United States9 months ago - I love these guys!
I found this podcast while searching for a different (not as good) one and I’m so glad I checked it out! They keep it interesting and funny and don’t go on and on. The episodes are a perfect length. If you don’t want to hear average, boring history, give this a try!
Apple Podcasts5daiwUnited States2 years ago - Brilliant
This should be on BBC1 on a Saturday evening instead of all those mindnumpingly trash they have on like “dancing on thin ice”.

I’m always on the lookout for a new history podcast, with preferably no loud American accents but a gentle British accent….Stumbled across Mikey who I honestly lost sight of after JJJ in the 1980s and here he is back in my life, making me smile while learning me. Hooray!
