American History is far more complicated than a yearlong High School class could ever teach you. This podcast will tell you the rest of that story, focusing on colonies you've never heard of, that may be at your front door, like New Netherland and New Sweden, New France, the Haudenosaunee and the lampooned "Articles of Confederation," that serve as footnotes in the history presented to you.

  • I am obsessed

    Even if you are remotely interested in history beyond the lacking details, you might’ve learned from formal education this podcast is for you. I’m not kidding when I say I’m obsessed. I’m very late to this party, but I’m glad because I have so many episodes to catch up on. Please never stop putting out new episodes.

  • I wanted to love this

    I really wanted to enjoy this history series, however the reading/diction of it drove me absolutely crazy. The bizarre sentence cadence and emphasizing the wrong parts of the phrases was just unbearable. I swear an AI bot would speak better. Too bad, i was really interested in the material.

  • Highly recommended

    If we could clone Eric and have him teaching American history in every high school in the US, we would have the most insightful, knowledgeable, and thought-filled young citizens in the world. This is a fantastic podcast.
