    Thanks! I'll give that a listen. I think the last episode I listened to was about the Arctic convoys.

    I found the first hour a bit frustrating. There's a bunch of stuff about 8th Army (not what I am listening to the episode for) and finally a bit about intelligence errors wrt Kasserine Pass. But then it starts to talk about the use of (large amounts of) intercepted low grade signals intelligence to understand the pattern of the German aerial supply runs which enable the RAF to mount Operation Flax, to intercept those flights decisively, and that's really interesting. Possibly of interest to Orwell1984 ?

    It's a terrific resource....and there is an amazing 'back-catalogue' of similarly detailed and informed discussions on the podcast.
