We recorded this special WWII-themed episode on the 75th anniversary of the D-Day invasion, aka Operation Overlord. In the spirit of that anniversary, we decided to focus our episode’s topics around themes relating to WWII. In our Bike Talk segment, DXG and JJ take a stab at educating us on some of the historical highlights of the usage of bicycles and motorbikes in warfare. In our Game Talk segment, we discuss some WWII-related gaming options, and talk about plans for an awesome potential new house campaign. Finally, in our Bar Talk segment, we review the drinks of the evening, and tell stories of learning our favorite WWII-era beverages.
Also a big thank you shout out to Brandon, our first patron on Patreon! THANKS MATE! <3
