From the comments:

World War Two
1 hour ago
We’re working our way through the intelligence services of this war, and as we do so we return to some favorite, terrible events of the early days of the war. Remember the Venlo Incident? It feels like a century ago that Indy covered it … Germany hadn’t even invaded the West. The Nazis and Soviets were in an alliance. It’s very meta; us covering the history of the history the we covered in the timeline when it happened.

And yet, it’s only three years ago, but boy has a lot happened since, so imagine what it felt like back then! Imagine having to rebuild a whole national intelligence service as the war has already begun … it’s a crazy war, and it just keeps getting crazier!
