La Maison du Whisky, Version Française, and Everything About French Whisky I love "visiting" new countries through the podcast. Granted, France we had technically touched before through Brenne, but I'd heard that there was so much more to learn about the French culture of drinking and spirit production - so who better to talk to than Marion Attardi and Matthieu Acar, of La Maison & Velier and La Maison du Whisky, respectively. Marion and Matthieu are subject matter giants in whiskies generally, but both bring a special expertise to French whisky. While long a top market for Scotch single malt (drinking more per capita than any other nation), France has only recently begun distilling its own whiskies and single malts (~1983 is a general starting point). Yet despite starting domestic production around the same time as the earliest American craft distillers, French producers have remained mostly small and independent. Only the oldest and largest - Armorik, for example) have made it to the US market, and many haven't made it outside of France or the EU at most. So, why do an episode about French whisky if you can't taste much of it? Because soon enough you'll be able to - and I guarantee you're going to love it. Whether it's a distillery that grew out of a brewery, one doing their own take on peat, one using local wine casks from Bordeaux or calvados from Normandy, the variety is astounding and delicious. Three Version Française expressions are available in the US, with more on the way. You can also shop through La Maison du Whisky, The Whisky Exchange, and many other international retailers to find gems from all over France. This was just the opening conversation - there will be many more! Especially if Matthieu's compendium on the first 40 years of French whisky gets an English translation...

Send us a textThe sacrifice of our hometown heroes often becomes lost in the broader narrative of world-changing events. Today, we resurrect the memory of Sergeant Carl Yarrington, an Ogden native whose brief but impactful life ended on the beaches of Normandy during D-Day.Carl's story embodies the quintessential American journey from small-town promise to battlefield heroism. As senior class president of Ogden High's class of 1938 and Lieutenant Colonel in ROTC, his leadership qualities emerged early. At just 16 years old, he followed family tradition by enlisting in the Utah National Guard, serving in the same unit his father had during World War I. What makes Carl's story particularly poignant is how his pre-war activities—coordinating school dances with military-themed decorations—would foreshadow his ultimate fate.When war came, Carl volunteered for one of the most dangerous assignments possible: becoming a paratrooper with the 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment. We trace his training across America before his deployment to Northern Ireland, where he prepared for what would become history's largest amphibious invasion. The chaos of D-Day unfolds through vivid accounts of misdropped paratroopers, anti-aircraft fire tearing through parachutes, and the confusion of landing miles from intended targets. Carl's final moments leading his men forward against impossible odds speak to the courage that defined the Greatest Generation.Journey with us to the hallowed grounds of Normandy, where Carl now rests among fellow heroes, and discover how one Weber County son's sacrifice fits into the tapestry of American history. His story reminds us that freedom isn't free—it's purchased with the lives of hometown heroes like Sergeant Carl Yarrington.
Join Lionel Birnie, Graham Willgoss, Rob Hatch and François Thomazeau for the first part of The Cycling Podcast's bumper Tour de France preview. This episode focuses on the first half of the 112th Tour, which will take the riders from Lille in the north east, across to Normandy and Brittany before cutting down through the heart of France to the Massif Central. The head-to-head battle between Tadej Pogačar and Jonas Vingegaard is currently tied at 2-2, with the Slovenian winning in 2021 and 2024 and the Dane taking back-to-back victories in 2022 and 2023. But, as closely-matched as they often seem, none of those four clashes has been particularly close and, as we saw at the Dauphiné last month, Pogačar seems to have the upper hand at the moment. So, will we see a battle royale between the Three Tenors – © Rob Hatch – with Remco Evenepoel one of the riders most suited to a punchy, scrappy opening week, especially with a time trial to contend with? François breaks down the route and explains what we have to look forward to before the first rest day after ten stages. Part two of The XL Tour de France Preview will be online soon... INTRODUCING VAN RYSEL, OUR TOUR DE FRANCE SPONSORS We are very pleased to welcome Van Rysel as our sponsors for the first half of our Tour de France coverage.

In this episode of Busy Gallivanting, I'm sharing my first impressions and honest reflections from a two-week solo trip to Paris, France. I knew I wasn't really a “Paris girl” before I even arrived, but I wanted to experience the city firsthand. Along the way, I navigated cultural differences—from the importance of greeting shop owners with “bonjour” to figuring out what it's really like to be a solo female traveler in Paris.I also talk about the challenges of balancing work while on the road, my culinary adventures, and why I found myself enjoying Normandy and the Champagne region more than the city itself.This episode is a grounded, thoughtful look at Paris—its charm, its quirks, and why not every trip has to be life-changing to be meaningful. Part 1 of a 4-part series breaking down Paris.

