Combat vet now working a fucking office job. Let me tell you, there is not a day that goes by thinking about how fucking stupid and meaningless my job is compared to what I used to do eight/nine years ago.
we covered WW1 for three lessons in high school, 45 minutes of which were spent on the importance of tinned food.. it's fuckin wild that i'm learning more from an eagles fan who's 10 beers deep
I learned more about the Korean and Vietnam wars talking to my drunk uncles and grandpa than I ever did in school lol especially Korea, that one's never really talked about
@@turnermd1302 my grandpa served in ww2. He was a diver and they would disarm the bombs so subs didn’t hit them. Also flew a plane. Said he never had a license for either. Dad was in desert storm but he died when I was 6.
I remember taking a class on French history and, as soon as we discussed Verdun, my blood ran cold. No war was as brutal or as terrifying as the First World War.
There were up to 1.2 BILLION artillery shells fired during the 4 year period of WW1. That would be about 822,000 shells per day. The most used shell was the 75mm shrapnel shell weighed about 14.9lbs, so just using that metric about 17.88 BILLION pounds of shells were fired.
Aussies love WW1, the Lighthorse charge, Gallipoli, and the Somme. Shane should come out over ANZAC day,The Shrine and dawn service then Essendon vs Collingwood at the MCG is pretty awesome.
The shell shock physical symptoms were from being near so many concussive blasts. It damages your internal organs(including your brain). And of course PTSD, but I think they were two different things.
Again, I usually look at Shane like any other meme celebrity. But I've listened to Blueprint for Armageddon 3 times in the last 6 years and now I look at Shane like I would a peer. Again, I always get a kick when a celeb knows about the same things I do.
Shane has the most basic knowledge of history…but since Matt is the other half of the conversation, Shane always sounds like a knowledgeable lecturing Professor😂
The Somme was an interesting thing, it was fought on an isolated bit of land that was surrounded by artillery. It was an absolute meat grinder that they kept pouring men in to. Its one of the true hellish battles of modern war.
They did have more rifled muskets during the civil war but it was largely smooth-bore muskets… the smooth bores are cheaper to make but also faster to fire because you didn’t have to force a ball through the rifling, mini balls sped that up a little since they expanded after the powder was lit but that was the latter half of the war
The game of milk caps possibly originated in Maui, Hawaii, during the 1920s or 1930s, or possibly with origins in Menko, a Japanese card game very similar to milk caps, which has been in existence since the 17th century, during the Edo period. The game of milk caps was played on the Hawaiian island of Maui as early as 1927.
You understand that the Geneva convention is because of us Canadian’s 🇨🇦 during World War I and 2. We are ruthless against our enemies and always get to deal with harder assignments than anyone else. Storming the beaches we took Juno and then worked our way to help out other allied forces to storm their beaches
Also in WW1 we'd capture like a few miles (which was unheard of) we'd break the German lines we'd have the French or English following us meant to hold the captured area while we continue the offensive. But they'd retreat so quickly the Canadians had to abandon the mission to retake the same places from the opposite direction a couple times or they'd get cutoff from the allies.
Matt bringing the "and again" to Shane's attention, is a nice reflection of a friend of mine telling me "this one guy [Matt] keeps saying "damn" all the time"
Man just listened to blueprint for Armageddon. Americans don’t learn much about ww1, it’s mind bending how effed it was for the soldiers stuck in the trenches
😢those were it basically. Then Kosovo wanted to secede from Serbia and now they're independent too. Oh and North Macedonia is there, can't remember if it was part of Bulgaria or Yugoslavia back then but it's up there with Greece.

GWOT deployments were also stupid and meaningless, but you always miss the clowns not the circus
Blueprint for Armageddon is really really worth a listen to. Most folks don’t know much in depth about WWI.
Very true. I learned a lot from that series. And it deepens your understanding of WW2 learning about what led up to it.
So damn good.
There are a lot of moving parts. It gets confusing
There is no bad hardcore history episode they are all good
Also if you want to dive into the politics the lead up to WW1 there’s a great book called The Sleepwalkers

Staring at that thousand island dressing

No theres like 1000 mil sims. Theres even ones recreating the crusades. With online u can set up games with 100s of people.
3:03 Matt explains realpolitik
When he said he was listening to a ww1 podcast 99% of us said dan carlin in our heads 😂
Shane doing history talks is one of the most exquisite byproducts of our bizarre times lol

To be fair, it started that way.

Muskets were absolutely lethal out to ranges of 300 yards. Tired of historians acting like a musket ball wouldn’t do anything
All those photos of the facial wounds from WW1 are absolutely gruesome.
The amount of historical inaccuracies is making me rip my hair out.
This is how the kids learn history these days.
Better than any history teacher I’ve ever had 💁🏻♂️
Being in any of the major ww1 battles (marne, somme, verdun, pashendale, etc) would have been the worst situation for any human to have been in.
That WW1 series is an all timer
God Bless Peepop

You understand that the Geneva convention is because of us Canadian’s 🇨🇦 during World War I and 2. We are ruthless against our enemies and always get to deal with harder assignments than anyone else. Storming the beaches we took Juno and then worked our way to help out other allied forces to storm their beaches
Then you guys elected the biggest pussy to ever draw a breath of air and got crushed by the COVID war of 2020. How the mighty have fallen.
Also in WW1 we'd capture like a few miles (which was unheard of) we'd break the German lines we'd have the French or English following us meant to hold the captured area while we continue the offensive. But they'd retreat so quickly the Canadians had to abandon the mission to retake the same places from the opposite direction a couple times or they'd get cutoff from the allies.
my grandmother was Czechoslovakian, and even after the region divided the ethnicity was still referred to like that.
Gotta love the subtle nuances shane uses for thess delicate political and geographical matterd many of which still persist today. 😂
