  • Opinion not history

    This podcast is the author’s opinion not true history. Several inaccuracies though out episodes.

  • History by Wokeness

    Many episodes are very interesting. Subjects are all chosen to be seen through the lens of identity politics and wokeness. No problem. But, to me, the test of the best history podcasts lies in objectivity. more

  • FAIL

    Olaidah Equiano was NOT born into slavery. Making such an obvious mistake is quite troubling. One of the main themes he narrates in his composition is his acculturation into European society after being kidnapped from his home in Africa. I have never given a one star review before and I truly despise doing so - but such a mistake for a “history”themed podcast is deserving of the poorest rating. This series is a hard pass for me!