In this episode, I bring you something that's been on my heart to recreate for years. Inspired by the spontaneous, powerful moments I used to have during the Clubhouse era, I've launched a new live format called "How May I Serve You Today? Ask Me Anything." The idea is simple: I open a Zoom room, stream it live on Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn, and invite people to jump in for real-time, unscripted conversations. Just like the Clubhouse rooms I used to host, my intention is to hold space for deep coaching, authentic dialogue, and transformational moments in full view of a live audience. This is what I love most about coaching: witnessing the miraculous in everyday moments. Now, I get to bring that to you in podcast form. This episode features four unique conversations, each with its own flavor and insight: Conversation 1 – Ramon: Distraction as Enlightenment | Time Stamp 00:11:30 Ramon Ray, motivational keynote speaker and event host asked how to stay focused when a flurry of possibilities tugs at his attention. Together we: Clarified his personal definition of distraction as “not being focused on a single task for a meaningful amount of time.” Explored how repeated distractions can signal mis-alignment, tasks that belong in someone else's zone of excellence, not his own zone of genius. Reframed procrastination as feedback rather than failure, helping Ramon see that some tasks may simply need to be delegated or dropped. Listen for: A practical mindset shift that turns every interruption into a cue for deeper self-inquiry and better task design. Conversation 2 – Curtis: Re-awakening the Power to Dream | Time Stamp 00:37:18 Long-time listener Curtis joined to envision life after retirement. He struggled at first, so I invited him to “play make-believe.” Once he let his imagination lead, an inspiring vision unfolded: Curtis is guiding a bus tour across Europe, Abbey Road photos in London, the Isle of Wight Festival, Disneyland Paris, Normandy beaches, and more. The exercise linked childhood memories of GI Joe adventures to present-day possibilities, proving his imaginative muscles are still strong. Listen for: A repeatable prompt you can use to help clients (or yourself) move past “I don't know” and paint a vivid future. Conversation 3 – DeLyn: Launching a Grief Podcast without Perfection Paralysis | Time Stamp 01:12:21 DeLyn, an educator and grief advocate, has several episodes recorded but hasn't published due to fear and tech concerns. Together we: Identified her top blockers—perfectionism, intro/outro music, editing, and a self-imposed August 30 National Grief Awareness Day deadline. Reframed “perfect” to mean “the best I can with what I have right now,” reducing her fear score from a nine to about a three. Offered simple launch logistics (Buzzsprout hosting, minimalist artwork, optional music) and reminded her that an unpolished but heartfelt episode serves more people than silence. Listen for: Practical tips for shipping creative work even when your inner critic demands studio-level production. Conversation 4 – Mark: Releasing a Lifelong Fear of Judgment | Time Stamp 01:47:04 Mark arrived carrying a visceral fear of sending invoices to clients, a pattern that traces back to ridicule on his first day of kindergarten. Our dialogue centered on: Using The Four Agreements, especially “Don't take anything personally” and “Don't make assumptions” as daily practice. Viewing critics and trolls as mirrors that reveal hidden internal triggers, turning them into unexpected allies. Recognizing the physical release of fear (a “lightness in the chest” and tears) as evidence that old stories are dissolving. Listen for: A real-time demonstration of how a single mindset tool can lift decades-old emotional weight. Enjoy the episode, and if you'd like to join a future live session, keep an eye on my email list or hop into the stream the next time you see the “How May I Serve You Today?” banner.

