ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Cracking the Code

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

This week our hosts, Amelia and Sofia, spotlight Ms. Betty Allan, a World War II codebreaker whose work helped unlock critical intelligence during the war. We dive into the world of codebreaking, where individuals were recruited to decipher foreign military communications, and explore Betty’s role in analyzing Japanese signals. It’s a story of quiet impact, sharp minds, and the unseen work that shaped history behind the scenes.

This episode was brought to you from the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training. Thank you to our hosts, Amelia Wysoczanski and Sofia Lang, for leading the discussion.
