It is here!

The Patreon version of the video (well, a draft of that) is here!

Soon my pretties, soon

I hope to have a draft version up tomorrow AM and then an edited version up by, ideally tomorrow night. You'll get access to both so you can chose to go early, or wait, as you want...

Wingate's After Action Report

Well this is jolly exciting - £80 later and I am now the proud owner of a copy of Orde Wingate's work of fict...sorry....after action report that got Churchill all hot and bothered when Wingate sent it directly to him, entirely bypassing his chain of command

Make Elbonia OKish But Not Too Much

Later today (well in just over 3hrs, at 12:30BST (GMT-1)) I'll be streaming with Animarchy, Rex’s Hanagar and History of Everything

Today we’re attempting to procure for the armed forces of Elbonia, the best kit that is deeply flawed. If it’s too obviously flawed we’ll get shot by the Generalissimo but if it’s too good the resistance will shoot us. Who’d want to be us!

The letter we got follows

"Dear Comrade General-Generals...

Live Stream Tomorrow

I shall be emerging briefly from the video mines to talk shit with friends about the best-worst military kit in history if you fancy joining

Work In Progress

Well, ok, so, no plan surives first contact with the enemy, and so it is that I find myself somewhat deeply immersed in my new topic. Realistically that means nothing new video wise for sometime, probably the end of next month, so my sincere apologies but I need to get this right....however I should be able to do a few in fairly quick succession thereafter. Meanwhile, I thought you might be amsued by this which I made as part of my midlife-crisis-cum-study redecoration....I mean when you find...

Schedule of Works

Following the Patreon vote here and on the Discord it was a narrow win for Bill Slim, so here's a mug shot of the magnificent bastard. Work has started on a script and I hope to have it out by the end of July.

There will also be a live stream of The Ministers of Elbonia in which we try to select the apparently best military kit for our country, but which is in fact fatally flawed....should be fun, hoping to do that in the next few weeks

Meanwhile, and very excitingly, I'll be a...

Where to next?

OK, so I will go back to the Bomber War at some point, but honestly I need a break from it. So I'm either going to cover a British General who doesn't get the credit he deserves on account of being Far Away (bet you can guess who) OR something totally different and do a few videos on the Anglo Saxon Kingdoms, Alfred the Great etc. Which do you want to see first?

New Video.....

Hello you wonderful nerds! As part of The Elect Few you get access to my videos early. However there is Early and there is Early. I threw up, via the Discord, a draft that I’d not quite finished work on, on Friday, so if you’d like to see that then it’s here - https://youtu.be/UDMcZzr5-tU - but bear in mind that a) it lacks background music b) some animations don’t quite work, and c) there’s a whole bit of aud...

Next video!

Thank you for your on going patience, I realise that waiting an age for me to get things done is not a lot of fun, and worse I am now slightly behind LP in my release schedule, but I hope to have the next video up by next Thursday, with an early release for my Patreon members just as soon as I can get this draft finished (hopefully by Friday...but....yeah...life)

Recording Done

When I first started, this was supposed to be 30-minute tops....ummmm....it is not. My mobile recording studio, e.g., a duvet over my head, is not exactly the most comfortable thing, and I look like Caspar the Ghost much to Her Ladyship's amusement but it is done, and now I have about 90 minutes of audio in the can.

As usual, Patreons will get an early preview as soon as I can, probably in a couple of weeks' time, with a general release probably a few days later (I've kept the swearin...

It's coming

Apologies for the radio silence. The good news is that I've basically finished the script, a bit of top and tailing to do but basically done. So hopefully recording this weekend and then into the hell of editing....soon my pretties, soon

Proper bombsight

Think this is a Mk XIV but could be wrong

I'm gonna touch it.....

At the North East Land and Sea Museum and about to be thrown out....

Adventures in Naziland

Well you handsome bastards, beautiful bitches and alluring others there's a new video up! You lot keep me in books and in exchange I give you early access to stuff BUT bear in mind that this may not be quite the finished article and could be a bit rough n ready in places. As every your feedback and understanding is most welcome!

Checking In

Thought I had better quickly drop out a note to say a) I am not dead, b) hopes to get this video done by Saturday were dashed on the rocks of reality and c) hopefully by next weekend!

PHWOOAARRR

So look folks, I have a preview for a video that is upcoming up BUT it remains a bit rough in places, and I have a whole segment I'm waiting on from Red Wrench, *so* you can watch it as it is OR you can wait until I get the bit from Red, drop it in and upload the thing later in the week...your call

AMA

As you may have seen I have proposed to the peseantry of YouTube that Her Ladyship, Jenkins and I host an AMA when the channel hits 35,000 subscribers. However you, the landed gentry of the channel, are far too important to wait. Thus, if you would like to ask me, Jenkins or Her Ladyship a question, please do submit it below and I will elicit a response.

P-47 vs P-51D

I couldn't shoe horn this into my latest video (which members can see already)

Just thought folks might be interested in this chart, taken from a pretty reliable source, on the relative ranges of the P-47 vs P-51D over time. The long and the short of it is the P-51 without tanks had the range of the P-47 with tanks, and when drop tanks came on stream properly, could easily out range it. Which shouldn't come as a surprised the Jug was shaped like a flying brick.

NEW VIDEO

Hello folks, well my videos are a little like buses sometimes - you wait three months and then two come along at once. I have uploaded this to YT, who tell me that it is very naughty and contains a sequence that belongs to someone else. So, this then, is just for you, whilst I re editi it for the great unwashed!. Enjoy!

Just the tip

So for those of you who might best be described as HardThrasher-curious, I have good news! Today at 18:00GMT I will be premiering my new video on the Me262! And it has only taken me four days to get YT to release it, something of a PB

Of course, for those who're already memeber this is old news as they've spent the last few days in glorious smugness having seen it already.....and have access to the Discord where they can nerd out with me and other simple minded folks whenever they want...

FINALLY!

So look you have all been very, very patient and I want to say thank you by giving you early access to my latest video. The slight hitch is that I am, as ever, wrestling with the crocodile that is the YT monetisation algorithm which is displeased with some part of it but won't tell me what. So, whilst I have that fight here is a slightly earlier draft, with all of the swearing and swastikas but which is a bit rough around the edges and doesn't have quite the finished article's polish. Or titl...

Paying My Respects

Folks, I'm going to be going to the International Bomber Command Memorial and the Cambridge US Military Cemetery at the end of the month.

If anyone has names, they want me to look up, just ping me a PM. I'm happy to take a picture or leave something or just read a name out loud.

New Premier!

Good news! Finally finished a video and got it up, so Premier tonight at 20:00 after a new Lazerpig Premier at 18:00....what a start to the year!

New Video Just For You!

Well I'm in a waiting pattern for YT to decide whether it loves me or not, and so in the interim you get *exclusive* content because you're a sexy beast. 

Happy New Year!!

Hope you all have a good one!

If you missed it...

The live stream from boxing day is here if you need a distraction

Boxing Day Livestream

I am hungover, I have more alcohol, some friends who're into military stuff and we're going to try and do a sort of Cool Wall. Honestly it's hard to see how this could go wrong. If you're bored of the family, come and watch and take the piss from the side lines :)

The Butt Report

Beautiful Humans, as a thank you for your on-going support, please feel free to smugly watch my new video, which will contain few ads, as YT thinks I'm talking about bottom sex or something...anyway, as I fight the good fight with the algorythm, you get the watch this before anyone, including YT's human reviewer!

A little teaser for the next video
