- How the modern Middle East was made
So interesting, I had no idea of this history, my sum knowledge was Laurence of Arabia and Gertrude bell, and a vague memory of the Iranian embassy siege, I hadn’t even appreciated the geography till the recent eruption in the gulf. I’m definitely buying the book.

United Kingdoma month ago - The Rise of the Offshore World
This quality of the podcast is becoming very poor. The episode on the Rise of the Offshore World is possibly the worst podcast I have ever listened to in my life. What was the point or conclusion of this episode? A 16 year old high school student who has studied elementary economics or history could have told me everything in this podcast. And yet you present it as though it’s some sort of revelation or a piece of ground breaking academic research?
Apple Podcasts1Alec Trevelyan (006)United Kingdoma month ago - Disappointed in the political direction of this show
I really used to enjoy this podcast but recently the hosts particularly Aimen have taken an extremely pro Israel pro America pro UAE stance. The discussions are now biased and one sided which is a real shame .
Apple Podcasts1Rayyan JamalUnited Kingdom2 months ago - Disgusting defence of Islamic slavery
Just horrid. Discussing slavery but only the parts where slaves had a better deal. Even then, never discussing the impact of castration. Just vile. Gutless. Cowardly. Sick…
Apple Podcasts1Jimini666United Kingdom2 months ago - Good except for it’s blind spot…
Such a pity Thomas has joined the ranks of those with Trump Derangement Syndrome. Just becoming like every other borecast now.
