About this listen

It's a podcast about tanks. Do you want to listen to people talking about tanks? If so this is the podcast for you! World Wars, Cold Wars, modern tanks, we cover them all while drinking a lot of beer. Be warned though, we grapple with the politics behind the tanks, the economics, the industrial policies. Tanks are intensely political objects in both their creation and their use. So if you just want to hear dudes banging on about lethality, well, we've got dudes banging on anyway.Totally Tanked World

  • 72 - AMX-30 - When the going gets tough, the French get weird.
    Jul 19 2025

    The ancestor of all failed Franco-German military procurements the AMX-30 was a strange result of meeting the requirements of its moment precisely, while being birthed into a world that had changed from the time of its design.

    Despite seeming strange to us in 2025 it enjoyed a great deal of success in markets too odious for the Germans to sell Leopards to.

  • 71 - Matilda II Revisited - The Tortoise of War
    Jun 14 2025

    From Northern France to the gates of Moscow, to the jungles of the South Pacific one tank kept rumbling slowly on. A vastly superior sequel; the Matilda II was a true tortoise of war.

    This is our second episode featuring Matilda II as the expanded format of the current show made it worth coming back to.
