Ballyrush and Görtzen - The Spy Who Loved Us

Dropping knowledge bombs like the Luftwaffe did spies into Ireland during the war, today's story is about a spy who dropped into Ireland out of a Luftwaffe plane during the war. A German spy by the name of Hermann Görtz, stolen British intelligence plans, Luftwaffe uniforms, big chunks of cash, a code-breaking Irish librarian, Nazis teaming up with the RA to defeat the British, and that's just our last night out in Dublin. This episode is pretty interesting too to be fair. G'wan, have a listen.   Welcome to Season 2 of Shite Talk: An Irish History Podcast, we're back and we're better than ever. Not just a throwaway line, we've actually gone all out and hired a producer, Silent Dan. He's going to fix all of our audio, making sure this time around it's only the content that's shite.
