The Naval Fiction Interviews: Antoine Vanner and Nicholas Dawlish

In this episode of our naval fiction series, we step beyond the age of Nelson and into the turbulent world of the late nineteenth century—a period when sail gave way to steam, wooden warships became ironclads, and naval technology advanced at a pace that left entire generations struggling to keep up. It was an age of empire, innovation and uncertainty, offering one of the richest backdrops imaginable for maritime storytelling.My guest is Antoine Vanner, creator of the acclaimed Dawlish Chronicles, a thirteen-volume series following naval officer Nicholas Dawlish through a rapidly changing world of iron warships, diplomatic crises, espionage and imperial rivalry. We discuss why the Victorian navy remains such fertile ground for fiction, how real historical events—from China and Constantinople to Korea, Sudan and Paraguay—shape his stories, and why the decades before the First World War were among the most dramatic in maritime history.Drawing on a lifetime spent working across Africa, the Middle East and beyond, Antoine explains how personal experience informs his writing, helping him capture not just the mechanics of naval warfare, but the realities of leadership, danger, politics and human resilience. Along the way, we explore Victorian geopolitics, technological revolution, moral ambiguity, literary influences ranging from Dickens and Thackeray to Trollope and Gissing, and the enduring appeal of naval fiction itself.This is a fascinating conversation about history, storytelling and an era poised between the world of sail and the modern age—a world where the future was arriving at full speed and nobody quite knew where it would lead.

RePete opens the show and a call with Sticks about buying an airplane. Apparently, Sticks needed an airplane-shaped hole in his finances! Before that, two quick health check-ins: Fig is nursing an eye injury (prescription: beach time, not flight time). Meanwhile, Bago is recovering from a pathologic knee fracture, mistaken for arthritis for weeks. Good news — the lesion’s benign, and he’ll be back producing the show soon. Then things get properly ridiculous. Naval aviator “Vegas” (aka Lieutenant Jones) joins the show. First there’s a reference to a sword salute in his Dress Blues behind a hangar… the full story about that can be heard in our “Blues Brothers Episode 90” then takes the opportunity to relive his Harrier ejection over the Neuse River. During a training hop at VMAT-203, an electronic fuel control failure sparked two engine fires on approach. Buck’s play-by-play (“Vegas, you’re on fire, eject, eject…”) barely finished before Vegas was through the canopy. He landed on a golf course, no green fees required. Finally, Porky swings by to reminisce about the last public USMC Harrier demo. The guys wrap up with “Get Better Fig.” Thanks to One Skin and DC Artworks for keeping the lights (and occasionally the jets) on.

Signing the Declaration of Independence was just the beginning.  We then had to go out and confront the British and earn our independence.  The first major battle of the American Revolution after signing the Declaration of Independence was the Battle of Long Island in the summer of 1776.  Gen. George Washington faced off against a larger and better equipped Naval force and though the Continental Army retreated, General Washington showed traits that would be be vital for the eventual victory in the war.  To discuss the importance of these events and the lessons learned by Gen. Washington and the colonists, we are deeply honored to welcome a great friend to Constituting America.  Dr. Peter Cressy, retired U.S. Rear Admiral, spent 28 years serving in the United States Navy and is a former Chancellor of the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth.

Ian sits down with Asher Bykov, Head of Growth at USVC, AngelList's newly launched publicly accessible venture fund, to talk about how they took USVC from a hundred and fifty investors to tens of millions of impressions on launch day. Asher shares why the biggest marketing lever wasn't a campaign but years of owned audience-building through Naval Ravikant's podcast and Ankur Nagpal's Silly Money newsletter, how a great offer beats great copywriting every time, and why he thinks about brand as a promise you keep rather than a logo you design. Key Takeaways: A great offer beats great marketing. Asher ranks the sequence as offer, then copywriting, then design, then media buying - no amount of clever positioning saves a weak offer. Owned audiences compound for years before they pay off. Naval's podcast, Ankur's Silly Money newsletter, and AngelList's own network turned USVC's launch into demand capture rather than demand generation. Brand is a promise, not a logo. Borrowing from Seth Godin, Asher argues that consistently delivering on what you tell your audience matters more than any campaign, rebrand, or design choice.

