I just discovered this podcast, and I am obsessed! I teach world history, and my knowledge has greatly expanded because of this podcast. I especially loved the scramble for Africa podcast because I am teaching that topic this week. I 100% recommend this podcast for any history teachers and lovers of history!
I love the attention to detail and he keeps you captivated thru while episodes. I’ve listened to each episode twice. Thank you

Love his content!
