Sounds like a rough reading of Wikipedia sources, interrupted by lame explanations of the obvious, unrelated asides, and poor jokes. Honestly, how can I care more than they do? 3 stars is generous.
This is my go to podcast recently. I went in just to learn a little bit more about the Vietnam war and I’m currently in a deep rabbit hole along with these guys. I honestly haven’t listened to anything but this show for weeks. Very easy listening. Very informative. Very extensive. I need to get over to this guy’s app and donate some money. I certainly owe him some at this point.
Great podcast!! Along with Dan Carlin. Mr Early is the best historian podcast I have found. All of his episodes are excellent and I
Highly recommend
