S3E9: The Little Weapons That Couldn't
Episode 9
Wednesday, 1 April, 2026

The best efforts are wasted on bad ideas, and we've got some doozies straight from WWII. Anthony talks about the Krummlauf, which almost (if not quite) entirely failed to fire bullets on a curve. Adam talks about Anti-Tank no. 74 sticky grenades, which almost (if not quite) entirely failed to stick to tanks (or anything else).Hosts: Adam Azra'el, Anthony StatenProducer: Adam Azra'el
