I can’t keep up with all the podcasts that I subscribe, so I’ve always been doing catching up. When I listened to last year’s episodes talking about the Abbasid dynasty a couple weeks ago, I loved it so much that I’ve been listening to this podcast ever since, trying to catch up to date. I truly enjoy listening to Echoes of History!
