In this episode, Asim and Amrita are joined by Top Friend Beth to revisit One 2 Ka 4 — a very specific kind of early-2000s Shah Rukh Khan film. We talk reckless SRK somersaults, Juhi being the only one doing any emotional labour, bowling-alley villain lairs, AR Rahman's most “Lamborghini in a field” soundtrack, and the eternal confusion of why anyone thought this script worked. Expect the usual Khandaan mix of nostalgia, masala diagnostics, film-history gossip, and way too much discussion about 90s holsters. 00:00 – Where is Sujoy?

On this week's episode of the The Work Hates Podcast we are joined by Comedian, Bulldog's fan and Royal enthusiast (honestly I have no idea what Brett is thinking when he comes up with these intros) Danny McGinlay.

This week on ‘Work Hates' we talk to internationally acclaimed DJ Gabrielle who is not only a brilliant musician, but also a social worker who changes kids' lives. She is toxically optimistic (self-described), so this may very well be the first uplifting episode we have ever done. We loved hearing about Gabe's experiences with blending both of her passions to create an artistic outlet for disenfranchised youths almost as much as we loved her story of giving Bron a dental dam almost 20 years ago. We loved this yarn with DJ Gabrielle, and you will too.

On this week's episode of the The Work Hates Podcast we are joined by Comedian, Writer…Do I really need to do this for Pete? You already know who he is. If you have watched TV, or listened to the radio, read a book or seen anything funny in Australia in the last 20 years then it is probably related to Pete Hellair. Peter is back (not that he ever left) with a brand new tax write of scheme/Podcast, “Make Me Good At Golf”. Brett and Bron have both been on the road doing gigs and filming super secret shows so their catch ups happen during the podcast!

If you don't recognise Adam from his face (like Bron) you will know Adam from his jokes being on almost every TV show in Australia for the past 10 years. Rozie tells us about the gigs he did in an active War Zone and Bron did a gig in what felt like a war zone. Rozie and Brett get distracted and bore Bron with facts about early 1980 Australian Cars from their childhood and Bron tells us about the time she went bungee jumping as a depressed teenager with no friends. I guess some things never change.

During the critical interwar years, Belgium found itself walking a diplomatic tightrope—maintaining neutrality while neighbouring Germany rapidly rearmed. Faced with the growing threat of conflict, the country was forced to modernise its defences. One of Belgium's key military developments during this period was the T-13 tank destroyer—an armoured vehicle that, although modest by international standards, played a vital role in the country's attempt to resist the German invasion in 1940. In this episode, we head to Brussels to uncover the story of the T-13 with Robby Houben from the Belgian Royal Military Museum.   Patreonpatreon.com/ww2podcast

This is a podcast where we try and persuade or entertain, inspire, and basically inform ourselves and you through conversation.Paula, a listener from Norfolk, England asks the first question for Stuart and William to mull over. It's a long question so we have put it in a separate document:Paula's QuestionStuart and William kick things off with a spirited debate on why folks are moving in the first place. Stuart suggests it might be because of the perception that the UK offers more than other safe countries. William chimes in with something more fundamental - English is a widely spoken language (plus, who doesn't love tea and crumpets?).William then points to the right-wing rhetoric that claims people coming to the UK are just here to drain resources like an uninvited guest who eats all your snacks and leaves the toilet seat up.Stuart goes on to talk about how the states these people pass through could act like a human sponge, absorbing everyone in transit (although that sounds like a superhero gone wrong). France wants the UK to do its part but Stuart wonders if France is pulling its weight.Stuart feels we need to get practicing at absorbing and channeling migration. Let's see this as a practice run for what's to come. Practice makes perfect, right?William points out that France has taken in more migrants than the UK and highlights the lack of legal routes for asylum seekers to enter the country. He believes the real issue isn't that they're all coming here but rather that it's the only route they can take, leaving them at the mercy of gangs (like a bad road trip with a shady GPS).William explains the difference between an asylum seeker and an illegal immigrant and says the issue of small boats crossing the Channel has been blown out of proportion. The number of people crossing the Channel in a year could fit into a football stadium.Stuart's action plan? Spend a bit of time thinking about this openly and remember, the media from all angles is trying to convince you of their way of thinking. Just like those salesmen who insist you need a vacuum that also makes smoothies.Samantha, another listener, this time from Cumbria, England puts forward the second question: “Is there always an alternative explanation?”Stuart kicks things off with, there's always an alternative. It doesn't mean it's correct, but hey, it's like trying on funky hats—worth exploring! Because stepping outside our perspective is like upgrading from fuzzy logic to sharp clarity.Stuart then explores the barriers to accepting alternative explanations. It could be ego or the fear of being wrong, or maybe just the dread of finding out pineapple does belong on pizza.William's action plan? Check out other sources. It's like a treasure hunt, except the treasure is the truth and not a dusty old map.Stuart recommends reading a Maeve Binchy book. She writes from the perspective of people's shared challenges. Think of it as a literary group therapy session with a dash of charm.What do you make of this discussion? Do you have a question that you'd like us to discuss?

