Boring, slow paced, pompous, self-indulgent, and lacking in depth. I was a big Mike Duncan fan and if you were too, this is not for you. Alexis Coe has little to offer and has an inflated sense of ego, in spite of contributing very little to the history zeitgeist. I’ve tried to listen to most episodes of their first season and my eyes continuously rolled so hard I had to shut it off for fear of one of them falling out of its socket. At time of writing they haven’t released an episode in a lo... more

Enjoyed the first season, despite some awkwardness (don't know if either have done a discussion show before). Hope to see a great second season!
Unlistenable self-indulgent ego stroking aimless conversation between two people who are more into in making themselves laugh than saying something interesting. Hopefully these two abandon this project & focus on the things they’re actually good at. I can’t say enough about how bad this show is.
I’ve listened to the Duncan & Coe for a while now, and it’s really good! Not as good as Duncan’s other podcasts (for example “The History of Rome”) and so I think everyone’s gotten a little spoiled, but this is interesting, not boring, and as respectful as can be to all people, and places. Definitely try it.
