On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, there's an enemy within the United States - Congressional Democrats, Marxists, Islamists, and figures like Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Steve Bannon, and others. They are undermining a spectacular, ongoing military peace mission, Operation Epic Fury, against an Islamist Nazi regime in Iran. The operation has achieved rapid success in just five days, including the death of Khomeini, destruction of Iran's leadership, air force, and navy, and the elimination of a key figure who plotted an assassination attempt against President Trump. Also, the truth about war powers - no president, of either party, has accepted the constitutionality of the 1973 War Powers Act.  The Supreme Court has never ruled on the Act's constitutionality and likely never will.  The first draft of the Constitution provided that Congress would have the power to make war. The delegates at the Constitutional Convention rejected that language and changed it to declare war. To declare war does not result in making war. The only power Congress has to prevent a military operation is the power of the purse.  Other than the vice president, the president is the only federal official elected by the entirety of the people.  In addition to the institutional impossibility of war powers and decisions in the hands of a multi-member body like Congress, the president is the only official who was elected to, among other things, serve as commander-in-chief. Later, Israel's Ambassador to the United Nations calls in and describes the ongoing operation against Iran as progressing positively, with Israel and the US achieving near-complete air superiority over Iranian skies, enabling them to neutralize threats effectively.  Iran's regional attacks and desperation have backfired, uniting moderate Arab countries in strong opposition to Iran, as seen in recent Security Council sessions.  Afterward, after Pearl Harbor, the isolationist movement quickly dissolved, with figures like Charles Lindbergh shifting to support the war effort. In contrast, today's group of Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson and their ilk, refuse to unite behind Trump, the military during the ongoing military campaign. They act like propagandists for the enemy, providing aid and comfort. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

David Annandale and I walk back down Poverty Row just after the attack on Pearl Harbor to watch one of the most confusing and strange attempts at wartime propaganda a low budget studio could produce. BLACK DRAGONS (1942) has Bela Lugosi as a mysterious, menacing man who seems to be on a mission of revenge. But what does he have to do with the corpses that keep popping up on the steps of the Japanese embassy in Washington? Will FBI agent Clayton Moore be able to figure things out or will he spend his time chasing Joan Barclay around her uncle/father's house until all the characters are dead? And how does David find a way to link Christopher Nolan and Bela Lugosi? Listen and learn! BLACK DRAGONS is probably the oddest of the nine films Lugosi made for Poverty Row film producers and certainly the one with the most unintentionally funny dialog. Just as it was about to go into production the decision was made to shoehorn in topical plot elements ripped from the headlines. This means that the original reason behind events in the script has been lost leaving bits of their probable supernatural nature flapping around in the film. This is the only explanation I can imagine for the never addressed ability of Lugosi's Monsieur Colomb to seemingly teleport in and out of moving taxicabs! But David has an interesting take on the film as a bizarre treatise on the subject of ‘acting' both onscreen and within the structure of the story. His idea is a bold way to look at the picture as a whole and certainly makes it more entertaining as you try to figure out what the hell is happening at any point in the film's hourlong running time. Rarely has such a barely planned collection of quirks and gaffs been so mesmerizing! If you have any comments about this movie or any other film we've covered on the show thebloodypit@gmail.com is the place to send them. Thank you for listening and we'll be back soon.

Bob Boeke was 16 years old when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor in December 1941. Nearly two years later, he enlisted in the U.S. Army as part of a program to help get a college education and become an officer. But the program soon closed down. After basic training, Boeke was assigned to an intelligence and reconnaissance unit within the 86th Infantry Division.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Boeke tells us about intelligence and reconnaissance training, finding and removing German mines on the Normandy beaches, dealing with German mortar fire on the way to the front, and what he experienced after getting to the front lines.Boeke also shares how he and other recon soldiers scouted out whether the Germans had evacuated the villages they came to or whether they had retreated, how he got across the Rhine, and horrors he witnessed at Dachau. You'll also find out how Boeke ended up in the Pacific at the end of the war.Finally, we'll learn how the 75th anniversary of D-Day helped to reunite Boeke with the girlfriend he had to leave in the 1940's and how they tied the knot all these years later.