Could you imagine? I let me tell you something. I'm getting sick of these news reports talking about how, oh, the oh, oh, we have no idea. Oh, it was a it was a it was a disaster. Oh, midnight hammer was did not accomplish. They have no bleeping idea. No bleeping idea whatsoever. They laid out all of that information this morning in the press conference. They dropped bunker busters into a hole the size of a washing machine, And now they're gonna claim that that it did not accomplish the I'm not well, you compare that with the fact that Israel was able to go in and take out nine or 10 of their nuclear scientists. Well, you know, they could still rebuild. Yeah. They could rebuild their program. Yeah. But it's gonna take them a heck of a long time, and you know what? We're gonna drop some bombs if they do that again. Aren't you glad that these people weren't around during D Day? Good grief. What what would that reporting be like? Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is your evening broadcast from Fox News Radio, bringing you grave tidings from the war torn shores of Normandy. It's 06/06/1944, and the ambitious allied invasion code named Operation Overlord was a catastrophic failure. Eisenhower promised the destruction of the entire Nazi party, but was only managed to kill several 100,000. This was a failure. I mean, that's that's exactly what it would would have been like. I oh my god. We are seeing just how anti American our mainstream media is, and it is vomit inspiring. Vomit inspiring. The way they're acting. Good lord. It it makes me mad. It literally makes me angry. When we had all of those planes, we had submarines, we had we had aircraft. This and nobody knew it was happening. Nobody knew it was happening. They were able to go over there, fly thirty five hours, round trip, drop the bombs, come home, and everybody was like, wait a minute. What the heck just went on? What the heck just happened? Sorry. Sorry, folks. It was a success. It was a success. I know you hate Trump. I know you don't like the guy. But just because you have that in you does not mean that you can diminish the accomplishments of what he, Pete Hegseff, Marco Rubio, Tulsi Gabbard, and all of our fighting men and women accomplished in Operation Midnight Hammer. Let me ask you something. If it was a failure, is now just ask yourself this logical question. If it was a failure, how come Iran is negotiating? How come Iran is now talking? How come Iran set up they've just sent off that ridiculous little, patty cake with the missiles and even warned us that they were coming. But you know we have to do something, so and they shoot them off. These these mainstream media folks are just so un American. Charlie, does anybody even listen to the mainstream media anymore? Well, not really. No. Charlie, they weren't told so they can get on the news and tell the enemy that we were coming. Yeah. You're exactly right. That's why the Democrats are mad. Democrats are mad. They they but they were told. Chuck Schumer was told. Hakeem do what they tried to tell Hakeem Jeffries. He wouldn't pick up his phone. But there you go. Charlie, let's see. They hate us because they ain't us. Yeah. You're exactly right. Where do they get these people? Where do they get them? I don't know. So anyway, they're making me nauseous, and I know they're making president Trump mad, and I know they're making Pete Hegseth mad, coming out with these ridiculous stories. When they don't when they have let me ask you something. How many reporters have broadcast from inside Iran in the past seventy two hours. How many reporters have broadcast from any of those sites? None. None. Who are they getting their information from? I'll tell you who they're getting their information from, the Democrats. They're getting it from the Democrats and other people in the media, both domestic and foreign press. Charlie, even one of Iran's ministers said publicly it was a success. Yep. That's right. ...

