Welcome to another DayStrider Bonus Episode.  Battlefield tour guide Steve Smith and I sneak behind enemy lines, and he shares the fascinating stories about the night the Germans began bombing the British with zeppelins!  You’ll hear the truth - but also - you will hear some myths about those first raids.  If you like learning about The Great War, these stories will be right up your alley!  Find a quiet place where you can relax while Steve and I take you back to that fateful night in Norfolk, Britain.   

This DayStrider Bonus Episode features the full-length interview that was highlighted on January 19th: Epic Delivery Routes.  In that episode you will also hear about the greatest beer run ever - a epic tale about a guy named Chickie, Pabst beer and the Vietnam war.  After that, we’ll hear a stunning “origin story” about the world renowned Tour de France.  It’s almost too hard to believe.  

Enjoy!
