This week we are joined by the Royal Historian, Literary Agent and author of “The Traitor King”, Andrew Lownie who has come on to settle several rages but mainly that EDWARD VIII WAS NOT A NAZI DUPE but an active intriguer with the Nazis. As well as to flatten the idea that he and Wallis Simpson shared this epic love story that would culminate in the sacrifice of a throne.

We’ll be talking how the Duke of Windsor engaged in plots against Churchill, Chamberlain, George VI and Britain. How we can breathe a heavy sigh of relief that he didn’t get to the throne.

You can learn more about Andrew’s research into Edward VIII by buying a copy of his book “The Traitor King”from the History Rage Bookshop, and you can follow him on Twitter @AndrewLownie

This week we are joined by the Curator of Hack Green Secret Nuclear Bunker in Cheshire, Lucy Siebert. Lucy joins us to rage that “PROTECT AND SURVIVE ISN’T SHIT”, and about Nuclear Civil Defence through the 1960s and beyond.

We’ll be talking the pros and cons of both the pamphlets and the public information films as well as the darker purposes and plans involved. We talk preservation of the state vs preservation of the people, the impact of nuclear attack and whether anything like Protect and Survive would be successful today.

This week Paul and Kyle are joined by Roger Moorhouse. Historian, broadcaster and author of “First to Fight”, “The Devil’s Alliance” and “Berlin At War”. He has featured in several documentaries including “Hitler’s Circle of Evil” and he joins us to talk about the almost eternal myth that the Polish Army charged tanks with Cavalry at the outbreak of World War 2.

Aside from this being total nonsense he tells us about how the Poles were not a defunct outdated force, how they were fighting a war on two fronts, the airforce wasn’t destroyed on the ground and that they stalled the German offensive in many places.

If you'd like to know more about this subject then why not buy a copy of his books from the History Rage Bookshop.

This week we welcome Historian of religion and belief, award winning author and Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, Dr. Francis Young who joins us to rage that Medieval Paganism didn't go underground in the Middle Ages.

He talks to Paul and Kyle about how the 'Green Man' is invented in the 1930s, how Christianity is just as weird as anything Paganism might offer and how clinging to this myth is actually damaging our understanding of religion and the medieval period.

This week we welcome Former Assistant Curator of the Royal Engineers Museum, current Curator of the Royal Logistics Corps Museum and absolute Napoleon groupie Sam Jolley

Sam has come to rage at Paul and Kyle about how there is a whole load more to the Royal Engineers than building bridges in World War 2. There's a VC for extreme carpentry, there are armed floating tractors, super gas, giant molotov cocktails and a huge number of places where 300 years of Sapper history has left its mark.

You can follow Sam on Twitter @s_jolley and you can follow the Royal Engineers Museum at @REMuseum or better yet, why not visit the museum in Medway? Visit their website here

This week we're staying in 17th Century as we welcome Historian, and author of "Fighting for Liberty", Steve Carter who joins us to rage that the Monmouth Rebellion was not some rag tag bunch of peasants armed with pitchforks.

He talks to Paul and Kyle about the backers, the plan and the impressively advanced equipment that Monmouth lands with and how the rebellion falls apart, not because of a shoddy army, but because of the role of intelligence and information.

This week we welcome 17th Century Historian, and History Hack Regular, Charlotte White who joins us to rage that it's about time we shut the **** up about the damned Tudors.

She talks to Paul and Kyle about how the Stuarts have all the drama, glamour, intrigue and everything you want from fascinating history, way ahead of just Henry VIII and his collection of wives. How Charles II changes the country and leaves a mark we still have today.

This week we welcome Historian, Author  and host of the Condensed Histories Podcast Jem Duducu who joins Paul and Kyle to rant that we just don't treat the Crusades with enough attention to detail.

He talks to Paul and Kyle about how the last Crusade was as late as the 1930s, how some Crusades were Christian against Christian and how some even had Christians and Muslims fighting on the same side.

In short, the Crusades are a lot more than just heading off to the Middle east to kick in some Muslims.
