My name is Joshua Topolsky and I have a new podcast called What Future.

But I want to tell you that I'm being forced by my producer to record a promo telling you about my show.

And I'm not trying to force you to listen to it.

And maybe you're not interested in internet culture and the future of life on planet Earth.

And why John Carpenter movies are so good.

You may just want to listen to a podcast about, I don't know, sports or whatever Joe Rogan talks about.

And that's fine, you know, no judgment.

But if you like what you're hearing and I know that you do, you can listen to all of what future on the I Heart Radio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

The podcast and that's what you really missed brings you back to the choir room for a gloriously gleeky rewatch of all six masterfully musical seasons of Glee.

Join cast members Kevin MacKale and Jenna Uschkewitz for never before heard stories from the cast, crew, celebrities and you, the fans from McKinley High to New York City, from the choir room to nationals and from the Super Bowl to a world tour.

Listen to and that's what you really missed on the I Heart Radio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

Diversion audio.

A note. This episode contains descriptions of violence that may be disturbing for some audiences. Please take care in listening.

This series is based on historical characters and real events. Some dialogue has been imagined for dramatic purposes when no primary source material is available.

Virginia Hall's predicament was pressing a spy working for the Nazis she knew his father, a con real name Robert Aless had exposed her identity to the enemy.

Now she had to get out of France and into Spain and that meant an excruciating climb over 30 miles of tumultuous mountain terrain. It meant crossing the Pyrenees.

Well, it's a chain of mountains. It stretches from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean like it kind of belt. It's a very natural border between France and Spain. It's very wild.

That's Edward Sturton, a BBC broadcaster who made a commemorative trek across the Pyrenees some 70 years after Virginia Hall.

And gosh, it was brutal. I mean, it really, really was brutal. Some of it you're almost climbing. They put some guide ropes in so you can haul yourself up but just crumbling out rocks.

And it made you realize what it must have been like for the people who did that during the war.

After his trek, Sturton wrote a book called Cruel Crossing, escaping Hitler across the Pyrenees. About the people who fled occupied Europe via this mountain range during World War II.

I think that there is a strong sense that the memory of what happened then and the extraordinary heroism that people and generosity of spirit actually that people showed needs to be remembered.