fWotD Episode 3225: Montana-class battleship Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 4 March 2026, is Montana-class battleship.The Montana class was a planned set of battleships for the United States Navy. Intended as the successor to the Iowa class, the Montanas were to be slower but larger, better armored, and better armed. Five ships were approved for construction during World War II, but changes in wartime building priorities resulted in their cancellation in favor of continuing production of Essex-class aircraft carriers and Iowa-class battleships.Armament would have been twelve 16-inch (406 mm) Mark 7 guns in four 3-gun turrets, up from the nine Mark 7 guns in three turrets used by the Iowa class. Unlike the three preceding classes of battleships, the Montana class was designed without any restrictions from treaty limitations. With increased anti-aircraft capability and substantially thicker armor in all areas, the Montanas would have been the largest, best-protected, and most heavily armed US battleships ever, and the only ones to rival Japan's Yamato-class battleships in terms of displacement.Preliminary design work for the Montana class began before the US entry into World War II. The first two vessels were approved by Congress in 1939 following the passage of the Naval Act of 1938. The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor delayed the construction of the Montana class. The success of carrier combat at the Battle of the Coral Sea, and to a greater extent the Battle of Midway, diminished the perceived value of the battleship. Consequently, the US Navy first delayed, and later cancelled, the Montana class in favor of more urgently needed aircraft carriers as well as amphibious and anti-submarine vessels.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 03:05 UTC on Wednesday, 4 March 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Montana-class battleship on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Salli.

In 1942, on the heels of the Pearl Harbor attack as the US entered the war, Canada and the U.S. agreed to form a special top-secret military commando unit – nicknamed by the Nazis as “The Black Devils” for their stealth, bravery and skill. Designed to work as a nimble, highly conditioned unit of ‘super-fighters' with special skills, selected servicemen from the two nation's forces became one and trained for eight-and-a-half months in Helena, Montana before being shipped overseas to Europe.Bill Woon's dad, Dave Woon, was a Canadian national who was recruited to the unit. Dave ultimately married a Montana girl, and raised his family there, and never discussed the details of his adventures with his son. Bill relates the history of the group, trained initially for cold-weather fighting in Norway, but ultimately deployed in Italy where they knocked the German mountain stronghold of  of Monte La Difensa and  held a key strategic position during the Battle of Anzio, before being deployed to France and Germany. Bill later worked to get his dad's unit a special gold Congressional Medal in 2005. Notably, the First Special Service set the paradigm for the Green Berets and other tier-one fighting gro The FSSF Service originally recruited about 1800 soldiers, won all 22 battles they engaged, had a casualty rate of 134%, and captured over 30,000 enemy soldiers.Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

Pearl Harbor is often remembered as a stunning Japanese success, a perfectly executed surprise attack that changed the course of the Second World War. But what if that familiar story is wrong? In this episode, I am joined by now regular of the podcast Mark Stille to rethink one of the most famous events of the war. His book Pearl Harbor: Japan's Greatest Disaster argues that the attack was not a masterstroke at all, but a tactical disappointment, an operational failure, and ultimately a strategic catastrophe for Japan. Mark's book is also available on Audible and Spotify.   patreon.com/ww2podcast  

Dale and Christophe discuss the February 1942 Battle of Badung ("Bong/Barong") Strait in the Netherlands East Indies, framing it within Japan's rapid early-Pacific-War offensives after Pearl Harbor and the sinking of HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse, and Japan's drive to seize oil and strategic airfields. They explain ABDA Command under Dutch Rear Admiral Karel Doorman as a multinational, unevenly coordinated force facing Japanese air superiority, refined night-fighting doctrine, and Type 93 “Long Lance” torpedoes. Japan lands troops from the 48th Infantry Division on Bali on February 19 and moves to secure Denpasar airfield, prompting Allied surface counterattacks in confined waters. U.S. Clemson-class destroyers fire torpedoes without confirmed hits and withdraw; Dutch cruisers De Ruyter and Java with destroyers fight Japanese escorts, suffer damage, evade torpedoes, and also withdraw, leaving Bali secured and foreshadowing the Battle of the Java Sea. The episode closes honoring Medal of Honor recipient PFC Charles N. DeGlopper (killed June 9, 1944, near La Fière, France).

In Episode 156 of Spellbreakers, Matt Trump explores a chilling and deeply layered question: was a short-lived Fox reality series, Murder in Small Town X, more than entertainment? Matt walks through the timeline of the show's July–September 2001 run, its eerie Maine setting, and the shocking fact that its winner, New York firefighter Angel Huarbe Jr., died on 9/11 just one week after the finale aired. Drawing from the 9/11 Commission Report and contemporary media footage, Matt connects Portland and Eastport, Maine, the hijackers' unexplained overnight stay, and the show's fire, secret society, and Pearl Harbor revenge narrative. He also revisits the Lone Gunmen episode, predictive programming, and the concept of “comms” — the idea that media events may serve as logistical signals to siloed operational teams. Is it coincidence, psychological priming, or something more deliberate? Matt doesn't claim definitive answers, but he lays out the patterns and lets the audience weigh the implications.

