Think history is boring? That’s because you’ve only ever heard the fake version.

On History Rage, professional historians come in swinging — smashing the myths, clichés, and half-truths that keep getting recycled in classrooms, documentaries, and TikToks. Vikings with horned helmets? Nope. Britain standing alone in 1940? Wrong. Medieval people never bathed? Rubbish.

Why listen? Because the truth is way more exciting. You’ll leave every episode with jaw-dropping stories, killer facts to shut down pub bores, and the smug satisfaction of knowing what really happened.

🎧 Episodes drop every Monday.

📲 Follow now and get the history they don’t teach you — raw, raging, and real.

The significant involvement of minor gentry, countryside landowners, and skilled tradesmen.
The strategic and militarised organisation of the revolt, influenced by the Hundred Years War.

150. Agent Zo: Don't forget Eastern European Resistance with Clare Mulley | Gloucester History Festival

mardi 17 septembre 2024 • Durée 16:45

Welcome back, ragers, to day four of the Gloucester History Festival! Today, host Paul Bavill is joined by author and historian Clare Mulley for a riveting discussion about the often-overlooked Polish resistance during World War II. Clare, known for her work on women in the resistance, delves into the remarkable life of Elzbieta Zawacka, the subject of her book "Agent Zo." Join us as we rage against the historical neglect of Eastern European resistance and celebrate the extraordinary achievements of women like Elżbieta.

Spotlight on Polish Resistance:

Clare Mulley shares the incredible story of Elzbieta Zawacka, the only woman to serve as an emissary of an Allied army and the sole female courier to traverse nearly a thousand miles of occupied territory during WWII.
Uncover the harsh realities and heroics of the Polish Home Army, the largest underground resistance movement in Nazi-occupied Europe.
Examine the strategic importance of the Warsaw Uprising and the continued struggle against Soviet-imposed communism post-WWII.

Raging Against Historical Neglect:

Clare's frustration with the Western focus on the French resistance while Eastern European efforts, particularly in Poland, remain underappreciated.
The critical role of Polish women in the resistance, from intelligence gathering to frontline combat, and the systemic erasure of their contributions.

Elzbieta Zawacka's Legacy:

Elżbieta's daring missions, including her parachute jump into Nazi-occupied Poland and her relentless fight within the Warsaw Uprising.
Her post-war imprisonment and torture under the Soviet regime, and her continued resistance, educating young women and supporting the Solidarity movement.

141. Burma was not just an infantry jungle war with Jack Bowsher

Saison 13 · Épisode 3

dimanche 11 août 2024 • Durée 01:07:43

Dive deep into the sweltering heat and relentless terrain of the Burmese jungle with this explosive episode of History Rage. Host Paul Bavill welcomes the fiercely passionate Jack Bowsher, historian and author of "Forgotten Armour," to blast through the misconceptions of the Burma Campaign during World War II.

The Jungle Myth Debunked:

- Jack ignites the conversation with a fiery critique of the pervasive myth that the Burma Campaign was solely an infantry slog through monsoon jungles, revealing the untold story of diverse geographical combat and the pivotal role of armoured units.

Tanks Take the Spotlight:

- Discover how the reliable and robust American-designed tanks like the Stuart, Lee-Grant, and Sherman became the unsung heroes, mastering the art of bunker busting and altering the course of the campaign with their formidable presence.

Japanese Resistance Outmanoeuvred:

- The episode exposes the Japanese army's failed attempts to adapt to the armoured onslaught, as their outdated anti-tank tactics and desperate measures crumbled against the Commonwealth's mechanized might.

Infantry-Tank Synergy:

- Jack recounts tales of extraordinary combined operations, where the precise coordination between Commonwealth infantry and tanks led to decisive victories, from the bloody tennis court at Kohima to the strategic thunder run to Meiktila.

Forgotten Armour Unveiled:

- Get a tantalizing preview of Jack's upcoming book, "Forgotten Armour," which promises to deliver a riveting account of tank warfare in Burma, painting the war from the cramped interior of a tank.

Join us as we peel back the layers of history's overlooked battles and pay homage to the steel beasts that broke the back of the Japanese army. For those hungry for more, follow Jack on Twitter and mark your calendars for the release of "Forgotten Armour" this summer.
