Today we begin our long anticipated coverage of World War Two. Now, this being a US History Podcast, we are not going to delve into the granular details of the beginnings of the war in Europe, but we do give a general sense of the goings on that began the conflict. We then really discuss the US Policy of neutrality at the time.

So, German blitzkreigs and expansion into neighboring lands, followed by heading into Poland, then France. Once Germany atatcks the Soviet Union though, they have to fight a war on two fronts. 

Meanwhile US neutrality means zero involvement, then that evolves into becoming a supplier to The Allies. This manages to keep the US out of the war, at least for this podcast. 

There is always more to learn,

Jimmy & Jean
