  • Interesting podcast; very biased on Israel

    Lack of empathizing with the Palestinian situation considering the decades long occupation is disappointing from a history podcast

  • Good Podcast

    Buuuuuut, you should educate yourself on the Mike Brown situation; you used in your analogy. There’s a great documentary called, “Stranger Fruit”, that documents with pretty concrete evidence/video, that the whole Mike Brown “charging” at the cop were completely false. It was a narrative spun by the police union to frame Mike Brown in an unfriendly light. There’s the autopsy that shows he was stumbling around(not charging) when wilson dumped 6 rounds into him.

  • Great podcast from a history lover!

    Jumping from history, podcast to another history podcast, I came to meet Alexander, who, as I, is fan of Dan and Danielle. I started on episode one, and I am probably halfway through the episodes. Just fantastic! Thank you, Alexander!

  • Absolutely stunned

    For anyone with an interest in history who, like me, tends to see the Balkans as a messy place where everyone always is killing each other for no discernible reason, I highly recommend this podcast. more
