I’ve been listening to Holly and Tracy for almost a decade now. Over the course of the past year, I’ve noticed an uptick in the number of ads during any given podcast episode. I can handle 2, maybe 3 minutes of ads - I get it: sponsors keep SYMIHC going, but in the past month, there have been roughly 300 seconds (5 minutes) of before-show ads.

I’m so sorry Ladies, the content is great and I love y... more
Why so many commercial breaks?! >xO
I enjoy the topics in this show and the hosts are great. Maybe the topics are a bit too woman focused but I’m okay with that. Unfortunately, I’ve noticed recently that ads seem to be taking up more and more of the total run time. I just listened to a show and it felt so filled with ads that I went back and did the math. Out of 44 total minutes more than half (22:30) were ads. The podcast simply isn’t good enough for a 50/50 split; I’m not sure any show is
My mom and I have been listening since, forever. We always laugh and learn something new. I love this podcast. Always a good one!
Listen to it every day! Just love the joy and light tone of Tracey and Holly.
Personal favourite moment is always the music at the intro tho!

Historically focused storytelling with a light, conversational vibe that blends deep dives into forgotten or overlooked moments with timely, modern context. Episodes cover broad historical themes—wars, revolutions, scientific developments, and cultural shifts—often framed through engaging narratives and sharp banter between two co-hosts. The show is known for accessible research, a warm host dynamic, and series like Unearthed that spotlight archaeological and archival finds, occasionally sparking discussion about bias, representation, and current events.
