In this four-part series from The Twin History Podcast, identical twins Joe and Johnny McCann two Black Scotsmen, one storyteller and one historian unpack the long, tangled causes of the First World War.

Join Joe, the eldest by thirteen minutes and the guy always asking why it matters, and Johnny, armed with the dates, facts, and receipts, as they trace the road from a single gunshot in Sarajevo through alliances, arms races, nationalism, and the fateful July Crisis of 1914.

This is the war you think you understand told a little differently.
