  • Making History Fun

    I’ve never been a history buff, I found it hard to get into and pay attention. But I’ve always wanted to be THAT person that was able to spurt out history facts at parties.

    This show is making history interesting. The hosts are just the cats pajamas.

  • Awesome show

    You two should do an episode on the Spanish Civil War! Tons of interesting stuff to unpack — social movements, politics, ideologies and lots of great characters. (The battles and strategies are def on the back burner.)

  • Too short

    I’m new to the show and I like it but I think the episodes are way too short. I feel like there’s too much meat left on the bone with many of the stories.