"Before we're through with them, the Japanese language will be spoken only in hell." –  Admiral William F. “Bull” Halsey upon seeing the aftermath of the attack on Pearl Harbor. In 1958, US Admiral Chester W. Nimitz wrote a controversial article titled “Our Good Luck at Pearl Harbor.”  It was a surprising revelation that prompted Nimitz to explain and defend himself for the rest of his life.  To his credit, he remained firm in his conviction and was always willing to explain his reasons.  In this episode, we ask whether or not Nimitz's controversial statement made over 60 years ago is sustainable, given just how destructive the Japanese surprise attack was on December 7, 1941. 

What if your portfolio looks diversified — but isn't? This episode explores the concept of the “Pearl Harbor "portfolio, where hidden concentration risk builds quietly beneath calm market conditions. By stacking exposure in the same tickers, expiration windows, or strategies, traders can unknowingly create a single point of failure.You'll learn how to identify warning signs of fragility, spread risk across time and asset classes, and design strategies that behave differently under stress. Rather than trying to predict the next volatility spike, this episode shows how to prepare for it — before it arrives.See full show notes here

Bill Clinton Testifies In House Epstein Probe After Hillary's Interview Halted, DHS Secretary Noem Exposes Deep State Spying On Trump Officials & Globalists Set Stage For New Pearl Harbor Dragging US Into WWIII

Em dezembro de 1941, logo após o ataque a Pearl Harbor, a Califórnia entra em pânico total acreditando que uma invasão japonesa está prestes a acontecer. Mas em vez de heroísmo disciplinado, o que se vê é uma explosão de caos hilário: militares atrapalhados, civis paranoicos e uma série de trapalhadas que transformam Los Angeles em um verdadeiro circo de guerra.Dirigido por Steven Spielberg, com roteiro de Robert Zemeckis, Bob Gale e John Milius, o filme mistura sátira, slapstick e ação em uma comédia épica que brinca com os medos da época.O elenco é um verdadeiro “dream team” da comédia e da ação dos anos 70:John Belushi como o piloto maluco Capt. Wild Bill KelsoDan Aykroyd como o atrapalhado Sgt. Frank TreeJohn Candy, Treat Williams, Nancy Allen, Robert Stack, Christopher Lee, Toshirō Mifune e muitos outros nomes que dão vida a personagens caricatos e inesquecíveis.Com trilha sonora de John Williams, explosões coreografadas e piadas absurdas, 1941 é uma comédia de guerra que transforma o medo em gargalhadas e mostra que, às vezes, o maior inimigo é a própria confusão.PIX: canalfilmesegames@gmail.comSiga o Filmes e Games:Instagram: filmesegames Facebook: filmesegames Twitter: filmesegamesSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5KfJKthPodcast: https://anchor.fm/fgcastIntro - 0:00Caçando Nove para Um - 3:00O que é "1941: Uma Guerra Muito Louca"? - 4:48Notas dos agregadores - 8:14Tirando o bode da sala - 12:00Cenas incríveis - 43:49Zemeckis e Milius - 53:18Curiosidades - 54:50Oscar - 56:12Bilheteria: Sucesso ou flop? - 56:57Notas do Filmes e Games - 59:18Desafios das Dicas 2.0 - 1:01:51Momento Locadora - 1:04:59Revelação do FGcast #416 - 1:47:12

