Our interviews from St. Louis ASL continue in this very episode! First man up is Dave Pope, a fascinating individual who has developed some scenarios and is working on a project to demystify the Advanced Squad Leader rules.

Contact us if you are interested in joining! Second interview is Rich Domovich, who gives us an update on his ASL adventures. He attends several international tournaments every year. Amazing!

Britain's terrifying Cold War survival plans were far more serious than imagined.Was Cold War civil defence genuinely useful — or simply political theatre designed to comfort a frightened population? In this explosive episode of History Rage, emergency planning historian Dr. Nathan Hazlehurst dismantles decades of myths surrounding Britain's nuclear preparedness.From Protect and Survive and regional nuclear bunkers to the grim realism of Threads and When the Wind Blows, Nathan reveals the astonishing scale of Britain's plans for surviving nuclear war. Far from being laughable, civil defence involved thousands of volunteers, detailed “war books” in every council area, emergency food distribution plans, evacuation schemes, and preparations for maintaining government after atomic attack.Nathan explains how the UK expected local authorities to become wartime rulers, why police would have received sweeping emergency powers, and how Britain planned to preserve society in the aftermath of nuclear devastation. The discussion also explores the cultural legacy of civil defence, including the influence of Yes Minister, Dad's Army, and the BBC's banned 1965 nuclear drama The War Game.You'll hear why the famous Protect and Survive booklet may actually contain surprisingly sensible resilience advice — much of which Scandinavian countries still issue to citizens today.This episode explores:The real purpose behind Britain's Cold War civil defence networkWhy local councils maintained secret nuclear war booksHow Threads accurately portrayed nuclear emergency planningThe role of the Civil Defence Corps and Green Goddess fire enginesBritain's regional seats of government and continuity plansWhy nuclear-free zones clashed with central governmentHow Cold War resilience planning still shapes emergency response todayGuest DetailsDr. Nathan Hazlehurst is an emergency preparedness practitioner and contemporary historian specialising in British civil defence and Cold War emergency planning. He is currently developing his doctoral research into a forthcoming book exploring the history and legacy of UK civil defence.Follow Nathan on X/Twitter:https://x.com/n_rh1992Recommended EpisodesEpisode 43 – Lucy Siebert rages that Protect and Survive isn't really that badEpisode 205 – Nathan Hazlehurst rages there's more to wartime defence than “putting bloody lights out”Follow and support History Rage:Website: https://historyrage.comPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/historyrageTwitter/X: https://x.com/historyrageFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/historyrageInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/historyrageSupport the podcast on Patreon for early ad-free episodes, monthly live streams, bonus content, and the legendary History Rage mug.If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, share the episode online, and help more people discover the rage.

Then, Matthew, the offical SOTA Ukraine Correspondent, joins the show to talk about how drones are evolving, how Ukraine's drone fleet absolutely smoked the U.S. Army in a recent war game, and what the deteriorating situation inside Russia means for the future of the war.

EPISODE 168 | Eating the Onions: War of the Worlds & Other Scares In an environment of experimental fiction, metanarratives, postmodern satire, disinformation, deep fakes, and fake news, a sizeable portion of the content gobbling audience takes things that are not true as being actually true. Online, this happens with alarming regularity with articles published by satirical news site The Onion; so often, in fact, that there's a term for this phenomenon – it's called Eating the Onion. The subjects of intentional disinformation, deep fakes, and fake news are one thing, but what we're looking at here at times when something that was never intended to be taken seriously (though it used real world tropes and structures for narrative effect), were accidentally thought to be base din reality. And people quite rather lost their shit. Like the 1938 Orson Welles broadcast of The War of the Worlds. But there are other instances as well. Review us here or on IMDb.

Marc Cox took the day off — but the Marc Cox Morning Show never sleeps. Dan Buck and Kim St. Onge delivered four hours of news, truth, and conservative fire that the mainstream media won't touch. A historic Iran peace deal is on the brink of being signed this weekend — JD Vance is already in the air, oil is crashing toward $80, and Democrats have no answer for a president who ended the biggest nuclear threat on earth in 104 days. New York City descended into mob violence two nights running — Spurs fans beaten, a taxi driver nearly killed, and cops punched on camera while the Mondaire Jones administration keeps police handcuffed. Even Stephen A. Smith drew the line. Virginia's Clean Slate Law is about to hide 100,000 criminal records from landlords and employers. St. Louis County Executive Sam Page faces his day of reckoning in court. Heritage Foundation's Brent Sadler explains exactly why the IRGC is sabotaging the peace deal. Rep. Eric Burlison drops truth bombs on FISA, digital currency, and the surveillance state. Defending Education's Rhyen Staley exposes the National PTA as a woke indoctrination machine operating inside your child's school right now. And a CIA whistleblower blows the lid off Anthony Fauci's intentional COVID cover-up — a crime against humanity that a presidential pardon may not be able to bury forever. This is the Marc Cox Morning Show — and today was one for the books.

