  • Excellent history with technical flaws

    History podcasts are my preferred genre, this is one of the most comprehensive. Excellent analysis and insight. HOWEVER, the frequent coughs, sniffles and throat-clearing are really annoying. PLEASE get a cough button to mute those noises. Also, as others have mentioned, the laughter can be a bit grating. Those audio issues took this review down to 4 stars.

  • Essential listening. I've been tuning in to every sit rep on YT but I can't thank you enough for making the June 14 '25 one available via my audio podcast app, Justin. I retain the info so much better this way and it makes repeat listens easier too. Will still watch on YT or wherever but I really appreciate this. Hang in there.