I recently attended the We Have Ways Fest, where I ran into Séan Scullion, a friend of the podcast. You might remember him from episode 135, where we discussed Spaniards in the British army. His book, "Churchill's Spaniards," is about to be released. At this year's We Have Ways Fest, Sean was scheduled to speak about the British Middle East Commandos. We found a supposedly quiet corner to chat, though it turned out to be less quiet than anticipated. Patreonpatreon.com/ww2podcast  

It was only as Harry S. Truman was sworn in as the 33rd president of the United States that he was told of the Manhattan Project. In this episode, we embark on a journey through one of the most controversial and consequential decisions in modern history: Truman's choice to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II. The story of this decision is complex, marked by intense debates, ethical dilemmas, and immense geopolitical stakes. As the war in Europe concluded with the defeat of Nazi Germany, the Pacific Theater continued to rage with brutal intensity. American forces faced fierce resistance from Japanese troops, and the prospect of a prolonged and bloody invasion of Japan loomed large. In this episode, we'll explore the multifaceted considerations that influenced Truman's decision. We'll examine the military strategies, the political pressures, and the moral questions that weighed on the shoulders of the 33rd President of the United States. I'm joined by Edward Aldrich, the author of The Partnership: George Marshall, Henry Stimson, and the Extraordinary Collaboration That Won World War II.

In this episode of the WW2 podcast, we'll explore the Royal Navy from 1918 to the end of the Second World War and one man's career. Not an officer, but a regular sailor: Herbert Leeder, who chalk up 27 years of service. Following the career of one sailor is an interesting way to view the Royal Navy. It gives us a slightly potted history, but Herbert took part in a number of major actions during the Second World War, and it brings home how one man can be a witness to many great events. I'm joined by James Carter. After working as a volunteer researcher for a local history project during the centenary of the First World War, James was inspired to seek out the history of his own great-grandfather when his mother handed him a four-page summary of Herbert Leeders's career. The outcome of that research is Hearts of Steel, which tracks Herbert's career and the Royal Navy in which he served. Patreonpatreon.com/ww2podcast  

In March 1941, 40,000 Australian and New Zealand troops were rushed to Greece in a desperate attempt to support the Greeks against the looming threat of a German attack. Although the operation was ultimately doomed to fail, the Aussies and Kiwis managed to hold up the German advance long enough to evacuate thousands to Crete, where Hitler then set his sights. Joining me today is Craig Collie, author of ‘Where the Flaming Hell Are We? The Story of Young Australians and New Zealanders Fighting the Nazis in Greece and Crete'. We'll be delving into these often-overlooked, disastrous operations in the Mediterranean. I want to extend a big thank you to David Phillipson from the History Guild, who suggested our guest today and connected me with Craig. The History Guild has a project focusing on Australians in the Mediterranean theatre during WWII. For more articles and posts on this topic, visit historyguild.org.   Patreonpatreon.com/ww2podcast  

In this episode, we discuss the development of US tanks from the end of the First World War through to the end of the Second World War. I am joined by renowned historian and author Stephen J. Zaloga, who has penned numerous works on military technology and history, and his latest book is 'US Battle Tanks 1917–1945'. It is a comprehensive and richly illustrated examination of the development and combat performance of US battle tanks; Stephen delves into the history of tanks in American service, tracing their journey from the initial experiments with armoured vehicles in the early 20th century through the significant battles and innovations up to the end of World War II.

Just two days before D-Day, Captain Gallery's US antisubmarine Task Group 22.3 managed to force the German U-boat U-505 to the surface. In a bold move, a boarding party secured the submarine before it could be scuttled, capturing an Enigma machine and the current Kriegsmarine code books. This remarkable operation earned Lieutenant Albert David the Medal of Honor for his leadership. However, it could have had catastrophic consequences. If the Germans had suspected that their cyphers were compromised, it might have jeopardised the Allied operation Ultra, which was already deciphering German signals. The Chief of US Naval Operations, Ernest King, was so incensed about the capture of U-505 that he threatened to fire Admiral Gallery. Joining me to discuss this operation is Charles Lachman, author of Codename Nemo: The Hunt for a Nazi U-Boat and the Elusive Enigma Machine.

To commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day, I attended a special event at the Green Howards Museum. We started at the regimental war memorial in Richmond (Yorkshire) at 6.30 a.m., which was when the Green Howards landed on Gold Beach. The day was packed with discussion about the regiment and their role on D-Day. It closed with us having the privilege of getting up close to the only Victoria Cross, which was won on June 6th.  If you find yourself in the Yorkshire Dales, visit the museum; it is a cracking afternoon out. To round off my look at D-Day, I'm joined by Steve Erskine from the Green Howards Museum and Paul Cheall (from The Fighting Through Podcast), whose father landed on Gold Beach with Stan Hollis, who received the Victoria Cross for his deed that day. In theory, we sat down in the museum on June 5th to discuss what D-Day meant to us. In practice, we had a rather wide-ranging discussion. We never got as far off the beaches as we anticipated… I hope you find our war waffle interesting. Patreonpatreon.com/ww2podcast  

More than 132,000 Allied troops landed on the Normandy beaches on 6 June 1944. Through their efforts, the tide of the war turned for the final time to favour the Allies. But how did the Allied army get to the shores of Normandy? The contribution of Landing Craft to D-Day is often overlooked. Andrew Whitmarsh joins me to correct this oversight. Andrew has worked as a curator in military history museums for over 25 years, latterly as the curator of The D-Day Story in Portsmouth. Outside of work, he is also the author of D-Day Landing Craft: How 4,126 ‘Ugly and Unorthodox' Allied Craft made the Normandy Landings Possible. Patreonpatreon.com/ww2podcast  

6th June 1944 saw the largest seaborne assault in human history: D-Day. While much has been written about the operation as a whole, little detailed attention has been paid to the battle for Sword Beach itself, the easternmost of the amphibious attack areas. For this episode, I am joined by Stephen Fisher. Stephen is a historian and archaeologist who specializes in military history. He is also the author of Sword Beach: The Untold Story of D-Day's Forgotten Victory. Patreonpatreon.com/ww2podcast  

As the Allied forces prepared for the monumental invasion of Normandy, concealing the massive build-up of troops in Britain from the Germans became increasingly challenging. To mislead German intelligence about the timing and location of the invasion, the Allies devised a series of elaborate deception plans. The most audacious of these schemes aimed to convince the Germans that the Normandy landings were merely a diversion. This ruse featured a fictitious army led by General Patton, complete with hundreds of realistic dummy landing crafts, tanks, and aircraft. Joining me to delve into the intricate web of D-Day deception is Taylor Downing, author of The Army That Never Was: D-Day and the Great Deception.   Patreonpatreon.com/ww2podcast  

On the morning of May 20, 1941, the Germans launched Operation Mercury. The invasion of Crete was the largest airborne operation yet attempted during the war, with thousands of Fallschirmjäger deployed. Key to the operation's success would be the capture of the airfield at Maleme. Outnumbered and having suffered horrendous casualties, when the airborne troops secured Hill 107, overlooking the airfield, it opened the door for reinforcements and, ultimately, the Allied withdrawal from the island. For this episode, I'm joined by Robert Kershaw, a now-regular show participant who was last with us to discuss Dunkirk. He has a new book available, The Hill: The Brutal Fight for Hill 107 in the Battle of Crete. Patreonpatreon.com/ww2podcast  

In this podcast episode, we will discuss the different approaches to command and control of the British Army and the German Army. From a management point of view, both organisations developed different doctrines to deal with the 'fog of war' or 'friction', which affected how commanders responded as a battle unfolded. We'll do this by delving into the origins of each nation's different approaches to doctrine and training and, most importantly, how these strategies played out during the pivotal Battle for France in 1940. Joining me today is Martin Samuels. Martin is the author of Piercing the Fog of War: The Theory and Practice of Command in the British and German Armies, 1918-1940, which builds upon his early work Command or Control? Command, Training and Tactics in the British and German Armies, 1888-1918. Patreonpatreon.com/ww2podcast  

The Indian Army was the largest volunteer army during the Second World War. Indian Army divisions fought in the Middle East, North Africa and Italy - and went to make up the overwhelming majority of the troops in South East Asia. Over two million personnel served in the Indian Army. I'm Angus Wallace, and in this episode, I am joined by Dr Alan Jefferys to discuss how the Indian Army developed a more comprehensive training structure than any other Commonwealth country during WWII. This was achieved through both the dissemination of doctrine and the professionalism of a small cadre of Indian Army officers who brought about a military culture within the Indian Army - starting in the 1930s - that came to fruition during the Second World War.
