À propos de cet audio
On Christmas Eve, 1914, something extraordinary happened. Along the frozen trenches of the Western Front, enemies laid down their weapons, sang carols across no man’s land, exchanged gifts, and—according to some accounts—even played a game of soccer.
In this episode, we explore the mystery of the WWI Christmas Truce: How did a spontaneous ceasefire break out without orders? How widespread was it really? And why did it terrify military leaders on both sides? Through letters from soldiers and firsthand accounts we examine a moment when shared humanity briefly interrupted the machinery of war—and why it never happened again.
Then, Riley gathers everyone around the fireplace for a Christmas Classic: The Wolf Truce 🎄