Have you stopped to consider the number of lies Democrats tell themselves?It's enormous.I don't know how they live themselves, except to say they're scared to leave the cult.Blatant lies.Covid. Vaccine effectiveness. Masks. Etc.Guns. Border policy. 2020 election. 2022 midterms. J6.The strangest thing about the hypothetical was not the shouting. It was the silence.At precisely midnight, something shifted. No executive order. No Supreme Court ruling. No viral hashtag. Just an inexplicable civic condition: every Democrat in America, from city council to Capitol Hill, suddenly lost the ability to lie.Not exaggerate. Not deflect. Not rebrand. Lie.By sunrise, the cable news studios looked like aquariums after someone forgot to oxygenate the tank. Pundits opened their mouths with the usual choreography, but what came out was unfiltered oxygen. Raw. Bracing. Occasionally fatal to reputations.The first hearings convened before breakfast.A senior Democrat, long fond of describing January 6 as an existential threat on par with Pearl Harbor and 9/11, leaned toward the microphone and admitted that while the riot was disgraceful, the apocalyptic rhetoric proved politically invaluable. It unified a fractured caucus. It redirected scrutiny away from pandemic policy failures. It froze debate. “Most secure election in history,” another repeated, before clarifying that security and public confidence are not synonyms, particularly after states rewrote voting procedures under emergency authority while private actors poured hundreds of millions into local election administration.He even cited the now well documented “Zuckerberg grants,” the $419 million channeled through the Center for Tech and Civic Life, a figure reported widely in 2021 and dissected in state legislatures thereafter. What had once been framed as “philanthropy” was now described, under duress of honesty, as asymmetrical infrastructure. Legal, perhaps. Neutral, not exactly.Then the conversation pivoted to COVID.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We react to the state of the union address and the olympics, bemoaning how it's impossible to feel patriotic in 2026, as well as how cowardly the DNC is in pushing centrists like Gavin Newsom and Kamala Harris for 2028. We also talk about the subpar snow at Milano Cortina and the "conspiracy theory" that Bush did 9/11 as a "new Pearl Harbor", inspired by our lovely comrades at TrueAnon.

Christine Kuehn never knew the full story of her German Grandfather living in Hawaii, until historians started calling, asking her about her family. As it turned out, her Grandfather and Aunt helped the Nazis and Japanese plan the attack on Pearl Harbor, and her story would be unbelievable, if it weren't true!

After Japan's 1941 attack on Pearl Harbour, Japanese Pilot Shigenori Nishikaichi needed a place to conduct an emergency landing. He had been told that the nearby Hawaiian island of Ni'ihau was uninhabited, but that intel was wrong. People did live there, and what's more - the island known as "The Forbidden Isle" has a very interesting history...This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 07:20 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).For all our important links: https://linktr.ee/dogoonpod Check out our other podcasts:Book Cheat: https://play.acast.com/s/book-cheatPrime Mates: https://play.acast.com/s/prime-mates/Listen Now: https://play.acast.com/s/listen-now/Who Knew It with Matt Stewart: https://play.acast.com/s/who-knew-it-with-matt-stewart/Jess Writes A Rom-Com: https://shows.acast.com/jess-writes-a-rom-comOur awesome theme song by Evan Munro-Smith and logo by Peader ThomasDo Go On acknowledges the traditional owners of the land we record on, the Wurundjeri people, in the Kulin nation.

The sermon centers on the transformative power of intentional Christian discipleship, illustrated through the life and legacy of a pivotal figure in the Navigators movement, whose journey began with memorizing Scripture and was shaped by profound spiritual experiences, including the trauma of Pearl Harbor. Key themes include the necessity of spiritual disciplines—prayer, Scripture, witnessing, and a whole-life commitment rooted in Colossians 3:23—embodied in the metaphor of a balanced four-spoke wheel, which emphasizes holistic Christian formation over mere activity. The speaker underscores the importance of personal conviction, the reality of God's presence in crisis, and the enduring impact of faithful leadership that empowers others rather than controlling them. Ultimately, the message calls for a global movement not of institutional size but of widespread, authentic discipleship, where every believer becomes a living testimony of Christ's peace and purpose, grounded in truth, prayer, and selfless service.

By popular demand, the 15-Minute History team is re-airing one of our most popular episodes. This originally aired on April 8th, 2019. New episode next Monday, March 2nd. ____The name “Enterprise” is not exclusive to fictional starships or the space shuttle; in fact, nineteen ships of the British Royal Navy and nine of the United States Navy have born the name (spelled either with an S or a Z). Undoubtedly, the most famous USS Enterprise is the World War Two-era aircraft carrier, which fought in more battles in the Pacific War than any other vessel, earned twenty battle stars, and is today the most decorated ship in American naval history. “The Big E,” (first of her many nicknames) was commissioned in May 1938 and attached to the Atlantic fleet for her first year of service. As tensions rose with Japan and the Navy Department realized the importance of aircraft carriers in the Pacific, the Enterprise was transferred to the Pacific Fleet and based first at San Diego and then at Pearl Harbor.Join us as we teach you about the most decorated ship in the history of the US Navy, the USS Enterprise. We talk about her history, engagements, and why she was called, The Grey Ghost. When it comes to the United States Navy, names carry with them the legends of those ships which came before, and history will surely not forget the name Enterprise.