Recently I travelled for a couple of months in France, road tripping from the top of the country in Normandy to the bottom at the Côte d'Azur and towards the end of my stay I enjoyed a most marvellous visit with Caroline Riddell-Clark at her Villa Florente in Menton on the Italian border.Caroline has stayed in France each year for many years, spending much of that time in Menton staying with friends who had moved there a long time ago. So during the Melbourne Covid lockdowns it was not a surprise that Caroline was surfing the internet for the French real estate on offer and as soon as she could, she headed back over there! Whilst a long time ago Caroline had lived in France for a number of months near Toulouse, with her children even attending school there, it was Menton that had captured her heart. Caroline had decided to wait for a few years before purchasing a property but after 20 minutes in Villa Florente, she had bought the place!Menton has beautiful beaches with beautiful buildings of different colours, reflecting the colours of the Cinque Terre just across the Italian border. There is a long history including pirates as well as Russian palaces nestled in between Monte Carlo and Italy, and from Caroline's Villa Florente one can walk between 3 countries before lunch! I loved how a stroll into Italy can result in wonderful coffee followed by market shopping for fresh produce in France and then end the day with glitz and glamour in Monte Carlo! Caroline says after a walk like this, she comes home and feels like she's the luckiest person ever to look over her amazing Mediterranean view.Caroline now wants to welcome others to stay with her too, but first come and join us for a chat here on the Loulabelle's and escape to the Cote d'Azur momentarily.**Louise Prichard is the host of the Loulabelle's FrancoFiles podcast.**Other Loulabelle's links:FrancoFile Fix on YouTubeLoulabelle's FrancoFiles Spotify Playlist Loulabelle's FrancoFiles InstagramLoulabelle's FrancoFiles website
Send us a textThe Pentagon's busy doing backflips to avoid picking a side in the Israel-Iran slugfest, while the U.S. military quietly scrambles tankers, evacuates families, and acts like $300 is enough to survive Naples, Italy. Meanwhile, Air Force tankers take center stage, hypersonic weapons get a reboot (because we're behind... again), and Space Force finally gets a toy that isn't just PowerPoint.Plus: AI flight scheduling, Normandy's long-overdue tribute, the F-35's never-ending upgrade saga, and why the Naval Academy's race-based admissions policy should've died long ago. Add some Trump, NATO posturing, and North Korean diplomacy (lol) for flavor. You'll either be informed, outraged, or both—so grab your pre-workout and dive in.
On the morning of June 6th, 1944, war photographer Robert Capa waded ashore on Omaha Beach during the Allied landings in Normandy. What happened next became the stuff of legend: under withering fire, Capa supposedly captured over a hundred photographs of the chaos and courage of D-Day, only for all but eleven to be lost in a darkroom accident. These surviving images, the so-called “Magnificent Eleven,” helped define the visual memory of D-Day and cemented Capa's reputation as the greatest war photographer of the 20th century. But what if the story we've long accepted isn't entirely true? In his book Back into Focus: The Real Story of Robert Capa's D-Day, Charles Herrick takes a forensic look at the events of that day, unraveling inconsistencies in Capa's own account and challenging the myths that have grown around his legacy. Drawing on official military records, eyewitness testimony, and detailed photo analysis, Herrick offers a new—and at times controversial—perspective on one of the most iconic moments in photojournalism history. I'm delighted to welcome Charles to the podcast today to talk about what really happened on D-Day, how the legend of Robert Capa was built, and what his findings mean for how we understand both history and heroism. patreon.com/ww2podcast
June 16-22Many years ago, I read Les Misérables, by Victor Hugo: the unabridged version which is 1,463 pages long. Next to the scriptures, it was the greatest reading experience of any book I have ever had. I became so close to the characters, Jean Valjean, Monsieur Charles-François-Bienvenu Myriel—the Bishop of Digne (‘deen'), Fantine, Cosette, Gavroche, Marius, Javert and many others that I wept for a long time after I finished the book because I was so sad, I would not be able to meet them in the Spirit World! Maurine reminded me they were fictional characters. I was completely transported into their hearts, their world, their times, their pain, their burdens. Maurine and I even went to Victor Hugo's home in Guernsey Island off the coast of Normandy in the English Channel to get a sense of where he wrote this classic novel. Do you want to know my very favorite moment from the entire 1,463 pages? It has to do with our lesson in this episode.
In the summer of 1944, the Allied forces planned an audacious amphibious landing on the beaches of France. It involved hundreds of ships, over a hundred thousand men, and meticulous planning. Those who landed would face fierce resistance from entrenched German forces. …and I am not talking about D-Day and the invasion of Normandy.

REMEMBERING WHEN TOMMY ATKINS HIT GOLD, SWORD AND JUNO BEACH : 1/8: Brothers in Arms: One Legendary Tank Regiment's Bloody War from D-Day to VE-Day, by James Holland https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08YS123SZ/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tkin_p1_i0 In the annals of World War II, certain groups of soldiers stand out, and among the most notable were the Sherwood Rangers. Originally a cavalry unit in the last days of horses in combat, whose officers were landed gentry leading men who largely worked for them, they were switched to the “mechanized cavalry” of tanks in 1942. Winning acclaim in the North African campaign, the Sherwood Rangers then spearheaded one of the D-Day landings in Normandy on June 6, 1944; led the way across France; were the first British troops to cross into Germany, and contributed mightily to Germany's surrender in May 1945. Inspired by Stephen Ambrose's Band of Brothers, the acclaimed WWII historian James Holland memorably profiles an extraordinary group of citizen soldiers constantly in harm's way. Their casualties were horrific, but their ranks immediately refilled. Informed by never-before-seen documents, letters, photographs, and other artifacts from Sherwood Rangers' families—an ongoing fraternity—and by his own deep knowledge of the war, Holland offers a uniquely intimate portrait of the war at ground level, introducing heretofore unknowns such as the Commanding Officer Stanley Christopherson, the squadron commander John Semken, Sergeant George Dring, and other memorable characters who helped the regiment become the single unit with the most battle honors of any ever in the British army. He weaves the Sherwood Rangers' exploits into the larger narrative and strategy of the war, and also brings fresh analysis to the tactics used. Following the Sherwood Rangers' brutal journey over the dramatic eleven months between D-Day and V-E Day, Holland presents a vivid and original perspective on the endgame of WWII in Europe. 1944 GOLD BEACH

