We've made it to Episode 85 and the depleted Bilge Pumps crew have been joined this week by the exceptional Prof. Sal Mercogliano (@mercoglianos), and it's to discuss what the defacto Blockades of Ukraine and Russia mean for the future; sadly no Jamie, but Drachinifel and Alex were at full volume with their participation so hopefully that filled the gap till he once again can return with his dulcet antipodean tones.

We would also very much like any comments, topic suggestions or ideas for artwork to be tweeted to us, the #Bilgepump crew (with #Bilgepumps), at Alex (@AC_NavalHistory), Drach (@Drachinifel), and Jamie (@Armouredcarrier). Or you can comment on our YouTube channels (listed down below).
