It was so interesting to learn about nz history and crime and it was layed out and presented well.
I have listened to all the episodes of the 8 series so far, with my kids. The usual question at the end is: “Why we don't learn about these people at school or university?”. And in my opinion, that is the best compliment you can have. You guys have helped me in opening their curiosity into the importance of history and the importance of critical thinking. Please keep going!
Very well put together, eery episode is worth the listen.
