    I adore this show I found it 2 weeks ago and it’s really helped me find my love for learning and history back. I love being able to listen to a hilarious duo. This podcast is great for other people with dyslexia and adhd. Thank you so much for your wonderful podcast Mildred

  • Could be great!

    Can we get a version of this with the obnoxious dude edited out? Was so excited to see a podcast about Pamela Colman-Smith but could barely get through it. more

  • Very Enjoyable

    I love historical podcasts. I tend to really devour them. So far, I have really liked this podcast. Dr. Strange really seems to know what she’s talking about and I like that she admits when she is less familiar with a topic. Fans of Haunted Histories, Our Fake History, or Historical Blindness would probably enjoy this podcast as a lighter version of those offerings. I like the hosts chemistry, though they tend to come off pretentious at times. They feel like the same type of people I would’ve co... more

  • Love it!

    Fantastic podcast! It’s so difficult to find one that has the right mix of macabre and charm. Dr. Strange and Lou knock it out of the park every time! I love that it’s something other than true crime, and I live that there is plenty of Canadian content! I’m always excited for each episode because it’s going to either be something I’ve always been interested in, something I’ve always wanted to know more about or something I’ve never heard of and know will be riveted by!
