Ok, yes, I know, I’ve already talked about the Cold War, just a few episodes ago, but I feel like I need to spend another episode talking about all the important things that happen in the late 1950’s and 1960’s as a part of the cold war, that I didn’... more

We talked last episode about the Communist Revolution in China, and apparently there was a two for one special on revolutions, because this episode also has a revolution, but this one is VERY different than what happened in China.

We were talking last episode about how the western allies tried to contain the spread of communism in Europe, but I mentioned that Communism was spreading in Asia as well.  This is about to be a problem in China, which, on the face of it, seems an un... more

    I agree with a previous review a interesting podcast. Best to keep it neutral and let the listener form their own opinions. Maybe use Native Americans instead of Indians.

  • Filtered History…

    Someone has an agenda here. States rights are all good and Federal government and the Biden administration is corrupt. I don’t need this guy telling me about history. His slanted views of it makes me question what’s emphasized and what’s left out. Thanks, but no thanks.
