As is sometimes the case with podcasts produced by the BBC, Witness World War 2 is a little less than captivating. Following the broadcaster’s age-old podcasting model, to inform first and entertain second, the show lends itself to those with a serious interest in the Second World War and is not for the fickle history prospector. If you happen to fit into that first category of listener, and your ears can accommodate the quaint British narration, then you’ll enjoy this one.