Wir feiern und wir trauern: Aufgrund MICHAEL BAYs Geburtstag geben sich David und Daniel noch einmal das volle BAYHEM. Von BAD BOYS bis AMBULANCE, von gut bis katastrophal, von laut bis noch lauter. Daher wird es daneben auch um solche Machwerke wie 6 UNDERGROUND, den vom Streik geplagten TRANSFORMERS - DIE RACHE oder den völlig aus dem Ruder laufenden TRANSFORMERS: ÄRA DES UNTERGANGS gehen. Aber eben auch um solch spaßige oder gelungene Action-Unterhaltung wie THE ROCK – FELS DER ENTSCHEIDUNG, um die „Erpresser auf Energydrink“-Satire PAIN & GAIN, den Tatsachen-Angriffs-Thriller 13 HOURS: THE SECRET SOLDIERS OF BENGHAZI oder das vermeintliche Endzeit-Spektakel DIE INSEL, während andere Streifen wie TRANSFORMERS, BAD BOYS 2 oder PEARL HARBOR mal mehr, mal weniger zur Sprache kommen. Aber ja, daneben müssen wir leider auch ein wenig trauern, denn in den letzten Wochen sind doch so einige Menschen von uns gegangen, die gerade für Filmfans oder eben für uns eine gewisse Bedeutung haben oder eine Erwähnung wert sind. Menschen wie James van der Beek (RULES OF ATTRACTION), Tom Noonan (MANHUNTER/ HEAT), Robert Duvall (APOCALYPSE NOW) oder Catherine O'Hara (KEVIN ALLEIN ZU HAUS), denen wir heute auch ein wenig Zeit widmen möchten. Wir hoffen, das geht so in Ordnung und dass Ihr trotzdem eine Menge Freude mit der Folge haben werdet. Bleibt ansonsten so gesund wie gut drauf und habt ein schönes Wochenende.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Dorothea N Buckingham, author of the book Code Name Rascal. Dorothea “Dee” Buckingham is a seasoned author, retired librarian, and dedicated historian who has called Hawaiʻi home for over 30 years. Her profound interest in the daily lives of women during World War II in Hawaiʻi has been the cornerstone of her literary work. Dee's commitment to uncovering and narrating these often-overlooked stories has established her as a respected voice in historical fiction.   Her notable publications include My Name is Loa, a historical novel set on Molokaʻi, and Who Murdered Jane Stanford?: An Answer Imagined, which delves into the mysterious death of Stanford University's co-founder in 1905 Hawaiʻi. Additionally, she co-authored World War II Hawaiʻi with her husband, retired Lieutenant Colonel John Buckingham, offering a pictorial history that captures the transformative impact of the war on the islands.   Dee's passion for storytelling extends beyond writing; she is an Author Accelerator certified book coach, providing guidance to aspiring writers. Her engaging talks and workshops have been featured on west coast radio and television in Hawaiʻi, and she has presented to diverse audiences, sharing her insights on writing and historical research.   Her latest work, Code Name Rascal, continues her mission to illuminate the vital roles women played during wartime, weaving a narrative that is both historically rich and emotionally resonant.   Dee enjoys connecting with readers and is available to meet with book clubs and reading groups, both in person and via Zoom, to discuss her work and share insights into her writing process.   In my book review, I stated Code Name Rascal is a wonderful historical fiction. This story takes place in Hawaii immediately following the attack on Pearl Harbor. We quickly meet four women, all very different from one another, who join a classified radar operation known as WARD, with the code name Rascal.   One of the things I loved best about this story is that I was completely unaware of WARD or even the issues in Hawaii after the initial bombing. I'm not sure where I was during school, but there is a lot more to what happened than I realized! Code Name Rascal helped fill in so many of the blanks.   I also really loved Dorothea's characters. CJ is a strong, newly-married journalist. Ruth is a quiet Navy officer wife. Jane is a pilot going through divorce. And Eve is a Honolulu socialite. Imagine all these women thrust into tiny quarters, working grueling hours, keeping war secrets, and still trying to figure out their own lives. It's like a historical soap opera, full of determination, grief, danger, and disappearing dreams - and it's one you won't want to miss!   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Dorothea N Buckingham Website: https://dorotheabuckingham.com/ Substack: https://dorotheanbuckingham.substack.com/   Purchase Code Name Rascal on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/3LrHJMU Ebook: https://amzn.to/49sTwUx   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

