From this week's digest — This Week's Pick
🎯 This Week's Pick
Unauthorized History of the Pacific War podcast artwork
The Battle for Wake Island
Unauthorized History of the Pacific War · 3h25m · May 05
World War II Tactics & Battles Naval

Seth Paridon combines both Wake Island episodes into a single 3.5-hour block covering the December 1941 defence — the Marine garrison's unlikely repulse of the first Japanese landing, the failed relief expedition, and the eventual fall. At this length you get the full operational picture: the improvised coastal defence, VMF-211's dwindling Wildcats, and the Navy's agonising decision not to push Task Force 14 through. One of the best single-sitting treatments of Wake available in podcast form.
