(01:52):
get to that here in a second ross with Ja
forst Buddy, I am back on my World War two
content viewing tip.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah, I gotta tell you. But you know it's funny.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
I asked Jayden last week during the eight bit update,
because he's talking about this this battlefield game that's coming
out or something like that.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
I forget what it's called. And I asked him if
they had a World War.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
II iteration of it, and of course he said there
were a number of those out there, I said. The
reason I asked is I think Ross loves playing the
World War two games.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
I know you have a big affinity for it.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Well, I mean, to be honest with you, I'm not
the biggest fan.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Of shooter games. I'm way nerdier than that.
Speaker 5 (02:27):
I like a good crystal and like a boy on
a farm lane, I'm sure.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Yeah, Task to Save the World on its sword.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
Yeah, yeah, all that stuff, the legendary sort of Masamune
and I but I did play Call of Duty World
War Two. It is insanely accurate. And what's really cool
is that if you pay enough attention, if you read
the little loading screens and little things that you can
pick up, it's also very educational. Nice I chose why
(02:54):
Germany failed on D Day featuring Jonathan Ferguson. It is
a I mean, there's how much information on YouTube. There's
so much World War II content, but this video is
the top one percent of World War two YouTube videos
that I have consumed. I thought it was fascinating, and
call me crazy here. I thought there was a small
(03:16):
element of comedy, a little bit.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Oh yeah, I didn't pick up on the comedy part
of it. Yeah, I got it.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
Yeah, I know, I gotta be careful about what I
say here because let me, twenty four hundred US men
died on Omaha Beach and you're chucking it up exactly,
talk to me about Utah. I learned so much about
Utah Beach from this video. Some of it still field
with heroics, right, and still fielded with bravery, but there
(03:44):
was also a certain portion on the Utah Beach. Because
I didn't know this, there was a lot of paratroop
and going down over on the Utah Beach while Omaha
because of how much movies and you know how many
things that we've seen about the boats showing.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
Up on the beach. Yeah, the landers, right, yeah, not
too long.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
Not a little bit to the west, there's Utah Beach
and there's a lot of paratrooping going down. And this
is the only thing that I found a little bit
comedic is finding out that there were some paratroopers on
that epic day that kind of got lost and confused
and spent the rest of the day just trying to
find the rest of their friends.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Exactly.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
They found that one helmet of that one soldier that
it fell off, and they didn't really know what happened
to him, and they did later find out I think
he was killed in battle, but his helmet fell off
and was in that area. That's that's how they tracked
where some of those people went.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Yeah, and then and then I thought the funniest thing.
Speaker 5 (04:37):
I know, that's weird to say, but at least one
of the most interesting things that I learned about Utah
Beach via this video is that while they came to
Grips with like I'm not gonna find my squad, what's
your name? My name's tom My name Steve want to
complete the mission together and then they just became best
(04:58):
of but.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Like an eagles out kind of thing.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
Yeah, and then they just didn't know each other and
fought together, falling down Germans. I just thought it was
I've never heard that story or that element about this massive,
infamous day, and I didn't know about that, the French
resistance being part of it, like really not even uniformed soldiers.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
They're out there like.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
In street, closed shootings machine guys. I'm not sure there's
there's video of it. But then like literally fighting German
soldiers in like jeans and a T shirt with an
oozier or you know, whatever the weapon of the choice
was at that time, and there was bunches of them
out there just helping. No no equipment, no gear, no nothing.
French resistance was huge.
Speaker 6 (05:36):
But France, because they as a country, you know, surrendered,
they get they get a lot of you know, crap
for that. You know, we had to come save you,
and no doubt that, you know, us and and all
the Allied forces did you know, eventually liberate France.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
And it was like four days too. But the French.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
Resistance was a huge force that was used by Allied
for in the campaign.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Audrey Hepburn used to smuggle Allied messages in her ballet slippers.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Did she really? Yeah? Did not know that.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Yeah, the French resistance had its fingers way down in
the culture.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
And is this the first war?
Speaker 4 (06:11):
I don't know if they did this during World War One,
But we did a lot of deception, like a lot
of faults landing, a lot of like you know, inflatable
tanks and stuff like this where we were just throwing
people off, just throwing anything out on the on the board.
I'd never heard that in warfare before. Did that happen
also in w W one?
Speaker 1 (06:27):
World War One? Just is the dirtiest war.
Speaker 5 (06:30):
Everything that I learned about World War One just mud
and they moved seventy yards. Yeah, yeah, a lot of
young people died, and it was basically for very little
over the smallest amount of land that this massive battle
just went back and forth forth. But how about this,
how about the when you were talking about the helmet
(06:52):
of a World War Two soldier and the guy has
the gloves and it's not just one of those AI
documentary videos where they just they out really epic uh
not what we said props, but epic weaponary weaponry, weaponry
artifacts from the war.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
How about the MG forty two crazy?
