Welcome to the latest episode of Londonist Out Loud, a podcast about London.
In the second world war some 40,000 tonnes of bombs were dropped on London. What was that like, and what effect did such a bombardment have on the population? We find out with this week's guest, Robert Fleming, manager of the Templer Study Centre.

Londonist Out Loud is presented and produced by N Quentin Woolf.