“When do we get a whack at those Germans?” This is the story of America's entry into the European Theater. After Pearl Harbor, American foot soldiers and generals alike are eager to get in on the action in Europe, but first, they have to cross the embattled Atlantic—easier said than done with German U-boats on the prowl, sinking both military and merchant vessels in what they call an “American turkey shoot.” After stubborn U.S. Navy Admiral Ernest King finally adopts a workable convoy system, the boys are on their way to the UK, but it's their next destination that's really hotly debated.  U.S. Chief of Staff George C. Marshall advocates for a direct assault on France in 1942, (a plan supported by a desperate Stalin), but Churchill and co. favor a Mediterranean approach, coming up through the “soft underbelly” of Europe and avoiding turning the English Channel into “a river of blood.” And yet, whatever the high command decides, newly trained American troops will soon arrive in Ireland under the command of Dwight D. “Ike” Eisenhower, an organizationally brilliant and formerly frustrated desk jockey, now commander of all U.S. forces in Europe. ____ Connect with us on HTDSpodcast.com and go deep into episode bibliographies and book recommendations join discussions in our Facebook community get news and discounts from The HTDS Gazette  come see a live show get HTDS merch or become an HTDS premium member for bonus episodes and other perks.

A World War II Story of Nazi Espionage, Betrayal, and the Secret History Behind Pearl Harbor It began with a letter from a screenwriter, asking about a story. Your family. World War II. Nazi spies. Christine Kuehn was shocked and confused. When she asked her seventy-year-old father, Eberhard, what this could possibly be about, he stalled, deflected, demurred, and then wept. He knew this day would come. The Kuehns, a prominent Berlin family, saw the rise of the Nazis as a way out of the hard times that had befallen them. When the daughter of the family, Eberhard's sister, Ruth, met Nazi leader Joseph Goebbels at a party, the two hit it off, and they had an affair. But Ruth had a secret—she was half Jewish—and Goebbels found out. Rather than having Ruth killed, Goebbels instead sent the entire Kuehn family to Hawaii, to work as spies half a world away. There, Ruth and her parents established an intricate spy operation from their home, just a few miles down the road from Pearl Harbor, shielding Eberhard from the truth. They passed secrets to the Japanese, leading to the devastating attack on Pearl Harbor. After Eberhard's father was arrested and tried for his involvement in planning the assault, Eberhard learned the harsh truth about his family and faced a decision that would change the path of the Kuehn family forever. Jumping back and forth between Christine discovering her family's secret and the untold past of the spies in Germany, Japan, and Hawaii, Family of Spies is fast-paced history at its finest and will rewrite the narrative of December 7, 1941.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Dominick Critelli was born in Italy and came to the United States as a child. He was 20 years old when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and launched the U.S. into World War II. Critelli became an airplane mechanic as part of the U.S. Army's 95th infantry Division. In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Critelli tells us what the toughest part of basic training was for him and how his sergeant handled his complaint. He also shares what it was like arriving at Utah Beach not long after D-Day operations and the moment of engineering inspiration that took place that day and likely saved many lives.Critelli then details his role at the Battle of the Bulge, including how he flew over American soldiers, who were surrounded by the Germans, and dropped ammunition, weapons, food, and other supplies to help them hold those positions.Finally, Critelli, who is 104 years old, shares his secrets to longevity and his long love of playing the saxophone. He recently played the national anthem on his soprano sax at a National Hockey League game.

The wars always seem to start on water. From the Lucitania to Pearl Harbor and of course the Gulf of Tonkin incident. As we are distracted, something big is happening in the Middle East that will be nearly impossible to step back from once it begins. Thousands of Iraqis are volunteering to defend Iran against a US attack. Iran is also saying its missile program will never be negotiable in talks with the US. Iran's new ballistic missiles are so fast they can reach Israel in about 10 minutes. This is the kind of headline that is making it more clear than ever that we are on the verge of that scripted war. Israel has an incredible control over US politicians. The Epstein scandal is just one example of how. So, how much are they controlling the situation on the ground in Iran? Israeli and US government officials have both boasted about Mossad controlling the events on the ground with major protests. In fact, Israeli bullets have been found in the bodies of countless Iranian children allegedly killed by the Iranian regime (Khamenei). In this video, we react to Matt Gaetz and Max Blumenthal's discussion on OAN (One American News) about Israel's true control over the Iranian protests and what comes next.

Russell Sattazhan was 15 years old when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and forced the U.S. into World War II. in 1944, he  was drafted and was placed in an infantry replacement unit. Replacements were needed so badly that training was cut short and Sattazhan's unit was sent to Europe and folded into the Army's 1st Infantry Division in January 1945. Two months later, Sattazhan's war would be over after suffering a severe wound from a German attack.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Sattazhan tells us what it was like being rushed into combat, dealing with the brutal winter in early 1945 and pushing the Nazis further and further intoo Germany.He also takes us to the day he was badly wounded in his right hand and part of his wrist after being hit by German fire, the unusual circumstances that helped to save his life, realizing that he needed an amputation, and his road to recovery.

