  • Amazing history even for a native Texan

    I stumbled across this series during a long drive to west Texas. I loved the in depth discussion of the different Apache tribes in Texas and how they got screwed over.

    After listing to the entire season 7, I started with Season 1. Wow! What an insightful exploration into the history of San Antonio and Texas.

    Love this series!

  • Firing on all cylinders

    Brandon is well read, insightful, and nuanced, and a lively history podcaster to boot. I’ve listened to 3 seasons (History of San Antonio, Battle of Medina, and Republic of the Rio Grande) and all three are excellent. I don’t know how Brandon has found time to amass all of this knowledge, but we’re the beneficiaries!
