- Wonderful!!!
Genuinely interesting stories from history. I’m truly amazed that some of this was not part of the curriculum that I had, especially considering some of the things I was taught. Perfect length for short bits of time you may need to make things more interesting. And if I listen while in bed no jarring voice or advertisement. Thank you for sharing!

Apple Podcasts1raven1537United States4 years ago - History with a political bias.

But claiming to be a history podcast just so you can broadcast your political opinion is simply false advertisement and honestly, tacky. So for that, I cannot recommend this podcast. (Rating of 5 st... more

I had to unsubscribe based on the hosts personal opinions. I find that most history podcasts are better when the hosts spend more time on history and less on personal political opinions.
