La Resistance

In this episode, we look at D’Astier’s infamous quote that you had to be mal-adjusted to be a Resistant in 1940.  We also look back to the Spanish Civil War, N’Orleans just after the American Civil War, and also mis-pronounce everything in a ten block radius (at no extra charge!).

Special thanks to the fine folks of the Podsafe Music Network and the band Boom Boom Beckett for the jazz piece used in this episode.

Episode two of the podcast La Resistance, “Of the First Hour: War of the Unknown Warrior.” In this ep we look at the birth of the French Resistance. We discuss radio speeches, the weather in Bordeaux, a terrorist cell of little old ladies, and the monster of Loch Ness. We also call Marshal Petain a tool and wonder if those people on the Ile de Seine ever got their boats back.