Returning guest David Murrin begins by considering US President Donald Trump's gambits in the Middle East as he seeks to prevail over Iran. In a discussion with host Iain Ballantyne - recorded before Iran and the USA reverted to a state of war (in July) - David reflected on the Trump pattern of seeking peace deals followed by more bombing.These are the US President's ‘peace bombs,' as David describes them, with the Iran War and struggle for the Strait of Hormuz turning out like ‘Suez on steroids.'The consequences of President Trump's approach to allies, his treatment of foes and overall strategy are also covered, before turning to Europe's laziness in defence and the military spending laggard that is the United Kingdom.David also explains what he learned about modern warfare during a recent visit to Ukraine and how Kyiv's forces have chosen a lateral response to the Russian aggressors rather than linear. According to David a future threat for Europeans to be concerned about will be China's navy in the High North and he cautions that - whatever the threat is in the great waters of the Atlantic and Arctic - drones are not the entire solution.In the meantime, so David contends, Britain and other NATO nations are already at war with Russia but only now are they waking up to that fact. Turning to Royal Navy, David weighs up the push for the ‘hybrid navy' and ‘evolution' versus ‘revolution' at a difficult time in which the UK appears to have lost touch with its naval identity. He considers the British fleet has been destroyed by politicians since the late 1990s, and that they have let down both the nation and NATO. During this lively episode David also gives his perspective on what China has learned from the Iran War and more.• The August 2026 edition of Warships IFR is published on 17.7.26 in the UK and also deployed globally.

President Trump has repeated his intention to re-impose a naval blockade on Iran, as the battle for control of the Strait of Hormuz continues.  Also on the programme, Spain's Supreme Court has ruled that those with a particularly close connection to the person wanting to die may have the right to contest that death wish; and one of the world's most important political cartoonists, Pat Oliphant, has died.(Photo: US President Donald Trump meets with Iraqi PM Ali al-Zaidi at the White House, Washington, USA - 14 Jul 2026.

Straight from the front lines — Fox News' Lucas Tomlinson joins The Marc Cox Morning Show live from Tel Aviv with a full battlefield update as America enters a third consecutive night of strikes against Iran. Tomlinson breaks down President Trump's newly reinstated oil blockade, the Navy's cutting-edge sea drones taking out Iran's largest naval base, and 20 U.S. warships now enforcing the Strait of Hormuz — proof of American strength projected without apology. Tomlinson also gives listeners a ground-level view from Israel: a rare stretch of calm, Netanyahu's tough re-election fight, and the lasting legacy of the late Senator Lindsey Graham as a stalwart ally of Israel. Marc highlights how the Abraham Accords, built under President Trump's leadership, continue paying dividends for peace and security in the region — a stark contrast to the chaos of the previous administration. This is the kind of no-spin, boots-on-the-ground reporting only The Marc Cox Morning Show delivers. Coming up: the St. Louis Morning Brief and former State Senator John Lamping on the August 4th primary.

The U.S. launched a fourth straight night of strikes and is reimposing its naval blockade of all Iranian ports, its most formal step toward resuming full-scale war with Iran. President Trump says the move is designed to starve Iran's regime of oil revenue. Iran, in turn, continues to attack ships and U.S. allies in the Gulf, and refuses to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

Confira os destaques do Jornal da Manhã desta terça-feira (14): Os Estados Unidos iniciam nesta terça-feira (14), às 17h pelo horário de Brasília, um bloqueio naval para impedir o tráfego de embarcações ligadas ao Irã. A operação começa um dia após o presidente Donald Trump afirmar que pretende assumir o controle do Estreito de Ormuz, classificando os EUA como os "guardiões" da rota marítima e defendendo a cobrança de uma taxa de 20% sobre as cargas transportadas pelo estreito. Durante o conflito, navios militares americanos já haviam bloqueado a entrada de embarcações iranianas na região com o objetivo de impedir o transporte de produtos ligados ao Irã e pressionar a economia do país, em resposta ao fechamento da passagem por Teerã. Reportagem: Fabrizio Neitzke. O PT iniciou uma campanha nacional para pressionar o Senado a votar a Proposta de Emenda à Constituição (PEC) que prevê o fim da escala de trabalho 6x1. O presidente nacional do partido, Edinho Silva, convocou militantes para uma mobilização nas redes sociais com o objetivo de intensificar a cobrança sobre o presidente do Senado, Davi Alcolumbre (União Brasil-AP), e os demais parlamentares para que a proposta avance na Casa. A PEC já foi aprovada pela Câmara dos Deputados e aguarda análise dos senadores. Reportagem: Misael Mainetti. O presidente dos Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, anunciou nesta segunda-feira (13) que o país passará a cobrar um pedágio de 20% sobre toda a carga transportada pelo Estreito de Ormuz e retomará o bloqueio aos portos iranianos. Em publicação na rede Truth Social, Trump afirmou que os Estados Unidos serão os “guardiões” da rota marítima e que a cobrança servirá para compensar os custos de segurança na região. O presidente também informou que o bloqueio será direcionado a navios e clientes ligados ao Irã, ampliando a pressão sobre Teerã em meio à escalada das tensões no Oriente Médio. Reportagem: Luca Bassani. O ministro Alexandre de Moraes, do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF), suspendeu por 90 dias o direito de visita do senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ) ao ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro. A decisão também determina que a defesa de Jair Bolsonaro esclareça, em 48 horas, se ele tinha conhecimento da divulgação de uma carta escrita durante a prisão domiciliar e publicada nas redes sociais do filho. O caso foi encaminhado ao procurador-geral eleitoral para apuração de uma possível ocorrência de propaganda eleitoral antecipada. Reportagem: Marco Viana. O ex-presidente do Irã, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, estaria em prisão domiciliar sob custódia da divisão de inteligência da Guarda Revolucionária Islâmica, segundo informações publicadas pelo jornal americano The New York Times, com base em autoridades iranianas. De acordo com a reportagem, a medida teria ocorrido após suspeitas de que Ahmadinejad manteve interações com agentes de inteligência de Israel. A situação do ex-presidente permaneceu incerta desde o início da guerra envolvendo Estados Unidos, Israel e Irã. O jornal também informou que Israel teria desenvolvido um plano para recrutar Ahmadinejad como ativo de inteligência e utilizá-lo em uma eventual mudança de regime no país. Reportagem: Luca Bassani.

