The nitty gritty historical details woven with stories of power and revenge and achievement, told in a way that modern audiences can appreciate -- it's addictive, funny and fascinating all at the same time. The history buff in me is nerding out, while I'm also just appreciating your gift for storytelling. Thanks for creating my dream podcast!

  • History made fun

    It is so interesting to see the elites, the aristocracy, the kings and queens in such a light. As flawed, self-driven and often cruel people. If you are a fan of Robert Greene’s books, you’ll surely enjoy this podcast.
