Hardcore History is Back

After a brief absence Dan Carlin's Hardcore History is back, with the first in a two-part podcast on the Punic Wars. He focusses more on a broad overview and what it was like to experience than on the names and dates and does a pretty good job of evoking things which we, hopefully, will never have to live through.
