- Best History Podcast
This is by far the most thrilling and exciting way to listen to history.
Apple Podcasts5@LibMike_Rants
United States2 days ago A very good history podcast. Well researched and presented. One major flaw, though is the narrators desire to adopt an accent when quoting. His poor and very distracting attempts to act as a french or german, speaking heavily accented english has led me to turn off the show more than once. If you can ignore this, then it is very enjoyable
Podcast Addict42 days agoAngeleyes666- Love the accents
I don’t know why people are hating on him because of the accents I think there great and bring the characters to life.
Apple Podcasts5Ollie 1wUnited States6 days ago - Stop the accents please
I love this podcast, the storytelling is compelling and informative! But can you please stop the accents? The German ones are especially awful. And it seems silly to speak in an accent when these historical figures wouldn’t have had such goofy accents when speaking in their native tongue. It minimizes the words of any non-English figures and pulls me out of the story every time.
Apple Podcasts4cytgirlUnited States15 days ago - The podcast name should be The Best History Podcast!
The episodes are interesting to follow with excellent narration. History told with timelines and host’s special flair for spotlighting dramatic events and people’s lives that intersect.