The US-Iran ceasefire is in crisis following a violent weekend of escalation. From the IRGC damaging a ship in the Strait of Hormuz so badly that the crew had to abandon it, to President Donald Trump declaring he "bombed the hell out of them" after striking dozens of targets, the war appears to be back on in all but name. Now, Trump has reimposed the US naval blockade and announced a toll.On today's episode of Iran: the Latest, Venetia Rainey and Roland Oliphant break down a frantic weekend of military action, including the US deploying one-way attack sea drones for the first time and the collapse of Omani negotiations to reopen the Hormuz waterway. Plus, the damage done by Iran repeatedly launching missile and drone strikes against US airbases across the Gulf and Jordan is growing.

A gladiator named Diodorus defeated his opponent Demetrius in the arena, accepted his submission, discarded his own helmet and shield, and reached for the palm branch that marked his victory. Then the referee refused to honor the submission and ordered the fight to continue. Diodorus was killed. His tombstone, which survives, reads: "Murderous Fate and the cunning treachery of the referee killed me, and leaving the light, I have gone to Hades." Another gladiator named Urbicus, who had once spared a defeated opponent and was later killed by that same man in a rematch, left behind the most chilling last words in Roman history: "I advise that he who defeats a man should kill him." Today's guest is Harry Sidebottom, author of *Those Who Are About to Die: A Day in the Life of a Roman Gladiator*. Structured as a single twenty-four-hour cycle from the gladiators' last supper through the morning beast hunts, midday executions, and afternoon combat, Sidebottom's book dismantles almost everything Hollywood has taught us about the arena. We discuss why gladiators were deliberately fattened on barley stew so their subcutaneous fat would produce spectacular bleeding from non-fatal wounds, how Roman senators kept illegally sneaking into gladiatorial schools despite repeated bans stretching across two centuries, why the Colosseum was built on top of Nero's artificial lake using plunder from the sack of Jerusalem, and how Galen pioneered human surgery by first vivisecting a live monkey and then treating wounded gladiators at Pergamum. We also look at why epileptics drank gladiator blood as medicine (and why Roman doctors reluctantly admitted it might work), how twenty-nine Saxon prisoners strangled each other without a rope rather than fight, and why Constantine did not actually abolish gladiatorial combat despite what every Christian source claims.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As Edwina took pains to lay low in Malta after the scandals of her affairs, Italy decided to exit the League of Nations and invade Ethiopia. To protect their children, she took them to Budapest and installed them in a hotel with their nanny and governess... and then forgot which hotel they were in. For months. As the summer of 1935 turned to fall, and then winter, they just stayed in their hotel until Edwina finally came across the paper she'd written the hotel's name on, tucked into the pocket of an outfit she hadn't worn in a while. Careless people. But then World War II came, and with so much asked of ordinary Britons, the privileged were required to step up. For perhaps the first time in her life, the skills and networking that Edwina had spent her life developing could suddenly be applied to a grand purpose: fundraising, organizing, lobbying for help in the United States. Louis was in the fight as a Naval officer, but Edwina was equally engaged, and the experience brought them together as never before. They would have further adventures together in India, overseeing the end of the Colonial period there, and form a distinct attachment to Indian Prime Minister Nehru that would last to the end of her life in 1960.
