  • Nice and to the Point

    Just discovered this podcast looking for one just centered around battles & military conflicts. Glad to see a handful of series on medieval England/Scotland as that’s my main area of interest. Would love to see the 1st & 2nd Barons’ War get covered.

    I’ve gotten through “season 5” on the why wars happen and it honestly should be required listening. If I was a social studies teacher, I’d force my class to listen.