Kate Adie introduces stories from Ukraine, Chile, Indonesia, and France.Ukraine's audacious drone raid on Russian airbases was met with disbelief that such an attack was even possible. Operation ‘Spider's Web' was 18 months in the planning, and caused huge damage to Russia's bomber fleet. But as Paul Adams discovered, civilians in Kyiv are uneasy about celebrating this success, fearful of how Russia might respond.Approximately one fifth of Ukraine is currently under Russian occupation. Russia doesn't allow foreign journalists to enter the occupied territories, but the BBC's Olga Malchevska has been corresponding in secret with Ukrainian civilians in Crimea, through which she learned of the risks they face for small acts of resistance.During the rule of Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet in the 70s and 80s, thousands of babies were illegally kidnapped and adopted by couples abroad. Today, many of Chile's ‘stolen children' are in a race against time to trace their aging mothers. Jane Chambers was there as one mother and daughter reunited.The coral reefs of Raja Ampat in Indonesia are among the most beautiful on Earth, but last year suffered a mass bleaching event which left reefs in some regions resembling white desert plains.

Today marks the 81st anniversary of D-Day–the Allies landing on the beaches of Normandy to liberate Europe from fascism. As we remember the heroes, we salute the Nazi hunters of then and now. Our resistance lives on. This week, just like early June 1944, was a great week for the resistance. Welcome to the second Gaslit Nation block party of the week. Ukraine launched a stealth campaign, destroying 34% of Russia's warplanes with cheap drones and sheer ingenuity. Meanwhile, in the U.S., the MAGA death cult is imploding. Steve Bannon just declared war on Elon Musk and called for him to be deported, Trump wants to gut Musk's government contracts and Bannon claims an executive order is being drafted to seize SpaceX, and MAGA influencers are melting down. It's an oligarch "Lord of the Flies." Welcome to the second Gaslit Nation block party of the week. We end on a high note featuring advice from Constitutional law scholar Leah Litman of the Strict Scrutiny podcast and author of Lawless: How the Supreme Court Runs on Conservative Grievance, Fringe Theories, and Bad Vibes.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- On Thursday, President Donald Trump welcomed German Chancellor Friedrich Merz to the White House. While taking questions from the press, Trump was asked about Elon Musk's public criticisms of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Trump accused Musk of suffering from “Trump derangement syndrome”—explaining: “He's not the first. People leave my administration and they love us and then, at some point, they miss it so badly. Some of them embrace it and some of them actually become hostile.” Musk responded in a series of vitriolic social media posts which included suggestions of impeachment, the threat of creating a new political party, and accusing Trump of being in the Epstein files. 3:20pm- While publicly feuding with President Trump over the proposed Republican tax and budget bill, Elon Musk posted to X: “Time to drop the really big bomb: Donald Trump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!” Rich notes that prior to this specific post, reconciliation between the two billionaires was still possible. But with these explosive allegations, any chance of friendship is now likely off the table. 3:40pm- Remembering D-Day, June 6th, 1944: On Friday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth commemorated the 81st anniversary of the Allied invasion of Nazi-occupied Normandy, France. While speaking from the Normandy American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer, Hegseth proclaimed: “Hitler thought his Atlantic wall was impenetrable. He clearly had not met enough Americans.”
The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:05pm- During a press conference on Friday, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that Kilmar Abrego Garcia has been returned to the United States from El Salvador and will now face federal criminal charges: conspiracy to unlawfully transport illegal aliens for financial gain and unlawful transportation of illegal aliens for financial gain. 4:15pm- In recently released audio, Kilmar Abrego Garcia's wife can be heard providing an explanation for the second protective order she filed against him in 2020. In the one-minute clip, Jennifer Vasquez claims that Abrego Garcia physically abused her on several occasions and even threatened to kill her. Video of a traffic stop has also been made public which may show Abrego Garcia involved in human trafficking. According to Fox News, the Biden Administration's FBI decided not to investigate—and he was immediately released by police. Abrego Garcia, a citizen of El Salvador, had been residing in the United States illegally before being deported by the Trump Administration. 4:30pm- Dr. Victoria Coates— Former Deputy National Security Advisor & the Vice President of the Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss news of the day and commemorate the 81st anniversary of D-Day.

