Reviews

5.0 out of 5 stars from 8 ratings
  • Engaging story

    Fascinating history of Iran, condensed out of necessity to the most recent 200 years. There is very little in the way of soundscape, music, sound track, or other aural effects. It’s simple a reading of text, executed very well. This is a low budget operation, but the simple approach is refreshing. I recommend this podcast.
