Episode 103.3 - "It was the most fearful day in the world...": The Spanish Armada, Part 3
In Part III of our Series on the Spanish Armada, it's showtime! We cover the engagements at Portland Bill, the Isle of Wight, and Gravelines. We discuss flyboats, fireships, and timebombs. We finally criticize our boy Medina Sidonia. This episode really has it all.
