    On the topic of yogurt: I actually had a professor in college make his own yogurt from scratch, and occasionally you would be lucky (or unlucky) enough to catch him on his lunch break and be given a sample of this…. experiment. One of my classmates was given a cup of this stuff and man was it interesting. Whatever bacteria he used to make it would still be reacting with the other stuff in the yogurt and it actually bubbled… and it was ominously warm. We were all so fascinated by the weird warm cup of bubbling yogurt that none of us wanted to try it. Very weird experience.

      There is a maximum size for a fighter pilot still today. Back in Vietnam you had to be a small guy to be a tunnel rat, small guys tending to be belly gunners in WWII because they could get in and out of the gun turret, etc. Conversely, you also don't tend to have a smaller guy be the "heavy weapon" guy in a squad. The idea is not really out of line at all...

    Nice episode, guys ! Good job ! This format is great : long episode with less ads ;) I know it is a audio podcast but as it is also on UA-cam, could you pleeeease show some illustrations pics here or there :) ? But, I kind of miss the dynamic and humor of the first episodes. I feel like you have less fun doing it than you used to ! I miss James' personas imitations ! But still my favorite podcast, I always enjoy listening to you, thanks for your work ! Keep on going !

      As a creator myself, I know they censor in order to avoid YT's super sensitive "we are going to demonetize" bot (not really named that). Anyway, YT will demonetize you for some really stupid reasons. This is why you often hear them bleep cockpit even though in itself, is not an offensive word. So, they need to censor to keep their money coming in so they can pay the bills. Not being argumentative, just informing.

    Major hurst wasnt an engineer... in the british military we have 2 seperate corps. Royal Engineers (RE) that are more like building, plumbing and electricians (for buildings) and the Royal Electrical Mechanical Engineers (REME). Hurst was REME.
    It may sound petty to you but over here its like calling a marine a sailor or something.
    Also RE dont get discount when buying new from VW, REME do because the corps helped rebuild them :)

    actually tanks nowadays are made as fast and light with the smallest possible profile as possible, of course it still is big af but engineers trying to make tanks smaller,lighter and more agile. That shows that porsche did not just made a unreasonable proposal, he actually used a sense of modern tank engeneering, in opposite to hitlers thinking of „bigger is better“