2026-05-27 | UPDATES #207 | Putin is losing. Every authoritarian decisional principle, every historical precedent, every piece of strategic-studies literature on cornered-dictator behaviour says the same thing. When a dictator perceives that the war he started is unsalvageable on his current trajectory, he escalates. This is why Europe needs to send a clear signal, push back hard and define red lines. A desperate dictator, detached from reality and strategic consequences is dangerous. Now we must contain him, and our response needs to punch back so hard, that he cannot ignore the signal, so that his minions cannot explain it away or hide the truth from him. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------ACTIVE CAMPAIGN:We are raising funds for 5 of 15 Vampire DronesSilicon Curtain for Kupiansk Vampires.

2026-05-26 | UPDATES #206 | DEMENTED AND DANGEROUS: Why the Putin stumbling through May 2026 may be the most lethal Putin of the entire war. As his voice fails – and he can't even summon the strength to shout ‘Hurrah', as the footage recently suppressed by the Kremlin attest to, it seems that Putin is becoming less rational, more visibly angry, frustrated, and possibly confused. He is certainly detached from reality to a large degree, because of the skewed information he is receiving from sycophants and lackeys within the vertical of power. No one wants to tell demented grandpa the truth – in case they feel his wrath, as his war failures accelerate. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------ACTIVE CAMPAIGN:We are raising funds for 5 of 15 Vampire DronesSilicon Curtain for Kupiansk Vampires.

Come get overwhelmingly bummed out with Mike, Conny and the potential threat of total nuclear annihilation of the human species that is completely out of your control and looms over all of our heads on a moment to moment basis since some time In the 1950s. We also spend a lot of time talking about anything else including traffic in the great state of New Jersey, and what cookie is the best cookie? Give us five stars and stick your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye.By the way Conny was right, the sound clip from the Possibility of life's Destruction by the greatest hardcore punk band of all time Discharge does come from The War Game (1965). So you can remember that when you hear the sound of an enormous door slamming the depths of hell.

In the fall of 1983, NATO's annual nuclear war exercise, Able Archer 83, brought the United States and the Soviet Union closer to catastrophe than almost anyone in Washington understood at the time. Brian J. Morra—decorated former Air Force intelligence officer, aerospace executive, and author of the historical thriller The Able Archers—was inside those events: stationed in Tokyo during the KAL 007 shootdown, transferred to Washington just as the crisis peaked, and present in Germany as Soviet nuclear alerts reached levels never seen before or since. He walks Chris through the paranoia that drove Operation RYAN, the Kremlin's vast intelligence collection effort premised on the certainty of a NATO first strike; why mirror imaging at CIA left Reagan largely uninformed; and how three individuals—General Charles Donnelly, Lieutenant Colonel Stanislav Petrov, and General Leonard Perutz—each exercised the kind of cool judgment that kept the crisis from tipping into war. Morra draws the line from 1983 to the present: when leadership on opposing sides stops talking directly, the system fails—and that failure, he argues, looks familiar today.Subscribe and share to stay ahead in the world of intelligence, global issues, and current affairs.Learn more about Brian and his work: https://brianjmorra.com/Order The Able Archers: https://brianjmorra.com/the-able-archers/Support Secrets and SpiesBecome a “Friend of the Podcast” on Patreon for £3/$4: https://www.patreon.com/SecretsAndSpiesBuy merchandise from our shop: https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/60934996Buy us a coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/secretsandspiesSubscribe to our YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDVB23lrHr3KFeXq4VU36dgFor more information about the podcast, check out our website: https://secretsandspiespodcast.comConnect with us on social media Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/secretsandspies.bsky.socialInstagram: https://instagram.com/secretsandspiesFacebook: https://facebook.com/secretsandspiesSpoutible: https://spoutible.com/SecretsAndSpiesFollow Chris and Matt on Bluesky:https://bsky.app/profile/chriscarrfilm.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/mattfulton.netSecrets and Spies is produced by Films & Podcasts LTD: https://filmsandpodcasts.co.uk/Music by Andrew R.