Speaker 5 (07:11):
I mean, if you ask me, what's the gun of
World War Two, it's like the visual image of World
War Two?
Speaker 1 (07:17):
That's the one, yeah, yeah, the one there.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
It is, the one with the fluted barrel, the one
at the end where it's like kind of you know,
like's like a I forget the name of that. Oh god,
the old big shotgun that the Germans just carry around.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
What's that thing called.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
It's just I thought this video was educational and I
learned something. I thought it was really interesting learning that
much about Utah. But MG forty two, which I think
I think that just stands for a machine gun forty two.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
I want to say that's what the MG think could
be how.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
Many rounds it shoot per second or something you never
know what the or how long it is. Caliber Yeah, yeah, caliber,
which I cared as much about history in high school
and and just school in general as I do now.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Same here. Yeah, absolutely loved it. Yeah, yeah, it was great. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
It may have been a little different than an all
boys school, maybe a pay potention a little bit more.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
I thought.
Speaker 6 (08:04):
The thing I actually learned from this, I knew about
the the the one hundred and first and the eighty
second airborne kind of you know, missing their targets due
to the weather situation. However, the German response where Rama
wanted to meet them on the beach and not let
them get a foothold, and the generals in charge of
(08:25):
the panzer divisions, they're like, yeah, well we don't agree
with that. Let's let's split things up. And that was
a that was a fatal flaw.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
It was a fatal flaw because they divided that panzer
division up into different areas and they did not have
enough manpower or machinery to defend those points. Because they
had no idea how many of the Allies were coming,
and it was amazing.
Speaker 6 (08:45):
Allowed the Allies to actually establish, you know, a foothold
on the on the shore.
Speaker 5 (08:50):
I've always looked at D Day as the growing up.
I always thought it was the turning point of the war,
but I would say, more so, it's closer to the
beginning of the end of Nazi Germany.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
It really was.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
Yeah, it was. It was like, oh, yeah, you guys
aren't going to recover. Yeah, once this is and you
guys aren't going anywhere. Once the landing was successful and
they set up the ports. What was the port never there?
The one of the point there, I cannot remember. It's
in a long name or whatever.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
But once they set that port up and were able
to basically create a safe area for you know, the
Allies start bringing in not only infantry, also machinery and support,
whether it be for the food, whatever the case may be.
You know, once that was established, it was pretty much
over for the Germans. It was done, or for the
Evil Axis, I should say.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
But yeah, there's never a bad time to talk about
World War Two. If there's one thing life has shown me,
it's exactly that last statement is that the more you learn,
the more you can understand so much about our species
because it's the it's the worst and the best of times. Oh,
when it comes to being a human. If you were
(09:54):
to ask me.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
I don't know why, I said deb there, Yeah, yet
what did we get from the list? Did have anything
about the video?
Speaker 2 (10:05):
The most amazing thing to me was that someone should
have helped Hitler have a much better sleep schedule, because
when you're planning a D Day invasion and you're anticipating,
you know, three four sets of your allies, sleeping until
the middle of the afternoon is probably not.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
A really good choice.
Speaker 6 (10:20):
They were on an invasion rebellion retreat, nore off and
he hadn't.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Quite but you had a doctor to walk around him
and injected him like twenty four hours a day.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
It's like he's Elvis before Elvis was.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Elvis AfterAll warn off and then he became eight off Spacoli.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Yes, seriously, I mean like to find out that these
plans are going on and German officials are visiting their
families in Germany. Adolf Hitler is sound asleep till the
middle of the afternoon. It's almost it's almost as if
they're hubris, they believe that they had everything in the
bag and it was all tightened up and ready to go,
and it was just.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Well, he didn't.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
He basically ignore every single major general had told him
that they were losing the war. He just basically ignored
them and acted like it wasn't even said.
Speaker 6 (11:05):
But for D Day to be a surprise, for that
level of involvement, that that does not happen again, for
that many people to know of a plan and to
be able to make it a surprise, and for Eisenhower
to be able to tell the press, hey, don't print
anything until you know.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
After we go, and everyone's like cool, yeah.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
Nowadays you know, someone's oh, I got to be the
first one to get it. On two Talk, do you
think Americans took what they were saying for real at stake,
like what they thought was like the possibility of you know,
global dominance from Germany and the Nazis. Did you do
you think Americans just basically went, Okay, he's serious this time.
