    Oct 21 2024
    In this debut episode, we journey back to the final days of the Spanish Empire through the eyes of Lieutenant Martín Cerezo, one of the last soldiers of Baler. Sent to a remote village in the Philippines in 1898, Cerezo and his men believed they were on a routine mission. Instead, they found themselves trapped in a grueling siege that would test their endurance for 337 days. Isolated from the world, battling disease, hunger, and relentless enemy attacks, these young soldiers clung to duty, unaware that Spain had already lost the war. Discover the harrowing story of survival, courage, and a fading empire, as the Siege of Baler unfolds in a tale of resistance against overwhelming odds.
