I think you would love the "Ghosts of the Osfront" series by Dan Carlin. Don't think its offered for free anymore, though. Might have to buy it.


Personally, I wasn't impressed with Ghosts of the Ostfront at all. It was rushed and wasn't exhaustive at all. It's not bad for people who aren't terribly familiar with Eastern Front but I think Darth would probably feel the same way about it as I did.

Now Countdown to Armageddon was fantastic. Carlin admitted that even it wasn't exhaustive enough and it was about 5 times longer than Ghosts of the Ostfront.

Well damn. I was hoping it would be a more detailed podcast.

I freaking loved Countdown to Armageddon. In fact I've enjoyed all Dan Carlin's podcasts that I've listened to this far. Prophets of Doom and the series on the Mongols (King of Kings I think it was called) are the other ones I've listened to so far.