“It was almost unbelievable, but I was seeing it. Almost simultaneously, three [Japanese] carriers were wiped out. I knew what it meant. By golly, we did it!”  This is the story of a battle that changed how wars are fought at sea—and of the thin margin between disaster and destiny. In the spring of 1942, Japanese forces surge across the Pacific, confident their next move will finish what Pearl Harbor began. But beneath the surface, American codebreakers are listening, watching, and waiting. Fresh from the hard-fought Battle of the Coral Sea, the U.S. Navy limps forward with damaged carriers, exhausted pilots, and an untested commander named Chester Nimitz. Across the ocean, Admiral Yamamoto Isoroku sets an intricate trap meant to lure America's carriers into annihilation near a tiny atoll called Midway. What follows is not a clash of battleships, but a duel fought primarily in the air—where minutes matter, mistakes are fatal, and pilots will dive straight into fire with no idea if they're already too late. By the morning of June 4, 1942, both sides believe victory is within reach. Only one is right. ____ Connect with us on HTDSpodcast.com and go deep into episode bibliographies and book recommendations join discussions in our Facebook community get news and discounts from The HTDS Gazette  come see a live show get HTDS merch or become an HTDS premium member for bonus episodes and other perks.

1941. december 7-én a japánok rajtaütésszerű támadást hajtottak végre Pearl Harbor ellen. Ezt követően az amerikai társadalomban fellángolt a japánokkal szembeni ellenszenv, aminek az országban élő japán bevándorlók - közülük sokan az USA-ban született amerikai állampolgárok - lettek áldozatai.  A japán-amerikai lakosok élete rémálommá vált: az FBI civileket tartóztatott le, megszaporodtak a rasszista inzultálások, a sajtóból ömlött a japánellenes propaganda. Mindez azonban csak a kezdet volt: pár hónappal később a japán-amerikai állampolgárokat internálótáborokba zárták. Családok, közösségek szakadtak szét; az emberek elveszítették otthonaikat, vállalkozásaikat - az addig felépített életüket.  Adásunkban az ő sorsukat mutatjuk be; beszélünk az előzményekről, a politikai háttérről, a táborok működéséről és a foglyok életkörülményeiről.  Források: Richard Reeves: Infamy című könyve John E.

Casablanca is a film that Sean and I have wanted to cover for a long time, but there was a little bit of a struggle to find a good film to pair it with. Not because there were so few, but because there were so MANY. Finally we came up with focusing on Humphrey Bogart himself rather than on the overall theme of the film. And then there was the realization that Bogart had a couple of films where he was a reluctant hero in a World War Two setting, with the key word being "reluctant." So we open with Casablanca, from 1942, directed by Michael Curtiz. Hal Wallis got the rights to the play just a few weeks after Pearl Harbor, so it wound up having a much bigger impact than it might have had before we entered the war. In Part Two, we see how Howard Hawks would handle a reluctant hero.

Evidence that history is repeating itself: Franklin Roosevelt's plea in late 1940 to reimagine his nation as an “arsenal of democracy” willing to defy fascism and arm the free world, compared 85 years later to the question of America deterring China's growing military prowess while also reexamining its role in the Caribbean (likewise an FDR obsession prior to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor). Hoover fellows and historians Joseph Ledford and Eyck Freymann discuss their respective fields of expertise (Western Hemisphere for Ledford and China-Taiwan for Freymann), how those two theaters are intertwined (could a crisis in the Indo-Pacific prompt China to create mischief in the Americas?), plus how to read Beijing's ambitions (is Xi Jinping too risk-averse to invade Taiwan?) and Donald Trump's designs on his “backyard” (is Venezuela the beginning or the end of the US engaging in the affairs of its regional neighbors?). Recorded on January 27, 2026.

