NEVER BEFORE HAVE SO MANY OWED SO MUCH TO SO FEW
These words were spoken August 20th, 1940, by the Prime Minister of England, to pilots of the British Royal Air Force, who had been showing great courage against the German Luftwaffe in an effort to save Great Britain from being bombed into submission. This was the Battle of Britain- these were dark days- and the PM wanted these brave men to know that they carried the undying gratitude of their countrymen for their courage and sacrifice in the face of overwhelming odds.

Customer Reviews
Would listen to y’all do the phone book any day!!!
Unfortunately, the first podcast I ever heard was from the 1001 family. I say unfortunate because it set the bar really high. The topics are well researched, interesting, varied on subject but never disappointing. This is my number one favorite thing in any podcast station!! Thank you for making learning so interesting my kids even listen with me.!!
Great fun
Thanks for another great addition to to family of 1001 podcasts!
There Goes the Neighborhood
What a cool show! Whoda known this stuff? Thanks!
