Fun times with Noah. Noah is a friend who just so happens to have tons of knowledge on world war 2. I wanted a good excuse to talk with him and my memory of history is foggy at best. So, we did this episode. There's still much more to cover so a part 2 is in order.

This was Heath’s first 100 miler making the accomplishment even more impressive. Pod...