Don't say anything, anybody, you know, just like quiet down. No,
that was me because I don't know if that could
happen today, it wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
But that was back in the day when the press
and the government had a kind of quiet understanding. It's
it's the same thing as you know. Jackie O may
have found several pairs of panties in the White House
bed that did not belong to her, but the press
wouldn't report on.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
FDR, not reporting on FDR being uh in a whale
chair in who right? Exactly? For sure.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
It's called the Reason Germany failed on D Day. It's

I mean, if you ask me, what's the gun of
World War Two, it's like the visual image of World

Speaker 1 (07:17):
That's the one, yeah, yeah, the one there.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
It is, the one with the fluted barrel, the one

It's just I thought this video was educational and I

I think that just stands for a machine gun forty two.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
I want to say that's what the MG think could
be how.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
Many rounds it shoot per second or something you never
know what the or how long it is. Caliber Yeah, yeah, caliber,
which I cared as much about history in high school
and and just school in general as I do now.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Same here. Yeah, absolutely loved it. Yeah, yeah, it was great. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
It may have been a little different than an all
boys school, maybe a pay potention a little bit more.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
I thought.
Speaker 6 (08:04):
The thing I actually learned from this, I knew about
the the the one hundred and first and the eighty
second airborne kind of you know, missing their targets due
to the weather situation. However, the German response where Rama
wanted to meet them on the beach and not let
them get a foothold, and the generals in charge of
(08:25):
the panzer divisions, they're like, yeah, well we don't agree
with that. Let's let's split things up. And that was
a that was a fatal flaw.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
It was a fatal flaw because they divided that panzer
division up into different areas and they did not have
enough manpower or machinery to defend those points. Because they
had no idea how many of the Allies were coming,
and it was amazing.
Speaker 6 (08:45):
Allowed the Allies to actually establish, you know, a foothold
on the on the shore.
Speaker 5 (08:50):
I've always looked at D Day as the growing up.
I always thought it was the turning point of the war,
but I would say, more so, it's closer to the
beginning of the end of Nazi Germany.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
It really was.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
Yeah, it was. It was like, oh, yeah, you guys
aren't going to recover. Yeah, once this is and you
guys aren't going anywhere. Once the landing was successful and
they set up the ports. What was the port never there?
The one of the point there, I cannot remember. It's
in a long name or whatever.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
But once they set that port up and were able
to basically create a safe area for you know, the
Allies start bringing in not only infantry, also machinery and support,
whether it be for the food, whatever the case may be.
You know, once that was established, it was pretty much
over for the Germans. It was done, or for the
Evil Axis, I should say.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
But yeah, there's never a bad time to talk about
World War Two. If there's one thing life has shown me,
it's exactly that last statement is that the more you learn,
the more you can understand so much about our species
because it's the it's the worst and the best of times. Oh,
when it comes to being a human. If you were
(09:54):
to ask me.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
I don't know why, I said deb there, Yeah, yet
what did we get from the list? Did have anything
about the video?
Speaker 2 (10:05):
The most amazing thing to me was that someone should
have helped Hitler have a much better sleep schedule, because
when you're planning a D Day invasion and you're anticipating,
you know, three four sets of your allies, sleeping until
the middle of the afternoon is probably not.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
A really good choice.
Speaker 6 (10:20):
They were on an invasion rebellion retreat, nore off and
he hadn't.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Quite but you had a doctor to walk around him
and injected him like twenty four hours a day.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
It's like he's Elvis before Elvis was.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Elvis AfterAll warn off and then he became eight off Spacoli.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Yes, seriously, I mean like to find out that these
plans are going on and German officials are visiting their
families in Germany. Adolf Hitler is sound asleep till the
middle of the afternoon. It's almost it's almost as if
they're hubris, they believe that they had everything in the
bag and it was all tightened up and ready to go,
and it was just.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Well, he didn't.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
He basically ignore every single major general had told him
that they were losing the war. He just basically ignored
them and acted like it wasn't even said.
Speaker 6 (11:05):
But for D Day to be a surprise, for that
level of involvement, that that does not happen again, for
that many people to know of a plan and to
be able to make it a surprise, and for Eisenhower
to be able to tell the press, hey, don't print
anything until you know.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
After we go, and everyone's like cool, yeah.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
Nowadays you know, someone's oh, I got to be the
first one to get it. On two Talk, do you
think Americans took what they were saying for real at stake,
like what they thought was like the possibility of you know,
global dominance from Germany and the Nazis. Did you do
you think Americans just basically went, Okay, he's serious this time.
Don't say anything, anybody, you know, just like quiet down. No,
that was me because I don't know if that could
happen today, it wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
But that was back in the day when the press
and the government had a kind of quiet understanding. It's
it's the same thing as you know. Jackie O may
have found several pairs of panties in the White House
bed that did not belong to her, but the press
wouldn't report on.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
FDR, not reporting on FDR being uh in a whale
chair in who right? Exactly? For sure.
