Pearl Harbor: Missed Signals, Lessons Learned in WWII

Pearl Harbor: Missed Signals, Lessons Learned in WWII

History often whispers before it shouts. On December 7th, 1941, those whispers were present — faint signals, overlooked warnings, subtle cues that might have changed the course of a day. Yet they were missed.


In this episode, we return to the quiet hours before the attack on Pearl Harbor, not to relive the explosions, but to reflect on the signs that went unheard.


These moments remind us that history is shaped not only by what happens, but by what is overlooked.
