Heston Aerodrome

[laughs] We need a schedule, so we know what dates to schedule the, the little get-togethers.

September 30th, 1938, Heston Aerodrome just west of London, England, Neville Chamberlain steps off the plane from Munich.

He is 69 years old, the newsreel cameras are rolling, and he reaches into his coat, and he pulls out a single sheet of paper, and he holds it up so the crowd can see it.

You've probably seen that newsreel.

Always slightly alarming when four other people meet to decide what's going to happen to your house.

Chamberlain lands at Heston Aerodrome, out west of London, and he's got a piece of paper.

The piece of paper.

He waves it at the crowd.

Yesterday's News is where we take 15 to 20 minutes to talk about the relevant news, hopefully weed through some of the distractions, help you stay focused, informed, a little less overwhelmed, maybe a little less time on your phone, social media, and a little bit more of your life back.

Wouldn't that be nice? On this day, September 30th, 1938, Neville Chamberlain stepped off a plane at Heston Aerodrome and held up a sheet of paper signed by Adolf Hitler.

It was a one-page declaration negotiated overnight in Munich in which Germany promised to settle its future disputes with Britain by consultation.

Chamberlain read it aloud to the cameras.