While speaking from the Normandy American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer, Hegseth proclaimed: “Hitler thought his Atlantic wall was impenetrable. He clearly had not met enough Americans.” 6:30pm- On the 40th anniversary of D-Day, President Ronald Reagan delivered one of his most famous speeches at the cliffs of Pointe du Hoc in Normandy, France—the site where U.S. soldiers scaled 100-foot cliffs while being constantly exposed to heavy Nazi gunfire. Their objective: neutralize artillery threatening Allied landings at Omaha and Utah beaches. Surrounded by World War II veterans, Reagan famously stated: “These are the boys of Pointe du Hoc. These are the men who took the cliffs...You were young the day you took these cliffs; some of you were hardly more than boys, with the deepest joys of life before you. Yet you risked everything here.”

Emmanuel Straschnov grew up in rural France, which is interestingly enough where he started doing computer stuff (he mentioned there wasn't much else to do in the 90's). He grew up sailing, as he lived next to the shore in Normandy. He never really thought he would end up coding, but after obtaining his MBA, he ended up doing just that. Outside of tech, he is married with 2 children. He mentions that most of his hobby time is devoted to them, but on occasion, he likes to travel, continue sailing, and to sing.Many years ago, Emmanuel noticed that there were a lot of people searching for technical founders, and using services to find technical founders. He thought this to be wrong, as many people have product ideas and just need a product to help them build it... so, he created something just for them.This is the creation story of Bubble.SponsorsPaddle.comSema SoftwarePropelAuthLinkshttps://bubble.io/https://www.linkedin.com/in/straschnov/Our Sponsors:* Check out Kinsta: https://kinsta.com* Check out Vanta: https://vanta.com/CODESTORYSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Peter Doherty sits down with Simon and Brian to talk about his latest solo record, Felt Better Alive. From tales of rural French life to reflections on identity and memory, the ex-Libertines and Babyshambles figurehead discusses the balance of humour and melancholy in his work and the playful storytelling woven throughout his songs.
How do you catch an enemy's submarine … and then make it vanish? That's what the U.S. Navy's elusive Tenth Fleet planned, as it tracked down Germany's U-505 submarine. The mission came right before the Allies ran ashore on the beaches of Normandy in World War II. Historian Alexander Rose draws on long classified documents and intercepted transmissions to reveal the bold, salt-soaked heist. Alex's new book, Phantom Fleet: The Hunt for Nazi Submarine U-505 and World War II's Most Daring Heist is available now.

6/8: The Light of Battle: Eisenhower, D-Day, and the Birth of the American Superpower by Michel Paradis (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Light-Battle-Eisenhower-American-Superpower/dp/0358682371/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= On June 6, 1944, General Dwight Eisenhower addressed the thousands of American troops preparing to invade Normandy, exhorting them to embrace the “Great Crusade” they faced. Then, in a fleeting moment alone, he drafted a resignation letter in case the invasion failed. In The Light of Battle, Michel Paradis, acclaimed author of Last Mission to Tokyo, paints a vivid portrait of Dwight Eisenhower as he learns to navigate the crosscurrents of diplomacy, politics, strategy, family, and fame with the fate of the free world hanging in the balance. In a world of giants—Churchill, Roosevelt, De Gaulle, Marshall, MacArthur—it was a barefoot boy from Abilene, Kansas, who would master the art of power and become a modern-day George Washington. Drawing upon meticulous research and a voluminous body of newly discovered records, letters, diaries, and firsthand accounts from three continents, Paradis brings Eisenhower to life, as a complicated man who craved simplicity, a genial cipher whose smile was a lethal political weapon. With a page-turning pace and an eye for the overlooked, Paradis interweaves the grand arc of history with more human concerns, bringing readers into the private moments that led to Eisenhower's most pivotal decisions. By deftly integrating the personal and the political, he reveals how Eisenhower's rise both reflected and was integral to America's rise as a global superpower. An unflinching look at how character is forged, and leadership is learned, The Light of Battle breathes new life into the man who made “the leader of the free world” the mantle of the American presidency.

This Memorial Day we take a moment to remember the 350,000+ American women who served in uniform during the war, in every service branch, in every combat theater, and in nearly two-thirds of the available military occupations at the time. Their service ranged from critical support roles flying planes across the country, drawing maps to help men get through Normandy, codebreaking, and building & maintaining the behind-the-scenes infrastructural work that made the heroics possible. Sharon is joined by CIA military analyst, WWII expert, and debut author, Lena Andrews, to unveil the scale and scope of what women in uniform contributed during WWII.
