00:05:32 - Rangefinder differences?
00:14:01 - Why didn't the RN build up Alexandria more before WW2?
00:19:47 - What if the IJN got more use out of their IR-guided bomb project?
00:26:32 - Long tons, what the heck are they?

01:47:31 - Why did Haida leave her boat behind?
01:53:20 - Do you keep the mavericks at low ranks?
01:57:14 - What are some examples of doctrinal choices by the Axis navies in WW2 that were objectively better (i.e. more effective or more efficient) than equivalent choices in the Allied navies?
02:03:23 - What's the closest two ships have come to being exactly identical to each other?
02:04:56 - Wasn't Souchon's decision making in the Med very risky?
02:11:00 - Were the Japanese aware of the 25mm AA guns deficiencies?
02:16:55 - What was the last battleship/battlecruiser design that had a realistic chance of being completed, and what do you think of the design?
02:21:47 - Most obvious port facilities?
02:27:44 - Are missiles/drones a modern version of the Jeune Ecole?

02:45:27 - Did true bulkheads need iron ships?
02:50:08 - If either one of the 2 sides at Jutland had only battleships and battlecruisers with an all-forward gun layout, would that have changed their tactics in any way?
02:54:22 - Use of the heads in action?
02:57:07 - Kongo vs Von Spee?

03:21:32 - The world wonders: what do you think of the chances that this padding might have been seen as an insult by a radio operator who deliberately left it in when received, and possibly one who deliberately chose it when sending?
03:25:19 - What is it about the Alaskas that holds people's curiosity?
03:29:50 - How did the Ships of Hoods fleet help the allied ground forces during the defence of Toulon?
03:32:03 - How do anchors for large ships actually work?
03:35:43 - Can you describe what the Regia Marina was up to in the Far East in terms of operations and what battles did they participate in?
