Operation Mincemeat - The Man Who Never Was

We're Not Experts - Two Amateurs Muddle Through History by Sarah Smith & James Nason

Episode notes

In this gripping episode, we get stuck into the brilliantly bonkers tale of Operation Mincemeat — the top-secret WWII deception that fooled Hitler and helped turn the tide of the war. Join us as we unpack how a dead body, a briefcase full of fake intel, and a dash of British eccentricity led to one of the most daring wartime hoaxes ever pulled off. If you're into clever cloak-and-dagger stories from history, this one's not to be missed!
