We grabbed one of the BEST resources on the internet, World War Wisdom, to fill us in on everything there is about WW2 reenacting-- including things like RE history, the different types, signing up, gearing up and gear authenticity, finding a unit, rules and regulations, safety, firearms & blank firing, receiving & taking orders, tactics, shooting, dying & respawning, accidents, thieves, post-event parties, veterans, tanks & jeeps, explosives, grenades & mortars... you get it now, we get into it all!
Plus we find out how our guest got started (*spoiler he was 8!) and we get some great advice on everything from finding a good group to where to grab the best gear to look the part.
We somehow talk about even more things, and kept the poor guy for about 3 hours, but we wanted to be thorough, so definitely give this one a listen, you will learn a lot and most likely want to give it a try!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
