- Could be good, but..
I think this show could be really good, however, the cadence of this guy’s speech is very distracting. It makes it hard to absorb what he’s saying.

I have found that Scott is offensive in the past, but the start of the Civil War is something that I am familiar with as a historian. His narrative is distorted going back to the tariff of abominations. He also makes it sound like North was responsible for the Civil War, which it was not, I would suggest that he read the de demon of unrest by Eric Larson if he wants a good read on the start of the Civil War.
Whenever Scott uses the term, Woke, I know he is speaking from ignorance. How he could ... more

This has been a favorite podcast to listen to with my children (and without). Most episodes are short enough for their attention spans, provide wonderful information on the church, and they are great conversation starters.

Thank you both for this work you’ve doing. This has become one of my favorite podcasts.
Apple Podcasts5Thunderrhodes465United Statesa year ago - Best Catholic History out there
I’m an avid fan of history, and particularly of Catholic history. I’ve looked around at other Catholic history podcasts, and the majority of them are rather lacking, either focusing on largely superficial details in the lives of the saints, or looking to figures that were only nominally Catholic. Not so with this podcast, where a simple glance at the episode titles will reveal how deep they truly delve. I cannot recommend this podcast enough, to be certain!
