This was a hugely fun chat in the middle of a heatwave! If you've ever wondered what the hell my academic pathway from the FIrst World War, via computer games, to Star Wars actually looks like - then we break it down here! 🗃️

Lots of fun talking higher ed, WWI, Star Wars, and gaming with the delightful @chriskempshall.bsky.social!

Ian has been at a conference this weekend, but you don't need to travel to hear him talk about his new book! Listen in comfort of your home/car/bath(?)/whatever!

New episode and new season!🎙️🎙️🎙️ In this episode, Ian talks with Kurt about his new book, The Battalion. They kick off the new season by talking about how defeat can sometimes look a lot like victory and about Ian’s love of playing with toy soldiers. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...
