The Iraq war
As a hobby historian, I love this podcast. Great story telling by James, and the topics are always exciting. I always learn something new during every episode. This has been, and will continue to be my go to podcast.
I enjoy this series very much. I have also listened to the key battles of World War One. It is informative yet light enough to listen to on a long commute. James and Scott make the listen enjoyable.
