Über diesen Titel

 When real life stories have been kept secret for over 60 years, it’s difficult to coax them into existence. This episode introduces eight such stories and the challenges involved in uncovering them — from the male gatekeepers I had to traverse to inviting the women to share their stories, most of whom had not previously done so. We begin with Edie’s story, a young woman who worked for Service Zero, a large resistance cell in Belgium. Episodes include war-related content that some listeners may find disturbing and/or traumatizing.