“You have a good life,” her aunt said. “You don't want to ruin it with the past.”Those words were deeply unsettling to journalist Christine Kuehn. She always suspected there was more to her paternal family history. Her father was kind but evasive, and her aunt flat out refused to discuss it. But no one would talk. Then she got a letter from a screenwriter who asked if her family could be the same Kuehns who spied on Pearl Harbor for the Nazis and shared intel with the Japanese. When she confronted her father, he denied everything. But within an hour, he called back, sobbing, and confessed.So began Kuehn's quest to uncover the truth. It took her and her husband Mark decades to sort through FBI files, letters, historical records and family journals — and even longer for her to absorb and process the fact that her grandparents and aunt were accomplished Nazi spies, largely responsible for the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Her new book, “Family of Spies,” tells her family's shocking history. Turns out, at age 19, Kuehn's aunt Ruth had an affair with Nazi leader Joseph Goebbels. When he learned she was half Jewish, he sent the family to Hawaii — the better to preserve his purity — with a mandate that they spy on the Americans for the Japanese. Kuehn's family obliged and changed the course of history. This week on Big Books and Bold Ideas, Kuehn talks with Kerri Miller about the shame of discovering her family's history and what helped her move beyond it. Guest:Christine Kuehn is a journalist and writer who lives outside of Baltimore, Maryland.

“We had been promised relief but none was coming, and all of us in Bataan shared a sense of betrayal.” This is the story of the United State's earliest—and most disastrous—days of war in the Pacific.  Almost immediately following Pearl Harbor, America and the Axis powers exchange rapid-fire war declarations. While embattled Britain breathes a sign of relief to have the US officially in the war, the Japanese Empire's sun is rising on the Pacific fast—and at great cost to the Philippines. As the Commonwealth's islands fall one by one, General Douglas MacArthur is forced to beat a hasty retreat. He evacuates to Australia and pledges to return; but what of the American and Filipino forces cornered on a small peninsula on Luzon? Well, they're not called the “Battling Bastards of Bataan” for nothing. But there's only so much they can do without outside support. Many thousands of POWs will be murdered or massacred in the post-surrender Bataan Death March of April 1942.  Amid these defeats and the ensuing crisis of morale, Washington concludes a successful counterattack on the Japanese home islands just might be the psychological win that America needs. Lieutenant Colonel James “Jimmy” Doolittle will lead an air attack… on Tokyo itself.  ____ Go to squarespace.com/HTDS for a free trial and use the offer code HTDS to save 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain from our advertising partner Squarespace.

UNORDERED HEROISM AND THE ULTIMATE BLUFF Colleague Admiral James Stavridis. Stavridis recounts the extraordinary heroism of Dorie Miller, a cook at Pearl Harbor who, despite segregation and lack of training, manned a machine gun and saved his captain without orders. The segment concludes with Commander Ernest Evans of the USS Johnston at Leyte Gulf. Facing a massive Japanese fleet with no support, Evans led a suicidal charge to protect the landing force. This bluff convinced the Japanese that a larger American force must be nearby, causing them to retreat and saving the operation through sheer audacity and the sacrifice of the "tin can sailors."

ANATOMY OF AN INTELLIGENCE FAILURE: ARROGANCE AND TECHNOLOGY Colleague Seth Frantzman. This segment analyzes the catastrophic intelligence failure leading to October 7, attributing it to a mix of complacency, arrogance, and groupthink within Israel's defense establishment. Despite warnings from border observers and Unit 8200 possessing Hamas's attack plans a year in advance, officials dismissed the threat, believing Hamas was deterred and incapable of such an operation. Frantzman highlights a critical over-reliance on technology over human intelligence on the ground. The discussion draws parallels to Pearl Harbor and 9/11, noting that Hamas successfully lured Israel into a false sense of security while training in the open.

With the December 1941 surprise attack on the US naval base Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, our story has officially come to the United States' entry into the Second World War. Professor Jackson told that story in episode 194, and in 193 we covered the long buildup to the war with Japan; yet, the attack on Pearl Harbor is one of those moments of history where the depths of inquiry and knowledge to be gained is almost endless. There is still more to learn.  To that end, Prof. Greg Jackson welcomes Professor Lindsey Cormack, an associate professor of political science at Stevens Institute of Technology, and Steve Twomey, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist and author of Countdown to Pearl Harbor: The Twelve Days to the Attack.  Also, Prof. Jackson officially announces his new book, Been There Done That: How Our History Shows What We Can Overcome. In the book, Prof. Jackson proves that while today's political climate may be dark, these aren't as unprecedented times as we may think. Now available for pre-order.

PEARL HARBOR AND LINDBERGH'S BLOCKED MILITARY SERVICE Colleague H.W. Brands. H.W. Brandsrecounts the immediate aftermath of the Pearl Harbor attack. The Japanese strike and Hitler's subsequent declaration of war united the European and Asian theaters, resolving FDR's political dilemmas. Lindbergh attempted to volunteer for the Army Air Corps but was blocked by the Roosevelt administration due to his pre-war criticism. Consequently, he served as a civilian consultant, eventually flying unauthorized combat missions against the Japanese in the Pacific. NUMBER 8
