Part one of our First Episode examining WWI. Episode one deals with the conditions that made WWI possible, and the complicated conflicts, geopolitical struggles, and economic factors that worked in terrifying harmony. This episode covers the Russian and Japanese war of 1904-1905.

Picking up where we left off in WW1 history at the end of the Marne, this episode covers the events of the first battle of Ypres. We introduce our guest Mikey, also known on Instagram as @the_okayest_, and together we ramble on about this battle that caps off what becomes known as the western front for the next four years of the war.
