The Many Causes of World War I and Why It Was So Violent and Destructive - a podcast by Dry Toast and Dan Fondo

Today we lay out the many factors contributing to the outbreak of World War I and that caused it to be so devastating on a scale never before seen. Like a snowball rolling down a hill  (warning - lots of mixed metaphors coming) , the perfect storm of destruction and mayhem were inexorably building from every direction until finally the proverbial straw broke the camel's back and the guns of August let loose with a thunder that still rolls across the fields of Europe. The world was forever changed. Join me for an in-depth discussion on these events.
