has arrived! We are now into "Season 4: WWII in the Pacific." I hope you all are as excited about this as I am.
Season 4 will be the most ambitious one yet. There is a lot of history goodness to explore when it comes to WWII, and I think you all will love it. Or I hope you do. First we will start off looking at Japan and China, then move into the US and the lead up to Pearl Harbor. It will be evident why I'm taking this approach fairly quickly, as I see the war in the Pacific starting with the outbreak of the Second Sino-Japanese War.

The fourth, and final, bonus episode of July to celebrate our 4th Anniversary. I interview author Scott Horton, the libertarian foreign policy expert and author of the book "Enough Already: Time to End the War on Terrorism." You can find Scott's work at antiwar.com and libertarianinstitute.org
Purchase the book here: Enough Already.Mon, 19 Jul 2021 - 94 - 4th Anniversary Bonus Episode
Amazingly we have hit the fourth anniversary. Back in 2017 I wasn't sure if I'd still be doing this in 2021. Heck, in April 2020 I wasn't sure any of us would still be around. LOL
But here we are. Four years and almost 100 episodes later, the show is continuing to grow. This episode features an interview with me. This time I am the one being interviewed. The interviewer is a former student, George. He was a member of the class of 2012 and is a graduate of the University of Texas.
Instead of the usual Monday release, I'm releasing it a tad bit early. I hope you enjoy this long bonus episode.

- 91 - Bonus Episode: Cold War Potpourri
This is a discussion I recently had with Samantha Skory, a former student of mine who is now a college graduate and specializes in the Cold War. I have a feeling Sam is going to become a semi-regular guest on the show. I should say we are mostly talking about a book by former U.S. Ambassador to Russia, Michael McFall, but we are really all over the place here. Kind of a potpourri episode. Enjoy!

Instead today you discover that the blue print for the New Deal was actually the programs Hoover did try and implement, but to no avail.
